I don't care who we get as long as they fit these criteria:
1.) They are young(-ish) and forward thinking
2.) They aren't married to a system
3.) Have a proven record of making players better
4.) Isn't overly stubborn and so learns from their mistakes
4 is hard to pre-empt or measure, except...
It’s interesting to me that the team played better when Conte wasn’t there. I think that says a lot. My guess is the players are sick of being moaned at, his words and actions point to not trusting them and then they get berated for not taking responsibility. In every respect this guy is his own...
The main problem is central midfield. Hojbjerg and Bentancur don’t want the ball, don’t want to pass and move, don’t want to pass forwards, and only one wants to break the lines. They are both capable so is it that they are scared or that they are being told to play this way?
I wonder how much disruption Kane’s absence throughout pre-season had and if we’re seeing a bit of a knock-on effect. I thought we looked dangerous and organised going forward during the first two games and since he has been back we’ve looked all over the place. Could just be a coincidence.
I remember many years ago, towards the end of Sugar’s reign, I went to a match mid-season and we were so poor a season ticket holder sat a few rows in front stood up, screamed “I’m not fucking doing this anymore!!” ripped up his book and threw it towards the pitch.
I hadn’t thought about him...
I’ll explain.
Did do - gave the fans a representative on the board.
Didn’t do - consult the fans before telling everyone they would now be consulting the fans.
THST are a bit like my wife, whatever I actually do goes unnoticed, it’s always about what I don’t do. Yeah I got the food shop but I forgot to pick the kids up from school WE HAVE FOOD NOW, LET IT GO.
I think the important part of what you’ve said is “If you’re blaming Aurier”, which I wasn’t, he was one of a few, as you have said yourself. You’ve created an entire argument out of something I haven’t said. Well done. And still no agenda.
Hmm pretty sure Doucoure scored for them coming from round Toby’s blind side, the side Aurier couldn’t get back to cover. Danny was high yes, but Jan also had the runner in front of him and didn’t get across early enough. At least 3 people were at fault for the goal, I’m talking about the entire...
Just got in, I could talk endlessly about the general awfulness of our team but I feel I want to give a special mention to Serge Aurier. For me this guy is without doubt the worst defender we’ve ever had. I remember Dean Austin, Mauricio Tarricco, Gary Doherty, these guys actually gave some...
Wow you're a bit of a serious one aren't you? Neg rep?! Ok well you go ahead and put your own parameters around a point I MADE, read the whole post next time.
Just a thought but maybe he's not maturing because his parent is a little bit too involved in his life? I don't wanna get deep but I don't recall many of our other players' Dads continually giving interviews, it's a bit odd.
