[Albion] Fab OUT

It has to be attitude, I don't like Fabians attitude as I feel he has drained the confidence from too many players, indirectly and maybe even directly too. Let's hope he kicks himself up his fresh skinned arse, and quickly.

Yeah but he turned into a ****, gave up and slagged the model off having signed up to it. Dead man walking from the moment he started mouthing off in post match interviews. Very silly boy
If Hurzeler told his team to give up two goal leads twice and to not bother defending against Palace then it’s on him.
I bet he didn’t, though.

Please name the players he has improved this season to last season? Who do you feel are underperforming this season?

Tactically we’re so easy to play against. This massive gap between the defence and attack makes it easy for teams to play narrow and compact, and press as a unit. Palace won so many second and third balls today, simply by having 2-3 players closer to the ball after the initial tackle - it makes turning over the ball and countering quickly so easy for them. And this template has been followed by almost every team that’s visited us, except of course, the attacking sides which we’ve beaten.
Heaven only knows what the score would’ve been today had Baleba not been playing, as he was the only counter we had to that - a one man wrecking ball against a Palace team of 11 that were well drilled.
It’s shocking.
It's pathetic because it's the sort of short term, kneejerk, idiotic sort of thing that noddy clubs do and playing the long game that Tony does is EXACTLY why we are where we are. It's why we didn't sack Potter when he went on bad runs. Because it's dumb.

Tracksuit managers are all crap can’t think of one decent one.

How often, with a much weaker squad, did we get embarrassed by performances like today against lower league strugglers?

Would love to know what Tony Bloom is thinking tonight, is it, we are going to have to back FH in January with a new defence? Or, best get the Star Lizard manager book out again as they've given me another dud.

Can we be honest about Potter before he played Caceido we weren’t very good. Caceido controlling the tempo improved Bissouma and Mac.

Give him time. I'd understand if we were cut adrift at the bottom of the table, but he's been brought in for the mid- to long-term. Getting rid now would be a mistake, IMO.

Happy to run with whatever TB thinks but I confess to thinking he’s out of his depth at the moment and I am disappointed in him.
How often did we, for example, win away at Newcastle, come back from behind against Man City and Spurs? With the highest amount of injuries in the league and the impossibility of playing a settled team we are doing ok. Trust me, I'm as gutted by today and our bad run as anyone but calling for a manager's head at this stage is so mind bogglingly stupid that I almost can't comprehend it.

He's in a new league, with a bunch of new players and a load of injuries. He'll learn and hopefully improve. Hence why I say give him time.
I didn't see anyone complaining when we were winning and top four. Maybe that's when he WASN'T out of his depth? Or was that down to the players and now it's solely the manager's fault?
