I just think that apart from 4 or 5 players, we aren't good enough, both in ability and mentality. Punched above our weight first half of the season and reverted to type the second half.

hammer93 15,057 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I've seen us a lot worse than today, we aren't taking our chances just now, we could easily have been 2 or 3 up in the first half and we have had another 2 goals chopped off....not to worry we are only a 4-0 victory away from an "I love stevie g" thread Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He generally has no interest in taking on a full back even when it's on. Add to that his crossing has been abysmal other than one for Aribo recently. He's a luxury flair player offering us so little.

Out of 810 minutes of football how many of those have we even remotely looked like the side we were in December? That result today does nothing but paper over the cracks that are glaringly obvious in that side, we could go on to beat Braga on Thursday and everything will be hunky dorey again until we struggle against St Johnstone then go on to exit the Scottish Cup at Tynecastle. I would honestly accept the point that we do have players badly off form at the moment, had we not collapsed at this exact same stage last season, it's too coincidental. I agree we're awful at the minute but I'd need some convincing to come round to it being down to a lost dressing room. What players do you think he's lost?

Smile 26,600 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Players who previously played well are coasting knowing they will be picked regardless, doesnt matter what the manager does if too many players don't give a fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not playing for Gerrard the midfielder, he's hung up his boots. They're playing for Gerrard the manager, a guy who chucks players under the bus, players he signed by and large.

My source is solid. Edit- Not that he had lost the dressing room, but a lot of players don't know how to take Gerrard and think he's been way too harsh on certain players. He's way too harsh on Katic and way to soft on his chosen few from what my eyes witness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve not seen one name for a successor from any of the Gerrard critics. Getting rid of him now would hand jungles next season as well as this. Yes, because under Gerrard we look like stopping them winning the league. He’s out his depth, i’ve said before he wont get sacked but anyone thinking him And hid management team have the nous to stop 9/10 in a row is deluded.

Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I think we try to look too much into things and try to find things that are not necessarily there. The reality is we'll never know. My view is more simplistic. Our key players were or have been injured/suspended since our return. This has coincided with a number of our players being off form. We've faced a few tricky games in this period. We have faced some shocking refereeing decisions. We've made stupid individual mistakes. We've missed glaring chances, many of them. The tarriers have compounded our misery by winning even when struggling. Collectively nothing has gone our way, some of it through our own doing. Now we are in a situation where we have to win every game, and clearly our players are finding that tough. The expectation is so huge. When you're in adversity it's not easy. We can shout as much as we want but when players are feeling the pressure and heat, it's difficult, in any environment, work, family, relationships.

I cant understand the treatment of Docherty at all, guy was by all account player of the year on his loan last year and hes playing well and just scored a screamer for Hibs, surely hes a better option than some of the underperformers in our midfield. Murphy I dont know, wasnt overly keen on him before his injury but he also couldve done a job for us and I would deffo have taken him over the likes of Ojo or Aribo who for me offers nothing.

At this time last year almost every fan was screaming for quality to be added to squad. Our starting line up minus Hagi today was almost identical. His signings have been nothing short of disgraceful. We needed and upgrade on guys like Murphy Candeias etc and he’s bought players who are worse.

LegendofCoop 17,273 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Something isn't gelling right, but I don't think he's lost the dressing room. We had 2 decent looking goals chopped off. A 3-0 win would have made it seem all the better, We're pish, and this is a new cliche for us, but given the conditions....the 3 points were all that mattered.
