We seem to have a problem with our starter motor, obviously the concentration level is not that great too.
Every time we play we seem to give away goals from simple defensive errors, it cannot keep going on like this unless Adrian is Superman every week it is going to become a bigger problem.
What is the problem is it the new style and the requirement to play a faster slicker passing game than what we did under Sam , or is it nerves ? .The slack passing is costing us some decent points.

I know chubs , i cant put my finger on it either ,its as if other teams close us down right quick and they seemingly play us at our own game sweeping forward ,hunting in packs ,lets be perfectly honest we got out of jail again yesterday ,that first half was dyer they should have dug the grave and administered the last rights ,then a stroke of luck they had a man sent off and we should have had , i think the problem is we are not getting our 3 best players ,payet , lanzini and mosses on the ball half enough and history seems to be repeating its self in that our captain is on then off again , i dont know trance the top teams and struggle against the minnows better not let that pattern continue

I was about to start a very similar thread. Only saw us on motd this week but at the start of the season everyone was working hard for each other yesterday I saw both kouyate and Payet just strolling around like it didn't matter! I'm wondering if some players have taken their eye off what is needed every week in the premiership? I'm wondering if there is just a little bit too much arrogance on our part as a team? Maybe we think we can just get points by not putting in the hard yards. We won't recover points from teams if that's our attitude

The slow starts.Admirable as it is to get ourselves back in the games against norwich & sunderland,but we shouldnt be putting ouselves in that position in the first place...

Switched on indeed turk,these errors and misguided passes it's happening far two many times now, had the good fortune of them firing a few blanks first half it should have been game over,do this against inform palace in a fortnight it could prove embarrassing,the pt we got out of the sunderland game felt like a win in the end. great fight back second half I must say,i know no game is easy and anyone can turn over anyone on the day,but let's stop all the cock ups and we may take more pts from these games instead of us playing catch up
