That was truly poor management

[TPClaret]

You do know that the chance creation table is different to the league table printed in today’s newspapers?

Attacking players at Parker’s disposal.

Flemming - played out of position and possibly not 100% fit, signed at last minute with an injury
Anthony - inexperienced
Koleosho - inexperienced
Jay Rod - why he was given a contract I will never know
Houdini - not seen anything to suggest he’s at championship level
Brownhill - usually gets loads of stick on here

One thing I will say is that our corners need to be better, we had loads yesterday and only looked like scoring from one.

I know some disliked Parker before he was appointed, he wasn’t their man and they will never move their limited thought process on from that.

Anthony, inexperienced! Did he not win promotion with Parker at Bournemouth

Ok, I’ll change that to probably not good enough and maybe a player to come off the bench for the last half hour, didn’t realise he’d played 120 games.

11th for xG differential according to FBRef but that hasn't updated with yesterday's yet. Can't imagine that will change looking at the teams ranked above/below.

League position we know.

I've consistently been saying our goalscoring and results weren't sustainable based on our performances - got absolutely slated for saying it after the Leeds game (personal insults, the lot) because "Look at the league table!" and "11 goals in 5 games!".

Well here we are, the goals have proven to be unsustainable. The results are following.

4th on the site that I'm looking at, with many (predominantly attacking) players to return.

Good enough to win promotion with Bournemouth but not good enough for us. Strange statement, he’s only played a handful of games for us

I’ve no idea what his contribution to that promotion was, do you think he has been good enough this season, some games his attacking contribution has been limited, took a good corner yesterday, or should we blame Parker instead? That seems to be the rhetoric for some on here.

Which is?

[Ric_C]

Are we actually doing anything in training on dead balls? 16 corners and we didn't leave a mark on them.

Not entirely true.

Humphries free header in the first half - missed
Laurent (I think) back post chance, fluffed.
Laurent free header second half (should have directed it to the back post instead of going for goal)

Those go in and we'd be saying our corners were good!

He makes a Sean Dyche side look gung ho.

Imagine this team on the Premier League. Heaven help. Mind it would likely be a different team as we are seeing a new team each season.
