I think people just need to see The Big Picture here - this season is going To Be Continued and now isn't the time for Breaking Hearts.

Etc. etc.

Agree entirely !

There really shouldn't be any further starts for either Bruno or Glenn other than in desperation.GM can no longer start as a lone striker and Bruno is going to get skinned more and more like I might well be flamed!

We need to get younger players involved if we ever want to progress !

On the non-Murray points, I agree. Everyone with sense knew that last season. Pace at FB and in forwards/wingers/AM is an attacking prerequisite in the PL.

BBC1 right now explaining the PACE AND POWER of Schlupp, Van Aanholt, Zaha and others, is giving them the edge over Fulham.

It really is the way for non-top 6 teams to really prosper in the PL. We've had 3 transfer windows to get there.

Hopefully CH goes for that in team selection in games 2 to 38.

Sounds like CH set us up to get a point they scored and we were basically then up the creek without a paddle. Need to be set up more offensively against teams that will be around us. Poor game to lose

I’m listening. I agree that our pre season could have been a little more competitive, but we stayed up last season, an accomplishment. The new players are obviously not ready otherwise the manager would be playing them.
If we haven’t got a point after five games fair enough, but first game of the season? Come on give them a break.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! Please, unless you’re fishing, just SHUT THE **** UP! This is the PL, we are playing Watford not Barca. It’s not ok to be this poor regardless of it being the first game. Get some balls man, we’re at war not serving cream teas. FFS! :censored::guns:

No bed wetting from me, but 4 mins injury time just adds to my lost couple of hours of sleep. Please learn from this Chris.

final whistle approaches and I have a question ......

have the Albion team actually got off the bus yet ?

looks like they are about 6 weeks behind in training at least ... so much for a better pressing game , sadly that can only work when you know how to get past the opponents press which we dont seem to have a clue
