LCR4: Manchester United vs. Newcastle United - 01/11/23 @ 20:15 (Sky Sports)
TheBrownBottle replied to 54's topic in Football
The only ones I’d be happy seeing rotated are the full backs - the one area where we have good cover, and where the first teamers are clearly knackered. Last I checked we haven’t won enough trophies recently to start sacking off cup competitions -
Still much better than Dubravka, for me
-
I don’t want anyone but Howe managing this club of course - and he’s done an incredible job. But I don’t see the harm in what feels like constructive criticism - every manager can be, ultimately.
-
It’s not that we didn’t spend it elsewhere - I wrote £85m worth of full backs. As in their value in the market was £85m. Irrespective of the intricacies of FFP
-
The players already look like they are burning out - a situation not likely to improve without rotation. If a manager doesn’t utilise the squad, then questions have to be asked about the squad - and when you’ve signed £85m worth of full backs in 12 months and none of them get rotated in when your first choice fullbacks are cabbaged, then questions can be asked.
-
You’re right, but we’re also playing more games per week than we’re likely to at the end of it. The players are dropping like flies with injuries, and those who aren’t look absolutely burned out.
-
It doesn’t if those lads don’t get minutes, though. They won’t develop getting spelks up their arse
-
I think people can grasp it - the issue is whether this was the correct strategy or not. At the moment, the window isn’t looking like a successful one. I was one of those who rated the window highly - but at this moment, it doesn’t look like the right strategy. Hopefully, a different tune will be sung by the time we get to May
-
We can’t have, given the transfer signings in the summer. They’re beginning to look questionable.
-
Steve Bruce would be telling how big the German lads are, how accurate their guns are and how pointy their bayonets are - before telling you to stand behind your own barbed wire to get shot at

Weirdly, it feels both like two points dropped and like we couldn’t complain if we’d lost … -

10 games in. Wouldn’t worry about other teams’ fixtures for now. -

How many games triggers the transfer? -

He can make mistakes, though. -

Yeah, was just thinking this. Several changes in the LC match vs Man Utd -

I do too. Won’t mean he’s had a good game though. -

Trippier is one of our best players on paper. But on the pitch today, if you think he’s been one of our best players there’s zero point in me responding - you have to be on something. -

Not arguing that. But that doesn’t mean he’s infallible. Don’t take it so personally. This is much too conservative from him. -

Then he’s not watching the same game as the rest of us. Can’t see Wolves not scoring again at the moment. -

Burn and Trippier are fucking cooked man Howe. -

I’m convinced Howe has fallen asleep at this point -

Usually subs on 60 like clockwork. Yet I’m watching a completely knackered bunch of players looking burned out and on we play. This is when you start getting in peril of injuries. -

Fucking hell Eddie will you get Trippier off? Another Wolves attack from a poor pass -

Completely unnecessary by Trippier -
