Quite right. I'm not hammering Potter as there is text evidence I sent 'pretty excited by that lineup' at 16.35 on Saturday. What transpired though looked Hughton-2019. So I can only comment in hindsight. It didn't quite work or click. Trying to capture the last 20 mins at West Ham, and deal...

There is never a right answer when things aren't going well. Last season sticking to our game plan and largely same selections was seen as a weakness. This season in a bad spell, keep experimenting, changing selections and tactics is seen as a weakness. We can't have it both ways. My personal...

Yeah, I'm not saying Webster is perfect or mistake free. It's the kind of chance we are giving away this season. Webster missed that because we gave the ball away cheaply in possession and he was caught out - was it Propper played it blind square?

Can't disagree with that (your point, not saying mine was a good post :smile:), and given I'm going to West Ham in one of my limited away games this season, I won't be upset if that happens. Having Duffy to step in is a real strength in that department. It's one area we don't lack top quality cover.

It was actually the home game against Bournemouth where it really hit me. Duffy too late spotted a Bournemouth break in the first half on their left, went charging out, missed everything and everyone and was left stood by our dugout while they broke and had a clear chance, maybe the kind of...

I don't profess to have the answers. I just know blaming Webster and believing Duffy is a solution is not actually solving a more complex set of issues through the side. It's more about belief than it is personnel. Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with Duffy starting next game, but neither...

I would say I dont know. :shrug: I have to assume/believe Potter and his staff have very good reasons/stats etc. for why Webster is ahead of Duffy. If Duffy lines up against West Ham, good for him for getting his chance back, but I don't see that move as a sudden plug for why we're conceding...

Waves of pressure that is not resulting in goals which is leaving us open to counter attacks and teams basically setting up to absorb pressure then pounce on our mistakes. If we keep losing the ball while applying pressure ahead of the ball, then we are going to be exposed - the Villa equaliser...

Can I just say this time last season with D&D in the team, and us set up more defensively we'd conceded 2 more goals after 24 games. We're playing a more open, attacking game, which is what everyone wanted AND we have actually conceded less. Yeah, we went away to Bournemouth and it seems it's...
