To be fair this team is bloody bipolar so why should we be any different?!I just went from p44 HT to now to p90 post match.

Your wife is your sister ? I thought it was just a bad stereotypeFuck it, I'm going to the Portsmouth game on Saturday. Haven't been since the Watford game at the end of Poch's time and I was absolutely ready to write off the twenty quid and stay up here in Norfolk with my wife/sister. Fuck knows how I'm going to get there with the trains but if we can perform like the 2nd half then it'll be worth it.

Hope Conte sees what Sarr and Gil bought to the team and realises he can be a bit more adventurous with his team selections when the first choice eleven is hit by injuries and the backups aren't performing.
Royal was naff when he came on and we suddenly looked quite vulnerable down that side but the fans booing and jeering him are an embarrassment.
Yeah Skippy is much better as a deep lying player, break up play, niggle at the oppositin and move the ball quickly, his passing is good when it's out into the feet of attackers or down the channels but he isn't creative or someone who can run at defenders in tighter spaces.I still think Skipp could be a good solid player for us, but he is awful when he gets forward.
Not sure why Conte tried to get him to be a box to box midfielder (I do, because we didn't have any... )
Sarr just looks a talent on the ball and works hard off it.
Conte wants a strong 14 players(?) With some younger back up option. I think Skipp and Sarr can be the back up options for now.
Calm down Daniel ?Brillant, Doherty at RWB, Sarr at CM and Gil at AM are three brand new players for Antonio to use. No need to check the market.
Well well well... not sure where 4-0 came from given the state of things at HT but fucking hell just what we needed. Palace did fold pretty weakly, but you could see gradual signs of life emerging from our lot as the score-line got better and better. Players started to control a ball, take it on the turn, had some zip about them, wanted to make runs, put some combinations together between them. All things we have lacked for many many weeks.
Long way to go to until we can say standards and performances are back to somewhere near their best, but lets hope that second half gives a bit of breathing space, some confidence and momentum, and is the first step in getting back there.
Probably doesn’t leave his office much anymore. Too afraid Conte or Levy will catch him chatting with the other about how things are going with their respective transfer targets.Does anyone know if Paratici was at the game? We've not seen nor heard from him for so long that I'm beginning to wonder if he's been placed in a Witness Protection programme by the Turin police or if sadly, he's sleeping with the fishes.
I thought I saw a picture of him at our home game last weekend!Does anyone know if Paratici was at the game?

Why didn't I listen...... switched off around the 38th minute...just seen the result. But I've gotten totally disinterested if I'm being honest.What’ve you been doing in recent games this us one of our better games
I'm replying after the 4-0 win. But I've felt this way forever too..2nd half of last season was the exception and I thought we'd carry on from there season. Yeah I missed that 2nd half yesterday.I honestly wish, so fucking much, that I had the mental strength to not watch us…
But I can’t. I don’t know why I put myself through it but I keep telling myself things will improve, yet they invariably do not. This season especially.
The away support are the hard core. The home support is full of too many tourists.Why is our away support great and our home support shit?
Because we've only seen evidence of it in a handful of games at best.This is surely the way Conte wants us playing, not the dross we’ve been serving up of late. How can anyone regard Conte ball (the actual thing) boring? This more resembles what we know it to be.
