Shukes Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Good keeper, could end up being a great keeper. But he’s not immune to criticism. Had a few shaky games recently and needs to get his head back on it. Though he’s not alone. Gomes, Richarlison and Sigurdsson are having bad patches as well. Can’t wait till we have a few players like Lookman snapping at their heels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nogs Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 I wonder how many 'Directors of Football' actually have seats on the board of directors? Makes sense really. Suggests that people at the top think turning things around from a footballing perspective is a bigger and longer term job than expected and need a specialist running the job from a high up position in the club. I wonder if this means he'll have more control over transfers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think when it says he'll have broader powers covering all aspects of the playing side at the club, that's an absolute given. And Kenwright having less to do with anything important can only be a good thing. He'll be nothing more than a figurehead soon enough, thankfully.

Palfy Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 I think Brands next signing could be a new manager and he needs to keep Moshiri out of the search , Moshiri has already shown he hasn’t got the knowledge required with Koeman Allardyce and possibly Silva going on the list as well. I trust Brands can find the right man if required and it will be someone who knows what there doing, to be fair it would be hard to do worse at this moment in time.

Shukes Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 I think we’ll find that Brands will lbw looking more long term. He will give Silva at least another twelve months to construct a team that suits his style. He won’t be looking at replacing the manager until Silva has been given a real chance to build a squad and a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all well and good saying we haven’t got the money or the market isn’t the best. If he wants Marco in a job he needs to get a goal scorer in. Get down to South America and find someone.

Bailey Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Its the players attitude that is the problem. They dont attack the ball and its incredibly naive to think man marking would change anything. Its not a difficult concept, they just have to attack the ball when it comes in their zone, exactly the same way they should if the ball comes near their man in a man-marking system. Its the same attitude from set pieces that led to Coleman rolling a timid pass to Lookman on his heels leading to the 3rd goal.
