Livid.

Losing after leading. Worrying trend and that’s on Ange. Just can’t put teams away.

Kulusevski always puts in a shift but he was so frustrating. Slowed us down offensively.

Porro was our best by some margin and at the moment looks are only creative spark.

Hojbjerg being himself. Was great against City but was poor tonight.

Would have put Donley on. He can’t be worse than Gil.

Deki was poor tonight. Bad decision after bad decision! Probably just exhausted.

JWP saying they played well 1st half, honestly how do they cope on their own.
I mean they weren't dreadful. I thought we were neat and tidy in the first half but lacked cutting edge a bit. In the second half we lacked the tidiness as well.

Lo Celso going off destroyed our play. Maybe it is fitness or injury related, but that was a real turning point.

Do you think so? I didn't think he played that well tonight and he certainly isn't a creative player. He generally tends to play square passes.

After our start I was dreaming of the title, after Villa I would settle for top 4, after tonight I’m praying we get to 40 points! 😂 This bloody club!

Hopefully we turn it around at some point.

Then again, Swansea played some nice attacking football didn't they 😬😬

Really disappointing result and I saw that coming after half hour. We need to do more with our good football. We’re passing so well which is great to see but we’re not really doing much in the box.

Please can someone intelligent explain why ange doesn't play on the left and Johnson on the right

Donley won't play a minute now Sarr is back. And clearly Skipp and Hojbjerg are preferred.

Inverted wide forwards was the biggest issue tonight. Very noticeable from about twenty minutes in. We got lulled into recycling the ball and making the pitch very narrow. Kulusevski needs to play in the middle. Out on the right he’s just far to predictable and a dead end. Johnson is better on the right as well.

Similar to the Villa game, we seem to punch ourselves out and give encouragement to the other team.

My personal take on what's happening is that with the press we do we start very strong in games but early second half we tire and that's when if we had more fit players Ange would be able to make some subs without a drop in quality. As it is, the injuries are killing us and we can't really do that so our players run out of steam, make mistakes and we concede. We are very reliant at the moment on getting at least a couple of goals in the first half of games and if we don't manage that we struggle to see games out.

Clearly a lot of emotional teenagers posting on this site at the moment. We’re missing 5 players that would feature ahead of most that played tonight, it’s going to have a big impact especially in a transitional season.

We’re still playing good football and in should have been 3-0 up before they got a lucky deflection. Shit happens. If we keep playing this type of football then good things will happen. I certainly wouldn’t want to watch us play the way West Ham did tonight.

You need to stop blaming the officials. That's not why we are dropping points.

I’ve thought some of our injuries have come from players not being protected but I didn’t even notice the ref tonight so not sure what the complaints are.
