We are nowhere near as good as people think. But still a bit early to go at the manager haha

Not quite yet - nothing to be overly positive about, but having only had weeks with the players and not really knowing which players he is going to be allowed to keep he has not done anything to get overly concerned about either.

 

Our Midfield looks weak and if he had planned to have Ndidi to start the season, suddenly there is a big difference

[coolhandfox]

Needs time, but you have to adapt to the players at you disposal, we are trying to get average full backs who are poor on the ball rotating into the 8s position.

[Dahnsouff]

Need at least 2 more midfielders Marti

[Tielemans63]

Must wonder what he's walked in to. Club is beyond a shambles.

Had 1 month less with the squad at this point than Enzo had

 

Not really a surprise we look a lot more all over the place

[blue army 1988]

Got to give the manager a slight benefit of the doubt because he's not been here that long.

But the players should have done better, mich better.

[honeybradger]

Have we regressed further from last season under Cooper and Van Nistelrooy? 

[Fox85]

Early days yet but from what I've seen so far I reackon we will finish around 12th in the league.

 

Thats without a points deduction 

[Foxin_Mad]

Very concerning. Thing is the manager is not the problem, it’s the useless bunch of ***** running the club. You could have Pep here and we’d still be shit under these willy pullers

[Tuna]

I feel sorry for him with this squad and ownership.

[Lionator]

Another captain watching the iceberg approach the titanic. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

We're not playing with the intensity I was expecting. Hopefully that improves.

[LFEFox23]

He’s dealing / working with some real shite, we all seen the gutless performances they put in last season.

 

My only slight criticism of him / worry - is this Skipp Soumare partnership he appears to like, he needs to cotton onto these pair real quick. Skipp looked like he’d won a competition tonight and don’t even get me started on Soumare.

It’s like we’ve hired a perfectly adequate sculptor but rather than a block of marble we’ve given him a wet, pile of dog shit and expect him to chisel out a statue.

[studentofthegame]

I'm not going to pile on yet but it's a concerning start

[Simonb]

Actually like him. Makes changes for the better.. not really his fault hes inherited some absolute shit

[cityfanlee23]

Should I open the Society doors again?

[Mike Oxlong]

Disappointed with the limit of attacking intent thus far 

[Oldblueyes]

It is his selection that caused this defeat He should know the strength and weakness of our players even at this stage. The first half was terrible.

[em9999]

New signings are desperately needed but they ain't coming .. would have lost to Sunderland anyway 

[Pliskin]

It’s not his fault, he’s inherited a squad largely on the decline, with owners who are petrified of PSR. No one is coming in, and we’re likely to lose more players. Make no mistake about it, this team is on the slide. It’s shades of the relegation team under Rodgers. 

[GorlestonFox]

If he plays Skipp and Soumare together again then he's gonna have trouble 

[SecretPro]

Should have waited for Rohl.

[Foxin_Mad]

Maybe we just have to hit rock bottom before things improve. We really aren’t very good. Since Cooper it’s been hard to blame that on the manager when we’ve signed **** all players.
