I believe the Braga team selection and performance was more of a "show" that those in charge of recruitment really messed up and therefore the players signed this window must be vastly better.
Which is why we beat Brentford easily.........
Europa league game coming up this week will be last chance saloon for some players to show they should be kept and not sold.

Lucca will make a massive difference ahead, as will Awoniyi once he gets back to match fitness.\
We will easily finish mid table.

I have changed the thread title because I think I was a bit harsh.
That display in Braga really angered me hence the original thread title.
The title of the thread in more balanced now.
Well done Sean by the way for the performances since Braga.

Dyche is far and away our best best to see out the season
Edu and co are here for this transfer window at least.
The players we have got need to be supported
Need to put differences aside, we can revaluate everything in the summer but for now we need to survive in the PL and see how far we can go in Europa. Lets support Nottingham Forest.

Great stat!
Dyche knows the score and has thick skin, but we should be more supportive because he is doing exactly what we knew I would.
Shake hands at the end of the season (unless we go on a massive run) and keep transfer incomings minimal in the summer. Replacements only and work to improve the squad we have.

We are told by some we should hold our noses about paying to watch Dycheball because he is a pragmatic, experienced premier league manager who joined us when we were second bottom of the table and is an expert at keeping teams up. He is supposed to not panic when under pressure and it is worth the compromise in playing style we asked to endure. That is a fair argument if true but it isn't. On Sunday against Palace he did panic under the pressure of having Williams sent off. At the time of the handball, it was nearly half time. Callum Hudson-Odoi was already injured and holding his shoulder. Instead of replacing Callum with Moratto he brought off Dominguez who is probably the fittest player in the squad and whose running capacity was likely to have been needed to compensate for going down to 10 men. At half time he duly brought Callum off and replaced him with Ryan Yates to play in the same position he could have put Dominguez. It was a wasted substitution which could have hurt us.

Glad you were on the bench and touchline and knew exactly what Callum had indicated to the physios etc and know exactly what the plan is if we go down to 10. Was worried for a moment there
