WystonRam Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 We clearly cannot play three at the back with the players we have. He had ample opportunities to change tonight but persisted trying to shoehorn substitutions into a 3-5-2, that looked like 3-6-1 for most of the game, if he cannot see it doesn’t work, at least for now , then he is on borrowed time.

Losing 6-2 to Arsenal is not as bad as losing to Fleetwood. We drew against Man City under Jewell.. couldn't imagine that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 The thing I dislike about his interviews is when he starts going on about other teams and how they are good at this and that and how we might not be as good - it’s the third division, get a grip because it does nothing to improve optimism if we were ever promoted under him.

Barney1991 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 What gets even worse is the profile of players we have gone for if we don’t go up it will be a total rebuild again. We can’t sell players and reinvest the money. We wanted peak age fit players between 22 and 29 and players being linked are 30 and over. We need pace but we start with Collins bird smith hourihane and nml who looks bolloxed after 30 minutes. A left wing back in fozzy who has had 3 act’s and is expected to get up and down and has 0 pace. We sell our only box to box midfielder and haven’t replaced him and to top it off we bring Thompson on who can get around and play him at lwb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 6 minutes ago, Leicester Ram said: We’ve gone through managers at an incredible rate this past decade and it’s never worked out. I feel like right now you have to hope this is just a new team that’s struggling to gel in a new system. Don’t agree with the booing and calls for a sacking this early on in the season. I think the reality is that Warne won’t be going any time soon due to the financial situation and his track record Can imagine he’ll be given until the end of this season. Maybe he’s the Nigel Clough type and we’ll need another manager to push what he’s building forwards? If that ends up being the case, I’ll be fine with it I personally believe you need a period of stability in safe hands before you can have a period of long term success However, I can at least understand why you’d want him out. That was an extremely bad performance, unusually poor even for this early in the season and the first few games have been eye opening as to where we’re at. Three promotions with Rotherham doesn’t count for any points and we look bereft of confidence. I think it’s tough to say he’s he bad transfer windows due to the embargo’s but January wasn’t great, McGoldrick leaving looks bad and we look like we’ve completely failed to improve the squads obvious lack of physicality. Washington, Waghorn and Collins sounds horribly one paced. Desperately need: 1. Sibley back 2. Athletic signing up top, whether that’s a big lad or a quick lad 3. Another creative midfielder Can’t see us getting the quality we need anywhere else other than through loan signings, which is kind of praying for a couple of miracles. Clough steadily improves sides. I think he has an amazing record of only finishing lower than the previous season 3 times in his management career. What is it about our performances this season that makes you think he's improving us? Adslegend, duncanjwitham and RadioactiveWaste 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really annoyed me tonight. The club the size of derby and our manager saying an Oxford team is better than ours. He was allowed to bring 7 of the players in.

Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Fwiw. The only reason we finished top half was because of DM's goals. Without him we would have finished nowhere. The players brought in have made us weaker and 3 statuesque central defenders offers nothing. No pace No passing No clue Players looked to me that they want him gone Hinzy9 and The Scarlet Pimpernel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
