He's not played well since Palace in November and he's been horribly out of form since January 2021. This isn't knee jerk he's just not good enough.

Nope, not the year before either. It was when we were in the Championship.

Targett got players' player, I think. McGinn won fans award but has now, apparently, always been terrible to those who would use an ly excuse not to criticise the Liverpool midfielder.

Sorry to piss on your bonfire but Martinez won the Supporters’ award. I’m not pleased with how things are going but people need to stop making shit up.
being accurate is not an essential for posting on the internet.

But Gerrard is? What's the evidence?

Must have been year before then. Never mind. Still confused as to why you can't wait to criticise players but won't direct any criticism at the manager.

I’ve criticised him plenty. Playing Ings and Watkins together again beggars belief. Contiuning to play the woeful McGinn another mistake. Too early to be talking about sacking him though.

But then we find ourselves in the middle of a season having to scrape around for the best available manager. I'd rather sack him in May and get someone amazing in.

Do you not like McGinn Risso? You could have said sooner.

I didn’t actually think McGinn played that badly yesterday <ducks and runs for cover.>

I agree with cdbearsfan. Unless a manager is at a club with a realistic shout of going far in the European Cup, we could get anyone in Europe if we were to look in the summer.

I thought the same until he started turning the ball over to them once he'd run out of puff.

Yeah that's what I thought, Emi and Targett won the respective awards. Really Grealish should've had a clean sweep given our form as soon as he got injured but guess people wanted to showcase other players form.

I'd probably rank McGinn 5th based on 20/21 performances (behind Konsa aswell) so reality is he's just a mid table midfielder and eventually we're going to need better. I'd like to see how Buendia could do in his role.

Pochettino? He'll likely be looking for another job then.

I'd like to see him build a squad over the summer and see how we get on next year.

I think a big turn over of the consolidation players is needed.

I would be shocked if we could get him. 

I think if there is any chance of getting a manager if that calibre we would be crazy not to go for it.
