Sir Shep Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March It’s kind of strange considering how well he’s done up to about a month ago but right now he just seems bang average without a clue other than a shithouse. Harsh yes but very frustrating for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March The Enzo style of patient build up and tiring teams worked well earlier in the season against teams playing 11 men behind the ball. Now teams have worked out that if they actually attack us, they can get something. When our games become more like basketball and end to end and we don't have the control Enzo likes, we seem to struggle. We were unlucky against Leeds and Boro to be fair but I thought we were poor against QPR and Sunderland and I didn't think we were great today either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityfanlee23 Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March He's obviously a really principled man and that has to be respected, but right now we face a very perilous situation off the pitch and a worrying one on the pitch. This is one of the most important seasons in our recent history and if we bottle this we could be in massive trouble, potentially facing points penalties or financial ruin. With that in mind it's frustrating just how stubborn Enzo is being, it's clear to anyone watching that we don't have the players to play the way he wants at the level required, it has worked in some games this season where we've played really well, but there have been far too many poor performances this season. We really cannot afford to mess this up, and yet here we have a manager utterly refusing to adapt his system to fit the squad he has to extract the best performance. Not only that, teams have adapted to us because they have worked out that under pressure we crumble, and they are exploiting that. It will be unforgivable if Enzo puts his philosophy before the future of the club and we fail. I have a feeling he will be off in summer, his system needs investment that we simply cannot give him. If he is not going to be pragmatic then we need someone else who will. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryn Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March I thought we played fairly well today. The problem we’re having for me is we’re not creating high quality chances, and that’s the whole point of playing this style of football. It’s ok to have fewer chances overall if you make high quality ones and take them. I didn’t think the movement off the ball was good enough in the final third, and the times we got that right we scored. I think a fit Ndidi and Pereira bring a lot of that back. I felt we defended well, bar the mistake from Faes. Hull’s attack is no joke. I thought Justin and Choudhury had good games defensively. I’m surprised Mavididi completes the 90 every week; I guess Enzo just doesn’t think he has anyone to put in for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean in terms of would it be a big loss if Enzo goes if he messes this up? If that’s what you mean then no it won’t be a big loss, the big loss is the repercussions we would face if we slipped up now, I’m really concerned.

john ridley Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March Yeah I meant Enzo going ,I appreciate how he turned the vibe round the club to a more positive out look at first but I'm not sure he's all that .Before anyone says I'm only saying that cause of the dip in form ,I've thought it from the beginning and here we are with 9 games to go and the style of play hasn't got any better over the season.The money situation is another thing where certain people should be held accountable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcell Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March This will be an unpopular opinion but I don’t think we’d miss him if he went in the summer. In this league or not. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree with you 100%. A stint under Pep, borrowing success, buys you sweat F A in the Championship. And I've heard it said before that a few out there could turn this club around given the squad inherited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just say you don’t like possession football, it’s not a crime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant no ingratitude or derision, simply that Enzo is in a privileged position at a great club and I'm not sure I dislike keep ball it just seems copied and a little weak right now. This has been a good season and Enzo is a good manager, but is good good enough? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 9 March Share Posted 9 March 1 minute ago, Tuna said: Agreed, regardless of the division we are in I think he will leave too, regardless of what happens. I don’t know why, but I get the impression the relationship isn’t the best between him and the top brass. He strikes me as the type of guy who will speak his mind whether it’s wanted or not. So I wouldn’t be surprised to see one of those bizarre situations where we go up and they relieve him of his duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes some teams may have adapted a bit to our game, why wouldn't they, but even some of the losses we have totally dominated teams and have been very unlucky or been robbed by atrocious refereeing. Class is permanent we will win the league and we will have deserved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If/when we go up, I think he'll want at least a season with us to test himself. Can't see him getting any other PL offers so why not stay with us? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it will be completely on him in my opinion. I’ve always been worried about his stubbornness and complete lack of flexibility….. it could be our undoing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
