I never want us to lose but the thought of Cooper gone would be a relief so we could at least try and get a professional manager in. I predict a 1-2 defeat and Cooper staying in to November at least unfortunately.

It's a bloody expensive priority point

He'll walk player of the season

Some times you need to tinker to get your best 11 - This was my thought in terms of Arsenal away & at home, Man City home and away etc

I was thinking about this and when we play a back 5 with Fatawu has left wing back with Mavi in front. Justin and Ricky down the right. I appreciate this may be bordering madness but I think it would work as both pairs have a nature chemistry and it'd make us strong down both sides. Winks and Skip anchoring midfield. Bring Coady in to marshal the defence alongside Faes and Okoli. Madness I know and it's very early in the morning but just a hunch that I think it's work OR at least work better than some of clueless Cooper's carp

This lad could be better than Kasper as he's more orthodox - I said that a while ago He should be our next £30+ sale out of the door - Absolute mustard

No - I wish it would to stop me buying tickets because of my addiction to LCFC even though I know it's totally no good for me at the moment

Yes I can see why our support can be compared to theirs

4.31 expected goals is absolutely pathetic - miles adrift of even Southampton

I'm an absolute doom monger at the moment in that people will expect us a) to put in a much better performance and b) win this one I think they are going to be very disappointed I'm expecting this one to be a real reality check for all of our fans as the total clueless nature of our manager fully dawns on some.

FM don't even go there. To have kept MA for another year rather than to have signed this chump on vastly inflated wages is unforgivable

I'm afraid you're not even being defeatist there. Until there is fundamental change of those making some of these ludicrous decisions from the top and certainly on the playing side this unfortunately is purely a rest bite in our inevitable decline. I'm just hoping we don't get another 2002 to 2008 period although what came after was the most incredible ride ever of course.

This bloke is the incarnation of Bertrand. When buying an older player you have to be absolutely certain that he still has the desire, that he is not injury prone and you have to make sure you don't put him on a ludicrously long contract. I expect him to be injured any time soon A truly shocking signing

Agreed - the alarm bells were ringing from the off - nice bloke but an exceedingly poor football manager

Lose next week though, which I am expecting, and they’ll definitely be pressure on him even from the most deluded of fools

Some people would argue over the colour of shite

He's an imbecile

It’s not something I could ever bring myself to do but I’d be chucking no stones your way. I’m coming round to anyone but Cooper - he really is the lousiest manager we’ve had for years - up there with mad dog and Sousa

This man is a total fool

Absolute shite - this bloke is bloody useless

Rather have Beryl Reid

Unfortunately you are are spot on. Your eyes and ears do not deceive you and he has already made far too many errors of judgement (I can take the odd one or even a few but it really is multiple and every single single week) to be considered anything other than totally and utterly incompetent. Whatever he did elsewhere is meaningless and you must live in the present and he is making serious gaff after serious gaff and needs to go. Some people are saying give him time but all you're going to get are more and more gaffs and I predict serious player and fan unrest.

Pearson is very charismatic and always struck me as a mans man and a players manager - If you were a big time Charlie, shirker or a serial under achiever generally speaking your feet wouldn't touch the ground with him. My gawd how we could do with a prime Pearson now

Not always - I think Cooper has a charisma i.e a likability factor but it camouflages his huge incompetence

I'd give him time if there were a clear plan, a clear method of play, good young hungry signings which may come good, a clearly motivated team, good in game management, a clear understanding that he's correctly reading the game and either forcing the issue giving other managers problems during the game or even reacting to what is clear in front of him and that we are well trained and are clear and committed to a game plan. I see absolutely no sign of progress whatsoever and as a team we are weaker and have gone alarmingly backwards. The warning signs have been there with previous managers and we have reacted way too late - we need to react now if we have any chance of survival that is obvious to anyone who has watched every game over the last 2 months.
