We was well organised and got the job done. Unless you dont like football, i fail to see what was boring about the match? Call me old fashioned but I quite enjoy shots on target and taking game to the opposition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 To be fair the thread is titled Pulis is doing what he needs to do ie now. Not what would we all ideally prefer from a manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Can someone explain to me what else Pulis could have done over the last 3 games to improve our football into a more free flowing and free scoring style ? 1st game down to 10 men after 15 mins Second game , best we have played this season for the first half 3rd game just a battle and didn’t concede against a free scoring side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put Brazil 70 at 1 and John Beck’s Cambridge at 10 you don’t have to aim for 1. A steady 5 will do combined with the right manager. It’s about style and manager combined. Anyway you can be happy. Your man is in the job. Rejoice in all the pomp and circumstance he will undoubtedly bring to the footballing table. All we “haterz” can do is harumph from our settees. Couple of questions Ricky Which Wednesday managers have you liked ? Who would have been your choice to replace Monk ? Ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bore draw against a stoke team that has scored 11 goals in their last 4 games on paper is actually a very good result. A bore draw against a swansea side in the play offs who have lost 1 in their last 7 is on paper a very good result. And by all accounts wouldve been another draw against preston but for a mistake. It doesn't matter how good a team you are if you concede more goals than you score then you are in trouble and we are not a team to score lots of goals so he absolutely has to make us hard to beat and lay defensive foundations (considering the games before coming in we lost to Luton, Wycombe and Rotherham) and then build from there to work on the attacking side of our play. I'd understand it if we'd just sacked a manager that played attractive football but Moneks football was just as bad and would anyone generally swap boring draws against the better sides for boring defeats against the worst sides? We are so deluded as a fanbase that we expect free flowing attacking football, something that we've had a few times in the last 20 odd years. We need an experienced manager to come in and do a job to get us out of this season alive and TP is the man for the job and does generally seem to care about building the club back up. Get behind him, get to January so he can buy his own players and actually sign a striker that suits his system and get on with it. I agree, we are in a complete mess. Pulis is the best option to get us going again. I'm confident for the first time in years we are actually in safe hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just because its the thing to say with Pulis in charge? I think we was very well organised, showed a lot of desire, and on another day we would have nicked the win. Start from the first minute then work forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two things are not mutually exclusive. That’s the point. You can play attractive football and win games and stay up. You can also play attritional defensive football and loose games and get relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brand of football is what we need to stay up, tight defence and nicking games by the odd goal. Obviously the second part will be rare until we het some forwards in.

How does 37% possession, 5 shots in 90mins, and none on target whilst choosing to finish the game with 3 right backs , 3 centre backs, 4 midfielders and no strikers equate to “taking game to the opposition ?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
