Ricky to get a red in the first 5 minutes of the second half?

Managers are meant to motivate and get a tune out of players 

I'm sure they should be able to motivate themselves like we all do in our work!

 

I work nights with no management yet we manage to motivate ourselves for 12 hours and make sure everything is ok

I would sooner the original Skippy the bush kangaroo playing in that no.6 role. He offers so little. At least you know Hamza is playing when central.

There was a point where a loose ball came to Skipp, of course he was facing our goal but he could’ve passed to JJ who was next to him and the you get was on.  Nope got to recycle it.  Such a waste of money and time. Everyone can relate to having a useless work colleague that gets paid more but HR can’t get rid of.

The problem is he’s just another person to play a back pass not drive forwards.  We need James next to Winks, it was showing good early signs but Marti decides he needs to change it up, yet okay the same boring tactics.

 

Again it’s too slow because of JV, the Enzo ball doesn’t work when you have players who can’t control or pass. 
 

Okoli is embarrassing and Ricardo crossed the halfway line once,m but Fatawu wanted to get a few more step overs.

 

James next to Winks was good for 45 minutes granted, then got absolutely torn apart in transition 2nd half against Portsmouth. Who then plays the 10 with any dynamism? Nothing is a magic bullet with this blend of players.

You seem to forget people wanting to give Ward a chance when Schmeichel had a subpar patch. Some even suggested he was better than Kasper. 

tbf at that point Ward had been just that guy who turned up once a year to save some penalties against a championship side in a league cup shootout. There wasn't good reason to want him banished to the phantom zone at that point. No-one was calling for him at any point last season and I doubt anyone would call for Ayew given he'd be a proven failure.

Skip had 30 games on loan at norwich and highly rated . What the ff has happened to him.

This highly rated myth was started by the same person who said Ayew’s hold up play is his strength 

[OntarioFox]

Kings Lynn town equalise, which makes it a good day for Liz Truss, therefore a terrible day for the world

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Watching Ayew and Daka, makes me think I could do a job in the championship. I'm in my 40s and haven't played for a few years but I am sure I could do more than them. 

 

Professional footballers? they're an absolute joke.

Monga, Page (away I know) Fatawu and Mavadidi.  Anyone other than the attack killer Ayew 

[VLC86]

Fawanews doing us a solid here.

They can have him back if they like

I do wish LCFCTV would get rid of the triangle top right. Makes it feel like a 1980s VCR recording.

We are getting worse game by game.

This is the real issue.

[ealingfox]

I've been trying to put my finger on what our team reminds me of for a while and I think I've cracked it - we're AI slop. Our tactics, gameplan and decision making is straight from ChatGPT and Cifuentes is an AI-generated Spanish manager.

 

It looks ok at first glance or from a distance, but under any scrutiny you see the details are all wrong, misplaced, waffle or hallucinated.

Who's gonna have the breakdown that leads to the inevitable Norwich goal?

One of the defenders or Soumare if he comes on. 

[FoxesWalk]

What are we even trying to do though? I don’t understand what the plan is, there nobody in our squad who creates anything of note
