I tend to agree really, also it's not arrogance but a genuine assessment of our squad versus most of the others. Take Rotherham, is it wrong to say that with our squad we should batter them, I don't think so!
I stand corrected, I'm basing my Lemmings knowledge on the computer game Lemmings, you lads have found me out!
I can see where you're coming from, but if your point was valid then why are Leicester top of the Premier league?; why are Chelsea down at the bottom?; why are Brighton doing so well? etc. etc. - you get my drift?
Leicester get Vardy and Mahrez injured then their squad strength is found out, as for Chelsea the manager lost the squad when he lost the ladydoctor
What difference does having a good bench make? If they were that good they'd probably be in the first team. It's still pretty arrogant to think we should walk the league when the general consensus is that both Derby and Middleborough have better squads than ours. Even if we do have the best squad, most other teams in this division have a number of players who can win a game on their own. As I've said before, Reading are at the bottom end of the table and their strikers would walk into our team.
While I agree that we probably have the best squad in the championship on paper - the game isn't played on paper!
Obviously. But if we're not doing as well as our squad suggests, what could that be down to? It's the manager's job to get the best out of them. If we're not scoring goals with this embarrassment of riches something is wrong.
I just feel the squad dont respect him as much , hes not lost the dressing room , but the players laugh at him , and mock him and his sayings
it will be interesting to see just how much AA will shell out in the summer for talent when we go back up, and whether he trusts Brucey with the kitty. Phelan should be given a crack of the whip.
The last two years have been a catastrophe barring an FA cup final. In two years, we have played well less than a handful of times. Seriously, it could be counted on one hand the amount of times we've looked convincing in almost 100 games. This squad has cost tens of millions to put together and the investment in the playing squad far surpasses any other in the league. We are comparable to the West Brom of 07/08 or the Newcastle of 09/10 and are falling far short. Bruce is a poor manager and it's time he left.
This cannot go on past Christmas. New boss for the transfer kitty. If we don't go back up, players will leave and we will be championship midtable regulars at best. Can't beat 23rd with the players we have, it's a fking disgrace!
Lose today and we might as well admit the players want him gone , To lose to the worst team in the divison by miles , is the players saying how long do you want us to play like this Mr Allam
Even the FA cup final isn't much to champion. It's little more than a reserve competition these days. No one cares about it anymore sadly.
What was the point of merging? That other thread was a proper poll to get the feelings of city fans. The mods have a bruce in agenda and need to **** off.
