But the performances with what I’ve seen are different. We’re actually trying to be more of an attacking force, there is a pattern of play which there wasn’t for long parts of last season and some positive signs in an extremely negative situation to the point of I’m not prepared to accept that after 2 league games we are doomed. We will see. Yesterday’s first half was abysmal. Tapping it to Roos and a passing move with 3 defenders ending back with our keeper. I see nothing in terms of progression, same old story. Let’s give him 10 games and then if there is no change get rid. More than fair. Deej and Derby4Me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did also sell Vydra for over £10million. The man Rowett got playing brilliantly. No Mel backs his managers and he’s even backing Rooney bringing in Morrison , Stearman,,Allsop and giving a new contract to Curtis Davies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that leaves us with one win in 18 league games and no improvement in style or results. I haven't seen our Young uns improve,I've seen them regress once they have left the academy and start being coached in the first team. Embosele looked great initially but in the last match,he looked to be losing confidence because of our misguided tactic of giving him the ball to run up the wing in every single attack we made....so predictable and it ultimately meant that he was constantly losing the ball as the opposition targeted him...far too much pressure on a young head. Then look at Sibley and Knight,they were shadows of themselves under Rooney yet looked like superstars in the making before lockdown. If you haven't got the coaching and tactics right in the first place the team is onto a loser before a ball is kicked. One win in 18…. Give me a break…are you also saying that premier leagues Norwich City have only lost 3 in the last 18….so they can’t possibly be thinking they might go down can they….???

The players talk highly of him Morrison seems to want to play for him You think CKR has played his best? we have very different standards. CKR may have been one of the better from a bad bunch, but considering our scoring record last season, I certainly wouldn’t be lauding him as a performer.

DCFC Kicks Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 37 minutes ago, Curtains said: If you think Lampard was a success fine . I think he ultimately failed and cost us or might I say DCFC a lot of money Lampard didn't cost us. What's happened to us was always going to happen, Lampard's season just happened to be the last one before it. I think we spent around £13m on players that season but also sold £13m worth anyway.

We will never repeat Leeds away under Rooney. Prior to Lampard, I remember Rowett getting great performances out of players. McClaren before him, even Clement got players to perform!

This is nonsense. Mel loved the publicity. He was a proud owner at one stage. Problem was he believed his own hype too much. He definitely wanted to own the club and said as much many times.

Anyhow I feel you are about to launch into me so I’m out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
