The same recruitment team that would have been assembled by Robins…
The same recruitment team that would have been assembled by Robins…I haven't seen almost anyone seriously suggesting he should go, but given the money thst has been spent, it is completely fair to ask some questions as to why we are doing so badly.
It is easy to point fingers at the recruitment team, but there's some good players in there. We aren't getting the best out of them at the moment and that sits with the manager.
Anyway...
Robins OUT
Slade IN
He has a point. It got more right than wrong which is more than can be said for the decision to blow £8 million on Wright.Sure, whatever makes you happy.
Wright missed chances he should have scored no matter what the formation isIt is an issue.
From the team sheet in the last game, honestly tell me who on there is capable of scoring a goal? Creating chances means nothing if you cannot score them. With the midfield we have, playing five defenders and one striker is counter productive.
He can’t keep missing forever (telling myself this while rocking back and forth)Wright missed chances he should have scored no matter what the formation is

Like I said in my last post, playing the box is a straight up admission that the recruitment hasn't worked. Look at the squad we have and honestly think who in there is capable of scoring a goal. Other than the strikers there is no one. Play one and if they have an off day you are looking at a Coventry City nil scoreline.
Yeah I agree about the recruitment being poor in places, but I don’t think that just because we play less strikers it means we score less goals. I don’t just think it’s our midfield that aren’t contributing atm, no one in our team is really contributing goals so I’m not sure if going with 2 up top matters that much.
I’d still rather see 4 at the back and play either 1 or 2 strikers but can’t see that ever happening any time soon.
The stationAnyone know what pubs they’re going to pre match?
Any takers?
But at least some of those midfielders will still need to play no matter what the formation is. The formation is not the issue in my opinion. It would be much harder to change formation now, the players have to get used to a whole new system for a start. He’s signed players to play the formation we have now so it’s a moot point anywayYou're qualifying my point.
Who else on the pitch is capable of scoring? No one. Which is why again we didn't score. If you play just one striker and they are off, it is going to be Coventry City nil.
We don't have the midfielders capable of contributing regularly.
Might try the grey friarThe station

That would be truly sensational if you are right ESB.I'm really looking forward to Eccles, Sheaf, and Ayari all to score today following this conversation!
I'd be surprised if Ayari plays. Possibly sub.I'm really looking forward to Eccles, Sheaf, and Ayari all to score today following this conversation!
I don’t think you quite got what I meant, I agree with you completely about those 3 players mentioned, I can’t see any of them scoring tbh but my point is that I can’t see any of our strikers doing well either. I don’t think our strikers are way superior compared to our midfield, I think currently all our players are playing to a sub-par standard, maybe apart from Sakamoto I’d say.I'm really looking forward to Eccles, Sheaf, and Ayari all to score today following this conversation!
Weren’t you moaning at @Saddlebrains for leaking stuff now you want early team news leaked
Sakamoto is skillful but he’s not really contributing any end product. All fart and no pooI don’t think you quite got what I meant, I agree with you completely about those 3 players mentioned, I can’t see any of them scoring tbh but my point is that I can’t see any of our strikers doing well either.

I think the thing we need is a load more clear chances to be created, not vast numbers of strikers to score them.
Been put on gardening leave for leaking the West Brom tactics?Nothing from me today im afraid, my mans on holiday
So it's a man eh? Getting closer to find out the identity I amNothing from me today im afraid, my mans on holiday
To be fair to him though he's opening the game up for us, especially at Bristol he took the ball back to goal and laid it off into space for another player a few times. We've got to try and stick with it imo, the same criticism was made of O'Hare but it's not just the more overt stuff which is important.Sakamoto is skillful but he’s not really contributing any end product.

That’s why we have been shit, the pressure of the elusive 2000th victory!According to Sky Sports News Coventry City are on 1,999 league wins. Will be the 7th team to make 2,000 when we next win
We're giving people 12 weeks before deciding their plan for the next four years is a disaster? Love it.The recruitment team have completely let down the club.
I completely agree, he should have at least a couple of assists by nowTo be fair to him though he's opening the game up for us, especially at Bristol he took the ball back to goal and laid it off into space for another player a few times.

People have very little patience. The brain in wired for instant gratificationWe're giving players and staff 12 weeks before we decide their plan for the next four years is a disaster? Love it.
I did a TL;DR version. Hope that's cool.Total load of reactionary shite.
Isn’t that Preston on 1999, not us?According to Sky Sports News Coventry City are on 1,999 league wins. Will be the 7th team to make 2,000 when we next win
