But cant see anyone doing a whole lot better with the current crop of players who have an over inflated opinion of themselves. I'm not sure he wants the job anymore.

cowl Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 His reasoning about why Hutchinson finds himself unlikely to be picked again doesn't really even stack up. Up to his exclusion, he'd missed only two league games this season due to injury, and three due to suspension. Compare that to the number of times Luongo's picked up an injury this season. His absences have been far more disruptive this season and he's not managed more than three consecutive games for us. Are we to assume that if Monk, true to word, is only going on his time at the club and not on 'past CVs', that we'll not see Luongo selected any more either?

thekimmyowl Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 The injury excuse from Monk is something he can’t back up and he needed pushing on it by the press, maybe that’s something they can do next time with cold hard facts and show that Monk is talking from his derrière Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 "It's not the manager . I don't know how many managers I have had since I have been here but this manager, I will speak on behalf of the team, he's a top manager. He wants to win. A massive thing for players is your manager wanting to win, he's been there, he's done it. That criticism (of him) needs to stop now, the manager stuff. It's nothing to do with the manager. We (players) need to start taking the blame now, because previous managers got it. Some fair some not. I have worked under a lot of managers and from that changing room there, everyone is behind him. Fans are fans, they are going to have their say but for me personally I think he's a very good manager." Barry Bannan - 23/02/20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Bannan - 23/02/20 Always take the players praising the manager in public with a pinch of salt. They were hardly paying for Monk in the games I saw before Wednesday night. I am personally ambivalent if Monks is here next season or not, but if he is the club must allow him to bring in a coupe of his backroom staff.

Well there's very few that come out in public and slate the manager, true enough. Though coming out in support of him without much prompting does make me wonder if it's actually a genuine call to back off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jos went on to gain 1.4 points per game. A 100% incline. Monk inherited a team that had picked up 1.4 points per game in the last 10 under Bullen/Bruce. Monk is currently on 1.27 point per game. A 9% decline. Players similar albeit 18 months older. A major difference is that Jos hasn’t hinted publicly which players he wants and which he doesn’t unlike Monk . More worryingly Monks last 10 W 1 D2 L 7 PTS 5 0.5 per game 23 points over a season and rock bottom of the league in any season. That will be all your honour. Not that long ago managers were measured over a few seasons, now its ten games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
