This is almost Bruce esq. Miggy back to his old self. Isak completely useless. Gordon the same. We may still get a result if Howe kicks off at half time. But if they score again it’s going to be a hammering. We can kiss goodbye to top six aswell.
Let's remember where we were 2 years ago lads.. this was always going to happen somewhere along the way.
So as a professional footballer they have to be motivated by the manager as opposed to motivating themselves? And it’s Howe’s fault? And, in any event, yes you can use the tiredness as a reason because it’s an accumulative thing particularly mental tiredness. Also at this level it’s about small margins which applies to physical and mental alertness as well.
I expected us to be leggy but we cant even control the ball, just constantly dispossessed and hoofing it up the pitch
It’s an excuse. Nothing more. And yes it’s the managers job to motivate. That’s one of the prime reasons he is there. I accept we have a lot of injuries but the basics are all wrong in that first half. It’s too easy to say we are knackered let’s roll over and let them tickle our balls. Last 3 away games. 2-0 3-0 2-0 Two against relegation teams. Albeit Bournemouth have been good lately. And today against a team who have lost 4 on the bounce.
