Bristol loyal 6,248 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Agreed, yet again in January we look like we’ve lost all our energy. It’s supposed to be a break, considering we’ve played 30 plus games in the first half of the season if the players are getting run into the ground in the Dubai heat then questions must be asked of the manager and his coaching team. To go from the position we were in before the break to where we are now with our form is unacceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,781 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I don’t know what running players into the ground in the sweltering heat in the middle of the season is supposed to achieve because two years on the trot it’s achieved fuck all.

the brown brogue 1,909 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Running on empty, players picking up injuries and our form has completely dropped off a cliff. It's infuriating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer93 15,057 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Its fuck all to do with a training camp ffs, we have had momentum the last 2yrs, players want to keep playing when confidence is high....going 3 weeks without competitive football is killing the feel good factor aswell as momentum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,835 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Let's face it, the winter break comes at a bad time. After pumping the scum twice in two years right before the break, we have the momentum and then have to shut it down giving them a chance to regroup. Until I see proof that Dubai is detrimental then it is just a bad coincidence. To just say that is the reason without proof is just heresy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA1972 9,555 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 It’s the same thing that costs all of Bielsa’s teams any success They start the season amazing because they are super fit but by the time it comes down to the business end they are all fucked Given our hectic schedule and small core of our squad that break should be used as a ticking over/rest period to gear up and push for the rest of the season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are coming back sluggish and off the pace because the legs have been run off them. We'll look good again in a few weeks I don't doubt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
