To me, the ONLY downside to this season (Apart from no fans of course)
is simple; we've lost 4 times to the two most boring teams, scoring no
goals in those 360 minutes.
The way Wolves and Brighton set up and play, isn't unattractive and is
very much based on possession - But they both, ultimately, want to try
and walk it into the net ala Barcelona under Pep. Against teams like
this, we clearly struggle (Both will finish below us in the League). MB
will, I'm sure, be aware of this and, hopefully address next season.
Genuinely not bothered about the drubbing at Old Trafford or MOST of the
defeats this season, other than those 4. Those 12 points would have put
us 5th, 1 point behind Leicester!
Mind you, I (personally) don't want European football yet. If we did I
think we'd suffer in the same way Wolves have done by overachieving a
bit too soon, without having the ability to bolster the squad in
preparation for the 'rigours of success'
Anyway, enough of my bollocks, off back to lurkdom! TTFN

Yes I would agree with that. But to point out poor performances from
players is OK I think as long as it it is reasonable (in tone I mean.)
Though TBH Michael Brown was effin shit....
I think it's actually quite rare - this season at least - to be able to
spot an individually poor performance that cost us the match. Meslier's
fuckups at Arsenal (which he's not repeated), and Alioski giving away
the
penalty against Brighton stand out*. But it's usually been a collective
issue - we've sat too deep and isolated Bamford, for example; or
Alioski
and Harrison haven't combined well in attack.
