Wurzel Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Looks like the players are really fighting for him, what evidence is there that he has lost the dressing room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Long balls and long throw ins against West Ham of all teams. Mind boggling tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These throw ins are embarrassing. We've scored what once from them? Too slow, too predictable. When do you ever get a top side using long throw ins?

HongKongVillan Posted October 31, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2021 The first time since the beginning of first lockdown I feel this may just be times up. Also, unlike last time, its getting evident perhaps DS no longer has the support of the players, something feels wrong within the core of this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mix it up does he? Doesn't seem to be anything clever about it anymore And he still has the problem that if the delivery is poor the whole thing falls apart, as we saw with Bailey on long throws...**** me that should have been put to bed after the first one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty angry after that shit, but the next 3 are Southampton, Brighton, and Palace. I'd probably give him those, with an expectation of better performances and 6 points. After watching that today and the form of Palace, Brighton and Southampton your taking the piss. All 3 teams will play us off the park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richp999 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Deans looks a bit upset in his interview.. Not just because he lost the game, maybe he 's on a limit of games to turn it around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Just back, not even sure what the score finished but honestly I'm finished with Smith. Such a awful performance all over the pitch. To the point that Nakamba was being cheered for tackling ffs. Disgraceful. I think I have cut Smith plenty of slack but enough is enough. 3 years and this is what his team is producing. He needs to be replaced regardless of what happens next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I don’t think it was lack of effort. Confidence is shot to bits. If people think a new manager will change that they will be very disappointed. But I guess somebody has to be held accountable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Too much competition right now for a decent manager - unless there is some obvious outstanding candidate that we can pick up quickly - I just don't see Smith being dismissed before he gets a few more chances to turn it around - and personally I think he will.

But you need a well refined system on top of that. That's the sort of stuff I would expect to hear from a manager fighting relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
