I have provided plenty of evidence over this forum of why Cocu needs more time before we can fairly judge him and why it is not as bad as it appears. Seeing the type of players he brings in will tell us a lot.

Football, sport, it is all built on blind faith. You choose to believe another manager could do better with this set of players, there is nothing factual about that, just opinion. Derby are poor at the moment, is it a fact we won't beat Wigan? No. I believe we will, if I didn't believe I would have given up on football a long time ago.

This is just all part of a squad overhaul we have long been overdue. Time. All takes time.

Sadly too many on here are short of patience , they'd sooner pull the trigger and get Colin in .

Having just spent a week of "dad and lad" time in Florida I have just had an epiphany as to how important and fleeting time together is.

Hope you both maintain that @Ruda Harliss and @Ellafella  - that's the most important bit. Whether it's achieved by following dcfc or not (mine not into football but I did drag him to Southampton and Brighton last season)?

Because in modern football it's never the players' fault. £500k to work part time, a whole club backing them and 25,000 fans willing them to win just isn't enough motivation apparently. They need to be told by one man "get stuck in lads", or they just give up.

Personally I don’t really see a lack of effort. If you go through them one by one I don’t think any of them are taking the piss (I know there is at least one certain player who plenty would disagree with me on however)

I see a distinct lack of quality. I see a squad built in the image of half a dozen different managers, each of whom have had a very short term agenda. This is what results in what we’re now seeing. We no longer have a Wilson to score from a ridiculous distance in a tight game, or a Tomori or Keogh to get us out the muck at the back. 
 

The squad doesn’t need a total overhaul, I don’t think many teams who get promoted have a squad I’d be jealous of. But the vast majority of the quality we had in the squad is now gone. That isn’t on Cocu. That is on the previous staff at the football club who have cleared off as soon as they had to clean up their own mess (and to a degree Morris for allowing this)

I think we already know they type of players he wants to bring in 

clearly he wants “technical“ players 

dowell, pattison and bielik are all clearly in that category 

my big fear is that until his hand was forced with injuries he had overlooked shinnie citing was it “he’s not technically at the same level of some” or some tv I bf like that 

however he clearly overlooked and wasn’t aware in the championship u have to have players that can do the dog work too

something mr championship specialist should be advising him 

when he lined Huddlestone and dowell up for the first 6 games or so was there anyone who supports Derby who thought that might actually work 

That was disappointing from the coaching staff I ha he to say and pretty naive
