My Blood Is Blue Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 The manager can't do anything about what's happened tonight. He set us up well, he sent the players out motivated and ready to go and it was working... you cannot account for the appalling mistake. The manager though, does now have a job to do and needs to get the team focused again and going out like they did initially, sadly for us his half time team talks seem to have the opposite effect. I think we'll lose this from here, sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd25 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 2 minutes ago, boratsbrother said: What's costing us dearly is an unprecedented number of ridiculous individual errors almost every game we play. The number of times it happens has become almost freakish and imho it's down to nothing more than simple lapses of concentration, not tactics or how the team is being set up. Individual errors from the same players every week, usually Caicedo and the two buffoons at the back, I’m getting sick and tired of these lot. No idea what goes through their heads, other than the fact that they simply don’t read the game well enough for this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mostly have, but they also as a collective lack all the things @Chelsea_Matt listed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, he was was an underrated player. It's one of my favourite ever goals. The sheer nonchalance was a sight to behold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Fowler Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) I think the manager shares some blame because he needs to breed confidence and if were making mistakes he partly isn't doing that. As bad as Caicedo's mistake was - IMO Enzo is offering far less atm. It's like playing with 10 men in the PL. At least Caicedo is getting involved. Fair play to Mudryk though too - he's far from perfect and still does some really poor plays (like for the goal) but he has improved quite a bit in my eyes Edited April 4 by Max Fowler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 21 minutes ago, Bones said: I think it is also lack of organisation at the back, it is so messy Been messy for months. I'm not seeing any improvement. We can point at individual mistakes but it's up to the manager to coach and improve these players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it wasn't! We are playing a team competing for a CL place and were clearly the better team until that brainfart. We then have even more bad luck when hitting the post. We've had incredible bad luck this season - countless brainfarts. unusually high number of great goals being scored against us. Massive injury problems. Some managers, like Generals, are born lucky. Maybe Poch is just an unlucky manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
