I can't remember when we truly played well generally.

Almost every game our system gifted spaces on the wing and chances that are easier to put away.

Hope Ange evolves the system fast . We can't play kamikaze football every week.
Didn't you get the memo? Ange's style of football is the most wonderfully exciting thing you will ever see in your life - so much better than that sh!t served up by Conte that could only get us 4th place.

I don’t really understand it either. Especially since he’s not even had a full season to implement his plan A, which was already a radical departure from the football we had been trying to play during the last four years.

Personally I’d rather take some pain now in the interest of implementing a proper footballing philosophy long term, as opposed to chopping and changing and having no identity.
He's not even had the season since the continental cups and the injuries have meant we've not been consistent since the start of the season - at which point we were really good. People could argue we've been figured out but I think that's too reductive.

We started off the season so well. What on earth has gone wrong. Have we simply been found out tactics wise? We have the players ostensibly.
The press was relentless. It clearly is no longer that. A drop off in the first season is an Ange team trait I believe. Just going on what I've read from others. Seems to be repeating is all.

It was too easy for Wolves in the end. It's not a good situation when you know the opposition can really frustrate and negate you by just sitting men behind the ball, but also whilst knowing that because we leave ourselves so open, they can still do damage up the other end.

Crazy how many few chances we created. Also, whether it was unlucky or not, so much breaks down through Richarlison for one reason or another.

Judging from some of the comments in here, we’ve been found out, Ange thinks he’s at Celtic, we’ve been nicking results and we aren’t very good, oh and we should change how we play.

It seems that Ange Postecoglou is the Keyser Soze of football managers 😁

It's got two more points and two less defeats than the wiggy fraud had this time last year.

I keep expecting for Ange to put things right but it isn't happening, in 2 weeks I'm expecting our encore to this match ie; more of the same.

Hats off to Wolves. Defensive and counter attacking masterclass.

Terrible loss for us and have to stew on it for two weeks now.

Bissouma a shadow of the player he was at the start of the season. Poor.

I'm going to call a spade a spade.

Our system is "exciting" but technically we are playing with only two defenders! Half the time our fullbacks are floating in the 8/10 positions. So it's 2/5/3 most of the times.

It's easier to crave a chance against us rather than Sheffield United!

Will be a long long time before we see back to back clean sheets.

We’ve only kept one clean sheet in the PL since 23rd October. That’s ridiculous.

Schooled by O'Neill with Bournemouth and now Wolves. As soon as I heard Porro/Udogie were out I sensed we were there for the taking.

Started the season on such a high now the low is being found out tactically. Also Maddison's form is dipping alarmingly. Neto what a player if the Goons get him over us then the gap gets worse.

Thanks Spurs for ruining my weekend knowing there is no match next weekend crap! 🤬

Luton away first half until Bissouma got sent off. Chelsea at home before Romero sending off and penalty. United away. United at home.

The way we are set up we are going to concede space on the break if we are sloppy, that is the risk and Ange knows it. It's why we have a speedy CB in VDV to cover.

Will he tweak it? Who knows but he hasn't yet so I doubt he will.
