All managers who want to play on the front foot and give it a go.
Frightened. Passive. Defend.
It's going to be a long hard season.
One thing is for sure, there's no quick fix. A couple of transfer windows needed and that's assuming we start to recruit better - big assumption I know.
Frank should get the season barring a horrendous run but I'm not overly confident he's the answer long term. These are worrying signs despite the shortcomings regarding the squad.
He needs to start demonstrating that he can learn from his mistakes and evolve as a manager, and at a bigger Club to.
Its like he's still got the Brentford mindset.
Anyway. I'm still behind him despite the concerns but he's got to start changing things up.
The pressure will only get worse under this approach.

Another thing that we’ll have to endure on a loop ad infinitum. Cheers for that

We're adding layers.Frightened. Passive. Defend.
Issue is the squad 100% IMO.
To play defensive like today we need a threat upfront also. We had Odobert, Richie and a half fit Kudus.
Rumours of Toney in the winter he's not a world beater but he'd hold the ball up and bring others into play.
At the same time we have no one in the midfield who can beat a press and pick a pass. Bergval maybe at some point, but Sarr has proven he can't, Bents can't Palinha can't.
So basically he's dammed if he does dammed if he don't. Doesn't have the tools to do anything against anyone decent cause the squad is midtable dross
He’d already lost part of it
Yes, I saw that and hence my disbelief. Yet he's championing long throws. Ffs.
I can't see how Toney would have made any difference. Richi was on his own without a team mate within 20 yards with Vicario hoofing the ball up.
Bye bye.
Now there's only one man left who's mad enough to coach our team.
Drink problem
Always legless!!
The old "the boss coached a win but the players didn't execute".
Now pay
The Extra Mile(sey)
his dues.
I don't say this with TF specifically in mind; but I want to hear managers say "I know what went wrong... I'll fix X, Y & Z this week..... Expect better in the next game"
The old "the boss coached a win but the players didn't execute".
Now pay
I don't think anyone can say that the boss coached a win. He coached a terrible defeat and made a big mistake with his selection.
Away at PSG we played 3 solid midfielders in Palinha, Benta and Sarr with Kudus as a 10 and Richi at 9. Playing Odobert as LWF with Kudus RWF left far too much space for our 2 CMs to cover and it disintegrated immediately, we completely failed to disrupt Woolwich's play.
Yes thomas. And you're paid 8 million to improve us.
Kudus is awful.
