VdV, Romero, and Solanke returning will win us some more points, but it will not remedy the issues inherent in his system and approach.
Daniel is being cheap, but once again he is discounting the value of time. Any more time spent "educating" these players in his tactics is a complete waste. It's shameful that this even needs to be pointed out.
Udogie has been coached terribly, and VdV won't be able to be trusted with serious minutes for several games when he does make a return.
People thinking a couple returning defenders is going to solve our inability to create chances and press high are insane.
Well it looks like Fab is on the case and we know the useless bald turd listens to him.
Did anyone find out what Munn does yet?

It'll be interesting to see how resilient ticket sales are if/when Son leaves. In a lot of ways it feels like his star power is keeping the stands full more than our actual football right now.
Tbh it's not difficult to dig him out. Losing 3 straight NLD, three in a row to chelsea. That's unacceptable to begin with. 5 losses in a row towards end of last season was a red flag. He got found out by Marco Silva last March away to fulham. Exposed our full backs. Hes making some mediocre managers look good. Had to beat tamworth after extra time. His tactics dont work unless he has full strength team which shows he dont have flexibility.
Excellent post. I know this is not strict proof of causation, but it seems almost impossible not to acknowledge the link there.
Buys Big Dan a train ticket so he has to watch the horror of every game unfolding.
They aren't even guaranteed to work if we do have a full strength side. Liverpool, Chelsea and Woolwich can attest to that.
Been reading paratici. Not sure I want another italian to manage us. Wont be long weather is shit, food shit, homesick etc. High maintenance italian managers imo.
Think hes a Yes man to levy.
Eh? Paratici isn't a manager.
Inzaghi at inter.
Agree- in hindsight it seems clear Ange rushed players back to try and salvage- something I guess- a top 4 challenge? I wish he had been much more cautious and not gambled with the players' health so much. I have a feeling he put a scare into them with his mishandling and they've been loathe to appear without full physical confidence since.
I'd gladly have accepted some poor results using second string and academy players to help preserve the fitness of our starting XI. Seems like he "went for it" and every throw of the dice since then has served to compound his initial error even further.
At some point you cut your losses, or they get cut for you. Getting tossed out of two cups will at least let him focus on fewer games, although sadly only by default.
No offense to anyone, but we need a manager with a bit more grit than fairweather southern European cosmopolitans.
Anybody desperate to jet home once a month is a no go to me.
Stunt double.
Totally agree. Can imagine with inzaghi bad weather hits in October then the antics begin about weather, food and all that bollox. Should learn from conte scenario. Couldnt wait to get sacked so he could go home and be on his jet ski.
