Sgt Wednesday Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Playing fullbacks at CB because he doesn't want to change shape. Losing 2 of our starting CM's but continues to play 3 CM's when we all know 2 aren't ready and one is terrible. Tactically, he's awful. Get back to basics, round pegs in round f'kin holes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no coming back from this We had a better team and played better today. But as I’ve said, we are not creating the chances needed to win games. That hasn’t changed over the last 4 games and there are no signs it will. And, more than sufficient balls went into the box today for someone to get something.

When asked why he thought he was still the right man for the job, Monk told the media, “Because I believe in the work that I do… I’ve proven that I can win games in this league. It’s a tough moment, it’s the toughest situation I’ve been in. Not just this season. “But I have belief in myself, and that I can win games at this level. I believe I can do a good job for any club that I work for, and I want to do a good job for this club. “I’m not happy with my overall record, but there are certain elements that have gone into that that are out of my control. Ultimately it’s my responsibility, and I have no problem with that.” He went on to say, “Nobody will be hurting more than me - tomorrow, until the next game, whenever that may be, than myself - the manager of this football club, the manager of these players. “I have full responsibility for it all - put it this way, I’m not going to have a great weekend.” Thanks for that Gary...we're not going to have a great weekend either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Just go Monk. To give us any chance of staying up we need a change and we need it now. We can’t afford to wait any longer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn59 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Season is over already. Looking at upcoming fixtures there is not a chance of staying up. Yep the clocks went back to 1975 last weekend and it was just as bad back then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 1. We didn’t dominate. We had as many shots on target as Wycombe. They had 97 passes in the attacking 3rd compared to our 139. Dominate is the wrong word. 2. If they gave everything today then that’s the problem. The standard of what’s needed in too low. 3. You haven’t proven you can win games at this level. You was fired from Boro with one of the biggest budgets the leagues seen. You’ve only managed 6 league wins from 32. Just a bad week eh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did we play better, or were we playing a side that's really a League One side? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but he can't risk disrupting the 352 system that's been so successful. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonLeon Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 What do they talk about in the dressing room? If it hasn’t been Monk, one of the players seems to say this after every game we lose. Whatever they’re talking about it’s making zero impact on results and performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
