Tommy Crawshaw Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Monk is doing a grand job in making Jos look like a good manager. To be fair to Jos he had to deal with having more players out injured than there were fit and an embargo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why else would he spend what little budget we have on players who are already injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigash_swfc Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 We simply haven't got the players. The managers are using the tools provided or available. We don't put pressure on the man receiving the ball. We put pressure on the man, after he's received the ball. We allow time for players to comfortably receive the ball < thats the biggest problem we face and it comes from scouting and bad transfer decisions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Dross and Irvine have better records than Monk, that alone is a stackable offense. To have a record worse than those 2 takes a special kind of bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were allowed in the grounds, no doubt this spell under Monk since March will have felt far worse than Jos. Not signing Fred full time really set Jos back imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I watched the Monk interview with Alan Biggs the other week. Now someone will correct me if I’m wrong but I’m sure he said the he could foresee the problems that the club could and went on to have in the second half of last season and he told the Chairman this early on in the piece? Now would a decent manager think ahead to put plans next place to head off these problems or have contingency plans to take the edge off should they arise? From the outside looking in Monk did neither? Which gives arguably even more evidence to the argument that he’s not up to the task here plus since he went public with these incisive views, performances and results have dipped again. He really is f***ing clueless? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats an extreme example but if you look at Southampton, Ings, Adams and Long are like electric. It's not part of our recruitment policy to bring in this kind of athletic ability.

A good manager would either identify players to play a certain system or, play a system that gets the best out of the players available. A good manager would coach the team to play a certain way. Monk's done none of these! And that's the biggest problem I have with Monk, I see nothing in games which suggest any sort of playing style is being implemented. What do they do in training? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Not seen a positivity video released by the club in a while. Maybe it has all evaporated. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
