Recalling Gallagher and selling Gabbiadini. Trust the blackbox
If we sell Gabbiadini in the midst of a relegation battle, rather than FINDING A ****ING SYSTEM THAT SUITS THE PLAYERS then I think I'll have just about had enough.
I don't think he's a world-beater by any account, but this would be such a painfully unnecessary waste of a player with ability.
I'll be ****ing annoyed if we sell Gabbi, and then bring in someone else who Pellegrino also doesn't know how to fit into the team leaving us in the same predicament we're in now...

Couldn't agree more. Nothing typifies our situation right now more than Gabbiadini. A player who has been described as having a wand of a right foot, who showed his potential straight after arrival but who can't get more than 10 minutes off the bench to hold up long balls while we try and hang onto a 1-0 lead. I'd be building our attack around him at the moment.
Can't say I'm hugely surprised. Though if he's not up for fighting for his place he's someone who isn't gonna be much use this season.
Please, just sack MP.
If we're not happy with MP2 why would we expect the players on the sidelines to be? No doubt Shane Long thinks MP2 is the best manager since Sir AF. Gabbiadini probably has a different opinion. Can't say i blame him for being unmotivated.
Agreed. The biggest crime though, will be if we sack him after the window closes giving whoever we've plucked from obscurity as a replacement no resources to try and turn it around.And then sack Pellegrino...
Just sack the poor bloke now ffs![]()

They're professionals.
Buy a player with notable quality. Have player get jerked around by coach. Have coach go months without a win.
Solution: back coach to the hilt, buy his preferred striker, and ship out player...?
Even worse, said new striker may just be the type of player that Gabbi needs to play with![]()
Did you just suggest that it's possible for Gabbi to play with a striker for more than 5 minutes at a time? Madness.
It is a new tactical future football thing - I’m Going to call it “play another striker”![]()
Or "in a lineup that insists upon inside forwards/inverted wingers/whatever you want to call them, use the guy who has played most of his career in that role". Yours is definitely more concise.
