My point is Probably some truth with a massive side of embellishment as always Chinese whispers Tale as old as time
I'd be v surprised if there's no substance to it. And it would explain some players disappearing/turning to **** who were key and playing well prior to the break. Too much of a coincidence.
We were only one of the biggest spenders cos we gad replace the whole team. If we were one of the biggest spenders and only brought in a few players then fair enough
Simultaneous drop offs in multiple individuals performance is usually a result of the club pissing on it's chips in one way or another. Criticising players going out is a bit like criticising the pope being catholic. And they haven't just started doing it since the international break.
Its an easy claim to make Our performances havent really dropped off a cliff in reality We massively over performed our expected goals a few months ago vs sheff united Almost every single win and loss under selles has been by 1 goal And when its such fine margins They swing the other way easily
There are only a select few players I'd want back next season, providing we stay up. Pandur, Millar, Matazo, Belloumi and Hughes. Even if we managed to stay up, we probably will end up selling them anyway, especially Pandur. I don't know what wages Amrabat is on but I'd keep him around for cameos if his wages aren't too expensive on the books.
This seems like the best thread to put this. I've just read that the Wednesday massive are after Vardy and he is interested in going there
Didn’t these exact treehouse rumours come about in the years under Phil Brown with Jimmy Bullard granted that was a different venue then and it was actually true. Just feels like someone’s used the same rumour
Jones has started two games since the break Its purely tactical He prefers egan Lincoln has been playing MORE since the break? Gelhardt has started every single game since the break Pedro started the first 4 games after the break when he wasnt suspended
Not so much 'disappeared' as in not selected, disappeared as in no where near as effective. All at the same time. Not only that, sources confirming who are rarely far wide of the mark. And no, I'm not seeing any change in tactical intent, I'm just seeing players who were at least performing to some extent now not showing any great intent.
Convenient The players you mentioned are playing just as much as usual Apart from jones And again Are the performances actually worse? Every win and loss is by 1 goal bar 3 games
They've put in one decent half of football since the break. If that's not a significant change then I don't know what is. They rarely followed up one stinker with another before, and they weren't playing like a relegation side before. They consistently have been since. But oh no, it's the manager who's decided on a whim to go all defensive for a laugh when he didn't need to in bradyland.
No We just havent been getting the results compared to before We create barely any chances Its why every loss and win is by 1 goal Its the finest swings But we can do the embellishment if you want
So you think he's gone from telling them to not sit back and get another when they score to don't score and play for 0-.0? He's setting them up the same way as before. He's just not getting the same performances from key players as before.
