Ruud van Nistelrooy - New Manager - Official

[Wink84]

Unfortunately we have bigger problems than our manager IMO. He's not helping himself. But what he has to work with him crap. There's some talent, but not enough fight in our squad. Our biggest problems are in the board room and those running the club. They are the reason we have been embarrassed so much this season.

[jayfox26]

Everton are similar to us in many ways. 

 

✅️ poor running of the club for years 

✅️ shite players 

 

The one difference? 

 

They have a competent manager. 

Their previous manager was/is even more competent than the 2 we've had in charge this season.

High line with vesty get this clown gone. The players are fine.

The defence is utter shite mate 

[Sankey93]

Maybe this is why we haven’t spent any money bringing players in because ruud is in trouble and need money to sack him!

The squad we have is absolutely horrific and the recruitment is even worse.

How does anyone stand a chance with this board in charge?

Good point

 

we have to start somewhere 

 

protests against Arsenal seem more relevant and likely than ever

The players really aren't fine. We got relegated with this team AND Barnes, Maddison, Tielemans, Soyuncu plus a younger Vardy. The GK is better but this is a really shite squad and it's ridiculous we are at the end of the window and added nobody apart from a sub RB.  Even if we do add anyone in the last few days we have missed winnable games like this.

I’d take Dyche 

[00rawat]

Whilst he was to work with a squad full of poor quality players,he doesn't help himself picking the same players,week In,week out. Like  he doesn't  bother to see who is playing poor every week.

100%

 

Wanted him in 2022-2023 and he would have kept us up.

I don't think there's a manager out there who get a decent tune out of this group of players we have right now, but like others have said it's a waste of time when the clubs got problems we'll above the manager at this point in time 

There is. He is currently managing Everton though. 

[Finnegan]

I don't really think he can keep his job to be honest. 

 

You don't need a squad full of skilful, talented players for the team to work hard, graft, put a shift in, be organised and hard to beat. 

 

That's the absolute minimum. If the squad isn't good enough, fair enough, whatever. 

 

But it's the manager's job to make sure they're at least doing the minimum and being three down to Everton absolutely isn't the minimum this group of players can achieve. It isn't.

Yep

 

someone to galvanise this current sack of shite we have as players 

[Matt]

Ruud or anyone, this club is unmanageable in it's current state.

I don’t think even he could keep us up with these players 

[Tielemans63]

Not making any changes with your team 3 down at HT......pretty good sign he's got no idea what he's doing.

[KFS]

Oh I know, let’s play a high line with the slowest and Positionally shit center halves in the division and a combined front three age of 100

He wouldn't take us if he has any sense 

[HarryDee8]

Ruud must be slightly  brain dead.

 

If you want to play a high line it don't work with a slow vestergaard. Just getting constantly caught

you forgot to moan about possession based football.

[JimmyC74]

Players need to take responsibility -  some are supposed to be internationals. They have been the pits.

 

Ruud may not be the right manager for the situation we are in but these players continue to make basic errors and show no fight.

 

Maybe we do need the likes of Dyche but, there is something rotten with this group and club that needs sorting out if we are to see success.

[Mickyblueeyes]

You can’t be blown away in two games against teams around us in the first half. He’s got a shit hand but that defending in both game means he has no control

I mean my comments kind of allude to it.

 

It's a remit. Hence "current state".

 

Sorry x Not sorry.

[Iwebema]

I think hes likely to walk, the job is too big for him.

 

To be fair given the absolute disaster of a summer we had it was probably too big for anyone, especially given the lack of support he or any new manager has been given, trying to do it with a disinterested squad that he didn't pick, half of them are already on to their agents saying get me out in the summer please.

 

It can't go on ultimately. All I would say is aim the anger at the right place, the decisions this club have made over the last few years have been atrocious to say the least.
