KeyserSoze 15,281 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 This squad has been assembled over time by a concoction of managers who have generally struggled. we have spoken about Clement and how he has turned our season round with this group. I personally can’t wait to see what happens in the summer. We will get a better idea of him and our ambition Negri's lovechild 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we won only 3 out our last 9 league matches. That one aye? Couldn’t have picked a better example. We’d won 13 in a row before April. Then finished by winning only 3 in 9. The fact you believe both situations are comparable and back you up, shows how deranged you are. Its also so simplistic to look at the results. We failed to win twice at the dump, one with a 93rd minute goal, a venue we often struggle at. We played 23 games from March to May The most we can play here is 15. Playing games in midweek and had a fixture pile up. A cup final in March, travelling to Italy etc. Only an idiot would think us dropping points today is about players being knackered and our struggles in 2008 is proof of that.

Broxi 12,205 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 5 minutes ago, STEPPS BOY said: The last time we won there with fans in was 2019. We had midfielders like Jack,Kamara and Davis. We had Kent, Morelos and Aribo in their pomp We basically had the defence we had the now but four years younger. We were better coached and far more organised. This team we have now is an absolute shitshow and anyone confident of a result there is absolutely deluded. Favourites? No Can we? Obviously It's a game of football where the winner will probably win the league. Anything can happen in it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally can’t wait to see what happens in the summer. We will get a better idea of him and our ambition Only issue with that is his ambition being matched by the board. The amount of change required needs backing we haven't seen since the Murray era. I'd understand if that isn't possible and if it likely isn't then I'd prefer Clement and Koppen got 9/10 solid first team players along with Butland, Sterling and Cantwell then the squad being filled by B team players, regardless of them being good enough right now for the 1st team. We need evidence that the manager and managerial team actually want to make the tough decisions that's been needed to be made for years.

No you just made a cunt of yourself. By pulling up the last season where we had players playing the same amount of football. Where we also fell off a cliff with our results. There are massive differences between that season and this. Also some similarities. Tbh it’s a pointless argument. The world has moved on. The top managers are all aware of the effects. The top sports science departments are. You can sit here and tell yourself it’s had no effect. You can also just use your eyes. Go rewatch the Hearts match where we pumped them 5-0. Look at the intensity and physicality of Lundstrum compared to now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyCR1 1,566 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 27 old firm league games in front of fans (that actually mattered and weren’t after the title had been decided already) and 3 wins since we came back to the premiership.

Can't believe both are not injured due to being overused!! I mean you’re not making a point. If you want to just mock the fact that there’s a reason top mangers rotate players. Just look at the stats from today. Look at the difference in metres covered, sprints, successful presses, interceptions. Then compare them to matches we were winning a few months ago. County played with an intensity and press that was better than ours today. Our levels have dropped. Not just this game either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
