I think we’ll finish 2nd

I expected it to be close at the end. Still think it will be. I think we’ll finish 2nd by a point or two. Everyone who knows this league (including Lampard) have been saying it will all tighten up, including during our run at the top.

Why aren’t they above us?? We’re talking about them like they’re global powers. The absolute facts are that we have more points than both. So I don’t really care if they’ve had a point a game over 13 games or whatever. Over the games played so far we’ve got more than them

Look through the league. Every team will have had a similar phase. That’s why we are top of the league. It is inevitable in this division.

Not sure what your point is. We’re top of the league. Did you expect we’d just walk it by 20-30 points?

Esse at least has a bit of confidence about him when we are freezing a bit. Obviously gives us depth and options. As others have said - he’s not really our biggest issue at the moment.

Then you are very naive.

Our strikers are generally fine. Both have areas that could be improved but in the championship they are both ok. Our goals score column suggests that end of the pitch is not really the issue

“Unacceptable”. What utter garbage.

So you don’t think we’re “capable” of beating Oxford?

My point is a phase like this was inevitable. As was the reaction to it. Didn’t expect people to be pleased but a bit of realistic thinking is needed. Not sure it’s relegation form either.

Well we really need to get a grip here. Early Feb. We’re top. We are capable of beating any team in the league.

I agree with the OP. The response would be toxic. We know that because of what is happening at the moment. 13 point lead or not, it’s very rare anyone just breezes through a championship season. It’s probably the most competitive league there is. We built a lead. We’ve been drawn back to the...

Difficult game wasn’t it. Just needed something to break for us early but the longer it went on the more we seemed to tighten up.

I agree actually. Esse and is a show pony. We didn’t need him. And his attitude is not likeable. We should have gone all out for a left back.

No. When he took the job. You know, from when he took over? It’s not difficult

No. Late 70’s. You?

He would. Easily. He’s taken a struggling 17th placed champ team to promotion contention. It’s a seismic achievement if you can set aside the infantile bed shitting.
