I have said he was not the right manager for us last season not this season. It was so obvious to a lot of us he was out of his depth and we have been proved right....It's the best all around solution and i said a few weeks back that Jinx wont take much more of his negative football and will sack him before the season ends...i was spot on..
Ah well, season over in my eyes, am furious that we sacked ML. I honestly can't see us surviving now.
Wrong, our boys can get back to playing the way they know they can, and training can improve!............
Dont look at 12th place that means jack ****. look at 2points from a relegation place...that's the reality...
I find myself agreeing with Dai and DPJ - I never thought that would happen. We have been ***** ever since the CC final. Here are some of my observations: - Our structured game has gone out of the window. - Players who should be in every game have been dropped way too often (e.g. Britton, Rangel) - Some of our acquisitions have been shocking (e.g. Shekter and son-of-Shekter) - The players have shown zero commitment (did you watch the West Ham game?) - Our squad is too small (ML's directly responsible for that one) - ML has shown almost contemptuous disinterest and zero motivational skills - Our form since Wembley is bottom-of-the-table I have no doubt that if ML had stayed we were certainties for relegation. At least now we have a chance to bang some heads together and get the players to show some commitment. We have been utter ***** for a year and that has to be ML's fault.
You really think the likes of Michu, Bony, Pablo, and co are going to play their hearts out for Monk? I honestly cannot see it. Its like asking 11 fully qualified builders to work under a 20 year old newbie. It just aint going to work in my eyes. No matter how professional they are, I honestly can't see anything changing, if anything, I can only see it getting worse, I hope to god I am wrong, but I honestly cannot see it.
With the amount of ambition shown by the board there is a risk Swansea might be joining the lower Leagues soon enough...
well if they don't and they really do want to move on after this, how is playing like a turd going to help their cause???? If they want out, they will have to demonstrate qualities to have clubs come knocking
I'm really surprised by the amount of negativity coming from some of our posters...I thought everyone would think this was a good decision. Things have not been right at our club for a long time. It has lacked passion, lacked professionalism, and lacked character. The influx of foreign players has not helped, but Laudrup is the guy who sets the tone. watching some of our Laurdrup matches have been like watching the Sousa team. We have put in the odd good performance here and there...But 50% of the time, we have played terribly. Chuffed Monk is in!
With the amount of determination, motivation and passion showed by Laudrup and his ability to manage the players etc, the same scenario could also be pointed out
Well a Swim and his impeccable source stated that the Spanish players had lost faith with him, so perhaps they will be glad for a change of direction. They are a passionate race normally so hopefully they will respond to someone stoking the fires!!
That's pretty much it, lets hope that Monk and Co, can unite the dressing room, and we can start playing our proper game again using our wide players to stretch teams, and making sure that Britton starts all of the remaing games, which I'm sure he will, Tatlor needs to be given a start at LB, and Ben needs a spell on the Bench, Dyer Needs to start every game too, and if Michu is fit he needs to start instead of Shelvey, Lets Rock and Roll Jacks!.................... please log in to view this image
