Yeah it's very weird they also seem to have repeated the exact pattern decent to ok firest season than picking same players constantly and not changing. Looking completely hopeless by the end.
Is it the pressure of expectation that makes them go safety first or the players downing tools or thinking they are better than they are? Or a bit of all of it?

I dono. Its defo some type of pressure it is, it makes them freeze up. not changing teams formations and just doing the same thing has an element of stage fright about it.

Could be why we play better against the top six teams. When we play anyone else the pressure is on to win. Same last season when the pressure was off we went on a good run.
 
For me, the future of managers is young expansive attacking managers.

Obviously at 49, he's not necessarily young, but his approach at RB Salzburg turned heads, he then moved onto Young Boys, in a league monopolised by Basel for the last 20 years, and he made them champions for the first time in 30 years.

He went to Frankfurt, and he signed young, attacking flair-like players, and he's basically making Eintracht a force again. Beat Bayern and won the cup, their first trophy for 30 years and he's developed some really quite good attacking players. Haller, Jovic etc... that's what we need. A manager who isn't afraid to go at big teams, is attacking orientated and Eintracht play some really nice stuff.

The likes of him, Nagelsmann at Leipzig etc are the people we should be going for.
He wins football matches, that's a plus.

 
I think you are onto something mr Death. The mentality is weak and has been for years in this team. See also never coming back from behind
 

We need to get a shift on as I can see Utd binning solksjaer very soon. If that happens before we get rid of Marco I can honestly see us keeping him.
 

Him too! I'll have a Google for the actual statistic, but it was on Sky the other day. On another point, why would the likes of Howe or Dyche currently come to us?
1) Loads more money

2) massively bigger club

3) chance to do something better than what they can achieve with their current clubs

4) bigger transfer and wage budgets

5) chance to gain a bigger profile

I don’t want either of them. But they would both f*****g jump at the chance to manage us.
