Pilko Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I wouldn't get rid of him, now or in the summer. Today was crap though, similar to Brentford in that it was just a total mess with soft goals pissed away. There are far too many players letting him down. He needs to be super ruthless this summer moving on some of the old guard who've been brilliant for us but just aren't cutting it any more - Trippier, Joelinton, Willock, Pope and Murphy are top of that list. There's also Gordon and Tonali who have been poor and are prime candidates to fund a rebuild. Hopefully a properly organised window with the right structure where we can make some good moves and a bit of actual time off this summer for Eddie will allow him to come back refreshed, have a proper pre-season to implement things and put together a more consistent campaign in the league next year. As for this season, we may as well go all in on the cups now, the players clearly just aren't as arsed about the league despite what he keeps saying in press conferences about how desperate he/they are to improve things. That all said. The mentality of the side, giving away soft as shite goals all the time and constantly conceding within minutes of scoring a goal is a fucking shambles this season and that has to be down to him as much as the players. He keeps saying we'll learn from it and we never do. Next time we get into a European competition of any kind, he needs to demonstrate an improved ability to juggle the schedule. He can't keep saying "we don't get any training time, that's why" for ever. It's magnified this season by the late loss of Isak and needing to bed in new signings lately on and I'm sympathetic of it. And finally - please, please, stop targeting so many athletes and find a few lads who can pass the fucking ball this summer. The collective technical ability of this team is absolutely honking when you consider the money spent on it. He's still the man for us, no doubt, but there's some room for improvement and he shouldn't be above criticism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go look after losing to city etc. I'm only critical when we are not competing with Everton, villa - sides we have to be the equals of or better if we have hopes of Europe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milburn Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Fans of clubs like Aston Villa, Man United and Tottenham would be screaming for the manager to be sacked if their team were languishing in 12th place come March. In here, though, anyone who dares to question it just gets called an idiot. I’m done. He will forever be a legend, but we need a new manager come next season. Howe out!

Mikky Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 How many soft goals have we conceded this season?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 He can’t legislate for some criminal individual mistakes. But we’ve been all over the place defensively and conceded shit, soft goals all season. Considering we have basically never been like that since he has been here. There is something amiss there. We used to be solid as fuck seeing out leads or hanging on. Now we just crumble and concede for fun. Yet again we have no clue how to break down a team that sits deep. But then most teams would and we put ourselves in that position with said shit goals. Never even had a chance to build momentum. As we just conceded straight after scoring twice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) I back him, but that Everton third was poor. Not sure I’ve seen a quicker goal after another team has scored. It’s the type of thing we’ve done all season. We’ve had a bit of time on the training pitch too. Edited February 28 by Rafalove Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you are saying, but for me I just don’t think he’s good enough to manage a team playing in Europe. This feels like the end of the cycle and it’s probably time to give someone else a go.

If he is to stay it’s a MASSIVE SQUAD OVERHAUL - he imo isn’t capable of implementing it because I know the likes of Pope, Murphy and Trippier will still be here next season.
