What do you think about his choice of goalkeeper and yesterday’s game management? | |

From what I can see he's been getting stick for persevering with Nordfelt and for his woeful game management yesterday. I think he deserves stick for both of those points. His team were show boating as if they were 5-0 up, when in reality it was 1-0 and just one mistake would allow Rotherham back in, which is what happened. Surely he should have stamped that out from the touchline. Then there is the issue with his complete lack of changes until it was far, far too late. Again, if someone wants to give him stick for those two points I think they're justified. | |

Saturday again showed we aren't far the best footballing side in the league and with more accuracy and presence will walk it with little or no further investment. When this starts clicking we will be fcking scintillating. All this picking on individual players just because they have one or two bad games has to stop. It's fcking mental. | |

More cause for optimism on 15:50 - Nov 4 by DwightYorkeSuperstar | How naïve. In two windows time we'll have less money than what we have now. Our squad will be weaker. The longer we stay in this league the harder it will be to bounce back up. Once the parachute money ends we will certainly be no force if we're going to spend within our means. We were promoted last time on the back of astounding work from Roberto Martinez and Brendan Rodgers, two of the best managers we'll ever have. Even then we just made it via the playoffs, even with the best player in the league in the form of his career. |
Naive and uber negative perspective. Why take such a half-empty stance when the club has delivered so very much ? Leveraging our heritage of playing the right way on the right budget is the way forward - a sound investment (emotional and financial). Fabulously entertaining stuff being dished up right now, with a keen eye on the financials. Our manager has the potential to usurp RM/BR's achievements. Optimism is far healthier than constant pessimism. Give it a go | | | |

More cause for optimism on 18:38 - Nov 4 by DwightYorkeSuperstar | No it wont improve. Out go Fer, Olsson, Dyer, Routledge, Bony, Monterro etc. In come the likes of Barry Mackay for £500,000 and a bunch of U23 players. |
Your post is almost totally correct. You just have to change the first sentence to "Yes it will improve." That is the actual plan You keep on harping on about how it's going to be so much worse when the parachute payments stop. How can it be worse, as we are not spending the payments on players now, so when they stop, we will still not be spending on players, hence it will be the same, not worse.... However, our Barry McKays and U23s with have 2-3 years of learning of GPs tactics, ideas and plans, and experience in playing first team football, hence we will be much better off than now. | |
