Sergey, Is it the Russian saying “ Life is like the bear, either you eat the bear or the bear eats you” Len is looking like he is going to get eaten and he needs to come out fighting.

Sorry Sergey .. admirable though it may be supporting your countryman I disagree to a certain extent.

The Allams have sold him down the river with their asset stripping and poor recruitment, I fully concur with you here.

However the players brought in are currently performing well below their natural levels. The organisation of the team is none existent. The ideal to play 2 wingers who simply cant or won't defend against solid banks of 3 and 4 midfielders is ridiculous. We are constantly getting over run in midfield which pressurises the already poorly drilled defence.

We are lacking quality for sure due to the Allams incompetence however as I have repeatedly said someone capable of organising and coaching properly would improve our performances immeasurably.

I point to Slutskys behaviour on the touch line during games were he constantly parades up and down looking at his toes instead of interacting with players on the field to ensure they know what they should be doing and bollocking them if they arent getting it right.

I point to the time Hector was sent off against Forest when it was left to Dawson to organise the team while Sluts looked nervously at his toes.

Nice bloke .. yes
Sympathy .. yes
Dealt a crap hand .. yes
Doing a good job here .. no
Organised this team .. no
Respect of the players ?

I' m afraid Leonid for me has fallen way short of the required level.
Spot on
 
Sergey refers to naivety on Aina's part last week to ameliorate the managing qualities of Slut. And, Aina is an example of a player who has been criticised on numerous occasions. But please remember Sergey that it is the Slut who insists on naming him in first eleven week in and week out. Aina with his "schoolboy errors" has never been substituted e.g. by Lenihan for even one game.
Precisely what options are available at RB instead of Aina though?

It is the balance of the squad that is so wrong that he doesn't have options in some spots. RB being one of them

"...the reasons that he cannot currently do the job as he'd like"?

The answer to that is simple, the Allams are asset stripping ****s and should **** off now. It won't happen yet unfortunately.

Re that statement
"...the reasons that he cannot currently do the job as he'd like"? Bloody hell, so are we to assume they now admit they made a mistake in selling the majority of the team and regret bringing in the players they did? Surely not, the Allams would never admit to making mistakes. Must be a mix up in translation or something, then again they probably mean the supporters are to blame.

There are rumours in Russia today that Leonid Slutsky in Moscow now. Press writes about long talks with CSKA Moscow general director Roman Babaev.
Reasons are not clear. Work, transfers, friendly meeting or something else. It's unknown so far.

Issue seems to be he is unable to motivate the players at his disposal. Even he admits he can't figure out why the players capitulate & ship poor goals. Is this due to his command of English, his personality (ie too jovial) or the players don't respect him & his methods ? He is finding motivating a team of Championship players far harder than motivating CKSA players. Overall the squad is fairly strong & as nice a bloke as he is Slutsky is failing to motivate them & organise them (our defense is shocking as has been for weeks now but we see no improvement). Get Ian Ashbee in as his assistant ? He is a City legend that commands respect & would be able to fire up the players & get them to show some fight (& the one's who fail to respond can be dropped & sent on their way in Jan)
