    1 point from their last 5 league games isn't it?

    Forest and West Ham are picking up some points, Spurs aren't.

    I remember there was a poster on here swore that Spurs were going to be far better than us over a 10-year period or so and it's an opinion a lot of Spurs fans held too (Poch era) so it'd add to the hilarity for me if we saw a side that built a stadium for Champion's League football playing their Home matches in the Championship next season.

    Richarlison belongs there

    But what about those Spurs fans, leaving at half time, deserting the team when the team needed them the most.

    Lucky for Spurs they play us next. We're guaranteed to give them the kick-start they need...

    Agreed, we're absolutely dire under Slot.

    Nonsense, the manager’s fault? Get on board the Slot Express ffs Gurthers, so what if he coaches the team, selects the team, motivates the players, gives them the tactics and formation to play… it’s not his fault.

    A shame it's gotten to this, as we are doing some fundamentals "right" (have apparently conceded the least shots of everyone from open play, besides Arsenal) and we keep possession well etc but it's just not a particularly fun watch right now is it? Results AND performances are both underwhelming which is....well, frustrating and somewhat insipid, we'll say that.

    What I would be curious about (alternative Universe machine....) is how we'd look this season with two wide players that are performing properly. So many shots from Salah are missed or blocked, same for Gakpo, suggesting individual error and inability to beat the man/time the shot/pick the correct shot and if we were more incisive....how much better would things look, if at all?

    5 points better? 10?

    Not to mention the effect this has on the full-backs - how much of Kerkez's limited attacking contribution is tactical instruction versus Gakpo not passing to him? Would Frimpong overlap Salah more often if Salah showed signs of recovery pace?

    None of this said to "excuse" Slot by the way - I just wonder how much better things might look with better wide players.

    My apologies miller, you're quite right of course.

    It's hard to know sid. It would be interesting to see if we were better off with Frimpong and Rio getting more game time than Salah and Gakpo.

    Although I'd say our performances since last March, when we still had Diaz, have been insipid. It didn't just start this season.
