SwellOwl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Any Manager will need time to sort the squad out. I do believe Monk can do that but he will need at least the summer to clear out the yesterday players and build a fresh, hungry team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Also would be nice if Monk was able to bring his own staff in to try and help him with this massive job. As much as I like Bullen as a person is he part of the problem? Personally I think we need completely new ideas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Personally would only keep Dawson, Fletcher (1 year contract) and possibly Fox depending how he performs for the rest of the season. The rest of them can go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The others can go, including Fletcher who has been poor value for money, despite his form this season (which is now over) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I try and drive that every day but also we need some time and there’s a process. We need to take the negative out. You can’t just change those things by talking. The bigger picture is changing the culture , mentality and environment of this club to get it where it needs to be. That’s my determination. That’s what I’m here to do. That’s what I’ve set out to do and I’m trying to do that as quickly as I can but it’ll need time. It needs fight. And attitude. They are working hard (the players) . I can promise you that. I have given them an opportunity but of course there’s a need for more than that. That’s part of moving forward. These have the opportunity now. But moving forward, they have to make sure they’re coming with us. I’m realistic. I know what know to be done here. I knew that before I came here , I was well aware and I'm working every day to change it. Garry Monk Let’s hope he delivers, it’s been obvious for years now this is needed. In fairness to GM only other manager I can recall saying this was Bruce. Going further back Meggo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are ways of getting fans onboard. Bitching at fans is not one of them. He could have called back to a game when the fans rallied behind the team and pushed us on to victory. He could call upon a time he managed against us and lost, and said the Wednesday fans were immense and were a big part in why he was beaten that day. It might be BS but it’s a damned sight better and more effective than saying “we need to change the culture”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Good that it sounds like Monk does indeed realise what most of us have felt for years that there is something seriously wrong with the mentality and desire of the majority of these players. Hope Monk gets the time to reshape the club and is allowed to bring players he wants in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horny owl Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 If wilder walked through the door at Hillsborough tomorrow he’d get rid of most of these players and replace them with younger hungrier lads who’d not hide in games while collecting stupidly large wages The overhaul at this club is well overdue Sick of the same sh!te seeing this spineless squad just getting older 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the players go into reverse mode and let him down He is trying to get a system to suit them, tried everything but 352, but every time it begins to look like he has found one he gets another non performance. Losing Fletcher has been a major blow. He has also had to do it while winning games and trying to pick up points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players here now have the opportunity to show their strength of character, it's up to them to show it and improve or its time to get gone. Agreed There’s plenty of players plying their trade in the PL that don’t have the ability of many of ours, but their graft, drive and application has got them to the top. We need some of those Edited January 22, 2020 by Stoop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
