This after Thursday's match.
So after yesterday's defeat to West Ham, are we:
4 points from 36?

That's embarrassingly bad.
Is it psychological;?

It;s not psychological, its just how good we are.
 
Performance deserved at least a draw today, beaten by fine margins an improvement on the Tottenham game and against opposition whom are better than Tottenham
 
Another pathetic performance, another dreadful result away from home. Business as usual for ten Hag.
 
Mid season 23/24

Are the performances any better at home? Apart from Chelsea game and second half vs 10 man Forest the home performances have been equally pathetic.
 
We're terrible away at top 12 sides and we've got an appalling away record in London.
So why anyone was surprised at today I do not know.

We're 14th in the expected points table overall - 13th at home and 15th away. So really, we're just getting lucky with results more than anything else.

All dreadful performances too. The Liverpool performance was akin to a league 2 side pulling up at Anfield.

Against the top 10 sides away, we should just play defensively with compactness and shape like against Liverpool.

Grinding out 0-0 draws or sneaking an occasional 1-0 win is better than these typical limp pathetic defeats.
