Waiting Patiently for the conspiracy theorists to come on and say Steve Cooper has come to us to completely Fuch us up and send us back down in Embarrassment for his Florist mates !

 

Really hoping tho he can sort us out get us playing decent football like most of the 2nd half against the Spuds, get some more signings in before the end of the Window but tho it wouldn’t be Leicester without us going to the wire !!

It’s like they’re not coached. I don’t see the patterns of play. 

Dominated the ball today but was a league 2 side

Couple of long rangers and a soft penalty aside I’m just genuinely intrigued as to how he wants us to play. 
 

I’m here to be enlightened if I’m missing something obvious?

With that amount of possession and dominance, It was probably just fluid.

from two long rangers and a penalty, against a midtable league two team. there doesn't seem to be a clear strategy still on how we're going to create chances it's fair to say

Hope to see him start Ricardo in the league now. Justin is OK, but Riccy is just a classier player and one of our best. 

As someone else said, Cooper really needs to get the balance of the team right, something he has failed to do so far in the league. 

Despite the negativity, I actually think he will start tweaking things and get us playing better over the next 10 games.

That being said, we still have a pretty woeful squad for the Premier League, and will still likely be losing a large chunk of games. 

Not sure there will be much understanding or patience for that though. Give him another 10+ games, and let's see how he is doing then.

Could see the assymetric ricardo/mcateer combo trying to isolate Mavididi on the far side, with faes playing a bit more centrally perhaps because he moaned about it to the papers. Skipp/Winks as double pivots with Ndidi dropping back to make a 3 man central midfield during defense. General offensive pattern seemed to be to create space on the left hand side. It seemed Tranmere tried to stretch the pitch quite significantly in the first half to try and isolate Thomas - much like the way Fulham targetted Ndidi, Tranmere identified Thomas as a weak point. In offense Ndidi did his prime messi impression, which sort of worked eventually. That's how I saw it from very close to the pitch in the Kop.

I get what you mean. We’ve smashed League 2 cloggers tonight 4-0 so it can skew whiff opinions, the difference in quality between the Prem teams and the rest is huge now. I agree we haven’t got clear ways of attacking, last season, under Enzo we practiced structured patterns of play and game scenarios over and over again. Cooper is different in that his training situations give open situations and the players aren’t on the same wave length at times because of the change. Sometimes we get static because it’s asking a lot for players to be creative and in sync when they are tired.

With seven academy graduates in the squad as well (five on the pitch).

 

Appreciate it was a lowly opposition, but I feel like the negativity on this place is so over the top.

People certainly have an agenda against cooper that’s for sure.

Yep fair enough that’s your opinion but I’m not looking for any possible thing to smash the guy with. Especially after a 4-0 win …

I really fear he'll come a way from today thinking Skipp, Ndidi, Winks are going to be an attacking force. Worrying.

that comment suggests you didn't go, the first half was pretty shite and as others have said, not sure what they are actually trying to do. almost as if the instructions are "go out and enjoy yourselves". we won, and that's a positive, and i said nothing negative during the game, but that first half was a million miles away from the standard we'll need saturday against villa

Moved from my usual seat opposite the dug out to behind it for today and one takeaway -

 

Cooper seemed pissed off at Stephy multiple times for taking risks. I was pretty deflated at that as it was necessary to move at the defense. I think that does tell us a bit about Cooper's expectations.
