The Butcher Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Just too limited. Plan A is the only plan. It's great when it works. More or less useless when it doesn't. Reckon the board and Mitchell will have a list of potential replacements drawn up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago We’re just not very good at all if there ain’t a lot of transitions in the game overall. Not too surprising when you consider the players we’ve signed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago When he first came one of his biggest strengths was that he'd studied the modern game with Atletico and really seemed to have his finger on the button with regards to the gegenpress. But football has evolved in the last two seasons. Every top team has a number 10 and can open up teams that play a low block (which is anyone we play who isn't one of the top teams). He doesn't seem to be evolving this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Disasterclass from Howe tonight, right up there with a 2nd half Bruce would be proud of. Starting to be really fucking annoying he isn't bothering to try fix our set piece problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erikse Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) 13 minutes ago, Dokko said: Doesn't like to change an undefeated team. Seems like it, but the whole Burn thing was every game regardless of result and performance. Will be interesting to see whether we make a change for the next one. Generally I'd like the lineups to be a little more proactive. Edited 4 hours ago by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Prontonise Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Should take responsibility for that 2nd half, his changes were awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago I think I’m just about done to be fair. That was the definition of a manager who paints by numbers. Clueless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Must be nigh on a year now that our midfield has been like a sieve, usually far bigger problem in away games but was on full show that 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir_9 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) Last season we had the injury crisis and Europe, so for me he gets a pass - again, last season. This season we've just looked disjointed and out of ideas in half the games we've played. We turn into the most boring, predictable and blunt side when things are not going to plan, even against shit sides. Not good.

Erikse Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) 3 minutes ago, Ronaldo said: We’ve been figured out. He doesn’t have the answers. West Ham knew exactly what lineup we were going to play, and exactly how we were going to play it. It's not really a secret that we will go the exact same route for the next one when we win. It has worked before, mind, but feels like it's getting too predictable at this point. Edited 4 hours ago by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JigsawGoesToPieces Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Been saying this for a while, needs to swallow his pride and freshen up the coaching staff, we have gone stale. If that means having to let people go then so be it, if we want to be competing with the best we need a best in class coaching staff not sticking with Eddies mates because hes too stubborn to change. Wont happen though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago I said in the match thread that it's happening too many times that level of performance and questions have to be asked. It's not a one off and the same mistakes are being made on and off the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

beardsleymagic Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago No kneejerk reaction and I'm not calling for his head, but he has to share the blame for that. Subs were strange as they didn't seem to have any reason to them. for example why move Gordon up top for about five minutes disrupting the team if you're going to bring Wilson on a few minutes later? I know it's probably just me that is bothered by stuff like this but the whole second half tactics just seemed slapdash and clueless. Again, not calling for his head or anything but he got it wrong on quite a few levels tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
