There hasn’t been a massive fight behind the scenes.
The players aren’t on ‘holiday’
The players aren’t ‘trying less’
It is not the ‘beginning of the end for Poch’ and I’m pretty sure he will have tried to light a fire under the players.

We are simply bang out of form right now, confidence knocked by some bad results, look jaded because of it and have gone through that classic match where your luck begins to turn, you pepper a goal and somehow lose 1-0 ( WBA ).

It’s not easy to just switch it all back on, especially with injuries in key areas. Those things above infect a team and cause the type of performance we are seeing just now. Every team has periods like this bar a very very select few.

We just need to find a way, most likely in a scrappy ugly fashion but anyway will do right now
Sorry mate, I want to agree, but I think there's more to it. It's just too much of a capitulation.

The only positive is that we rarely seem to play 2 halves the same and since we have been so shit this half we must be better 2nd half

The worst thing is that we know that Poch probably won’t make a change until the 65-70 minute

I will be disappointed if Poch does not come out in the second half on crutches, having broken his ankle shoving his boot up someone's backside at halftime.

You can always tell when we are going to

A) play well
B) play shitty

At the start of matches. Since Chelsea it has been B all the way.

It's been a while since I've been so pissed off watching us play. Absolutely painful.
