We could actually do a lot worse

Sean Dyche reportedly parting ways with Burnley. He’d toughen us up…

Also, he’s just not a very good manager. But all the above holds. I think we should ensure safety and move on in the close season. What would be the point of him playing out his final season. (Guess he knew this). For me it’s his obstinacy that sticks most in my craw. Tinkering. Shoehorning players into the wrong positions. Of changing things early enough. Ludicrous selections. Favourite players. Lack of man management skills. Lack of motivation. Sure, he’s ‘about our standard’, but that’s depressing. I’m sure there must be better, and coaching teams with more ability than the average goalkeepers we have. Perhaps if we ship 5 against Arsenal it will change for us. But that knife through butter mentality and frailty will only go I think with a firm, maybe boring, defensive hand at the tiller.

Exactly. Nauseatingly blind to the problems. Swallowed whole. I guess he's like his manager

He’s still here then. So that sort of result is fine. Jeez. Reading Che’s comments they are so blasé. Oh they finished their chances and we didn’t. I swear everyone at the club is shiteblind

Yawn

Still fuming. National embarrassments again. Surely we have to take decisive action and lose this woefully inept manager and coaching team? We need a spine, and resilience. The knife through butter nature of our frail squad will only get worse under these guys.

Has he gone yet? (As if)

Is fat sam available for the remaining minutes?

Is he actually trying to do anything involving tactics

He should resign tonight if he has anything about him

What a joke of a club

Has he ‘lost the dressing room?’ Or are we just shit? Wtaf

We still need 4 points…

Because Ralph

Bunch of on-the-beach contract hunting softies with a roulette wheel manager and lily livered mentality players demotivated by random player selections and formations

He’s just so scattergun in his management/selections and clearly can’t motivate. Sorry.

Something seriously wrong

WTAF is going on? Why does Ralph persist in this Tino shoehorned in bullshit at the expense of more sensible formations. Time for someone new at end of season?

Even in the last game where everyone was slating him he made some saves that the commentators were purring about so people just have favourites and that's it. Forster is marginally less shit than McCarthy, in my book.

Suddenly loads of pics on Instagram of Redmond in training. And even Djenepo

Those training pictures showing a smiling McCarthy. Aaargh (the horror)

Perhaps Pep is finally about to build a team around Redmond after all 😉

Also interesting that we don't see a future coaching role for Theo either. Shame in a way. Clearly a nice guy but the game has left him a long way behind. No room for nostalgia. (Although Bale would be marginally better)

Good to see these on the list and explains why Redmond has been a peripheral figure of late. I don't know why, but he always 'seems' like one of those who is an unsettling member of the squad (if old rumours can be believed). Very skilful on his day but gives the ball away too much and never quite got enough goals or went forwards enough for a good prem player. IMO Theo has been a disaster, pretty much. And I feel a bit sorry for Djenepo - seems a good bloke and a trier, but a bit too headless chicken for us. Good to see firm decisions being made though.
