I would certainly like a larger sample size than 2 and half games    As should everyone!!!

He has had 8 games not 2 and a half.

 

A manager that has a full pre season with a team is more vital than a manager coming in half way through a season.

 

A manager getting a full pre season with his new squad should show some improvement not a decline on every stat going.

It's absolutely dreadful what we are all seeing the team doesn't even look the slightest together. Clueless.

 

Honestly I hope he proves me wrong but so far we look so much worse this season I mean as a team not against competition.

 

 

Why the **** is Ndidi still on the pitch after half time. This is what I mean he is either stupid or deluded.

Behave, a significant points deduction is what will see us relegated, not singing kumbayah in some prayer circle.

there's a lot of dross in this division, hitting 40 points on the pitch will likely see us stay up regardless of points deduction but we're getting nowhere near that under the BTEC Allardyce

This is not a serious comment if you are including friendly games when a new manager is arriving.

I thought that was Ayew’s job, but he has drilled too often to the left because Kristiansen has been quite ineffective there.

Maybe but he's out on the left so that's then creating another problem.

 

I guess I meant, get a number 10 on!

Surely most expected us to go down before Maresca left

 

No?

So the second the season kicks off we are as good as we are ever going to be? Even before the window has closed?

Come on this is turning into morons with pitchforks.

Lets see how he goes after 5 more games.

Our worst passer being played as essentially an attacking midfielder when we've got two actual attacking midfielders on the bench (including one of our best players so far this season) is criminal

he can't coach for shit, that's already well known. he was absolutely shit at Forest, us being a basket case, the sort of luck you can only get by huffing leprechaun farts as part of a pre match routine and their home atmosphere kept them up more than anything he did. with him in charge we will only ever get worse, that's obvious to everyone

What is the point in friendly games if not to get the players up to speed with the approach you're trying to implement?

 

If the approach is to win the ball back well and then look clueless with what to do with it, preseason was a success.

Let me ask one question - did you want Enzo gone?

This is why so many fans can’t get on board with him. No point giving him 10-15 games his team selection from the get go has been hideous

I don’t have a massive problem with us playing defensively from the start against teams far superior to us providing we are doing so to stay in the game and have a go last 20 mins or so to try and nick it

Ndidi is trying but for the love of god he is not a creator

Just another reason to get rid of pragmatic Steve I say 

[Md9]

Honestly  don’t why wilf plays so far forward it’s crazy. And it’s 2 managers that have done it 

[Mike1983]

Signing Cooper feels like that one time on holiday when I vetoed the missus, chose a Chinese buffet over the Italian restaurant to save money, and we ended up with food poisoning.

[Harry96]

This makeshift rb they’ve got playing is shite we really need to target him more

Just F’in change it you clown

To be fair I got why Enzo did it. He needed runners getting forward and he had KDH as a creative outlet next door. In this system, it is a complete waste.

Because he’s a massive pain off the ball, but I don’t think he’s worth it given the compromise when he’s on the ball… 

[BigGibbo]

Has Cooper forgot that he's started with 8 defenders or that we're losing?

 

Inject some creativity for God's sake!

[whoareyaaa]

Bring Bilal on for Ndidi ASAP

[JimJams]

I don't think it needs 10 - 15 games for Cooper. I think you give him to Bournemouth. We'll have Palace, Everton and Bournemouth along with Arsenal.  Need a good set of results from that taking points from our relegation rivals because you've then got an international break and a run of what should be winnable games in Saints, Forest and Ipswich.

For me this is an audition to see if he merits sticking with through those games.

[turlo]

good effort from Okoli!

Yikes Everton 2-0 up
