I'm sorry but that's an absolutely ridiculous comment. Of course you can lose games in different fashions. The end result may be the same but if you can't see the difference there's no point discussing it with you.

I agree the chances are he won't change, in which case the poor results will continue until his position becomes untenable. But if he does change then we'll see a very quick turnaround in results IMO. At the moment the balls in his court but it won't be much longer if he persists.

There is no difference we got 0 point. We score 0 goal. And we are still crap. I would not pretend things go better because the results proved it isn’t.

He will not turn around this is just blind faith to think this will happen.
 
There is zero chance of him binning zonal marking.

And I don't think we played well at all yesterday. We didn't create anything till the last few minutes. We were always suspect defensively. Our keeper was a bundle of nerves. We got out worked all over the pitch again.

I see no upturn in results unless you see 7 or 8 points from 11 games as an improvement.
You're probably right re the first bit.

Disagree re the rest. Much the better team in the first half which is why they changed it around at half time. Not as good in the second half but we still had the better chances. Agree we do look nervy at the back though and Pickford's form isn't helping with that.

Still maintain it was a chalk and cheese performance to the reverse fixture though.

So you don't think doing away with zonal marking will improve our results?
 

72% want him out, we will get nowhere constantly sacking our managers at the first bad spell of results.


When have we ever sacked managers after “the first bad spell of results”?

Never.

Not Moyes.

Not Bobby.

Not Koeman....the bad run of results which did for him were a reprise of the dismal autumn results of his first season and which indeed were his stock in trade at Saints.

Not Sam...it wasn’t the results he was fired for.

I have said on a number of occasions now....the reason patience is in such short supply for Silva is because of the sheer predictability of our current travails, based on his track record in England in the twelve months before Watford fired him.

It was a mad appointment and an obsession on Moshiri’s behalf which beggared belief then and which looks even madder now.

Now, I personally would not pull the trigger now. End of season for sure, unless there is a dramatic improvement.

But these fellows calling for his head right now......they are not mugs, they see the writing on the wall and calling for his dismissal sooner rather later is a legitimate enough standpoint even if I personally don’t favour it.

At the moment :)
 
He won’t change. He is stubborn. There is no going back, time for him to go.
Yes I think you're right. But that's not what I said is it.?

If he changed results would improve. If he doesn't he'll be gone. Possibly as soon as the next game. I don't know why you're arguing this point with me.
 

To think we were prepared to pay millions in compensation to Watford when we first made an approach for silva. It really beggars belief. Saying that, we’ll probably have to pay millions to sack him and his coaching staff anyway.
 
Those ‘Senior Pro’s’ were all players whose careers were under threat because they were either past it or garbage in the first place. There was Jagielka, Supergrass Baines and Mirallas.

Baines has never spoken out like that before or since... if you think bobby wouldn’t have taken us down you’re wrong
