Markowski77 Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 4 minutes ago, dorian gray said: it isn't 'the biggest summer in years', that one was 3/4 and 5 years ago. the bulk of his squad is well past it's best, and needs moving on. several 'stars' seem to be unhappy, and not playing ball, but that's nothing new. they did that to jos before. wednesday have 'needed players with the right attitude' for more than a couple of seasons now. we cannot be sure what his tactics will be with a balanced squad, one not totally reliant upon fletcher playing. as for 'changing formation and tactics every game' I hope he does, we don't want another one idea, one tactic dumpling do we? our side is failing because fletcher isn't playing, monk is desperately trying to find an alternative, but we haven't got a half decent forward at present, so he alters tactics in that search. now from your post you either don't know a great deal about football, or you want him out 'cos you want more needless slow build up play, I think it's the latter. but thankfully on this occasion (though it's damaged us in the past) dc doesn't do knee jerk reaction, and monk will be here for the summer window. We are sleepwalking towards relegation - now isn’t the time to tamper , anyone who understands football like yourself know that? if you think midway through the season it’s a time to tamper with formations , personnel etc - we are bottom of the form league. With no sign of improvement With regards to biggest summer in years - yes it is, we have the mainstay of squad out of contract, getting the right recruitment this summer is imperative to our next 3 years. he has clearly shown he has no identity or clue with what to do, we can’t be a team who just lumps it to fletcher/nuhui as that is what it has been, truly awful to watch! In relation to slow build up play, I am open to that providing we have an idea, identity and structure that runs all the way into the academy with regards to new managers, I don’t have the answer than that - but it really can’t get much worse can it! Its great to have different ideas and opinions on here, I’m just hope we get our Wednesday back, and move forward - starting with DC at the top WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garry Monk is far less experienced, inherited everyone in the squad (barring his 3 recruits a few weeks ago), hasn't had a pre-season here, and has his hands tied somewhat financially too. I'd be looking to give our manager (whoever that may be come the time) at least 3 windows AFTER the summer clear out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no one could be doing much worse in fairness could they? 1 win in 10 bottom of the form table , sleepwalking towards relegation with dire performances I’m sure there would be plenty of candidates who could get more out of this team, than he is currently doing - I’m not advocating megson, but he would get more out of this team than Monk. Like ive said if he is given the chance, I really really hope I am wrong, and would love to be called out for that.

pazowl55 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 As soon as the four missing key players are back then results will pick up. Seasons gone. Dont think the EFL are stupid enough to relegate us via a points deduction. So unless we lose 10 of our remaining games we will be totally fine.

Owls Loyal Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Monk messed up at Leeds causing them to miss the play offs when they had a pretty decent team. He spent a small fortune but was kicked out by M'boro after less than 6 months amid total acrimony. He was sacked at the end of last season by Birmingham amid accusations that he had used an Agent to secure personal financial benfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markowski77 Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 The questions is to all the “Monk needs time” fans is; - Why? - What have you seen in our performances that he is the right man to take us forward?

Like ive said if he is given the chance, I really really hope I am wrong, and would love to be called out for that. But like I’ve stated earlier it’s just my opinion I can't see any manager who we could attract coming in and doing any better TBH; assuming the players continue with the same attitude and mentality. As much as I like Megson - he's one of us after all - if he's the best we can come up with, then we do have a problem. Monk is a solid, if unspectacular, manager at this level, with still plenty to learn. I can't see how it's fair to judge him with an inherited squad of players who are proven serial losers. He's probably one of the better managers we could attract with our current predicament. What needs to happen is the players need to remain professional, respect the manager, do what he's asked of them, and start picking up points.

I would love to know? As mentioned previously, he's a solid, if unspectacular, manager who has a reasonable record at this level; especially give he's rather early into his managerial career. He came in during a sh*tshow and got us into the top 3 before something clearly happened with some of the players around Christmas. Now I don't care for what has gone on, he's the manager and the players should respect that as fellow professionals, do what he's asking, and produce at the levels they are able to; which is better than 1 win in 10. Also, I don't believe we are that attractive a proposition for many, if any, managers better than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 This all smacks of excuses to me Probably only two of the out of contract players are regulars, and at least half a dozen of the side, will be Bruce signings. Do we now have to wait until Monk can bring in 25 of his own players, before we can properly judge him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls Loyal Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I have to say I totally disagree. Manager of SWFC is still an attractive job for many. Look how Bert McGee managed to sell the club to Big Jack, Wilko and Big Ron. They would have had plenty of other options. If you sell SWFC right we could land a manager far far better than the dull boring Mad Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still think Monk should be getting more out of the team, and don’t think he is the man for the job at all! still be there at St. Andrews on Saturday though - that’s the sad thing really , we must have MUGS tattooed over our foreheads mourinho, alf ramsey, and fergie together couldn't get our attack scoring without fletcher. they couldn't get a clean sheet either, it might want revie to buy us one.
