It's not like the second half was good football

Exciting? Yeah. Great to see proper effort? Yeah

Good? No

It was an intensive press and route 1

Things have been so fucking poor for so fucking long, we have been so starved - a bit of effort is being seen as proper football

Fuck me, Frank has ruined you all


First half was pure Frank, don't forget that

Second half, which I'm sure Frank will tell you is more layers and more good football like the last 10 games, was the best Frank can do - fucking run about a bit and go direct...

He needs to go, the damage he is doing to this club...
 
He did good to change it up in the second half and bring us back into it.

But he's also the reason why we were so bad in the first half and had to change it to begin with.

Anyway, I think he's here til the end of the season so hopefully he has us playing more like in the second half going forward.

Fuck me,anybody Frank in is not right. Why does a draw at home against anyone change anything? Why wait till the summer? He will be gone anyway. We are a fucking Micky Mouse Club.

No change from my position at all but even I would say it would be perverse to sack the bloke sfter drawing against City when we didn't after losing to West Ham or Bournemouth.

So much is incongruent at this club right now, and that would top it off..

Hope he's not taking a draw as a win.

But looking at this reactions with lads smiling, he probably thinks so.

Can we just sack him still? Can't be playing a game of two halves every fucking single match and he sees it as a positive.

The way the stadium sounds also seems like a win. Sorry, i just feel it's weak mentality all round. We could have really scored a 3rd if we really wanted it. But we took our foot off the pedal.

Correct,we settled for the 2-2 when we should’ve went on and won.

Look he’s seeing the season out now. That has been clear for a while. I don’t believe we are going to be relegated and summertime is a better time to get a proper replacement in.
 
My first post! Hi everyone.

That was fun! Depths at half time followed by a proper game of football. Credit Frank for a change of formation, good subs but mainly a proper structure to our play.

I like him. I don't love him yet but it feels like there's a grown up at the helm. We looked like a good team with a good spirit but crucially we looked like we had nous and controlled aggression.

Props to the boys who suffered in the first half: Bissouma, Dragusin, Gray. Kept going and adapted.

Oh, and a worldie! I'm alone in a bar in Cairo and made a right tit of myself when that went in. COYS!

I don’t think anyone disagrees, first 45 was Frankball and we need to be rid of it.

But at least the players showed that they have some life in them and gave some hope for improvement under the next manager.

It wasn’t route 1, it was running through Xavi most of the time. Direct, sure but route 1 was the first half.

Whatever the plan was first half is the reason I’m still Frank out. If get that second half more often, I’m open to seeing what he can do

After that : if we go to 5 at the back or a 4 with 2 DM's again, he deserves to be shot at dawn for crimes against football

442 / 4411 is the way for this group at the moment and absolutely nothing else

He does the same thing every game:

“Oh I need to keep it tight and maybe we’ll Nick a set-piece”, which results in us getting demolished.

Then we have to play balls to the wall to get back in the game. Then suddenly when it’s 2-2 he has something to hang onto, so settled for the draw.

GET HIM GONE (At the end of the season)

The players have a pride in themselves and look like they are at breaking point. It’s as if they just say fuck it and let’s go for it. Today is not the first time this has happened. Some will say they are playing for the manager but it looks like personal pride to me.

And that's how I don't know why ENIC couldn't replace him with someone like Xavi or Xabi both of who are available NOW to work on the hope and drive us up the table, instead of HOPING Frank will come good in bits here and there till the end. Is just not logical at all.

They are just stingy cunts.
