So what is wrong with it then, happy that we conceded two goals in space of 5 minutes against Leicester away? nearly threw it away against Bournemouth away? Wolves at home?

Go on explain it then, I dare you.....
I highlighted your O’Reilly comment.
He wasn’t thrown under the bus. He was selected to play and happened to get taken out by an idiot and injured. It could have been any of them.

Way too many issues to simply pin this on Hurzeler.

We spent a ton on midfielders this summer whilst getting rid of our two starters from our first European campaign last season. None have stepped up. If you think it’s fair to take a long look at FH for this malaise, then you’ve also got to look at our recruitment in the summer. It’s been poor for the amount invested.
The recruitment is very culpable, but the manager chose to go away to the team 3rd in the table and start with 1 midfielder. Absolute dick move.

He should of been on the bench from the start, not thrown into the deep end. This is coming from the man who never had a injury at Celtic, which is a physical league!!!

I am not a fan of piling onto the manager or team at a bad result but the trend here is not positive. No idea what the dressing room is like but the way they are playing seems like it’s not gelling and is only going one way.

It has to change quickly or FH needs to go.

Every single one of of who saw that team sheet knew what was going to happen. We aren’t all idiots. That’s 100% on him and he is clearly out of his depth.
100%

Having previously stood up for the guy, I think it's a FH out situation now. Lots of tactical naivety on display - but today was the worst. Having two experience international midfielders on the bench, even if they are half fit, and then having Hinshelwood who is half fit as the ONLY midfielder on the pitch is just terrible and naive.

He also went back to his usual formation in the second half and we conceded 4. Hopefully a wake up call to some that we have a low budget and can’t compete with the current top 7. We don’t have the quality.

Look today was dogshit. I’m not happy. But way more problems than just the manager. Something’s wrong this season, that’s clear, and without speculating too wildly, perhaps dumping a manager adored by his players wasn’t great for morale. I didn’t expect us to go a step further immediately post RDZ and am happy to write off a mid table finish this season as somewhat successful despite some dreadful individual results like today.
