This season in the PL

13 goals conceded in the first 11 games
23 goals conceded in the second 11 games


Add to that:
5 clean sheets in the first 11 league games
0 clean sheets in the next 11 league games

PS Doucoure got injured in the 13th league game but we had shipped 3 goals against Everton in the 12th league game.

Doucoure didn't play against Everton which adds further strength to your argument

the club showed loyalty to Benteke and Luka Milivojevic when both were clearly holding us back.

i suspect we are not sufficiently ruthless with mediocre players.

the statistics for who is on the pitch , when we f...ck up are all there to see. Some of our midfielders & defenders are clearly not up to the job.

in my opinion, there is much vitriol thrown at Roy, and not enough thrown at the fellas on the pitch. We seem to be very adept at conceding an early goal.

If a manager sets a team up to defend then the opposition are likely to get first crack at a sight of goal and more often that not will end up scoring the first goal.

That's two home league games in a row where we've conceded in the first 2 minutes to add to the fact that we conceded the first goal last calendar year more times than any other PL team.

Yes, the players are the ones on the pitch but it's the manager who gives them their instructions. So either they're not listening or he's not giving the right instructions.

if some of you grandads wish to reminisce about 'da good old days' while supping a pint of mild, and polishing your dentures with a shammy , could yis all feckoff and do it elsewhere.

Cannon and Gilbert for me - neither got the the International recognition they deserved..!!

They also had two very good fullbacks in King Ken and Doris..!!

What would they be worth in todays mad market..!!

Gilly along with Murphy were personal faves of mine in the heralded team of the 80’s under Tel..!!

It was said at the time Billy Gilbert was the best English centre back around at the time not to get an England cap

we kept a clean sheet for 20 seconds against Sheffield, at Selhurst.

today ? two minutes and thirty seconds.


And before you blame Roy, what feckers are on the pitch and not worthy of wearing that shirt ?

3:35 pm Edit.... 3-0 ..... dogsh1.t

What |I'd give to see him in our team today . I remember him being a bit of a lad , probably not what England were too keen on in them days

 


And we still need a striker

We are in a bad place atm 11 goals conceded in 3 games. Roy’s organisational nouse is deserting him now.

Past tense probably more appropriate. We haven’t defended well for some time and we’ve been terrible at defending set pieces for even longer.

That particular problem predates Roy. We were terrible from corners under PV as well. Roy hasn't been able to fix it.
