For saving us from hell
And then they put us through it
It's time the bastards fell

Williams out on 21:25 - Dec 18 by sons_of_omri | I wouldn’t say it if we played a high tempo game but we don’t. We looked second best in strength and fitness to Cardiff at home and that was only in August |
And it is exactly at the point where we don't play high tempo the problems appear and yet if you are ahead in games you can still play at a high tempo but you don't need your full backs bombing on recklessly leaving us exposed on the wings also forcing midfield to drop too deep to cover the opposition's need to attack . | | | |
Williams out on 11:57 - Dec 19 with 446 views | RichardO | All managers must expect their team to come under pressure at some points in a game, playing away from home the home teams fans expect them to attack unnumbered, if a team goes behind again the opposition must be expected to attack us. We have to be set up to defend properly. Cooper set up his teams to be hardto beat but struggledto keep the goals for tally up, Martin's teams thought once we were on top then to keep pressure on we keep attacking with no hint of caution in the set up of the team. Potter's team seemly got the balance a bit better but failed to defend against set pieces resulting in loss points. William's has gone from the Cooper mode and now the Martin mode lets see if he can go to the Potter mode while being able to defend against the set pieces. We have played some good football even against the top teams but we have also played badly in the same games. Got ot get the balance right. | | | |

We dominated that game until 60/70 minutes when the substitutions started happening. We brought in the likes of Naughton, Abdullai and Vipotnik, while they brought on physical, aggressive players who pretty much just bullied us and we were lucky to get away with a draw. Whether that’s down to fitness or squad depth is up for debate, I’d say it’s a bit of both. I remember commenting that if we were going to play like that, we needed to put the game out of sight before our starting eleven started to tire. | | | |
Williams out on 16:22 - Dec 19 with 297 views | nantywatcher | LW completely lost me after his press conference. Ashley Williams slaughtered Gary O'Neil on MotD saying he had no time for a manager who constantly blamed the players and not accepting any personal blame for the club's results. LW comments made O'Neil look like a saint. His man management and leadership against Sunderland was nothing short of a disgrace. Within 5 minutes of the restart it was obvious Sunderland had come out with a vigorous and energetic approach to the game. Did he adjust at all. Not one iota, oh than he his obviously he thought his plan was going so well, that after 70 minutes he kept with plan that he kept the formation just replaced personally. (As a side note Eom may well have gone on the pitch with a book to read.) LW post match attitude was like a spoilt 8 year old moaning that he did not get the Xbox he thought he deserved. He needs a massive about turn in attitude, which would seem to be out of his reach. Sadly I can see no positive future with him at the helm. | | | |

For me it's just the complete lack of any individuality. If any subs are brought on they are there just to do the same job. There is no individuality allowed within his structure and absolutely painting by numbers. This approach may succeed occasionally but cannot bear fruit long term. You literally turn up to a game and know exactly how it will go | |

You’ve been reading my mind Williams is a Farm Foods version of his former mentor . He will take us nowhere and quite why he gets the support he does beats me . He has shown no signs at all of improving players . We’ve discussed this before and someone reckoned he’s improved Key. Oh no he hasn’t . Neither has he improved RonLd Players still subbed as of routine ,not how they are playing Ludicrous tactics deployed including suicide ball which we thought we’d rid ourselves of. We haven’t . I’m sure he’s a lovely chap . | |

Franco was subbed....played his first full 90 minutes. We have nothing of substance coming off our bench to change things. I sometimes wonder what our fans expect especially after 8 years of decrying Kaplan and Levian for their lack if investment in players | |

This ^ Until we get cooper, parker and ginnelly back it will be the same every game If we get them back then perhaps abdullai could play in his proper position in the centre of midfield. | | | |

Five games in two weeks coming up. This is where our squad could get really exposed. | | | |
