JT baby! Let's go! Edit: Big win for us!

Not even close to the disaster that you were on the field Ross...bum

Oh really? Nice! I was hoping they would do this!

I know it is a simple play but in recent times most of our players would never make the pass the Hogan made to set up the 4th goal. They'd always take the shot themselves. To me, that is a really good sign of teamwork.

I used to mostly post during games but I can't watch any given that I'm in the US. Had to know the forums would get quieter while we are in the championship. I still come here, but just mostly lurk to stay in the loop. Be sad if this place shuts down but completely understand if it is a $$$ sink.

This place is quiet when we win :)

Where is the drive? Yards of space and they are scared to run with the ball.

I remember hearing groaning about our ugly wins pretty much during all of Lambert's tenure aside from when we pulled a big upset like against City or whatever.

Under new ownership, never say never

From the outside looking in, the answer is: We have no identity or culture as a club. The only time we win or score, it usually comes off of the back of individual play rather than team play. So why did we bring in Bruce? Because he is proven at this level. However, he has done it with much smaller clubs who have less expectations and players who identify with the club they play for. Also, we all knew how he sets up his teams so why are we surprised that we are in ugly games? It's the same issue we had with Lambert. This style of play will make you hard to beat and get results but it is also hardly inspiring and if anything goes wrong you can almost write off the game completely.

Ayew only, to be honest.

Wonder if there is any correlation between the return of these old members and our current losing streak? Hmm..

Sure we probably wish we dispatched them in a better fashion but once again...these results are great confidence builders for the team. Sucks to see the injuries but hopefully Amavi gets a chance going forward.

R.I.P. the stream dream, maybe next week.

Counter attacking football can be very fun to watch, we just flat out need to execute our breaks much better. I feel we definitely have the players to do it.
