We haven’t come back to win from a losing position all season. Now would be a good time Frank. 

Not enough players capable of creating quality chances, and not enough thay can finish. 

Cant blame the players out there for that attacking perfomance.  Lamps has to take the blame for that. 

Defensively though, theres no way that team should be conceding.

Really need to get our first come back win, but i just dont see it happening.

Just an FYI Reece is also hurt like Alonso 

Dave is awful going forward, all he does is pass backwards.

He’s doing so much more than Emerson, who has done f*ck all.

No he doesn't, he tries the cross quite often, he just isn't very good at it. Emerson is the one that prefers to pass backwards.

We so desperately need a left back in January if we can only get one player please get Chilwell

Willian isn't great but I think he's our best player. He's the only one making any decent passes. Being let down by the rest badly. And Abraham has been garbage but is still benefitting from Academy status which means criticism is forbidden. And CHO, he couldn't open a can of Pepsi.

We are trying to fill a gap left by Hazard and none of our attacking wingers are doing it. Willian is terribly inconsistent. We need somebody to grab the game by the horns and lead us to victory. We don't have that. 

Emerson is really looking like he needs to be sold, he may be our 4th best LB.

Failed to score a home goal in the Premier League in 270 minutes now, and that against 3 struggling teams.

Bring on Pulisic and Barkley

That is utterly pathetic especially given the opposition. Wow that’s just a shocking drought

Pulisic and Mount.

Well not a surprise it is. Team fighting to get away from the drop comes to us, defends deep and let's our center backs have the ball and counters us effectively.

West ham and Bournemouth all over again and we have not learned from those games.

Selecting 2 wingbacks who offer very, very little offensively has been a real handicap. As has Kante breaking up any half decent move we seem to make.

If Frank dont change it then second half will likely repeat the first.

Crying out for James.  Is he injured ?

CHO has to be hooked he’s been playing for Southampton he’s that bad !!

I knew we've been bad at home but I didnt realize it was that bad. Wow, 270 minutes

Mount yes!

I'm not discounting our poor home form but that stat makes no sense.

We beat Aston Villa 2-1 two weeks ago after having lost to West Ham 0-1, and then after the Villa game we lost to Bournemouth 1-0.

Mount on

I don't like Kante playing forward against these teams, he looks painfully average. Kante is better in this role against top teams because they are more open and he can find space to run into. Kante's lack of attacking instincts against these teams really shows.

I think he's injured as he's not on the bench today.

Tammy should be doing better there!

Good to see Mount coming on.

At least Frank is being proactive here.

Holy mother of god... It's a hell of a lot more concerning now that you've put it this way.

And Mount gives us the first good chance.
