No, I dont.

And that "football" today was horrendous.

I have no great desire to fight Silva's corner, believe me.

But I wont be conned into believing he;s the main culprit. That 'honour' falls to the idiot buying rubbish players and crocks.
I think the truth lies somewhere in between. We did recruit well last year, but the signs aren’t good this year. However the squad overall shouldn’t be in a relegation battle and Silva has to take a lot of the blame for that.
 
He’s been unlucky with injuries I’ll give him that, but the football we play is absolutely awful. It’s so stale, I think we must be the easiest team to play against in the league. Other teams only get beat by us when they have a nightmare, anyone who has a half decent game either beats us or gets a draw.

He’s got to go but I have no clue who for, so fair play to Moshiri if he does sack him cos it’s slim pickings with the gaffers out there.
 
1-1 and still 17th.

Silva will have the Gomez injury, 2 VAR decisions plus a last minute equaliser to help him through another week.

All in all, he is on thin ice and he needs binning off as quick as possible.

Southampton away will be his last game
 

...big challenge for him now losing the creativity of a Gomes. He needs to find a solution that works, it really is down to him, it’s why managers are paid so much.

That's why I hate it when managers try to defend results Eggs with "Yeah but we were missing X,Y and Z players" Nowadays managers are paid an absolute fortune, so they should start earning it by stopping with the excuses.

So Brands told them all not to have any clear goal scoring chances till the 97th minute? To not show any urgency before or after said goal to actually try win the game after Son was sent off? To not kick up more of a fuss over 2 penalty claims or use our record against Spurs as a defence like Silva done after the game?

He’s bought this manager a squad of good players who are far better man to man than to be sitting near the bottom of the table, and that is down to poor management from someone who’s been living a charmed life for 10 months

He has had most of the players fit this season, definitely enough to have us higher in the league. It’s no excuse really.

He has enough quality in this squad to be pushing 5/6th in the table the way the league is now, especially with the run of fixtures we’ve had. Only Leicester have grabbed the opportunity of the league being so poor, and there’s no reason why we shouldn’t have.
 
He won't go tomorrow,.however for about the 4th game In a row I've said but I'm fairly certain this time that if he doesn't win against Southampton he has to go.

Both summer windows saw late business. That was a commonality. It doesn't help a manager that's for sure.

I dont rate Brands. I think he;s second rate masquerading as top notch. He's nowhere near it.

He has a very simplistic methodology abourt signing youngish players discarded by elite clubs.

It's not working. And he looks clueless to me.
