I'm looking beyond and actually looking at how we setup, tactics, player improvement(regressing) it isn't a good watch. Since reverting from athletic, physical, pressing team weve slowly tried to be more front foot and it's not working.
This was a regular occurrence two seasons ago and it never really went away. Another example of the coaching and how we set up to get played through very easily.

I know Donald Trump is a pathological liar, malignant narcissistic sociopath, racist, antisemite, misogynist, xenophobe, homophobe, transphobe, hater of our troops and believer in euthanizing folks with disabilities, but we too often forget that he's *also* an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon.

This big of a drop off? Really? One player? We’ll be in the championship never mind champions league the time it’s taking to get a tune off this team this season. You have ‘Howe rose tinted glasses’ on. We’re going around in circles here really. Have to agree to disagree on this.
PL ready players that just look really poor and have zero end product.
It really is an excuse, we mocked Man Utd for spinning 100s of millions and not improving, we're £700m into a project and we look so far off the pace team wise, tactically, players regressing rather than improving. These aren't players bought from abroad they've been superb, I'm talking PL ready.
Iraola, Glasner and Hurzeler all get more out of their teams by structure and coaching with shoestring budgets whilst losing their best players season after season. Just named three in PL alone.
Chalk and cheese from last season tbh.
Slot is getting results regardless, Howe isn't. Slot is getting a tune out of other players and using the system as much as I hate it. Howe simply isn't getting a tune out of top, top midfield or our front line bar Woltemade.
Debate my comments and prove me wrong?
The same as you cant accept critism of Howeni guess. Again other coaches would love his budget(£250m in summer) to improve, only we look far worse. That is facts.
We're trying to be possession based without threatening. It's all very well having the ball and passing it around for fun, bit like a bloke downing a viagra in an empty house.
You started it by saying how can a coach improve international players that cost £50m+, youre just scared to go against Howe and admit that they've regressed. Like I say bootlicker and why we'll never move to elite level.
That first full season he had was fantastic, Physicality, pace, aggression. After another £500m spent i don't even know our identity, style of play now.
Truth is they should have been moved on before we got to this.
Christ that's a feeble excuse🤣how do you improve established international players you've spanked £700m on. "£700 fkn milion". an apologetic bootlicker who simply cant see a managers failings. Iraola, Glasner do it on a shoestring?
Joelinton should be shook by the hand and told thanks you've served your purpose, same as Pope, Willock and those who haven't like Barnes, Osula etc. Bit it's the old Bournemouth situation, overly loyal to players not upto job.
Thats the frightening thing he's currently our best winger, while £140m worth of wingers look like they've never played the game before. Great coach though who improves players.

MYTH.

But other teams are making it simple- a certain team down the A19 are doing it when most of them hadn’t played together at all till couple of weeks before season started. BNW isn’t the issue. It’s the wingers, and midfield. And increasingly feel it’s Howe too.
Adapting? You really think Gordon, Barnes are told to go on the pitch and look like a drunk lumbering around a carpark looking for their keys. Gordon and Barnes aren't being coached and look awful, but if you call that adapting.
Throw in our midfield with two players who're tinkering below the world class bracket also.
Gordon has been gash 18 months and regressed, Barnes less said the better, Elanga looks terrified. Great coaching though.
You keep mentioning Woltemade when he clearly isn't the problem. Today we just lumped it up to him, baring in mind the quality of our midfield and it just came back. You telling me that's what £700m investment guys you?
Woltemade isn't the problem here btw it's more the supporting cast. Established supporting cast🙅‍♀️
3 of our 4 wingers have been there 3 seasons plus also. Weve the same established midfield, some would say one of the best in the league. Maybe it's down to the tactics and the coaching.
