2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[fandjango]

Nor are you likely to any time soon.

At any club.

That breed of player is fast becoming extinct.

Really ?

 

[Cool_Blue]

Marco must be having sleepless nights over the upcoming fixtures. New manager in at Huddersfield, and most of the top six coming here soon. Perfect storm gathering.........

It's not to 31st yet.

Exactly. This time last year we were on 28 points, so your maths is all over the gaff mert.

 

[HeadieTwo]

it feels bit weird coming to this thread and not seeing @BigBlueNose, its a process

 

[MikeH72]

At your request.

Let’s look at a kind of half time report then.

Silva is appointed in the summer. He has the pre season to look at our bloated squad. He quickly deals with underperforming/not assed players such as Ramirez, Bolasie, Mirallas, Martina, Williams. He brings in Bernard, Richarlison, Gomez, Zouma , Digne and Mina. All of which have been good signings albeit a little inconsistent.

Results so far have been pretty average, but in patches he has had the team playing some exciting and attacking football.

All this in around 7/8 months. Surely this is progress? Sure, the league table shows us in a poor position, but change needs time. He needs the summer transfer window. We have to trust Brands and Silva. So far their signings have been good.

Can you imagine if we changed the manager now? Instability, confusion, new style of play, new players.

Half time report for me, doesn’t say “ see me” at the bottom in red pen, it says steady start, looking to improve.

 

[BlueToff]

Just repeating what gets talked about in the pub and in work.

And it's a fact too, however you look at it. We are doing less well this season than last.

Now I brought it up to Mikeh as a continuation of a discussion we had a few weeks back.

We're two points better off now than we were this time last year.

So no, it's not a fact.

It's not good enough, like.

Comparing poor records as to which is the worst. Is this what we’ve become?

Yes, it is.

 

[TheSecondComing]

Dowell has already gone on loan.

Unless you mean our leading goalscorer Siggy?

Cos that would just be a stupid comment to make.

I mean the lad who you don’t realise is playing and then scores a consulation at god awful Southampton.

Are You Steve Walsh?

 

[Parker]

Yeah the one whos been directly involved in over a goal every 2 games.

 

[TheSecondComing]

Yeah the one whos been directly involved in over a goal every 2 games.

He’s always going to split opinion....

I think he’s passive and just lets games go by.

No doubting his talents but for me I rather have someone who would allow Silva to play 3 midfielders like he did at Watford

No way is this a “steady start”. A distinctly underwhelming start!

You would rather play Tom Cleverly you mean?

Have we got 3 capable. And dont mention Sammy Davies as one of those. He looked out of his depth against Lincoln

Yes, it is.

It is like two bald men arguing over which is the best comb to buy.
