On Iraola: Transfermarkt reckons he spent roughly £91 million less than Hurzeler in his first season and has splurged about £10.5m less than him during his time at Bourneo.

He's in his 2nd season there, finished 12th last season, and they're 6 points ahead of us. Seems a brilliant manager but give FH some time ffs!

To be where forest and Bournemouth are now and I think that’s where Bloom wants to be as well hence the large spend . With so many of the so called bigger teams having a bad season we have really missed a trick this season
Just my view but with a better manager we would be top 6 top 4 this season
in fairness to fab, both of those teams actually bothered investing in the defence

Hurzeler is not liked within the changing room and that’s a FACT.

He’s fallen out with Danny Welbeck and Lewis Dunk over the treatment of Evan Ferguson and it’s caused a massive rift within the squad.

Im not going to disclose my source by I can assure you that everything is not at all rosy at the moment with a group of players making their feelings known to PB and TB.

I think Hurzeler has been given a tough task but our home form is shocking - down with the relegation candidates. Unfortunately for Hurzeler most fans only attend the home games and therefore he is getting flak. I do wonder what him , the players and backroom staff work on all week. To create nothing , apart from an early Lamptey ball across the face of the goal, all game is woeful.
It’s not, we’re 12th in a home results only table. 15 points from 11 games is nowhere near the relegation candidates form.

It’s shocking that under our last 3 managers this issues haven’t been sorted I think the issue is we are the softest team in the PL I bet Southampton turn us over at st marys but then we go and win at Manchester City really needs sorting us 3 home wins all season is shocking
It is shocking but unless people don't rate any of our last 3 managers then it clearly isn't a simple problem to solve if they've all struggled. I guess just more practice matches of attack against defence. I'm just pleased we are at least trying to be a progressive, forward thinking team as opposed to a blocking, disruptive, anti-football, dull team like Everton.

Potter had so much more credit in the bank and we had some excellent results that season.
I think your memory is different to mine. For comparison, we’re currently on 34 points, after 23. In the 21-22 season we didn’t reach 34 points until game 31, which was that terrible 0-0 at home to a terrible Norwich team.

So why do you think we struggle against sides like Everton and Southampton and why does FH never start with the same Xl to win 3-1 at old Trafford and then make changes apart from Pervis at left back makes no sense if it ain’t broke why try and fix it
Same reason we have for this pattern we’ve had with numerous head coaches in a row.

Genuine question - what other stuff has your source got bang on that you can evidence form previous posts on here? Has to be a player of first team coach and mental if they’re talking to people tbh…

If Potter had this squad that never would have happened, it’s night and day. Look who he had as attacking options compared to FH. The problem with Potter was we created loads but couldn’t convert, now we don’t create hardly anything.

I see one of our players quite regularly and no way he’d talk about the dressing room and I wouldn’t dream of asking him.

Even if he did, I wouldn’t dream of posting it on a fans forum!!

We've struggled against these sort of teams under both Potter and RDZ - they never solved the low block issue - and I bet FH wouldn't have changed the team if Pervis wasn't injured and Minteh wasn't late.
Do you mean when we battered Wolves 6-0 or Southampton 3-1 or or putting 5 past Leicester & Sheffield Utd?

He spent £200m after selling £250m. I’m not an accountant but…
It’s like selling your Porsche, making do with an Audi for a short period and then upgrading to a Bentley but putting a young incompetent driver in the driving seat who doesn’t know how to handle its potential.

Other than scoring 9 goals last week alone. Today however was dire and I agree we don't currently create enough chances.
