Our fans are rubbish. Now Pickford is getting loads of stick, despite the fact he has been keeping us in games most weeks. I think collectively we've turned on every single player at one point.
{Ed0333's Note - Sadly we live in an age of instant gratification Tommy. In my humble opinion Ronnie boy purchased some expensive duds and you will need time to phase these players out of the team or for them to show the reason they were bought. Results and performances will suffer in the interim and fans need to appreciate this. You won’t become Liverpool overnight (only joshing mate)

Similar thing happened with Spurs and the bale money. It'll take a few seasons to get an established squad.

Think people are only pointing out his mistakes mate, like we do every other player and manager. No ones having a go at him.

I'm certainly not having a go at him. I said he is an excellent keeper and I think he has the potential to become even better and possibly England's number one. Overall, I think he's been one of the bright points in our season and probably the best of our new signings. However, he has an obvious and persistent weakness which is a dangerous one for a goalie. Saving shots is great - and he's a great shot-stopper, but pushing the ball back out into the danger zone is no good at all when it can be avoided. It has and will continue to cost us goals. Sometimes those goals have cost us points. I realise being a goalie is a thankless task and I know the guy is young, but it is something I'm surprised to see happen as often from a goalkeeper at this level, and it does need sorting.

Yeah but we even had someone saying that Robles needs to come in for him. That is ridiculous. So many overreactions at the moment.
