undecided. he needs more time but hasn't impressed so far despite signing some decent looking players. doesn't seem to know how to set out the players at his disposal at the moment.

See how we fare by January.

 

If none of the obvious problems have been ironed out then perhaps he's not the right man for the job.

 

To be fair he's been making some shocking decisions that are painstakingly clear to almost everyone but him. He comes across to know what he's talking about but if you take into account that someone like Bobby Robson didn't for half his career it begs the question if it really matters that much.

lets write this season off as a learning season. learing we need FUCKING CREATIVE BASTARD PLAYERS RATHER THAN THE 2BOB SHITE WE SEE WEEK IN WEEK OUT.

 

thats better!

 

We've needed that desperately for 2.5 seasons now.

He's clearly made some mistakes particularly in terms of team selections and bumming Smith and Geremi but I do beleive he will get it right although in the next two games it may well get worse before it gets better.

We have to get some stability in the club, I admit I was calling for the head of the last two clowns we had in charge but they were clearly awfull appointments from the off. Their records suggested exactly what we were going to get, but SA's record suggests he will get things right.

We have to remember that under Robson we had two bottom half of the league finishes before he got it right. Sam isn't going to correct things overnight, there was far too many problems for that, but I do think he will sort us out.

I agree with the general sentiment, I do think Sam will improve things and that it will take time. Id settle for a top half finish now. At the moment though, Im not sure and like many Im loosing confidence in him fast. Largely due to his style and selections. I was impressed at the time how well he acted in the transfer market though. But as you say, I do think it is going to get worse first. I cant see us getting anything from our next two games.

 

We need players to dig in at the moment. Only evidence of that Ive seen so far is Butt and Milner when he gets a chance.

I'd rather not revisit that particular debate ;)

In such a short space of time, we've gone a long way (backwards) in an offensive sense from having Robert/Nobby on the wings with Dyer coming from the centre.

 

Zog and Milner have the potential to provide the ammo though, Sam is just not getting us to play that way and seems he'd rather have the likes of Geremi or Smith our wide. Im at a loss with that one like.

Not enough options tbh.

Aye there's no option to sue him, for taking the job under false pretences, i.e. like him making out he's actually a manager. To the 17 who see sense, I'm with you all the way, and as yous know I'm no KBJ, I've seen worse than this.

I think its dificult to ask much of an improvement from the players when the managerial decisions are making more of an influence on the disapointing results far more so than any short comings from the team, in my opinion.

We cant create any chances and look hapless going forward. Our gaol against Pompy was an OG, Our goal at the stadium of plight was a fluke, we couldnt break down Derby for fucks sake, our goal at reading was an OG and to top it off we couldnt even get a shot on target, at home against Liverpool.

 

In the past with our shite defences we have at least scored goals but now our defence is shit and our strikers are even shitter. With players like Viduka,Owen,Martins,Barton,Emre,Zog and Milner we should at least look half decent going forward but we look like we dont have a bloody clue and that has to rest firmly at the managers door for wanting to play kick and run

 

Either he can change the tactics to suit the players or he can fuck off either way I`m not that fussed, I just want someone who can play entertaining football and show we are making in roads and have some tactical nouse too
