The system needs bravery and the team did step it up a level today in that aspect which I'm sure he was pleased about. He obviously needs to try and build confidence and show faith in the players and the system so it doesn't surprise me at all to hear his interview.

Lovely fella. But lovely fellas don't do any good in football, unless they are managing Man Citeh or Real Madrid...Walt clearly doesn't have a clue about the English championship football and setting up a side to play at the required tempo. We're far too ponderous, unsure and we don't look like scoring enough goals to even grab 40 points, never mind 50.
We need 6 points against Stoke and Cardiff to settle nerves. Fin Burns at defensive mid is something I don’t want to see again. Not picking him out to blame as others were far worse but he’s just not composed enough on the ball.
I thought Drameh looked very decent when he came on. He surely must start ahead of Giles from now on.
I do think it is still too early to judge this team and squad - as it’s the first game they’ve really had together and it’s a relegated side.
However, we look wide open in midfield - which needs sorting quickly. We also look like we have the same problem in attack as last season in that we get near the penalty area and then have no idea what to do next.
The next 3 games have suddenly become very key and will be very telling. I expect a minimum of 4 points. Anything less and I think we can put it down to an abysmal start.

We’ve signed 3 left backs and had one break through from the academy over the space of a year and we’re still playing right backs in the left
Poor recruitment whichever way you look at it.
I'd banish Giles from the 1st team squad for the foreseeable.
The contempt he holds the Club in is obvious.
Shocking behaviour from a so called professional footballer.
Doubt Tim will be going anywhere for awhile as it would really make Acun look stupid if he changed him after the last episode so we just have to hope Tim can get them going or it is going to be a really bad winter even if the sun is out.
Yeah. At least Drameh looked interested and had something about him. As for the likes of Giles its difficult to know where to start to analysis his performance. He's trying....very trying...but he's only one of several.
This is bang on Ric, the defensive formation in transition is ****ing woeful. The amount of times that they had a 2 on 1 or 3 on 1 was ridiculous, and if you combine that with the FACT that we don’t even look like scoring we could easily be rock bottom by the next international break.
It’s all well and good to say that some of the players don’t yet know each others strengths but having Macca playing as an attacking midfielder just doesn’t cut it for me, and I know that he’s doing what he thinks Walter wants but it clearly ain’t working, and looks like Walter and his staff could turn out to be a very expensive mistake for Acun.
Did I mention yet that Fin Burns looked completely lost in midfield? Seriously wtf has Tim seen in him in training to start him there over Zambrano?!
Burns looked genuinely lost pretty much all game. Offered us very little.
Giles needs firing to the moon. I wouldn’t care if I never saw him in a City shirt ever again. Disgrace.
Bedia is a handful but we dropped a clanger not getting a striker in. He should have got on the end of a few.
Coyle tries so hard. Always gives everything.
Very early days still, literally a brand new team with a brand new manager but it just doesn’t feel right.

What would you expect from someone with one of those daft granny mops on top of his head.
That was the strangest decision from tonight. Has anything been mentioned as to why he started Burns, or vice versa why Zambrano or Simons didn't start over him?
Well, that and keeping Belloumi on so long (or even starting him). I'm sure he'll come good, but no way was he ready for a start tonight. Unfair on him, and plain stupid throwing him in like that.
Tim Walter = German Arveladze.
Some of the worst football I have seen from City in recent times.
He’s not been helped by the **** show of a transfer window. But, he’s still way out of his depth.

The book/buck whichever it is, stops with the owner. No one else. If this season does go to **** it's entirely on him
