More hits than The Beatles.
Makes you wonder how we have only 1 point from a possible 15!!

We thought that we had the answers, It was the questions we had wrong.

Its unlike Nick to be super optimistic. Reading that you would think we are top of the league.

My take is :-
Hit
Ramsdale, Suguwara, Fernandes, Lallana

Ok
THB, Downes. - Struggled to get up to speed
Charlie Taylor - Looked Solid in his 1 league start.
Ugochukwu - started off well against man u, but faded badly

Miss
Wood, Edwards - Not seen Enough yet
Fraser - Not good enough for the leauge
Diaz /Archer/Cornet - Wont solve the scoring issues

Poll: Has the Ross Stewart deal already paid off as Nick says?

That's definitely a more a realistic take on the players Butty.
Hopefully one of the attackers will prove us wrong.

Isnt this pretty much what I said about the players, other than I predicted that those in your OK mode would step up a gear

The ones you say are miss's I have basically said they have not played enough games so the jury is out.

Ramsdale, Fernandes,

Ok
Lallana wont be fit enough to make a difference
Downes. - Still making mistakes but solid
Charlie Taylor - Looked ok before being dropped.
Archer - might just score more than mara

Miss
THB - made a lot of errors, latest faults against Bournemouth then slow again for Arsenals first.
Wood, Edwards - Not seen Enough yet
Fraser - Not good enough for the league
Diaz /Cornet - Not good enough
Ugochukwu - awful send him back

Seems fair.

Think i'd have Charlie Taylor and Archer in the OK/not seen enough category. Archer has shown more good moments than most.

And, this is controversial, I'm really not sure how good Fernades is. But no less than OK.

Sugawara's bubble has properly burst.

My problem with Archer, is that he dosent work the centre half’s at all. He has scored some good goals. But then his penalty miss was very costly

Archer needs balls to run on to.
That is the problem.
I believe he can finish it’s just the supply.

We should look to sell Sugawara this month if we can.

He is horrendously bad.

He also has the weirdest tackling style I have ever seen.

Goes to ground about a second before the ball is anywhere near him. Bizarre.

What is concerning is so few players improve while playing for us. Of course we have bought some players not good enough but there is now too many not to be concerned that we have big problems with our training techniques and fitness.
What’s happened to our academy,where’s our young prospects?
We keep going on about players failings when we should be addressing our problems off the pitch.

Spot on Grumps.
RM's method of being best mates with everyone has created a lazy mentality at the club.
But blame SR they appointed RM & kept him well past his expiry date.
None of our players have been physically or mentally fit enough for the Premier lge.
Added to the fact that they are not good enough is why where we are now.
It's a fact that you can make up for lack of quality by being fitter & more energetic than the opposition.
As for the Academy why do we spend millions on running the academy if its not producing young talent.
It's like any other business if the expenditure is greater than the income then it will fail.
