It really is very, very poor now though. I think ignoring the lifelessness is damaging.
Solution?
What about a holding pattern for a few weeks with Neil Adams taking temporary charge. Use the hypothetical new manager bounce to at least engender some spirit and enthusiasm. Players will know that Adams will have the ear of the new manager, so the current downing of tools should be allayed.
The players are poor, flawed and drifting however. So that is only temporary.
Once a reasonably short on-site acclimatisation period has taken place for Knapper, it might not be the worst solution to take someone like Per Mertesacker - currently Head of the Arsenal Academy - and encourage him to bring some of the brightest youngsters.
It can be surprising how even a small injection of quality can make quite a difference. Operationally and psychologically. You must present a credible way forward (for the remaining players).
Momentum is one of the most powerful forces in football. Right up there with assists and goals.
It goes in two directions of course.

1 minute ago, hogesar said:I suppose making OTT sarcastic comments is one way of going about it but not only has he been a key player under 3 managers and any interim managers, a team with a much better squad and an ex manager of ours proven at this level also came in for him.
But I'm sure they're all wrong and the PinkUn lot are spot on. It's fine, I get one manager. Possibly a second. But if someone on here believes they can judge a player better than 3 managers, all of whom have proven records at this level alongside one of those ex managers wanting him again, then fair play; you've got much bigger egos than I could possibly imagine.
Just watch the game mate

The booing directed at Duffy was from the Blackburn fans.

7 or 8 problems before you get to Kenny.
Having Kenny as Captain and CB suggests an enormous problem in Wagners and Webbers mind.
You get what you deserve.

Unless the new SD brings in a long overdue CDM to rectify the mistakes of the past few years.
Let's face it, we have better attacking / creative players than Kenny, maybe he's gonna be our new goalie, he hasn't funked up that position yet.

11 minutes ago, Cowboy said:What does span the gap between two seasons though, is player and squad morale. It probably shouldn't do, but it definitely does.
Player & squad morale was supposedly resolved by the addition of Barnes et al.
It was also supposed to solve Idah's issues and make him a street wise free scoring striker.

We are winning 5-0 by the 88th minute, two ridiculous substitutions and 6 own goals later...

Top six in which league?

By the time you're 65 you'd be sorted financially, why should you get a discount? Surely a younger person with a mortgage and family to pay for would be more worthy of a discount?

You didn't seem to mention having a plan b for when other teams work put Wagners tactics, which they appear to have done.

Tbf he always apologises when he gives the ball away.
He's always apologising.

3 minutes ago, hogesar said:When two of them are penalties and one of them is a foul on our right back I don't think it's worth reading into.
It's ok conceding penalties and goals where we feel our players have been fouled but the ref doesn't pick it up?
The league table doesn't deal in excuses, just the facts.
We shipped four goals.
-
Letting in four goals doesn't appear to be progress for tactics which are supposed to make us tighter at the back.

Used to be cushions you could rent for the game, unless I'm thinking of a different stadium, was many years ago.

17 minutes ago, S_81 said:We still desperately need a holding mid. The game passes McClean by and puts too much pressure on our defence. The weakness is glaring and I really hope they’re working on a transfer to address it.
No CDM and no creative number 10 apparently. Putting it all on hard, fast, organised pressing.
It's gonna end in tears.

As you said, we looked really good for the 40 mins when Toulouse played their kids.

It seems that the pinkun boys were invited to go on the preseason tour.
That simply suggests to me that the content produced will be sanitised.

It does taste like a doughnut!
Very very sweet 😞

It's a good thing to check on your balls.
In the shower with soapy hands is believed to do the job.
