    Are we still turning the corner? Have we made it round yet? What’s the angle with this team and coach?

    I see we’re still 10th, making stupid mistakes and not beating awful teams.

    Green shoots.

    Progress.

    Sure thing! Oh and we still don’t have 40 points yet.

    I have, unfortunately, come around to your point of view.
    We are the dictionary definition of mid-table. I do think there's something about this team which is worthy of some optimism, but this season is another write off.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we beat Spurs then lose to West Ham the following week. Just an ordinary team that on its day can beat anyone but that day only comes once a month. Will never get back into the top 4 if we can’t win multiple games on the bounce regularly.

    Is it though?
    As crappy as we’ve been of late, Spurs haven’t beaten us at our place for ages.
    I’m ignoring the league cup game where the teams are often a bit mixed.
    Things are a bit different right now with no fans but I certainly wouldn’t make them favourites.

    I saw some league table from Christmas onwards where we were top 4.
    All a bit meaningless I guess, you obviously judge a season over the whole of it (and at the end )
    I do feel we are playing better right now and but for a Xhaka brainfart I think we'd have won easily today. It's a massively frustrating result and Xhaka should clearly be killed, but I'm a bit more optimistic about things that I was just before Christmas when we couldn't buy a win.
