It is too early to panicking at this stage. But I posted on a different thread that we need to start picking up wins ASAP. Assuming we lose to Arsenal, we're going to be under big pressure to beat Leicester and Bournemouth in our next two home games!

I could pick so many points to respond to, but I'll stick to just one which is fact:
Cameron played midfield for around 5 minutes when chasing the game at the end. It made no difference. He was, however, very good at centre-half today.

I wouldn't go that far, obviously, as you take it to another level Benji, but there is cause for concern about our start to the season.
Even with 11 vs. 11 today, we didn't look like creating too much and could have been hit with a sucker punch.
We need to become more clinical and start beating our rivals at home.
Hughes also needs to start Ireland and Arnie.
All will come good though, of that I am sure.

Even with 10 men we maintained control of the game. But with 9 men it was an impossible task. 11 v 11 we would have won comfortably in my mind!

Looked to me like we were dominating more and more as the game went on and it was only a matter of time before we scored. Of course, we'll never know so it's all conjecture

And I thought I was negative. Insignificant Shaq? You cannot possibly be judging him on last week and the thirty minutes we played at full strength today. Yes we'll lose at arsenal no doubt, our season starts thereafter.

I thought we played but I do agree we need to get some points asap because playing well is nothing if we aren't getting the points. You can say we were unlucky but how many times do we end up saying that?

Especially about Ireland (until Bojan's ready) Love to see that big raw-boned Palace midfielder signed up (think it's Jeziak or something like that) Seeing it's increasingly likely Walters is leaving we are crying out for some muscle in the team (IMO)

Diouf lobbing the keeper but just failing to beat the defender to the ball. The last one even came when we were down to 10 men. And all this against a team packing 8 men behind the ball. There's no way we wouldn't have won that game if our players hadn't behaved so stupidly.

We CHRONICALLY miss Moses ?????? is that the undeniably talented Moses who nevertheless went missing for large parts of games against any opposition who tackled him hard a couple of times, who spent large periods of games on his arse and who was so injury prone that he actually played less than 50% of the minutes the team played, and wasn't actually seen after the start of April ????
You are just a complete idiot, you don't support Stoke, and you should just fuck off and support the Baggies, you know you want to

Many seeing sense but it's tough love for some I afraid , it's turning into a horrendous start caused by nightmare window
1 our £5 million centre forward can't earn a start 2 our £3 million centre half can't get In the match day squad even when our captain is unavailable 3 our "bargain " from Barcelona is a liability temperament wise as today showed and had been coming for 4 weeks 4 we actually only have one left winger and he is some way off last years best winger 5 our player of the season has been flogged off cheaply and quickly and we are asking a young man learning his trade to fill that chasm in a struggling team . The media nare now on our case as a story of possible poor Start developing into much worse so the screw is turning

I have to admit I can't really remember the first two, but Diouf's header was a good chance.
