4 wins in 17. Says it all really, the rebuild needs to continue but ole’s not the man to do it. We need experience and confidence.
Before Matic he was the signing I was aghast about, what was SAF thinking. One of the lead signing indicating our decline.
Thought I read somewhere he wouldn't manage there based on his loyalties during La Liga playing days.
We need a manager who knows how to build a squad and a DOF who knows how to get him his players. Poch and a decent DOF would be nice but even then I don’t trust Ed to give them the money they would need. I honestly don’t see a solution to our current problem. It may get even worse before it gets any better.
AWB is an elite defender but man he looks rough in attack. He doesn’t cross the ball, he just swings a leg at it.
Unless Pogs and Martial can come back by next Monday, Arsenal will be rubbing their hands at the prospect of coming to OT, even as inconsistent they tend to themselves...
Agreed. It’s clear that Ed is the roadblock to getting in a DOF or it would have happened by now. My hunch is that the job has been offered to some candidates but once they heard that it was a figurehead position without any power they withdrew their names. I think we’ll get one in by next summer, but nothing will change because Ed will have final say in everything.
Some poor management from Ole for sure. However is simple numbers for me - 7 out and only 3 in during the window from Woodward. So we are net; -2 CMs -1 striker, -1 defender. The defender we can cover, but the lack or replacements in midfield or attack is killing us.
