Key Player
That our players are now going down with cramp does speak well of conditioning and hydration management
I've lost all confidence in Martin. He knows what he wants to coach but he's obviously not capable of it. For the most part our players are shit; they're not even fit enough to do their jobs. Williams can piss off back to Liverpool (whoever thought he was a footballer?).If we don’t recover and win this, looking doubtful, Martin’s mission is not to get us relegated. He’s not inspiring my confidence.
If I were Cullen, I'd be in Martin's office first thing Monday morning, banging his desk, demanding a move to a club that has a manager who knows what he's doing!! I believe that Cowley at Portsmouth really rates Cullen and will play him....... if he can get him.He substituted Dhanda for Cullen. Took off a goal scorer forward playing out of position on the wing for a midfielder who is also not a winger.
I think he should be gone now, It's one thing to lose a cup game, Although it should never have happened, but we certainly cant afford to be losing league games on the bounce, with all the training time made available to him due to covid there doesn't appear to be one iota of improvement, less if anything. Why we ever employed him is a mystery to me, all he had in his favour was possession stats, but no goals. Even the Dons are showing some improvement since his departure. I say get him and whoever he brought with him out, before its too late, they've had their chance.I see that Cardiff are in the next round courtesy of a referee who denied Preston a late nailed-on penalty, which both S4C comms agreed was a pen. Rarely do we get such luck; but then we don't deserve it. Had we won yesterday, we'd have had another home tie against Coventry with a great chance of a money earning game in the later rounds.
BUT we failed to beat a team shorn of a player for some 90 minutes and blew it. Didn't deserve it with a display that was inept, lazy, thoughtless and downright unprofessional for the most part. I think next game up is in-form Huddersfield and a likely loss, which will make it five (?) on the bounce. Lose that and Martin can start thinking about his next job. Right now I won't be crying about that prospect because my blood curdles every time I watch us play these days.
75 Mins played and Arsenal not had a shot on target yet.On cup games I see that Forest are holding their own against Arsenal (who have 11 players on the pitch) and the comms are praising Cooper to the skies. One closeup of Cooper showed him yelling and bawling on the touchline. There was more animation in that one shot than he showed in two seasons with us.
Yes, I watched his 10 minute post match interview on the swans site, 10 minutes of shoulder shrugging garbage. Actually saying having not played for four weeks they were tired. trying hard to give the impression everything was everyone else's fault except his.Martins after match comments said we played with intensity . What the fuck is he watching ? All I saw was a team strolling through the game , no pace or precision, no passion and very little ability .
