We're not but at least they can muddle their way to a shambolic, thud and blunder performance.

And I don't only blame Shakespeare, no one at the club deserves much credit for the way we've handled winning the league.

If something isn't working, why would you continue to do it? Confusing.

Could have 5 - 0 on another day. We have been very lucky. Bournemouth look amazing against us.

It's the first thing they teach you on the Pearson Studies degree.

I'm going to say that I cannot remember a poorer 45 mins from us since the Holloway days.

Utterly inept in every respect. Should be four down.

Worst player on the pitch is N'Didi. Shocking to see how much he's declined over the months.

Changes needed at half time, we need it slowing down in the middle. Its crying out for Iborra I think

Hard to believe this is a premier league game with the total absence of any quality from either team.

We'd struggle in the championship with this team and this manager.

Getting to the point now where it's clear things aren't working, and maybe it's time for the caretaker to move on.

King and Ndidi are killing us. Constantly giving the ball away or leaving massive gaps through the middle. Gray couldn't do less if he stood fiddling with himself behind the goal line and having thought it impossible that he couldn't get any worse after the last 2 games, Albrighton has proved me wrong by being beyond any level of shit ever seen of him before.

I don't think Holloway will return. Nice of him to wear the shirt though.

Mahrez left out and we can’t create anything... not surprised.

Some stats from the first half:

Passing:

Overall, 64% successful (Bournemouth's was 79%)

Schmeichel 22 passes (36% successful)
Simpson 17 (59%)
Morgan 11 (82%)
Maguire 15 (67%)
Fuchs 20 (65%)
Albrighton 11 (55%)
Ndidi 22 (82%)
King 16 (69%)
Gray 18 (67%)
Okazaki 15 (73%)
Vardy 4 (50%)

We made 6 crosses in the half, 5 from Albrighton, 1 from Vardy.

Five tackles - two by Maguire, one each by Morgan, Fuchs and Albrighton. None by our central midfielders.

Only Morgan can hold his head up after that first half.

I've just doubled my bet on us going down.

Iborra is on for King at half time.

Well, there's no possible way Iborra can be any worse than King so he's got nothing to lose.

You made a telling point the other week saying basically that Shakespeare needs to go before people start hating him. I think that's right. he's been an ok bloke for the club and it was the owners who made him permanent manager - presumably (badly) advised by the guys who have wasted millions on millions buying players who were over priced or didn't fit or both. Shakespeare is to be pitied. Could still win this one tho' - Bournemouth don't seem to know how to finish us off.
