trooky

Daka is ****ing useless, Aluko's out of position but not covered himself in any glory either. Okoli has let the team down, but why was he on his own on the half way line, Nelson and Thomas were so far out of position. The squad has no leaders, and we desperately need reinforcements.

No chance this will be fixed, squad is short of depth and quality

I don't understand why we haven't got at least 1 midfield player and a striker on loan in January. We've been short all season in those positions and now we're desperate. Winks hasnt looked interested all season and I don't see anything changing under King. This all goes back to the fall out with RVN and he's effectively been on strike since then.

He'll move even slower in that heat🥵

We're that short in midfield, he might need to put his boots back on as well😂

Not very inspiring for the future, or nothing we don't already know. His english isn't great so not a very good communicator which doesn't help either.

We're not going to get the manager we want, may as well get used to it FT, and the new man will still play Winks, Luke Thomas, Vesty, Ayew, Daka, BDR, Soumare...... Fresh start and all that...

Sam Allardyce😂 is where we're at. They don't stand a chance, FT will abuse them as soon as they pick Ayew, Vesty, Soumare, Luke Thomas, Winks........... Personally, we should appoint King or another interim until the end of season so the new manager has a cleaner slate in the summer.

Hopefully he's paying his own compensation😂

No group of players at any club have been able to adopt Russellball.

Nelson at LB is a consequence of Luke Thomas making countless mistakes. Ayew and Daka have both played up front, those are his options. He could maybe play Mavididi but has he ever played there during his career, also his finishing is erratic. Marti is out of his depth, has tried 99% of the players, but never changed his system for some reason.

That's a very real possibility, because with each recent managerial appointment they've been worse.

He needs to change formation, because he's tried every combination in a 4, having dropped all players at some point in the season. The problem has been whoever comes in doesn't raise the standards, they just drop down to the level of the others. Marti can't get anyone to play for him.

No

The running of the club since the PSR penalty has been shambolic and even worse than the period that lead to the first breach. 1. The arrogance to take on the PL and win on a technicality knowing your fail or submit your accounts late for the next PSR period is insane. 2. Continue to pay high wages on mediocrity. 3. Last season in the PL were were -43.8m euro on net transfers of money we don't have. 4. Shocking managerial appointments and wasted more money on severance pay. The board have continued to act in a reckless manor and put the long term future of the club at risk, without learning from mistakes of the past or making any structural changes in the organization.

We were in exceptional circumstances. Everybody expected a huge points deduction and with no money to spend either because of PSR - we needed to right-off that season to reset and sort out our finances for good. It would have been an easy narrative for the board to galvanize the club, if they could be bothered to communicate to fans. The club was mismanaged causing the PSR non-compliance, but the management of the club since then has been even worse. We broke the rules and should have just accepted our punishment instead of winning an appeal against the PL on a technicality and dragging the whole episode out for 3 seasons. The insanity of that season is that the board actually thought the squad was equipped to stay up. We've continued to spend money we don't have, offering stupid wages or extensions for mediocrity to the point we can't afford to sign players or sack the manager. We're now expecting a points deduction in a lower division with a very real risk of relegation to league 1, a genius move by the club and to make matters worse the muppet in charge hasn't changed anything.

The reason I thought we appointed Cooper was for the following season because we were nailed on for relegation with or without a points deduction.

Ricky P is even worse because he's club captain and our leader but doesn't demonstrate it on the pitch with his performance levels. There's no room for sentiment in sport, he should have been replaced a while ago.

It's impossible to defend anybody associated with the club this season. We have been a shambolic disgrace and need gutting from top to bottom. We're going to waste this generation of youth talents because we have zero leadership around them. Fcuking abysmal club.

Ricky and Nelson were at fault for the first, Ricky not closing down the cross and Nelson being bullied by Simms. Thomas was diabolical for the 2nd but Page didn't do well either, he could have headed the looping ball clear. The whole team is defensively weak, our players are soft as shit, we have zero leaders, nobody looks like their playing for the shirt or putting a shift in. I would sell everyone in this team, they're mentally weak not good enough.

Nelson at fault for first, he's marking Simms. LT is on the goaline.

It would be interesting to hear Marti's take on this, is it down to his tactics, lazy players or the lack of high intensity fitness work in pre-season before he joined?

Blokes a knobhead, walking away from the best job he'll get.

To fix this shit, we need a new manager and about 15 players minimum. ****ing garbage, we haven't had a performance all season. The more time Marti spends with the team the worse we get.

Thomas a ****ing liability, awful performance, can't even do the basics.
