I pulled this up from the match day thread.I see 0-3 or worse. Can anyone out there properly rationalise why I might be wrong?
I guess Westmeath was right.
I think Bondi77 did not expect us to lose 3-0.If you feel that way then why don't you go and put a bet on it as you will get very good odds?
Regarding the game, I have seen no change in the way we are playing and the results we are getting.
We are now 12th in the table, with Bournemouth who are just below us, due to play on Monday.
Anybody who thinks that ETH is going to take us to the promised land is completely deluded and should be sectioned.
ETH's tactics and methodology may work in the Dutch league but do not work in the EPL.
He has been one of the highest spending managers on the planet and the net result last season was 8th place.
It's depressing to see that our club keeps dropping.
Last year we reached a stage where we finished 8th (the lowest placing since the EPL began) and he kept his job.
We are now in 12th place after 6 matches. This must be another negative record - someone might be able to confirm.
I believe that INEOS are just as incompetent as The Glazers (they are proving it, right now) and do not have a Plan B, which involves replacing the manager to rescue this and next season.
To find a credible replacement in the Summer would've been tough, but that's what Senior Management are there for - to do those difficult tasks.
To find a candidate mid-season will be near impossible. And that's why I say INEOS are incompetent. They should've pulled the trigger in the Summer when it would've been easier to find a replacement. They didn't. Now they are in big trouble - they can't fire him because there are no good replacements and we'll likely finish in around 8th place again with ETH in charge.
