All the hype were giving the team and manager, when realistically we are not very good at all, can't defend for shit, yes we're scoring goals for a change but not keeping clean sheets at all.
Yet another relegation battle looms again sorry.

We certainly won't be there or thereabout come january playing like this.
Every side we have played so far have closed us down quickly...and turn us over.
We need more urgency out of 10 players not 3 or4 at a time

Hundread times better then last season, every game we get a bit better. If we took more of our chances we could of been 4 nil up.
We actualy play some good football at times now, its just alot of dumb goals conceeded. Leeds, Leicester and now 2 at Ipswich.
I am disapointed at our home performance though, QPR we never woke up till 60th minute and we let Sheff Weds back in.
I hope we get a decent mid table, safe from any relagation battle. Theres deffo a part of the time thats are still slow which could take a season to change or move them out.

Exactly, totally agree

I reckon this is the beginning of something good under Erol.. loads of games to go, and it’s a new team.
Gotta give it time..

Correct.
Not a chance we'll be in a relegation battle.

We're a better outfit than we were last season no doubt about that. We've got much better ball players, more pace and energy throughout the squad. The way we move the ball quickly and precisely on the break and transition has been exciting and i think we'll have no problem scoring goals.
BUT and its a big but we do look vulnerable at the back. I think we lack a leader and a big character at the heart of the defence. We're missing a Bamba, Hudson, Morrison sort of player that when pressure comes they take control and lead by example. I dont see those attributes in mcguinness or Goutas. Lets hope Panzo has it in him.

Millions times better than last season and will get there. So of our fans seem dead set on living in misery, I’d go as far to say some were smiling when we went one down to jump on social media to gloat and moan.
Sat Sep 02, 2023 6:31 pm
Although I’m disappointed, I thought we actually looked a good team first half. We just need a better striker than Meite up front. I really hope Bulut learns from all this tinkering, and has a more settled side in mind.
Sat Sep 02, 2023 6:38 pm
Team is a lot better than some of its fans.
Knee Jerkers and Doom mongering folk.
Let's just pretend we aren't still learning as a new team eh
More positives than negatives being shown at moment, once we hit our targets and get our rhythm we will be fine
Sat Sep 02, 2023 6:46 pm
I dont think that we are going to get promoted this season but in my opinion there has been a drastic change in the playing staff and I am confident that we will not be battling relegation like last season.
That is an improvement
We have built well in this transfer window and, in January, we will be able to spend money and improve furthermore.
This transfer window we have set a base. In the next window we can add another layer to that base
We are going in the right direction.

Same fans that would rinse Tan were he to sack Bulut

I think we're close to being a decent side at this level. Need to work on defensive duties obviously.
Need to beat the Jacks, big match for both clubs

We will be unless we can stop letting in an average of two goals per game.

Bulet needs to find his best team. We are desperate for a proper striker. Meite has now missed three absolute sitters. We haven't had a proper striker for years.
Are there any free agents out there?

Exactly, I am struggling to understand why reading fans rated him at all. He needs finishing training over this international break if he is to start again.

Meite just needs a goal to get going.
If you can’t see that his overall play elevates us in attack then you’re blind

Unfortunately like Mark Harris before him a striker will always be judged by the amount of goals he scores.
Meite has had three golden opportunities to score this season has has not looked remotely like scoring any of them.
May be a confidence issue and perhaps if one bounces in off his arse he'll turn into a 20 goal a season striker but I won't hold my breath.
Certainly contributes a lot more upfront than Ugbo but one of them has three goals already this season and the other looks like he'd struggle to hit a cow's arse with a banjo.

Even though I rated Harris, Meite offers more both technically and physically.
Either way, Robinson seems to have been forgotten by some on here and provided he gets fit I presume that he’ll be filling that role
Sat Sep 02, 2023 9:18 pm
We're not far off.
2 weeks off now to work on it.
I hope to see an improvement. Confidence in these coaches and the manager.
Ten games and I'll judge
