Even Dovin can be excused, new league, new team - needs to get comfortable. You can judge that in a year unless we keep chopping and changing him

Because everyone wants someone to blame other than the manager without understanding the roles each person does. same with the coaching staff. Nobody actually knows what role they’re fulfilling

Yeah the psychological profile. 80% of the team was here before her too.

Managed 2 car crash football teams and motivated them to playing well above their level both times? I thought he was an average player 2bh so it isn’t sentimental. I’m not saying get him, but I wouldn’t be opposed to him

Yeah because quite frankly that same man is an employee. the structure is one that’s used throughout modern football. It’s one that is relatively successful in pushing teams to that elite level. again - as I’ve said multiple times before, she’s got nothing to do with whether the players can...

It’s not though is it, it’s a proven success hence why most sides at our level and the one above run it the same way. I don’t want Robins to go, I’m frustrated like everyone is. But he needs to jump on board and adapt to the set up and concentrate on motivating this side. I think he’s got these...

The previous backroom was only going to take us so far though. Robins has to adapt to be fair - he’s shown he can when he’s previously had injuries and changed formation every season. the changes benefit the manager by taking things off his plate and allowing him to set his team up. It’s not...

Becuase the role of a performance director isn’t a short term role. It looks over the long term health of the club and looks at the strategy going forward. very much like the director of football. I’ve mentioned this before - the modern way of football is minimising the effect of a manager...

I’d argue their performance would be a lot better if they had a consistent set up, formation and general motivation. I ask again - who is in control of that? Who picks the team, motivates and gives the instructions. which of Delaney, Boateng and Roberts controls that

Let’s phrase it a new way - what decisions could George Boateng, Mark Delaney and Claire Roberts do to get us winning? what are they currently doing to make this currently a shit show

Yeah and that’s a Robins issue

This is a concern I have - that being said, Robbie Keane is a punt worth taking given he’d have to sack Robins who ultimately a legend

Player performance in terms of fitness, hence “ applying sports science to everything from injury prevention to strength and conditioning to nutrition” her other role is the psychological profile of signings. The director of football is Dean Austin, but he’s likely to be more involved with...

But that’s the same. She’s designing the profile of the players we’re signing. short term she’s about the long term development of the players. And even then from her words it’s the fitness aspect and sports science aspect it still doesn’t show she’s responsible for the day to day performances...

Basically you’re refusing to acknowledge that Robins is ballsing up. he’s directly quoted as being involved in the interview and selection process, he’s talked about putting in place a structure used by the elite sides. Ultimately he’s got the tools to succeed and unlike last year he hasn’t...

Right I’ve mentioned this in multiple threads - people’s understanding of her role is totally wrong she’s there to analyse the long term strategy of the playing staff. She’s there to put in place the pieces of the puzzle that will make the club successful in developing long term she isn’t...

2bf that might have something to do with Man City being a runaway freight train

Are the higher ups picking the team?

2bf these feels and spirit are for the fans. the main decision maker King owes Robins nothing

John Eustace. Blackburn are doing well but are a bit of a mess. We could tempt Him likely to be a coach we’ve never heard of though.
