it's taken us 8 games to get 1 point so in 24 games time we might have closed the gap a little bit
 
Can't really argue with the stats, terrifying really, and yet we are still (theoretically at least) only 4 points from climbing out of the relegation zone.

I was against sacking PH, but the fact that we are still in touch, could be the reason that a new guy would come in, despite how poorly we have been playing.
 
Down side is we look fragile

But confidence can’t be underestimated in sport

We get the win at spuds we dont lose 0-8 and we get a point today

Up side is any team in bottom 6 put back to back wins together confidence spirals and as has been said,we’re not cut adrift… yet

November we have wolves Brighton and Bournemouth, long as others keep losing we’re in touch
 
Yep we are so easy to attack. If we were particularly open because were attacking all the time maybe it would be acceptable.

How many shots have we had?!
 
I mentioned this after 3 games and got crucified.

But your 100% correct.
 



We have conceded the highest amount of shots per game in europe ( Prem, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Serie A)

We’ve made the most amount of saves in the premier league with 45, 2nd is Bournemouth with 36. Also the highest saves per game in europe.

We’ve had the lowest shot count in the premier league of 71 (luton have 102) and the 4th lowest shot per game in europe (8.9)

Not great reading !
 
176 shots conceded and only let in 22 goals, It just puts it in perspective how well foderingham is playing
Had this thought.

Heard plenty saying he wasn't good enough for this league and I thought he had earned his place to see how he faired in this league. I think he's done alright considering. I mean dont get me wrong we've got issues, relegation issues, he's somewhat instrumental but in the grand scheme of things he's a tambourine in an orchestra

Love the positivity that's the spirit
There is nothing to be positive about, we are miles away from being competitive let alone good enough, all the fans who are thinking we are, are seeing things through red and white tinted glasses, if we were playing a team next week who had just shipped 8 at home and lost 7 from 8 we would all be expecting a win , and that's how everyone sees us and rightly so

That’s tongue in cheek right - some of his decision making is frightening and his distribution jeez
Shot stopper yep but also look at poor finishing which Newcastle didn’t have a problem with but everyone else thankfully has ( including Palace )

We won't land a glove on Brighton in current form ffs

Doesn’t say much for the defensive coach ☹️

Can't you mend Bash's ankle with your positive thinking Uri?
 
Might be a tad misleading this one. Could be that we're just allowing a lot of low percentage shots compared to clear cut chances. Those 22 shots per game generated just under 23 xGa, compare that with Fulham, who with the same number of games played are allowing 11.5 shots per game (I am using whoscored for that figure, if only because it matches the count the OP used), but are up at over 15 xGa, so the shots they do allow are typically better chances than those we do

Sure, we could definitely do with cutting down the volume, don't disagree with that, but that's probably more easily done by improving ball retention and possession, rather than changing anything fundamentally defensively. You WANT the opposition to shoot from positions where, if we had the ball at the other end, half the Kop would be shouting "shoooooooooooooot", you want quality over quantity.

Other than that it’s been a pretty encouraging start to the season!
