Though our squad is both unbalanced and peppered with shite, and I acknowledge he's having to turn around what Pardew and Carver have done, I refuse to believe he couldn't be doing better than being in the relegation zone after half the season. 17 points from 19 matches is absolutely pitiful.

 

I don't detest him as a person (yet) but he's not fucking good enough. Next.

He isn't the right man we need to move on asap but the club will bottle it and hope for the best (carver) . We only show up when the tv camaras are on and get outclassed by teams around us * west fucking brom had 22 goes at goal  :frantic: :frantic:

 

Bournemouth was pure luck*

If he does go it'll be hilariously pathetic to watch them cold calling all the managers in the phone book (that they didn't fuck off first time round). Probably just not bother and leave it til the end of the season again, save on the phone bill.

Read the other day he's not abandoned the possession-based stuff, that's still the long term plan but he just doesn't think it's in this lot and is trying to play to their strengths on the counter. Gone way too far, obviously, as the whole set up is based on transitions now whereas we seemed to be mixing it up more before that dreaded international break. I don't actually think his selections are negatively-minded, he just keeps his 4 best attacking players higher up the pitch for opportunities to break as he thinks that's our best chance of getting in on goal while trying to keep our defensive unit more solid. You'd like to think with our coaching knowledge they'd now realise we have to start changing things...

While i'd love to see him get sacked asap it's really not going to happen.  He's mates with Carr and on the board so that's 50% of our board who'll be in his corner.  Bob will just concur with the others and Charnley is a spineless little lickspittle.

 

It was (another) stupid appointment that we went for because he was cheap, desperate and mates with the head scout.  Pathetic way to run a football club.

Yep. Someone said it elsewhere too but when was the last time we had a manager capable of moulding a team to be more than the sum of its parts? SBR and a brief Keegan stint probably. Other clubs have managers who can do it but we seem to go out of our way to employ managers who need perfect conditions to be able to put a fucking team together.

IMO we would have got there eventually if he had persevered with what he was doing at the start of the season. Just results scared him out of it.

Not convinced myself, it never looked like developing imo, never went past pissing about with the ball in defence.

 

Aye he got far too much credit at the start of the season because he wasn't Pardew or Carver.

Chris Hughton did a fine job. We had a great team spirit back then.

He has improved fuck all, if anything we look worse. The football is disgusting to watch and substitutions left too late. He seems scared to drop certain players and we are generally playing long ball now albeit fucking badly
