New center back

It is as clear as daylight. Another two dead ball goals against us and three more in our net against Chelsea. Never mind Toti Gomes, we urgently need an additional center back. We cannot continue to concede so many goals and expect to survive!

Jeff Shi is playing Russian Roulette with our team. And the chamber is full!

Spend now or forever hold your piece! Or sell to buy but we have to buy!

Average display against a crap Chelsea side ,RAN does not want to be there he’s done nothing compared to last season, are only saving grace is Ipswich and Leicester can’t score goals as soon as they can we’re screwed
The club is in complete disarray and shi nowhere to be seen

Yes, i can’t see why we continue to play those not up for it.We need a minimum of two good defensive players and to sell off the bad eggs whose attitude is not right.
Not being in the dressing room, I cannot be totally sure and can only judge by the performances on the pitch. Hwang and RAN seem to be questionable but RAN has good attacking statistics. I just do not rate his defensive play at times. Sarabia, though talented , lacks the bite and fight for me necessary in our situation . Doc always does his best but is filling in and Bueno is neat but lacks the strength needed at this level. We must acquire better defenders now or we may well be doomed. Come on Fosun, this is nowhere near good enough as you continue to fail us all of late.

I think we’re odds on for conceding 100+ goals this season. All opponents will see the same vulnerabilities and most will exploit them. Can we bring back Bueno? Deploy Dawson? Use Johnstone! Persuade Bueno to jump for the ball?
Agbadou looks fine to me.

Despite the effort of Gomes we are lightweight in midfield.

I get a good sense of Vitor but he can only do so much.

Another 3 goals coming for sure on Saturday…sigh.

Yes, every game just seems to be chaotic, panic stricken and with no game plan present.
Larsen seems to have problems holding on to the ball and trying not to fall over. When he does have a shot, it’s always straight at the goalkeeper. He’s not the only one either.
I’m not happy with Sam Johnstone and I suspect Vitor isn’t either, so Sa will have to do for the moment.
Nine goals given away in three games is appalling and I’m anticipating three more against Arsenal.
It is a difficult task for Vitor to get any cohesive play from the team.
It’s very depressing…

Good to see people are positive as you only think we’ll ship 3 to arsenal, we’ve been deploying Gomes and Andre in midfield and they’ve done as much as 2 against 3 can ,Doyle for me is not the answer and unless were relegated Sheffield can have him I’m afraid we’re playing in an grade A league with B/C players
But then again they might do that thing and surprise us all

I’m no expert but I thought Agbadou was growing in confidence and starting to show a certain commanding presence that maybe warrants putting him in the centre of the three.
He seems a tad too right footed for the left hand side.
Or maybe he’ll swop with Toti eventually and then Doherty will become a utility player.
