A fan forum of generative AI posts is probably what the club deserves at this point.

It's not just the style though, it's the mentality that comes with it. There's nothing worse than a manager who ingrains a style where the team are scared to take risks in the opposition third and are more willing to take them in their own penalty box. Then the inevitable stray pass in the box happens and the opposition score a goal and it just crushes the players because there is no worse way to concede. Martin won't take any responsibility for the struggles of the team either, like Brendan he is known for being elite at weaseling his way out of the firing line when the team is doing poorly. Genuinely no football fan deserves to have a manager like Russel Martin, his archetype of manager is the worst around and he embodies it perfectly.

He's the worst option we have. Keep Ruud, crawl back on our hand's and knees for Cooper, do anything but bring in the BTEC Brendan Rodgers. We saw how much destruction the actual one dealt to the club and Martin is a worse version of that.

To be fair Nuno has a dropped down below his level as a manager with Wolves before

It's like going hungry but choosing not to eat gravel off the pavement. Yes we're in a poor position but Martin will only make it worse.

Genuinely think i dont watch a game next season if we bring in Martin. The exact archetype of manager that I just despise.

As much as I like him it's another 30+ year old 'PL experienced' player. We need to stop bringing in these sorts of players.

He's one of those players that keeps surprising. Didn't expect him to ever play for us in the championship, didn't expect him to become an established first teamer, didn't expect him to score in the Prem. Fair play to him.

I dont see what everyone else is seeing to be honest. Maddison used to get dogs abuse for slowing down play and playing for fouls like Ayew does but for some reason it's considered good play when Ayew does it. Just shows how 'beige' players like Ayew are viewed differently to players with actual ability due to not having as much expectations on him.

Cooper was worse than Ruud so what does that make him? Cooper was lucky that out of the 12 games he played 2 of them were against Ipswich and Southampton which inflated his points total. Against genuine PL quality opposition he was absolutely useless and what made him worse than Van Nistelrooy is that he had two of our better players, Ricardo and Fatawu, sat on the bench. Had Cooper stayed for the rest of the season we would be on a much lower points tally.

No Fuchs either I think? Or Ulloa?

Forgetting Evans? There's a reason he's already getting minutes for us at 16.

i like how he constantly looks to take players on

If it's van nistelrooy or rohl I would go for rohl, if the alternative is martin or dyche then id stick with van nistelrooy

Just play him against Bournemouth ffs, seems stupid not to.

Ricardo's so good, always tries to play the ball forward.

Ipswich are the latest on the line of Brentford, Brighton etc that were miles behind us a few years ago but have leapfrogged us as a team.

We would have considerably more with players on the wings with pace that dont constantly pass the ball backwards or play for fouls.

Hopefully this is Ayew's last game for the club as well. Such an awful transfer, him being brought in has lowered the gametime of Fatawu, Mavididi, Monga, Evans, Buonanotte, El Khannous, Alves etc. I would be fine if his performances deserved the minutes but we would be better of if we didn't have him.

I would like to start a new era and with the crop of youngsters coming through it feels like one might be around the corner. The fault with how Vardy's career here has ended doesnt lie with Vardy though, it lies with Rudkin and his awful decision making and transfer strategy over the last 5 years. Yes he has declined individually over the last 3 seasons but the majority of his issues stem with the quality of the squad around him plummeting.

With Pearson and some of the 15/16 squad turning up today, it feels like this game is not only a goodbye to Vardy, but a closing curtain on the best era this club has ever had.

It's not about what he wants. Barnes and Dewsbury Hall didn't want to leave but the club convinced them to for financial reasons

One of our ex coaches went on a podcast recently defending Rudkin and saying the fans were overreacting about the academy players not playing as they weren't as good as we thought, going on to say that Nelson was a poor trainer. It was a good insight into the mentality of the club at the moment.

Vardy scores his 200th, gets subbed off and Evans scores his first . Too perfect of a fantasy to come true sadly.
