Exactly! Why wasn't Ortega up there?
Still, great news. We absolutely bossed the possession and xG.
It was very frustrating but it wasn't the tactics or the team selection wot done it. We just aren't very good playing with 60% possession against a team trying to hit us on the break. It was the same under Nuno and it is true now. We don't have enough good finishers in the team. If fact it's arguable without Wood we don't have any. However I am not pessimistic. We are till 3 points above West Ham and 2 behind Spurs. And we are 8th in the form table over 6 games. The problem being that West Ham are 7th. But Spurs are 20th.
The gig was good. How did the match turn out?

For all the good stuff MGW does I wonder if we need to move on from him at some point. He doesn't do enough to open up defences when we have possession. His specialty imo is running with the ball, on the break, and picking a through ball. Like last season. I'm not convinced he can adapt to be an effective creative force when we have lots of possession and the opposition sits deep.
The flicks. Will no one think of the flicks...
Dyche very close to blaming the crowd in his interview there. Cunt
To be fair, on five live, he went out of the way to make it clear he took responsibility (albeit along with the players) and didn't blame the crowd.
That said, all season, our home crowd has been largely shit. The atmosphere has been nothing like the previous couple of years
There was a clamour for Hutchinson to play tonight from a lot of fans. It was pretty clear to me tonight why he hasn't been playing. He was fucking awful. Can't believe the manager didnt take him off.
It'll be Macatee the fans want next, despite all of the preceeding evidence.
There's a reason why Dominguez plays. Because he's better than the others.

Sometimes. And more as a defensive option without supporting the fullback. Hutchinson at least pinned them back. CHO is also pretty miserable. Our front 4 options have all been miserable this season in myriad ways.
If there was a moment that summed the night up, it was Dan Ndoye trying an overhead kick on the edge of the penalty box.
Dyche's gone.
At the end of the day we always sack.
Fuck off Ingo. You were fucking useless! And you got the Ginger Prince sacked.
This feels like a relegation season. Incredible really. We cannot score for toffee.
Wow just wow. I think we are fucked….
Chicago: Saving myself for the run in.
36 shots, sack the manager, ridiculous.
