Form since Christmas - poor

Recommended Posts

Posted

We over achieved in the first half of the season. We have not got a plan b for some strange reason.

What bothers me most we pay our management team a fortune to work out systems and formations to win us games. We have become predictable, Rodgers needs to have a rethink try something different.

The wingers at the club have been a big disappointment this season all of them. If we scrape into the champions league I would re build our forward line so we don’t have just Vardy scoring all our goals.

There's a possible parallel to the 2013 end of season under Pearson, that went into a complete tailspin, stumbled and bumbled into the play offs to the catastrophic game at Watford. 

 

We walked the league the next year. A much more battle hardened set of players

 

Sometimes teams need pain

I'm as baffled as everyone else with what's happened to our form in 2020.

 

We've taken 13 points from 11 games since Jan 1st.

Keep  that up and we won't finish  top  6.

 

We seem so  dull and negative (a couple of games notwithstanding).

 

We stuffed Soton 9-0 last year, and we blew them off the park.

On  Saturday i saw them  roll over Watford with ease playing almost EXACTLY like we did against them.

 

Go  figure.

Team I can liken us to most at the minute is Bournemouth. No cutting edge going forward. Not terrible at the back but always likely to concede the odd goal. Its a recipe for disaster if you look likely to concede at least one, but never look like scoring. We seem to have lost balance in the team. And we seem to be passing the ball for passings sake, often playing the receiver into trouble, where they get tackled or they have to make some half arsed attempt to flick the ball on and we lose it immediately. Look at most other teams, not just Man City, but Wolves, Chelsea, Man Utd etc, thr passing in calm and considered  with aim to shift the opposition around, and then when they spot a chance, they speed up. They also know when to launch it and not play out from the back. We back ourselves into a corner so often and then struggle to pass the ball out and invite pressure.

Exactly, when pressed we just seem to panic and give the ball away

About the pay-offs? Of course not.

 

About the pattern of the squad having poor runs around the same time under several managers? Absolutely. I think it's bigger than just one manager and why Ranieri and Puel weren't the only reasons to blame at the time.

Puel hasn’t exactly been fantastic run since he left. It was clear he couldn’t communicate any tangible goals and directions to the players, staff, media, and supporters.

 

And, as painful as it was, we all know Claudio lost the plot. Shakey was never a PL manager. 
 

It is bigger than one manager but not in the way you’re imagining it. 

Sometimes love turns sour, and sometimes you gotta get through a few rebounds before you find the right one. 😜

No, I just said we're third :)

Been 3rd 31 games in doesnt mean anything though, where we are at the end does.

 

Tell norwich they had a great season in 1994-95 as they reached second place.

Sure it must have been posted somewhere on this forum but I have't seen it.... why the **** did we not strengthen in the winter? I know we still knew how to win games back then but it wasn't as though we knew we were limited with our options on the wing

The Southampton and Burnley games were crucial in things turning negative. We managed to win convincingly at West Ham and Newcastle, took the lead in both matches above and lost both.
