Hopefully seeing what we were watching will open his eyes to what needs done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly don't agree mate, if you're a confident manager of a big club you want in straight away, wasn't expecting him to make massive changes but at least lead the team out. Conte at Spurs a few weeks ago, took over on the Tuesday & led them out for a crucial European game on the Thursday. Aye the team was probably already picked but him being there gave the place a lift before the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondraker 417 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 That result was coming with those players regardless of who was in charge. Gio has his work cut out in sorting out a defence where they don't/can't? defend and give up apparently. Midfield...3 invisible men who can't shoot 1 winger who prefers to be the underdog 1 rollypolly who is on a perma-sulk Good luck Gio RowX 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
southcoastbear 1,639 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Painful as it was to watch the players cant use the " we were doing all right with what Gerrard, Beale and co taught us" and hopefully be less resistant to the changes he wants to introduce after yesterday's debacle. blaudrup 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary they are in charge of the kids. After that think they'll be out on their arse. Bad Robot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that think they'll be out on their arse. maybe it was just they couldn’t handle the pressure on the day as using nearly all the subs was school boy stuff where everyone gets a run out even the shit players. The mentality of medals for taking part and not for winning. We can also blame the directorate for giving us another murty situation but it was one fkn game and they couldn’t have fkd it up anymore. In hindsight I would have pulled Neil McCann from RTV and yes the players have a lot of the blame but pulling off Aribo and Arfield was so fkn wrong and Kent as they took our fastest player off yet stuck by Morelos. onlythestrongsurvive 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He/we didn't want him to take charge until today, nothing to do with the work permit. After watching a group of coaches yesterday pick names out a hat for substitutions while he sat in the stand that looks an absolutey crazy decision. Say again I didn't expect him to come in and we beat Hibs 5-0 with revolutionary formation and performance but I would've expected if he was appointed in time that he would lead the team out, even if it picks itself. Having him on the sidelines yesterday might've made no difference, never know now but it couldn't be worse than what we had, that was Murty levels of embarrassing.

Arfield and Aribo only players with a bit of directness that might have got in behind or played another in behind. The two best players in the team get taken off. What were they watching out there? They should be nowhere near our youths if yesterday is anything to go by. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't talk shite, nobody said he couldn't speak to the players, the point was he couldn't take the squad or be in the dugout, the work permit thing came up yesterday on the telly that it starts today.

I know it wouldn't make a difference I'm merely stating the reason he wasn't in charge or in the dugout was due to his work permit not starting until today.
