Tackle I don't see many of our soft players putting challenges in . That's part of the issue imo . No pressing the opposition and when they cough near them our players do a roll over and expect a foul . meanwhile the opposition are 15 yards up the pitch attacking.
They was so vocal because they believed the tripe, like some on here that pochettino was waiting in the wings for the mighty Aston villa.....it was delusion, not vocal support
Need more from him, and if his ability to do his job is being limited by Jeff, then more is needed from Jeff.
People are criticising his involvement with first team affairs (even though he’s a qualified coach and we’re short of coaches due to sacking them all). I think a lot of people on here want less from him.
'Distinguished' ? I recall him as a player being one of those who, whilst on the pitch, offered no discernible end-product.
Played regularly in top flight/2nd tier for Blackburn, Leeds and Newcastle from what I remember. Always seemed a level above us in the 90s. Think he may have had some England U21 caps as well? Dunno.
I think there’s a suggestion Saïss has made some comments about Sellars. Thread has gone off on a bit of a tangent.
From there website
It does indeed.
I don’t know his stats.
Probably because the tweet about Saiss' interview has a video link to Liam Keen saying Sellars is having input on a tactical level during games. Nothing directly to do with Saiss as far as I can work out
We’ve not only been in a far better position than we have for the majority of the last 35 years, but we were also in a position where we had a really strong foundation to build upon to go even further. In my opinion, we will lose our captain in the summer at the latest.
We shouldn’t you are right we should have a coach and backroom staff but we don’t and so Sellars is assisting or standing in for the in game analysist that was Bruno’s brothers role.
The position we find our self in isn’t good enough for me, that’s all I’ll say on it as just noticed what thread we’re on.
But he was interviewed on the basis of us still employing a head coach and Edwards being part of a ‘new’ setup. This wouldn’t be over Davis at this point.
He failed at city….
Exactly. Utterly bizarre that people can't see that our current run of form is down to not having a fit striker to finish chances.
So what you are saying is we need to bring in someone like Edwards to help out? You know, just temporarily.
And who was in charge of planning that?????
We needed to plan better full stop. To answer your question though, that for me would be preferable so that Davies can carry out the task he’s been given, without having hierarchy (Sellars) dabbling in it.
It isn’t just that in my opinion. Lack of goals throughout the squad is a big problem.
A good striker would have 3-4 goals now maybe?
Yep. Not enough goals from our midfielders, full backs or support attackers.
Off the top of my head, Donk at Spurs, Costa at West Ham, Costa at Palace, MGW against Fulham, Raul at Bournemouth
Oh dear!
I said earlier that maybe ‘distinguished’ wasn’t the most accurate adjective to describe his footballing career (albeit much more distinguished than the majority of professional footballers who a) don’t play in the top flight b) make 500 professional appearances or c) represent their country at U21 level).
I said decent career in my last paragraph, wouldn’t have been cool to slag off the definition you gave without sharing my one.
