Telling us that because we’ve got Beck doesn’t mean we’re going to play hoof ball but then plays hoof ball to Beck for 90mins.
And just to confirm the “no hoof ball” claim he signs another 6’+ forward.

3 big lads up front but nobody to cross the ball for them! Puzzling.

After 3 games unbeaten without conceding a goal?

I agree with much of what you say but to expect a manager to say that his team are performing at 100% would invite ridicule. Perhaps “there are still things to work on” might have been better. AB’s regular “we know where we have to be better” is the one that annoys me more as we never seem to get better, accurate passing, as you say, is one of the main areas. A basic for a professional footballer you’d think.

I fear it’s in Roberts position after January.

We’re not entitled to success, and clubs across the country regularly get it wrong. Including among those with high budgets for their level. I think some perspective is needed, instead of constant melodrama.
Not entitled to success no, but we have the tools to be successful at the level we’re at. As for clubs getting it wrong, we are and, I think, as fans we’re entitled to point that out. ( Calls for sacking going a bit too far at the moment IMO but he’s on very thin ice and has to respond quickly.)

Maybe Russ has learned from his mistakes? Absolutely nothing wrong with a manager changing his tactics to improve results.
I knew a post like this (not necessarily from you) was incoming.
Happy to oblige.

And therein lies the problem IFA, or at least part of it IMO. A “must pick” captain with a one dimensional game that’s too slow for the way AB says he wants to play.

A KUTA from the board, fair enough, but I wouldn’t want to see them advising on football matters.
Anyway if AB doesn’t listen to Bru he’s not likely to take any notice of the board.1 user thanked author for this post.
Just listened to the RH post match interview. Pleased to hear Ollie Turner ask a few more difficult questions than James Moody. The big finish was “we are not too far from where we want to be”, if AB thinks that then we’re in real trouble. In terms of performance we’re miles away from where we need to be to win this league.

Whitehall Beck (up to Williams to displace Beestin, Whitehall or Beck)
Would do for me, still plenty for a decent bench as well.1 user thanked author for this post.
I still think the 3 CBs causes the problem if the 3 are not experienced in the system. 3 CBs marking 2 forwards allows for the “one of the others will mark him” option often leading to unmarked opponents left to score. Sound familiar?
