They draw too many games, but rarely lose.
Mount and Shaw travelled with the squad today he said in an interview after
And you want to bring an ill player to an away game in terrible weather?
Just his game face. He doesn’t like losing, it’s a good thing. He’ll make damn sure to turn this around!
You could be right, and that's why my second part in my post says Amorim should not allow them to revert to type.
Dont agree. He has shown to be ruthless with the smaller sides. 70 pct of the times Sporting got an early goal, they ended up crushing the opponent (3+ gd). Slowing down out of sloppyness really puts him off. Soon we will see i guess.
Doing the double on them in successive years with Van Gaal was better, but still nice to not get mullered today.
No more leaks
Disagree, yes, Eriksen, Cas and Zee aren't very physical, but they and everyone on pitch vs Newcastle didn't try at all, and today they showed up, for me it always has been a collective issue, last night everyone was on it, everyone including the subs, even Zee was tusling and pressing and all, and then vs Newcastle, it wasn't everyone, to be exact none was on it, and you can see the difference, this is why Amorim is very upset despite the great performance, because he feels these players don't always give their all.
I’ll let you in a secret, the chances of him been ill are very slim
Of course. Will be interesting to see what happens now, especially with MR out of the picture too.
Yea he’s had very little time off the pitch for training which is surprising g that he’s been here 2 months. I have full belief that if Utd back him we will have success.
But a high chance he was hungover
I must have PTCD (post traumatic Caf disorder) because I read this as he should be sacked first time round!
It’s always far quieter on here when we do well. It’s sad really.Curious there's no sign of the posters calling for his head the past few weeks
No turned corners, no dawns-false or otherwise. It wasn’t anything like that. It wasn’t even a step forwards on a long road back, all it was for me was a reminder of how we can/should play and just to show we have the quality to forget about relegation IF the players apply themselves correctly in every game. If that was ever a real concern (for me it wasn’t) then I think it has to be put to bed now. Look forwards!
You could have Complex Post Traumatic Caf Disorder. Prolonged exposure to moaning about the fact that we've been shite!
Should’ve been sacked the next day.
Yet here we are with fans urging us to reach the ultimate highs of EL or Conference League every year to make sure the next season is also almost never about training stuff but about regeneration.
I think, you underestimate the magnitude of the job. To give a team an organisation, a synchronization is quite a difficult thing to do I guess. Especially with a squad with many players starting almost from zero in this aspect (given how badly organized we are since years) and with mentality and physicality issues on top. The things Amorim alluded to in his latest interviews show, that some players have to learn to restrict their instincts because they have to understand not only to do the right thing in any given moment but the right thing for the team. It will take some time for our players to really understand their roles. And once thats achieved, we'll slowly collect some fruits in terms of patterns of play and raised synergies.
Yep I'd say they were alright!
It’s true that he’s had more time with them in training this week, but you can’t train to fight more and believe more, which they did all over the pitch. They need to carry that belief and desire into every game and they’ll be in the top 5 before the end of the season. There’s no excuse for the levels they’ve displayed in recent weeks.
That’s been clear to see for weeks baring the City game.
