What is the plan? Were are we heading?

[The binman chronicles]

I'm not in the know, but I would imagine that the plan is to steadily improve the squad over the next few transfer windows.

We got tonked by a team that cost a gazillion pounds to assemble and have hit a sweet spot at the moment. It happens, no need to cry into your cornflakes. Utd got thrashed and look how much better their team is. (individually anyway)

We knew we didn't improve as much as we would have liked to during the summer so we shouldn't be surprised that there are teams with far better players than ours. What yesterday proved is how important Gueye is to us. (anyone got any ideas how we can get the ACON'S called off?)

If we get a few more players like him in Jan hopefully we won't be on the end of something like this again. As for questioning Koeman and Moshiri, what do you expect them to do? Phone up Messi get him to quit Barcelona so we can sign him as a free agent or perhaps both could get their boots on and show our players how to really play? We can only work with what we've got, if the same things keep happening after January 2018 then I'll join you with the bedwetting.

like a man in charge of a huge coming force

Moshiri does not seem to be coming up with the goods I.e. Cash! And Koeman should be galvanising the players and using his expertise and experience to make them BETTER players rather than humiliating them. You know, man management stuff. OK, with the resources, he probably could build a Premiership winning side, but Martinez apart, couldn't most managers achieve that? The test of a good manager should be that he steadies the ship and develops a good team spirit, irrespective of resources; I'm afraid that I'm not seeing any of this from Mr. Koeman.

"We're better at defending set pieces" simply isn't good enough.

Bolassie and Gana are 2 of our best players. Ashley Williams has been solid. If we get 3 or 4 more players like that we will be fine. I have to say though I do worry a bit about Koeman's hunger for the job.

People saying 'we need this type of player or that type. We need better than Cleverley' etc. Why do we feel we deserve to win every game we play? We are not vying to be league champions and if we're truly honest with ourselves we are not in the mix for top four. The board have been far too quiet. We are a mediocre club and the ones in charge like it that way.

I must have dozed off mate...

I still have high hopes for our new owner, but I have to say I'd like to see some communication that isn't via Jim flamin' White.

Said it from day one mate, but was shouted down for it because it was unimportant, either that or we had no right to ask such questions.

Sorry, this feller is an absentee landlord every bit as the feller he bought the bulk of his shares off.
