Me too, but while Webber hangs about there’s zero chance of any change! The entire club is still in limbo from board room to dressing room, we’ve bought in old players just seeing out their careers and little motivation in long term plans! That needs to change! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

......and Smith must score. 1,360 Posted October 21, 2023 21 minutes ago, Indy said: We need to get a good coach who has worked with the new incoming SD, how about Carlos Cuesta? It’s a gamble as all appointments are but Ipswich seem to have done alright with their new guy from Man Utd. Maybe we should go with someone like him ? We went for an untested Farke and that didn’t turn out too badly. He can’t have been on a fortune in wages initially either. Wagner’s on a year long rolling contract so it won’t cost a fortune to replace him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buh 3,480 Posted October 21, 2023 Wagner is Webbers boy and my thoughts on Webber are very clear. He’s not the Diet Coke Farke, he’s not even the Aldi Cola Farke. He represents in entirety what we have been reduced to as a club almost perfectly. That this is the guy we attract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,315 Posted October 21, 2023 I’ve stuck by Wagner but the last four games have convinced me he’s got no balls to drop senior players even when it’s clear that our CB pairing are far too slow, too old, the best performance came from young Warner! Pace and calm! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would rather have someone starting out who at least will learn and improve. This clown is hopeless, and that’s after Smith. How about the Arseanl Ladies coach Eidevall?

I think he'd become one of the youngest coaches in the history of English football at just 28. For that reason, he'd probably prefer to be an assistant to Arteta for a few more years before making the jump to senior management. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarybubbles 1,941 Posted October 21, 2023 What is really frustrating for me is that we have a player in Sara who is clearly at a level above Championship level. If any other club in the Championship had him - other than perhaps the relegated sides - they would build their team around him, make sure they had a solid defence, give Sara the freedom of the park, and rely on him to produce goals similar to his goal today. We are wasting him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even in the first half we rode our luck on several occasions, and had Leeds' woeful finishing to thank for going in at half time level. But generally, it wasn't a bad performance. The lack of tactical awareness in the second was pretty shocking though, and I'm not sure what Wagner was thinking. I like the fact he has a consistent plan, but the plan does leave us open quite often so I'm not sure why you wouldn't tweak it when we were 2-0 up in the second half against a very strong team with several talented forwards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaberry2 556 Posted October 21, 2023 The fact is injuries have killed our season before it really got going. Then disappointing replacements brought in haven't helped. The failure seems like from above in my opinion and Wagner doesn't really have the personnel, or he doesn't seem to want to pick the right team. Personally Gibbs, Idah, Hernandez shouldn't of started today. I would of brought in Forshaw to add some steal, if we brought in Hwang I would rather stick with him as he has some pedigree despite not seeing it yet. The reliance on waiting for Sainz, Barnes and Sargeant to come back from injury is really only our slight glimmer of hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
