..........and that's the situation we find ourselves in three games into the Premier League season. The loss of Kingsley is huge and I'm pretty sure will come back to bite us on the backside.
It is the same old thing, Lets make do, the club have had this make do attitude since the arrival of Monk. Well that attitude will eventually bite as right on the Arse sooner or later and I have a feeling it will be sooner.
Cannot see Clement staying long at the Liberty, he will be next to go for sure one way or the other, just need a string of defeats and job done..................
I know I've been moaning a lot about us but I've mainly been moaning about how wafer thin our squad is. The players though can at least play football and against the poorly managed **** kickers of Palace,we should do well. We only need padding to fill out our squad whereas Palace need a major rebuild from top to bottom. de Boer is a dick so I'll be shocked if we lose this one. 0-2 Swans win.
Could well happen, depends on results though.If we don't sign any one of any consequence in the next week then the pressure on PC will become intense and very unfair.
He is just like the rest "one game wonder" There is no consistency with him and this goes for most of our players now...
Maybe Clement should grow a pair and vent his frustrations publicly. He'd have the full support of the fans.
Arguably the weakest squad we've had in the EPL. Of our 45 goals from last season, 25 were scored by player who are injured or have left. This transfer window is like a Groundhog Day of the last three.
Just to remind you, what stand out players did we have in our 1st season in the PL , our strength was we played as a unit with no super stars and I'd was happy with that but our identity has gone , maybe Clement can do something about that but will he give himself time and more importantly will the Board
But we had just been promoted. We are now in our 7th season and we have no stand out player that would get in most PL sides outside the top 6. Someone with that X factor who can win a game on his own with a little bit of magic, like Bony, Michu, Gylfi etc. On the whole, this is by far our weakest team in the PL.
Like I posted , they were no superstars just hard working with a great team ethic who bought into what the Clubs' philosophy was , once that was tampered with and eventually destroyed by Monk we have now seen the Clubs' decline .
I'm n How do you quantify it though ? and I'm not saying your wrong but our strength was our philosophy now we have nothing therefore our squad looks poor in comparison because we can't play as a unit from the back through the middle waiting for an opportunity therefore that's why we were so reliant on Siggy and Llorente last season .There are signs that we could become a regular PL mid table side based on what Clement is trying to do but has he the patience and the time to get his methods fully integrated throughout the squad.
