Clarke interview

Team players and manager have let us down times now this week. Ever since that Utd game it’s knocked us out of our stride (lucky win at burton away aside)

 

For me this is simple. Pick your best 11, pick the best formation, and stick to it. Players at this level just aren’t good / intelligent enough to play in multiple systems and formations. They’re also trying to play a style of football that they aren’t good enough to play.
He makes substitutions at bizarre times that just seem to upset the balance /momentum of the team. He always says he makes them to win a game - I might be wrong but I would guess we’ve done the opposite and lost more points because of them
His methods of management unfortunately remind me of Steve Parkin who seemed out of his depth
He’s had 5 months with the players so to not know these things is poor
If you look at big val , he came in about4/5 games into the season and figures things out straight away
My prediction is hourihane will be manager by Christmas

 

It woukd help if he didn't keep changing formation. Pick the players in the formation he feels is the best fir to do the job and work on that. Its not schoolboy football we need!

 

Same ***** spouted different week. Blame the players pass the book getting boring now Darrell you have to take some responsibility for these performances.

 

If he can’t get the players to do the basics & they keep not performing as he expects, why not change it up and try some one else?
Doesn’t have to be wholesale changes but dropping someone sends a message out to the rest.

 

He's a fuckin first class c n t and I've encountered plenty of those unfortunately.

 

Ipswich got promotion from both League 1 and the Championship with the same 4-2-3-1 formation, but switching like for like. I do think that a good coach might see a threat which can be countered by a chanage in formation, but our changes don't seem to be countering such a threat.

 

Say what you see SD
