Paulo Sousa says: "I'm under no pressure"

[Chrysalis]

as I said before he needs to go, and possession football does not make up for the fact under sousa we cant defend and we never score first so always chasing the game.

[1964FOX]

Who gives a shit what fans from other teams think I ain't interested in their opinion, I will give him till Xmas and if he doesn't turn it around I will stick him on a plane in with the cargo with a one way ticket to Portugal

[bigneville]

what do you expect him to say??

hes still trying to back his team.. i wouldnt wana see him come out and slate the lads or say he cant handle it himself etc..

I'd expect him to apologise for the shocking performance, state it won't happen again, and we will be working on the training ground to rectify the errors.

Maybe admit he got his selection wrong, and take ownership for some of the blame for this performance.

An apology would have gone a long way after that long journey on a Friday night.

I don't think he's being cocky or anything in any way.

Anyone within the World, a football manager, a pilot, a teacher, anyone, has to have confidence in their ability, otherwise, whats the point in turning up for work?

Anything else he would have said may have had an adverse affect on the team.

Maybe the squad would have more respect for him if he admitted his mistakes? Maybe this over-confidence is a founding reason for the lack of confidence from the players in the managers system.

[Corky]

I think you are Paulo. I accept that we will lose games, but not in the fashion we saw on Friday.

[z-layrex]

Remember last season when we were a big team to be playing? Now look at us. Look what this c**t has done to us in the space of 2 months.

[CupidStunt]

If Mandaric had any say in this club, he'd be gone by now

I give him until after the S****horpe game, if we lose on Tues and against S****horpe, i predict he will go

if he dont, then i give up

[Tilley]

Depends how much he's on, might be too expensive to get rid of.

[Matt]

Relegation would cost more, Milan should advise the new owners of that.

[Tilley]

I agree, depends if they will look that far ahead. They need to cut their losses with Sousa and start again while there is still plenty of time to turn it around.

[Guest Basildon Fox]

Surely we could get him arrested for fraudulently impersonating a football manager.Could have him for breach of contract then!!

I've never said "this" before, but this!

[Edmund]

There's a thin line between being confident and delusions of grandeur.

I pay little attention to quotes to the press and subscribe to the Pearson stonewalling approach. Sousa has to say something and it's naive to think that he will slate the players to the press and make public admissions of mistakes and set out his future intentions for others to analyse and dissect. We just need to observe what's going on on the pitch and this frenzy about what he says and doesn't say is tiresome.

Unless you attend the training sessions and know what is said in the dressing room so much of this stuff is pure speculation and fuels the 24 hr media thirst and football forum repetition.

Sousa must be dissapointed as all LCFC fans are at our present predicament.

I agree and normally pay no attention at all to what a manager says after a game.

But after a performance like that, I would like an apology from the manager.

It could almost buy him a couple more games with some of the fans.
