Feels like our confidence has taken a nosedive since the end of that Spurs game. Not been the same team since then.

 

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Gotta make changes at half time. Trusty on for Egan, Norwood on for Souza

 

[Davalon]

I was delighted with the Hamer signing but he's given the ball away for fun the last two games, and carelessly and needlessly so.

 

[Hamandcheese]

It's worrying that minus Baldock, this is basically our strongest line up

 

[Melton Blade]

We can't carry Hamer & McAtee together. Neither can win the ball....

 

[The Crab]

Well, so much for a reaction…..

 

[Seth Rollins]

Surely Hecky has to be sacked now??

 

[ATL Recs]

Yes parking the bus effectively riding your luck stopped in added time - at Spurs

 

[Champagneblade]

That's a corner

It’s the little things each time isn’t it?

Bogle offside when he isn’t. They score.

Corner for us, possibility to attack. Back defending.

We still need to be far better but all these little things add up.

But the overriding factor is that we are far too unprofessional and casual.

Hamer should be ashamed of himself blindly passing behind himself. Idiot.

Disappointed with Archer too. He’s an absolute passenger.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Bogle out of position fucking defend ffs

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Surely Hecky has to be sacked now??

Not heckys fault

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Surely Hecky has to be sacked now??

Who u bringing in?

 

[Berkshire Blade]

It would be madness not to try and change things. Heckys days are numbered

 

[sheff_blade90]

what are we doing in the week on training ground. defensively. because currently we have gone from solid to hopeless in a month. the old adage you give quality players time & they will punish you

i love Hecky but sport is ruthless & it wouldn't surprise me. look at ranieri won the title & was sacked by november. we cannot to be continue to be this bad defensively

 

[Davalon]

Surely Hecky has to be sacked now??

I'd sack De Zerbi too.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Not going good for BLADES. 2 nil down. Hatters 2 nil up away @ Everton and Wolves leading Man City

 

[Blade56]

Our players are standing in their formation positions while WH players use the spaces in between, metres of space around every WH player

 

[Half Bond Jls]

Don't know what to say. Painful. Have a go back ffs.

 

[HarryHaslam]

If Hamer hadn’t scored a couple we’d all be thinking he’s a dud. Souza, well he does look a dud. I’ve no confident in any of our signings tbh so far, scouting dept needs demolishing and starting again.

 

[GKhantRebel]

My stream has tony west ham gale as co comm. Like listening to nigel pearson comm on a pig game. Apparently that accidental handball by thomas was a clear pen!

Head-wrecking bias! I was trying to find somewhere without him commentating and just moved on to another option only to see the almost comical pass from Hamer for the second!!

 

[71Blade]

Our passing into space or to feet is awful

 

[Espania blade]

Confidence has gone, you can how frightened they are of conceding more goals. Maybe Norwood for Mcatee at half time

 

[Davalon]

Head-wrecking bias! I was trying to find somewhere without him commentating and just moved on to another option only to see the almost comical pass from Hamer for the second!!

I don't think he's been too bad considering.

 

[TomHeffernan]

Sorry but we are utterly clueless. We have no style of play at all. Under Wilder, even when we were shit we had a style of play, an identity. I have no idea what this is at all.

Get Wilder back please ASAP

 

[Nedski]

Choosing Mcatee over Doyle was an awful decision. Mcatee nowhere near ready for the premier league. Doyle might not be either but he would've been a lot more solid in midfield

 

[VLYDONIMIR]

Any Managers looking at their last match in charge today?

 

[shrubbery]

What the fuck was Hamer thinking!! Blind pass sideways when he’s the deepest midfielder! It’s schoolboy stuff.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Sorry but we are utterly clueless. We have no style of play at all. Under Wilder, even when we were shit we had a style of play, an identity. I have no idea what this is at all.

Get Wilder back please ASAP

Last few games of Wilder weren’t much better

 

[YES Blade]

How you can lose 8-0 then only make one change I don’t know! I understand we haven’t got a strong squad but you’ve still got to freshen things up ffs!

It’s just looking like Hecky hasn’t got a clue how to turn things around. His days are surely numbered.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Far too pedestrian slow slow slow getting boring now
