We are not a great team/squad... our level is around 16-20... and people complain about beating a top 10 side

Christ, give it a rest, you're just looking foolish now.

[Guest Basildon Fox]

Another abysmal, disjointed performance in the main. Lucky win but a win is a win. Probably bought the charlatan at least another half a dozen games.

[shiv]

We were dreadful. The second half was a repeat of Arsenal, we were just lucky Bournemouth were wasteful.

 

A win is a win but another very underwhelming performance and woeful in game management by Cooper yet again.

[TheGoldenGod]

Extremely happy with the win but being under the cosh for 45 mins against Bournemouth doesn't bode well!

A bit more control please!

Ugly as fcuk - Cooperball

First of the promoted teams to win a game.

 

Could probably should be on 8 points.

Champions League here we come!

how much better did we look defending down Justin’s side when Fatawu came on?? Most baffling thing ever how ayew starts over Fatawu. Copper is a poor manager

one of us is... im celebrating a hard fought win against a good opposition.

[The Guvnor]

Banger of a goal and a win at home.

Like to know what Edouard brings to the party, a dreadful cameo, his lack of pace is evident and his first touch was woeful.

[JonesLCFC]

By the absolute skin of our arse, but we'll take it. Fullbacks are giving nightmares, CBs were class, ref was awful. Benounotte is ace, Edouard looks a horror show. Thank God for that. Valuble 3 points to start this important run-in. We can't be so under the cosh though; it's painful to watch. On another day, we lose that in the second half.

[wardyfox86]

That's Cooper safe til Xmas then 

 

Seriously though, happy to get the 1st win however it comes, but that was an awful 2nd half and there won't be many more points won playing that way. Look at the chance Bournemouth had. 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Oh what a feeling!

 

Faes and Okoli were excellent. Ndidi and Skipp did well too. Facundo, what a goal lad!
 

We scrapped it but I’ll happily scrape 9 more. I worry about Reid and Edouard - both look poor. 
 

 

[Your Honour]

Won that despite Cooper not because of him. Second half was as bad as it gets.

[RowlattsFox]

People seem genuinely annoyed we've won  just enjoy the feeling of winning a game. Who knows when it will happen again 

[KingKoala]

Happy with the result but how bad is Edouard, no wonder he isn't starting

i was going to watch this but i saw we were leading and didnt want to jinx it, so you're welcome i guess

 

I also did this. So are we saying if we want to get rid of Cooper, we have to watch us play? I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Ayew was playing centrally and not in Fatawus position.

[roblcfc84]

Honestly don’t know what people want…we are a newly promoted side, with loads of new players to bed in. This isn’t the same calibre of squad that finished 5th, won the cup or even went down. I saw every player fight and scrap for those 3 points…we’ve scored in every game, and we at least look like we care. Think the criticism of cooper is unhinged tbh

[SheppyFox]

With how bad palace wolves and Southampton are, I think we’ll need two more wins to secure safety 👀

Bournemouth are an established mid table premier league side some fans have delusions of grandeur regarding where we are.

[Fear Of The Fox]

The only positive is that we only need another 5-6 wins like this to stay up this season. It seems 24pts we'll be enough to finish 17th.

[Tazfox]

Faes showed why he can be a world class defender at times today, he was immense.

 

If he cuts out his brain farts there is no way he doesn't move to a bigger club next season

 

Bounanotte was almost Mahrez esque at times in the first half. Second half was turgid. Saying that Vardy should have made it 2 and Odsonne fluffed a great chance at the end also

Welcome win but atrocious again.

 

Get rid of him now while we have this break. 
 

Schmidt or Hjulmand IN. 

 

Schmidt as in Roger Schmidt? No chance he'd come to this shitshow.

 Correct, I thoroughly enjoyed this performance. What needed doing, was done.
