2019/20 Marco Silva

[dannyboy]

Last week we could all see the massive difference. This week we're a goal up and they caved in after a terrible refereeing decision.

We're not a million miles away from getting a run going.

IMO he has to win on Tuesday and follow up with a good peformance and result against Spurs. If he does that he gets 3 wins in 4 games and that's ok.

Let's see what happens in this next 8 days.

I feel like we are so far from getting a run together. If you can't win an away game then your whole season is going to be stop start. Throw in the fact we still have the big 6 to play home and away (as well as Leicester) and there are plenty of reasons to be depressed.

I take your point but they are all absolutely clueless away from home in the final third. I don't think a new manager transforms them into better players.

Sorry mate got to disagree. A decent manager gets better performances away from home with those players than we've had this season.

Struggling to understand what you want other than to just be furious with the whole situation. You don't win a trophy for staying in the league - which is all you seem to want from the next manager - but if we finish 7th at least it's progress on last season.

Mate you chatting in absolute riddles.

why people think the subs at 70 helped team score the goal and take the lead? there is no correlation, before the subs there would be Richy there where DCL got the ball and we should still score. How can you put Delph on while 1-1, mindless as seen after it was 2-2, we didn't create anything

We would probably win this game at home against Brighton even with VAR against us.

Things happen in games.

Fair enough it was a ludicrous turn of events today but even then you would accept a point and move on.

We got nothing and there was an inevitability about it.

We caved in mentally after the penalty and this is the problem time and again.

Players looking to Silva for inspiration in looking to overcome difficult circumstances are only seeing what we see - a manager who increasingly can't set us up to get anything away from home and has practically no answer to going behind, save for today when that still meant we got nothing.

He needs to go if we don't beat Watford.

what’s far more likely is another run of defeats and he knows that is more like the truth.

He is fishing for bites as usual, seems to enjoy these occasions.

Yet two points off relegation. We are closer to 18th. Much closer.

We are but we're not that far from where we expect this team to be. We shouldn't be two points off relegation (not that we will get relegated) and that lies with the manager, but all I'm saying is we shouldn't appoint the next person because we're two points above the drop with three quarters of the season to go. We should appoint them because they are aligned with the bigger picture that the club has.

Silva showed his lack of nous tactically again though Dave with the Sigurdsson and Delph substitutions, at times it was like watching a Sunday league game where everyone is all over the gaff, at one point I literally didn't know how we were supposed to be set - up.

First manager to lose three premier league games against Brighton - keeps breaking all the wrong records

Do you still think we should go for the fella at Southampton? Last season you thought he was the business

 

[Sharpies volley]

Mourinho or the ginger Mourinho? lol

I don't know mate. But then again I'm not paid to make those decisions, nor am I the owner of a magnificent institution and if I was I'd be seeking some expert advice on who to bring in.

Someone could definitely do better simply because it's been so bad. I just don't think they'd have us anywhere near the top of the league.

 

[GwladysBlue]

The amount of awful games we’ve had during his tenure is unreal. Koeman was sacked for much less.

He needs to be going before the Watford game. He loses that and he’s gone anyway, so we might as well keep our season alive now by sacking him before it.

Mate you chatting in absolute riddles.

I'm literally not. You don't win a medal for finishing 7th or 17th but I know which one I'd rather have. That is what I was saying.
