nik2402 1,367 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Poor again overall. Few flashes from Kent and Tillman aside. John Lundstram terrible again, getting away with a lot at the moment for some reason. Been awful all season barring a couple of games. Can’t help but think it’s just delaying the inevitable. Only chance we have of doing anything this season is using these next 4-5 weeks with a new manager. And it’s not going to happen. graeme_4 and Bad Robot 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a quality manager would give us a greater chance of over turning a 9 point deficit compared to Gio over turning a 7 point deficit. Under Gio the gap is only getting bigger, there's a strong chance with a new manager who can rejuvenate the squad that wouldn't be the case, especially with a few OFs remaining. In both situations the odds are literally non-existent, though, of course.

Kylegib 516 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 The display before the game started was superb so credit to everyone involved in that. We got the three points required tonight but certainly wasn't a great performance although I thought Kent improved on his recent displays. I still don't think Gio will turn this around so the result is only delaying the inevitable. Bad Robot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverAndEver 71,967 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Lundstram shite, Tillman good in flashes, Tavernier his usual, Morelos and Wright looked good when they came on. Hadron Collider and 16BlueSherbert90 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not got the resources to have anything like three fucking players for every position. I do question Gio’s tactics and overall ability to consistently get the best out of the players at his disposal. However, I agree that the number of injuries means that our first 11 pretty much picks itself at the moment no matter how individuals are performing. theblueoysterbar 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Struggling to see how this is a controversial take. Indeed we will. The quality manager you want is probably already employed. There is NO guarantee it works and the new boss is immediately seen as a failure. We already need to win all games (including the Scum games). Currently, if we somehow manage that, we are ahead of them. 9 points means we're still probably behind on goal difference. As I've said elsewhere...I'd love to see how we play with a fully fit squad and possibly one or two key signings in January. We sack Gio now, it costs us £m's which would otherwise be invested in the squad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayro 3,105 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Poor first half, decent 2nd half as they showed a bit of fight and spirit. Criticised GvB subs at the weekend, so fair dues they all came in and contributed. Whoever recommended Matondo should be sacked, get him so far to fuck. Get the 3 points at the weekend and reset over the WC break. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not got the resources to have anything like three fucking players for every position. In terms of numbers yes. In terms of first pick players no. Goalkeeping position needs addressed but McGregor at 40 is available and still our strongest. Back four has 3 of our 4 first picks available. Only Goldson missing. Middle three has Lundstram and Kamara available. The Kamara issue is being masked by other issues as he's one of our most talented players and has proved it at European level. Tillman not yet a first pick IMO despite his goal tonight. Front three has Kent fully fit, and a choice of Colak and Morelos through the middle. Right side everyone is fit except Hagi who was never a fans favourite anyway. The only injuries truly affecting the team are Goldson and Jack. Apart from potential subs to change a game that's it.

A grim indictment of the state of the Scottish game if there ever was one. They're fucking woeful. Yeah. I know we don’t exactly have our woes to seek but if that is the third best in Scotland the game up here is in a sorry state. Apart from booting it long in behind us I’m not sure what their game plan was? And we have finally found a team that is even better at breaking down their own attacks by passing it back to their own GK than us! And on the subject of Gordon, nice to see him show his true colours having a go at a fucking teenage ball boy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players obviously play better when they know that there's someone who could come in and take their place if they don't perform. As @TBagalag said, the first 11 picks itself now. The players are turning up for work knowing there's fuck all to challenge them. It's awful to watch. And I don't think Gio is experienced enough to know how to manage a situation like this. But who else that we could get would be? TBagalag 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Butler 23,046 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 My IPTV let me down tonight so didn't watch the game. However, we seem to have some people saying we played not too bad, singling out individual players for praise, but then we have others who said we played so bad that they wanted us to lose so that Gio got sacked.
