2 wins in 10 (league only)… -
We’d need to book a pretty big venue too…

You’d have thought that, if nothing else, after five years the squad would have fitted exactly how he wanted to play (formation and style) This is our fifth season back in the championship - why are we only at the start of a long term project… -
Confirmation bias

Oh I’m not worried, just curious 🧐- there may be an explanation and it’s just too early for me to see it for myself. -

Chaddy - in the WBA thread you’ve stated that ‘football isn’t about entertainment but winning games’ You’ve said in here ‘I don’t get why we need to change things up a bit’ Surely these are contradictory given we’ve won 2 out of 10 league matches since the World Cup break… -

I think expecting to lose is one of the things which can make a draw a good result -

Any particular reason? -

We might be weak at left wing back, but I think left back is one of our weaker positions anyway -

A reason to switch to three at the back or not? -

It was the Wigan result that was disappointing, the two subsequent draws (as you say) we’re both decent. -

Billy Jean - Michael Jackson -
Again, that all sounds plausible. In terms of refreshing his CV - I think we’d need a ‘solid’ remainder of the season for anyone ‘on the outside looking in’ to think (rightly or wrongly) he’s made any progress on what Mowbray left behind. If we ‘drift away’ he may well find we’re still the best available to him!

I know the games changed but I did prefer it when centre backs were judged on their defensive capabilities -
😂 Parker in his own words (GQ magazine interview): “I was brought up in a slightly older style,” Parker once said. “I don’t play with my collar up.” My dad told me to tuck my shirt in, look good and respect the game, so that has become embedded in me. I am really into looking as smart as I can and have been since I was a kid. I remember the first time I got paid, I went out and spent my wages on clothes. Style has always been a massive focal point for me.” Parker more accurately described: ’Topman sponsored gobshite’ (S8 & Blue)

I don’t disagree with any of this but how does this fit in with his narrative of a ‘long term project’? A multiple season strategy was never going to run completely to plan - particularly given how poorly we are run (which isn’t exactly a secret) I think he’s right to be ‘fuming’ about what’s happened, but surely even some basic research before taking the job would have lead to it not coming as a surprise. Maybe he just thought, “they can’t be as bad as I’ve heard”…
