Well he had Torp who we paid £2m for today, not sure the argument exists. We are being tactically outmanoeuvred most weeks.

The “not providing a midfielder” doesn’t excuse the blatant can’t be arsed performance today.

Sisu provided nothing but the players we had still tried

Have to have Sakamoto on the right if fit. Our balance is all wrong. Thomas-Asante needs to be down the middle.
I have previously questioned the impact of the Performance Director. What advice has been given around recovery?! There is no way we should look so lack lustre at this stage of the season. Is it fitness or mindset? Both are the area of the Performance Director. I am not excusing the responsibility of individual players to actually show some heart. Just don't see any advancement on the pitch in the last six months - only the opposite.

Pathetic performance, Robins under immense pressure if we lose at Leeds.

Honestly my patience is starting to wear thin with the management team. All those coaches sat there but none of them have a clue how to change a game.

Yes. It’s been another game with problems all over the pitch and a bang average side has coasted to 3 points.

Trust me I would love to call for the manager to go as an easy fix, but I don’t see anybody coming in and changing our results with the depth in midfield. I’m just as frustrated as anyone with the terrible start.

Enter the relegation zone with a battering next weekend, then watch a Blackburn side that’s been properly coached take some points after.

Exactly.

He has no clue how to react.

We spent all game saying how mve was being doubled up on. They then scored from it.

Shame all the coaches, manager and iPads didn't see it

Having Torp doesn’t give us depth in midfield does it though? To leave any manager that sort is criminal. You bring someone new in that will still be the major problem they face.

I’m not calling for him to be sacked, but I can see why it’ll be a consideration if these terrible performances carry on. He would have been sacked for the same last season without all the credit in the bank.

He’s close to needing an overdraft at this rate

He’s sitting in a very precarious position imo. The managerial credit is not unlimited, wouldn’t boot him myself but feel DK will be losing patience with the lack of quality returned for the money.

Only a completely drastic, miraculous, uncharacteristic turn of form gets this team top 6. At the moment the thought of that is laughable.

On a positive note, it’s 3 points for me on the tweetleague.

Only 2 of the starting XI today were new signings and Rudoni was one of our best players. Docin’s done nothing wrong either. We have some quality players, as we saw last season, just not getting anything out of them.

It's true. If everyone in the stands can see it, then what the fuck are all the coaches watching? It's piss poor tbh.

Awful performance, no urgency, no press, call it bedwetting but the season feels over already. Swansea had a plan, none of our coaches or manager countered it quick enough.

We chose to spend millions on a goalkeeper and as many said at the time, that means fuck all if what’s in front of him is dysfunctional.

Binks and Thomas were fine, the midfield is weak and we look tactically inept

See DK getting stick for various things but don't get most of it. He's improving every part of the club and he has backed Robins with a lot of money for players. A lot of it was from Vik and Hamer but so what, most owners wouldn't give it all, he's given it all plus a decent wedge more.
This is on Robins and if you were King you'd be very twitchy about giving him more transfer funds atm wouldn't you?
