Radio 5 said that Routledge was injured in training. The warm-up was different from previously . . . whose influence is that? Just Curtis? Who was the guy in the black tracksuit who entered the technical area and gave instructions to players?
Overall I thought we played quite well. Considering we are in the bottom three we showed a good mental attitude. My one complaint - from 60 minutes I was waiting for both Montero and Barrow to come on. To give Barrow only 8 minutes and Montero zilch was a criminal offence.
Sums it up nicely.Bottom three,goalless and managerless. http://m.thenational.ae/sport/engli...epls-mid-table-aspirants-now-seem-second-tier
We haven't won at home since August. Failure to beat West Brom will mean 4 full calendar months without a win at the Liberty...... If that happens, it suggests the only way is down..... Let's hope we are not a case of .....
Thanks Garry,you done "triffick". I hope all the Monk apologists,those who lambasted Laudrup for his team being 2 points above the relegation and in 12th position,are looking at the current League table and regretting getting what they wished for. Shame on you all.I say. If things don't change,and soon,Curtis will get the blame. He will be the new fall guy,because they will need one to cover their blushes.
Not sure about that, Lib. Curtis is unlikely to be in charge for any lengthy period. He has us playing better football for sure though we still lack a goal threat and yesterday showed some awful managerial naivety. But I think most can see where the fault for our current demise lies, and it isn't Curtis to be fair.
Time will tell,Kiff,but there are some who frequent this forum that will always look for someone to blame. They backed Monk to the hilt,and are now looking extremely foolish. Blaming Curtis would be their way out.
Vetch - it could be argued that the Board acted "at the right time" when they sacked Laudrup ie - before the downward spiral became worse. Equally, it could be argued that the Board acted "at the wrong" time when they sacked Monk - ie they acted too late: the rot had set in There was clearly a better relationship between Huw and Monk than there was between Huw and Laudrup. The friendship with Monk may end up very costly...... Just my opinion.
Why would anyone wish to blame Curtis? What a bizarre comment, but then it's to be expected I suppose, clearly Dementia is on the increase in some parts of Swansea...........
Sadly they did indeed act too late, but it was to be expected in some ways, and yet the media are still saying it was a crazy decision, not so crazy for Chelsea though?..............
There is just too much of a blame culture. Let's just focus on making Pulis's throw his cap on the floor in despair and making Pardew go to the pub to drown his sorrows!
