I think you're over complicating a simple game.You need a plan. It need not be extravagant to execute in an effective way.We have suffered as too many managers of late have lacked a plan. Only O'Neill and Tim to an extent had an idea of how we were to attack.Pace, early ball out wide, quality of delivery, height and percentage football from set pieces (how many free kicks did Stan and Barry's arses win; arse out, fall over, Young whips in and He Who is Bigger than Me or You nods home.)Sherwood was found out pretty sharpish, but he recognised we needed to get it into Benteke as fast as possible, plenty of pace and flooding numbers forward.Bruce, Garde, RDM, SM MkI and MkII...I saw every horrible game and I couldn't tell you how we set up to break down the opposition. Lambert stumbled on 433 for a time.You need an idea and you need to recruit to execute it. We have ball players, not a lot of pace, a couple of very physically imposing young lads and some qucik full backs which means we ought to be able to peg possession quite high territorially. We don't and we amble. A decent manager with a plan may well be able to deliver something.Money and a plan. The club needed investment at every facet and it now has that. It has a lot of good players for this level the issue is we scoop them up, shake them about and drop them onto the pitch expecting results.We need a coach. SHQ is right.
No need for that, is there?Ads has said on a few threads he's had enough. Most of us try to give a manager a chance -even though the statistics show 99.9% of them will ultimately fail.

Maybe the final warning you received also got post in the post? Knock off acting like your gloating or you won't be posting here again.

Maybe he has an idea how to assemble this collection of players together. Laughable.
