unsure if you have understood my post correctly, or if i have misunderstood yours, but i wasn’t referring to how burnley are playing with the ‘low block’ part. much like luton did, which we didnt really deal with well. i was expressing frustration that our games seem to alternate between one...
f***s me off beyond belief how we’re playing at the moment. absolutely nothing seems to come together. we start well with purpose and energy and we’re met with a low block we can’t break down. we don’t and we’re massacred from all angles. either way it’s shite
that’s a few injuries now where a player has been out, returned and then very shortly been unavailable again, in some cases long-term. you do have to wonder what’s going on at lancing for this to be the case, as a cursory glance at the injury situations at other clubs does not indicate that this...
have to say it makes a lot of sense. know to the club already. has a possession based philosophy. isn’t a temperamental italian who will want the board to do things like spend money.
and above all else, graeme souness will be delighted that we’ve heeded his advice and appointed someone who...
all the more reason to try our best to make it count when we do find ourselves in strong positions, then. barber is mentioning about competing for silverware - best strike whilst the iron is hot!
but this is where my frustration lies with the recruitment last summer. because, as much as we’ve fallen short at the end, it’s not like we are a million miles off. west ham managed to sign kudus, chelsea signed palmer, both players we tried for but couldn’t get done for whatever reason. had we...
it absolutely was, it is most likely going down all the way to 8th this season in the first time forever and we have been there or higher pretty much all season.
the simple fact of the matter is that right now, the teams around us also competing for europe have multiple £50M, £60M players...
also for those saying ‘why doesn’t he just switch to a plan b and try and counter teams more without as much possession?’ have you seen how shit our defence has been this season? how well do you think sitting back and allowing teams to attack us would go?
seems a bit silly to me to throw away what was clearly a great project last season just because we’ve looked very low on confidence this season.
some won’t like to hear this but, and RDZ holds as much blame as anyone else, this all comes down to the recruitment last summer being poor. everyone...
