Some good posts on the Match Posts page.

RA has one trick and when it doesn't work there is nowhere to go. To lose at home to 10 man Everton and then to huff and puff against a poor West Ham team is pretty horrible, the win against Palace masks our current form but they were knackered, a fact acknowledged by both Managers.

The fact so many teams are inconsistent this year is keeping us mid table, we have improved but we are still horrible to watch and unconvincing.

RA's treatment of Mainoo is criminal. Kobe was a rising star, one of our stand out players, scored the winner in the Cup final, and broke into the England team, and yet he can't get into our poor performing team. RA has made his mind up, instead of polishing the diamond, he leaves him on the bench all the time, and sadly, some fans have bought into this bizarre narrative.

The Manager needs to motivate the team, but the lack of energy and urgency we see in games is alarming.

Lovely guy, out of his depth, no tactical nous, no ability to influence games, unable to motivate players, that's what I see.

I hate watching us, I have no confidence we will win any game, its all very depressing. And RA has done nothing to suggest he can change things.

“I hate watching us”, i can't echo this enough, this is not a sophisticated take or a tactical take but i can't agree enough.

We make the game of football look really hard lol, there is very little flow or feel about the way we play.

If we lose against Wolves on Monday and give them their first win of the season, we are firmly back at square one and the pressure will be back on Amorim.

It is a horrible watch and I don't see it getting better. The most pivotal attacking roles in this system falls to Dalot and Dorgu and whatever mediocre wing back is played.

Is there any actual pressure on Amorim though dsg? Maybe from fans and the media but by all accounts the owners are content with him and have no intention of removing him. Love to know what statistics or data they are seeing that the rest of us arent.

Tim

I hear social media is alive with rumour the Glazers want Amorim out whilst SjR and co don’t, yet.

Great, so basically our ownership model is convoluted and indecisive. If true obviously!
