2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Will be interesting to know what is everyone expectation next season under Silva?

If Silva spends a wad of cash in the Summer, then I expect a top 6 fight.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Not pretty and poor first half but improved in the second half and pulled out a gritty win today, more of these please.

More of those wins, not those performances.

That was a really poor Bournemouth side that have been shipping goals for fun. It was a horrible first half apart from a small up turn towards the back end.

Still massive reservations with the tactics, there’s holes everywhere in the midfield. He gets a few points for putting the boot up there arse at half time but I feel if Wilson had played we may not have won

I expect 7th next season and I expect the rough amount of net spend like last summer (for this summer).

I still expect 7th this season. Next season we better be stronger at home against the lesser teams.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Very difficult to have a discussion about this sort of thing with people who will apparently say with a straight face that DCL isn't fast

I never said he wasn’t fast.

 

[Wat Tyler]

I agree with both of yous there mate.

I am a two faced get.

Need the CM to get closer to the CB? Quite a few times Zouma dragged out from position by their players leaving massive gaps behind. Scary way of setting up such defence.

Yes

Let's be honest, great to win, 3 points, clean sheet, but if we play like that against a competent side and were losing the match.
His tactics are shocking, Bourmouth at times had criminal amounts of space.

On a positive I think his subs were perfect today, maybe a bit later but I was worried about Bernard and Richarldson getting second yellows.

 

[vinvinvin]

Positives signs today in a tough game. At least it’s clear the players are still playing for Silva as they had to dig in, and gave a reaction when he obviously asked for more at half time. We haven’t been the same since the derby but maybe grinding one out like today will be just what we need to get some belief back into the team.

 

[MikeH72]

This time last season we had 28 points.

Aye more gritty wins

 

[JL94]

Could be a Baldrick-esque “cunning plan” for next season!

Get Marco on the phone now!

I'd love to know what goes on in training because the team lacks what it had at the beginning of the year. The pressing is gone, that's just literal fundamental stuff. It's not even confidence. Closing down the opposition is literally just running at them. Confidence plays no part in it but that's completely gone.

This is what’s baffling me. It’s not the same setup. At the start of the season people could easily get on board with what was trying to be implemented

But that’s just gone now
