Away form


It’s three consecutive away games conceding three goals. We’ve become easy to score freely against over the last couple of months even when we haven’t generally played badly (like today and at City). We also don’t look like scoring.

It’s hard to understand why there is such a disparity between home and away.

It was f***ing Arsenal, for god sake. They are winning the league at a canter.

Brentford - Game was on a knife edge Le Fee missed the pen and swung the momentum.

West Ham - We were absolutely shite and setup wrong.

Today - it is what it is, they’re a good side.

Doesn’t mean we are going to get turned over 3-0 every away game
 
Does need improving but in the grand scheme of this season, it's a weird one that as long as home form continues then meh. Build on the squad for next season and have a bit more attacking intent away.


Bases being built, solid foundations, improvement over time.
 
The last 9 goals we have conceded away from home have all been pretty shite like

I think it’s an area to be concerned about and you shouldn’t be called out as being a bed wetter for it

Nothing I’ve said is reactionary or over the top. No gasket blown, no calling for droppings or sackings, no criticism of individual performances. Just an assessment of the actual scorelines and situation. And even an acknowledgement that we generally played well today.

The defensive resilience earlier in the campaign isn’t there. We were very hard to score against, now we aren’t.

Not sure what warrants the expletives
 
Six away goals all season, you can’t fault the endeavour today but we simply didn’t lay a glove on leats be honest a very good Arsenal side. We move on looking forward to Wednesday
