He's here for the duration I'm afraid. JW is not going to sack him.

How many shit goals do we concede just before half time?

Better start and good to get our noses in front.Now stay solid.

RM was full of praise for his performance against Ipswich - on that basis he may start today.

Some sweeping generalisations there plus stuff that you've simply made up.

This is one of the biggest issues and it is staggering that RM can't seem to fix it.

Ipswich should have been 3-0 up at half time - more luck and them missing clear chances than pragmatism.

How about being really radical and playing full backs as full backs and midfielders as midfielders - probably not hipster enough though.

Quick transitions from defence to attack - in your dreams 🙂

I think it means being willing to receive the ball yards from your own goal surrounded by opponents. Doesn't matter if you fuck up and give a goal away as long as you are brave enough to try.

In addition he told the Echo that he was pleased with the way Aribo played!

Triffic! Bare bones innit.

Yeah because there aren't dozens of coaches around who would do a far better job then RM. Not many that could do worse though.

Clutching at straws - every team gets injuries, suspensions and all the other set-backs that happen. We can't blame those things on the mess we are in.

I think it's 3 rather than 4 because I don't believe we're still paying Selles.

If he walks away he misses out on a big pay-off. He won't do that and the big pay-off is the reason we are stuck with him.

Good points. RM knows he is failing and is trying to use the smoke screen that his methods are complicated and hard for the players to learn so it will take time. Quite frankly that is complete bullshit and is fooling very few fans. It's a bit of an insult to be honest as is this rubbish about scar tissue from last season. He's just making excuses and deflecting the flak he's getting because he knows he's been found out and doesn't know what to do next to extract us from the mess he's got us into. We look a shambles all over the pitch and there are no signs that he is capable of changing things to improve us. Unfortunately I think we're stuck with him.

It speaks volumes how little support there is for RM on here.

That really is quite worrying but nothing we haven't been expressing - hearing it said so candidly by an opposition player just confirms our suspicions. RM has made us very predictable and so easy to play against.

Let me assure you, you have 20-20 vision, nothing wrong with your eyesight.

That's a disgrace.

Did it prevent him knowing how to pass the ball or clear it without it going under his foot? Interesting how much of their basic skills professional footballers lose because they have not trained with their team.

07703836869 Exactly this. You cannot play out from the back if your midfield players are hiding - they need to show for the ball to give the centre backs options. We start the process by Baz bowling the ball out to a CB but it ends there because nobody makes any attempt to move into space from midfield so it very quickly breaks down.

From what was said when he was appointed the idea is to build a side and system that will get us promoted with a better chance of staying in the Premier League when we get there. Personally I think it's a plan with zero chance of succeeding from what I've seen. The idea might have some merit but RM is not the manager to do it.
