I have just been reading his open and frank comments at the 'Seagulls Over Larrrrndon' meet up and overall the majority even though open and honest still looks to me like a total pile of shite and delusion of the highest order.
Every single player we have brought into the club to replace the players lost over the past two transfer windows has either been worse or much worse than what we lost & for him to carry on saying that we have a very competitive championship squad to me is simply ridiculous and overall I don't see much reason to be positive baring one scraped and lucky win against a very poor Wigan team. This surely is a pride thing were battling with, he should be coming out and at least touching on the fact of addressing that our recruitment policy is flawed with sweeping changes required adding that we messed up by dismantling a very decent team and replacing them with plan C targets that no-one else really wanted.
Judge me at the end of the transfer window - The judge finds you and the recruitment team guilty of poor signings and guilty of not managing to nail down the A list targets such as Clayton, Grabban, Ward.
The likes of Kuschack, Ward and Upson in defence has left us with no leaders at the back. The loss of Bridcutt and replacement with Holla hasn't worked and the loss of Ulloa and no real target man.
I do feel for Sami slightly in all of this, he has inherited a poor group of players with no real leaders in the team, no1 stepping up and driving us forward and I think he's out of his depth. We look like a ghost ship with a skeleton crew going aimlessly through the seas with no1 behind the wheel guiding us.
It just shows you how quickly a team can fall from grace, I appreciate the club is still learning it's way into the world of the championship but I fear this season is going to prove that were going to learn the hard way!
