As i understand it, this is our 10th league game Decent squad considering our situation. Averaging a point a game Underwhelmed
Two goals in Swansea's last six games then they play us. Blackpool had only scored 8 all season. Put bluntly we are in a false position, bottom three nailed on if we continue like this. Schteeve is a busted flush and that stupid c*nt TF jumped through hoops to sign him. The cost of getting shot of him could be crippling but it has to be done...
Even Club Ambassador Andy Sinton has said at least a couple of times, that we have better players now and should be doing better
LLLLWDWWLL or something like that. Underwhelmed but not surprised with experience players leaving, expected better from mcclaren in developing younger players but that has gone South.....relying on expensive loan signings this is redknapp mark 2.
Now if results continue like this then I give Steve 10 games or less to be back down this place please log in to view this image
I just don’t know the answer at moment, something not right & do we carry on sacking managers & pay out more termination money we can’t afford, is that answer? I thought & was hoping this season would be brighter & attacking football! Have any you seen this because I bloody haven’t, it seems when we concede first the team caves in time & again & we don’t have an answer to getting back in game, FFS Steve or some else sort it out quickly.
We had a half of brighter attacking football against Millwall when SM lucked into playing 4231 because Hemed wasn't available. Instead of riding his luck, he changed it back to get Hemed (who I think is very ordinary) back into the side. We have been **** again since. The Smith/Eze substitution today was just a ****ing insult to football.
I would slightly disagree mate regarding the squad being decent. I understand our situation but let's be brutally honest. Bidwell is as good as my local Sunday league left back. Lynch and Baptiste wouldn't get in any other championship starting 11. Rangel....well Swansea just beat us and they didn't want him. Luongo the most overrated player by a section of our fans that I have witnessed in a long time. Scowen, ten a penny in the lower leagues. Smith just a big old fashioned immobile lump. We have Eze and Freeman with a little creativity but if there's nobody there to give them a decent pass then they are limited in what they can do. In my opinion one of our better passers of the ball is now on loan at Rotherham. We have 2 loan forwards which were nothing but desperation and a manager who is looking absolutely ****e working with a ****e squad. That's my truly honest opinion
Ted forgetting your obsession with JET, my hat goes off to you regarding your talent spotting of Bradley Dack and Kemar Roofe. 2 that you mentioned years ago that we totally overlooked. They are playing fantastically well at this level (Roofe injured at mo) and it does make me wonder who or where our scouts and porn Tash Penrice look for players.
Yep. Ten games in and not terribly inspiring. It's hard to tease out why. FFP obviously huge. I hope Steve doesn't pay the price for factors that won't be fixed by sacking him. Amit seems very quiet?
I say keep the Pratt on for a while As I am usually wrong about football I will never like SM however
It’s somewhat out of McClaren’s hands if the team plays well for the first 15 then collapses when conceding, the players have to take some responsibility for the performances, they are supposed to be professionals and should start to earn the good money they are paid by putting in 100% every time they walk out into the pitch
But they should still be able to play if asked to be in a different position We are not asking them to play in goal Surely no matter where you are on the pitch you should be able to pass the ball to someone in your team Or try to stop an opposing attack Maybe footballers really are dumber than average
Last four seasons managers stats after ten games ( All in the Championship ) ... Steve McClaren (2018/19) = W 3 D 1 L 6 F 7 A 18 Pts 10 Ian Holloway ( 2017/18) = W 3 D 4 L 3 F 13 A 13 Pts 13 JFH ( 2016/17) = W 3 D 3 L 4 F 12 A 16 Pts 12 Chris Ramsey ( 2015/16) = W 4 D 3 L 3 F 18 A 20 Pts 15
