It help when you can have a billion pound squad

......and so they should with the money they've spent

We are miles off it. Relegation nailed on. Been lucky with points we've got from games so far. Southampton, Ipswich are at least giving it a go. We are hopeless and yesterday just about summed it up. With a new manager watching they just couldn't be arsed.

Agree all gob and no substance scouser

I think Maresca suddenly leaving in the summer has left the club in a big void. Panick appt of Cooper and no real thought on transfers that have turned out to be mediocre at best. Need a massive reset with RVN coming in. Needs to have a good look at squad and major surgery required in Jan.

We don't have any quality. Name one player apart from Mads that has performed well?

We needed to strengthen in the summer with quality signings especially in central defence, midfield and up front. We bought very average players and lost KDH. Just don't have the quality.

Just seen the goals. Appreciate the backline is rubbish but not helped by no one midfield closing down. Brentford had so much time to pick a pass. Got to get more aggressive. We have so many players that just aren't prem quality. Major RVN turnaround required or it's guaranteed relegation

Yes that's the problem. Who's going to take the likes of Faes

Need a total clearout in Jan. No other option. If you're not up for the fight the get rid.

Ruud has just left the building

Will get crucified in midfield. 3 - 0 thumping. Thomas in also wtf

At the moment we just don't have the energy to press especially with our midfield. Winks, Ndidi, Skipp and Mavididi just don't press or only 1 or 2 do it which is a waste of time. We miss the energy of KDH. We therefore end up sitting back and inviting pressure.

Agree. There's been no intensity or press. Not sure they really knew what to do. Too many player changes and in different positions. Need somehow to get a settled side.

We are so poor at the moment. Just seen Southampton draw at Brighton and they look miles better than us. We've been really lucky with the points we've gained. RVN will need to earn his wages with what he has to work with. Can't see anything but a loss tomorrow I'm afraid

Dibling reminds me of KDH

Southampton don't look a bad side. We really need to show up tomorrow as it's been so poor lately. Hope RVN can make a difference but not sure he will be able to with the players we have.

This has all the hallmarks of what happened in the summer with the appointment of Cooper. My take is no one wants it and the scraping of the barrel is now happening.

That was before everyone started to decline us

Let's face it the Leicester job isn't that attractive and can see why Potter and Moyes have said no. We had to take the best on offer with Cooper. I know everyone wants an appointment asap but we need to get this right otherwise it's certain relegation. Whoever we get will be a gamble. I really think we won't have much to choose from.

Are they just waiting for the WBA game tonight before anything is done with Corberan. Would imagine WBA wouldn't have wanted anything to be discussed or announced before tonight

WBA have a game tomorrow night. Maybe something might happen after that game if it's Corberan

Yes but not convinced we have enough quality to stay up. Even with Cooper in charge it's been pretty awful. Would like to think things will improve but who knows

Realistically Top must have one eye on next season as we may go down. Next appt will be here for the rest of the season as he won't sack again. Would Moyes or Potter stay if we got relegated, I doubt it. Need someone who will be part of a project that might be needed if relegated. RVN or Corberan would be up for that.

Talking rubbish. They haven't seen the decline in the performances since Cooper came. He was clueless. Blaming refs etc. Desperate tactics from him. Sitting back in games and hoping to nick a win.
