Disgraceful. Seems to be blaming young players for not being up to it, and after the way he has treated them. |

Thread | Robinson as left wing back?
at 16:20 7 Jan 2018
Robinson has had a great season since moving to centre-back and along with Freeman and Luongo is surely a candidate for player of the year. But now we have other centre backs fit again, and if we persist with 3-5-2, could he switch to left wing back with Pavel right wing back? Basic Bidwell is a solid full back with the occasional bit of brilliance (eg interception or goal-line clearance) but is not quick enough for a wing back. Robinson is faster, can cross the ball and knows where the goal is. Could that work, assuming we have Ned, Baptiste and Hall/Lynch available? |

Thread | JFH to press: 'Not thinking of Play-Offs'

Could be his most significant contribution to-date if it makes our clueless (about football) owners accept what nearly all the fans already realise - that we are not getting promoted this season. Didn't actually use the word 'consolidation' or 'rebuilding' but seemeed to be implying it. If the owners could now accept this then we could actually start enjoying the season again, move the over-paid failures on, start to build again and give the young players a chance, which is what Les and Ramsey were originally encouraged to do..

Thread | Redknapp's big failure...
at 18:53 10 Jan 2015
He is unable to build winning formations because he doesn't play players in their best position. It is quite a good squad, though unbalanced because of his pre-season intention of playing 3-5-2 (and got rid of full-backs), and then after he quickly ditched it trying to mould number 10s into 4-4-2, or if he is very radical 4-4-1-1. He says we only have two strikers, but in fact we have four - Zamora, Austin, Vargas and now Zarate. How is it that Vargas scores regularly for Chile but can't score for us? Because he is out of position. Fer is out of position. Isla is out of position. Kranjcar, one of our most composed players on the ball, doesn't fit into 4-4-2. Mutch score goals behind Cardiff's one striker last year. He doesn't fit into HR's formation |
