Popular Post Pliskin Posted 29 September 2024 Popular Post Posted 29 September 2024 19 minutes ago, Viva said: I’m not remotely suggesting Ipswich should sack McKenna. The fact of the matter is that they are below us in the table and will have had a worse start than us. All three Championship clubs are struggling as anyone should have predicted. There is a massive gulf between the two leagues. Tell me Premier League team apart from Southampton and Ipswich where we have a better squad? It’s not as black and white and “who’s got the better squad”, the problem with Cooper is he doesn’t maximise the potential in his squad. And I think it’s clear that he is not got a grip on this squad. Im sorry but how can you defend what he did against Everton? It’s possibly the worst tactical management I’ve seen for years…… deciding not to attack a 39 year old right footed winger playing at left back? Scandalous. 12 1

We have three decent fixtures coming up too. so we do have a squad capable then right and yeah i call for him to go, as frankly hes been woeful. its plain to see. so if we say get 1 point from these upcoming games will you be pleased then? we sort of have decent fixtures but i dont think we'll get much, i dont see us getting much from the bournemouth game, then we've got Southampton away where imo we cant lose but wouldnt shock me if we did then Forest at home, who have been decent this season so far in real terms 2 wins from them 3 but going by how we've looked under clueless cooper. 1 point from 9, but i guess we should be happy with that

You can clearly see that after the first few games that we don't have a strong squad. We don't even even have a player who particularly stands out. It wouldn't matter who replaces this guy, we'll still struggle this year. You can clearly see that he's trying to create a seige mentality to survive, but that takes time, its a mind set. We chased and chased yesterday and nearly got a point, it was a gallant effort, because that's all we can do against top teams these days, if we try to out pass through them they'll walk through us. Back the manager and the team because only hard work and some luck will keep us up this year. A siege is an entirely defensive action in the hope that the opposition doesn't break through.This is Cooper's approach to how we approach games and isn't going to be enough to keep us up

When we've gone behind and the players have had to abandon this Abersywth Allardyces crimes against football and actually go for the game, we've looked able to challenge in this league. It won't happen unless we get a manager who is prepared to actually utilise his squad properly rather than having his good attackers playing 3 minutes a match while Ayew and Reid can stink the place out though. He's creating a siege mentality by just blaming the referee 24/7 because he needs distractions from his god awful tactics. Are you talking about the God awful tactics that took us three minutes from an incredible draw when people were talking about a massive thrashing. If we'd have seen those minutes through everyone would have been lauding him as a master tactician ! 1

Could easily be bottom 3 come Monday 10pm and it's where we'd deserve to be on performances (our xPts would have us 19th). 1

I think we can win games if we play our best players with a positive approach rather than being so negative and risk averse. 1

safetosurfthisbeach Posted 29 September 2024 Posted 29 September 2024 We should be top of the league and winning every game comfortably. Cooper out. 1

Winstonthedog Posted 29 September 2024 Posted 29 September 2024 There are 2 inevitables here .... Cooper will get the push .. when .. is up to Top, secondly we will get relegated ... from top to bottom things within the club are not good ... from leadership to results
BigGibbo Posted 29 September 2024 Posted 29 September 2024 6 minutes ago, marcymarc666 said: So what tactics would you have suggested with our current outfit? Counter attack. It's in our DNA. Rodger's was the anomaly and in the end a failed experiment. Look at the stats. Yesterday we only got lucky from a few desperate attacks after it was already too late and they should have been out of sight. Good luck & performances of the season from Hermansen & Justin are the only reason it wasn't 7/8 to nil/1. 1

Do you honestly think our team could have done better yesterday? I don’t think anyone thought we would win yesterday however the team selection, tactics, players arguing, continual excuses and poor performance levels (every game) is not a sign of a manager having any clue or control. Fatawu is too good to be sitting on the bench, if this continues he will leave. 1

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.
suffolk fox Posted 29 September 2024 Posted 29 September 2024 Would have been interesting if the Arsenal player had been red carded as he should have been with 20 minutes to go. 1st goal was a foul on Vardy too again the ref gave nothing. Ref was an absolute homer and a joke at this level, dishing cards out like confetti mainly to our players. It was a valiant effort yesterday, especially 2nd half. Getting bored of this Cooper out nonsense now, genuinely believe some of you lot should support another team. oh through the good times and the BAD........and repeat, which laughably some of you lot sing........lol. 1
Iran Posted 29 September 2024 Posted 29 September 2024 I had enough of Cooper man... Nothing but a cowardice coach who isn't fit for this level! Hope we are looking at Roger Schmidt and the likes. 1
