What else could he have done? Adjusted and adapted his style to suit the players, not the other way around. When you have shit players, you have to be able to adapt your philosophy to get the best out of what you have got. Make the team better than the individuals. Both of these managers seem unable to adjust their style, and end up forcing players that are not good enough to play a certain way. Square pegs in round holes rarely works great.

I agree, but sadly, they are probably the only ones who want to be here next season...

They should. Not like it's a new thing for them...

Could it be that Arma won using the xg model, and Che won when measuring with the banjo to barndoor scale?

We can use the same technology that is being used to hologram Bednarek into the defence on match days!

We had a shield? 😉

So did Bree

No VAR today? Surley they could have ruled that Tall Paul interfered?

That can't be right... Hasn't he just been here for, like, two weeks?

If that happens, please be careful, maybe use a strecher to carry him off, not high up on shoulders where he could fall down and injure himself.

This is what I see as well… I don’t think many (any?) of our players believe we can win when stepping out on the field. If that doesn’t change, then we are going down with one digit in our points tally.

...would be my assessment

Pardon, are you here for the 5 minute argument, or is this the full half hour?

no doubt about the outcome here

Think I just saw a pig flying by the window, so why not?

Need to start playing Janny B up front!

He runs...

These are not the eleven you are looking for

Nubmer 8 can also play in a midfield three is how I see it. Thats where he mostly played for Glimt, either side of the six.

Heard the travelling support singing loud and clear on the telly: "we scored a goal" "we scored a goal" "we scored a goal" "we scored a goal"

Alcaraz signed on the 11th, and made his debut on the 14th. Thats what happens when we sign a player who is good enough to improve the starting 11. I guess we will just have to wait and see, but my money goes on more waiting than seeing 😉

I respectfully disagree. He may need to get up to speed, but for what? To be available as 3rd choice? If he was an improvement, he would go straight in the first team.

If Wellington was good enough/an upgrade he would not have gone to the U21... He is not here to play, he is (like, oh, so many others) not good enough to strengthen our starting 11. Probably end up on loan somewhere.

Now THAT I believe!

I agree, they can score goals in the championship, but who is going to provide and set them up? It's very easy to focus on our crap, misfiring strike-force (because they are), but we are also lacking in the creative department. Last season we had Stuart Armstrong and KWP as the to main players who could transistion us out of ball retention, and into attacking play. Next season we need new players like them, as the two most likely answers, Dibling and KWP, won't be here.
