pimpin4rizeal Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 I’m kinda sorry having to say this as Ralph is a super likeable guy.. the way he took in the last christmas song last year was totally endearing... but even before this game I was starting to think the player selection and other aspects is going totally nuts.to start with I think gabbiadini was better then Austin and long for sure.. but Ralph gave no chance to him.. Cedric probably also better then valery.. but sent packing but now seems to be back in contention.then you got this season with the weird Danso moves.. dropping boufal who was our most creative player.. and to be honest if Ralph being manager means ward prouse is the first player in the sheet and out talisman we are in serious trouble for that alone he looks blind for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Let's be honest, is it the managers fault in the grand scheme? No. This is the worst group of players I've ever seen. I'm not talking about pure ability, more so about attitudes, character, leadership. There’s nothing in this group, just a meek mix of utter wimps. I dislike them so much. Hoj can **** off if he's a captain. He's been half the problem since he's been here. I hope he reads this too, and JWP. Meek and characterless, this signifies the entire group. Unfortunately Ralph just hasn't had the backing, anyone can see that. Well done to our horrific ownership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird of the land Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Last season he came in with enthusiasm, a plan and a desire to involve u23 to some degree. Whatever has happened behind the scenes, there’s little of that. I do feel we are getting to the villa/Sunderland situation where a relegation is coming at some point and is maybe necessary. If he’s up for the fight, keep him otherwise shake hands and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Kerplunk Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 The back room staff for the first team are terrible and you can see he has nobody to turn to. Since the club let Koeman leave because Les didn’t like his high profile it has gone from bad to worse. I know a couple of people who work at the club and they say the leadership is as bad as it gets and Gao is not going to invest a penny than Kat ripped him off for and never will. Make no mistake, we are in big trouble and if 0-9 doesn’t wake people up from their complacent slumber then it won’t be a slow match to relegation. We march on my arse!

Not been nipped in the bud AGree completely. While Puel was not everyones cup of tea he got the most out of a shocking bunch of players than anyone since. Ralph seems to have no idea - his decision making this season has been baffling to put it mildly. AT the time, I would rather have kept Targett over Bertrand. Bertrand has been diabolical this season (and last). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctoroncall Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Genuinely, who cares? With our ownership, we'll never do anything again in this League. Football has become so skewed towards the big teams that there is no point anymore. Get into another sport, that's my suggestion. I cancelled my membership this season, and Sky Sports, and bought NFL Gamepass. It's such a better sport, it's just a shame you don't have a local team to support...yet. Local teams don’t matter... it’s not GO DALLAS! But GO COWBOYS!! If football is your thing but think the top division has sold its soul, there are other local teams lower down the football pyramid that need you.

HarvSFC Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Before the season started, I held Ralph in the same bracket as Koeman and Pochettino. However, this season he has had a nightmare. Tonight alone, it was worse than any game under Puel, Pellegrino, or Hughes. His subs, 5-0 down. Lets bring on Championship struggler Jack Stephens and then reduce us to 9 men later on by putting on Armstrong. I don't know what it is, but his decisions just aren't helping him. He has favourites in Fraud-Prowse, Gunn and Vestergaard and they're the players who are going to cost him his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainchris Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Too many people blaming anyone but Ralph. Ralph has been bizarre with his management this season. Poor team selections and strange obsession with picking players totally out of form in favour of plainly better players, tactics have been changing with bemusing regularity, coaching has been plainly NON EXISTENT, Ralph clearly does not grasp the marking theory or the fact that you must close space in the area south of the penalty area - we just don’t. We continually stand off - this is coaching. Ralph is clearly crap without his side kick... Sorry to say he is really lacking and the players obviously know he can’t hack it. There is also a major issue with the lack of a winning mentality at the club. This is very prevalent with the lack of a bullish attitude from top to bottom at the club, the acceptance of mediocrity from all levels of management, directors and coaching staff and actually even some supporters who claim to be better fans if they accept **** poor performance. In this life if you are not a winner you lose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convict Colony Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 I'm going to come out and make an unsubstantiated claim that I think it's the Bertrand/Stephens/McCarthey/Long type players who are the ones causing disharmony. This is based purely on them looking like they'd be the ones complaining and from what I remember Bertrand was having a hard time this season getting the Ralph approach of ",you train well you get to play" approach to picking the team, whereas he preferred the Mark Hughes approach of your Ryan Bertrand, I've heard of you, you will start and be my captain.

CB Fry Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Can we stop talking about Ralph leaving? A complete overreaction. There are a lot of things wrong at this football club but the manager isn’t one of them.Worst performance in our entire history and a complete embarrassment, dropping into the bottom three, two wins all season. Dreadful team selections, poor game management. If he was sacked tomorrow he could hardly complain and I have gone past caring, he's a fu cking fraud. We're likely going down anyway but this guy is not keeping us up. He's the managerial equivalent of Manolo Gabbiadini. An exciting little flurry at the start and bang, we get carried away, he's a cult hero. But people can't let it go and just won't accept that in reality he is below the standard required. Sacked tomorrow and lets get on with the serious business of getting relegated under Garry Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianC Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 To those who are absolving Ralph of any blame or who see him through their rose coloured specs, remember the manager should be getting the best out of his players. He should be exploiting their strengths and coaching them and employing them on the pitch where they will perform to their best. In short, it is his job to improve and manage them. He is failing. Redmond is a shadow of the player last season. Hojberg is a headless chicken, Bednarek is making more cock ups, Valery has made more mistakes, the whole team is making more mistakes. There is no cohesion, no ideas and the players he has have regressed. We are always second to the ball or stand there watching it expecting someone else to get it. We give away possession all the time. We play backwards and sideways and when we get dispossessed we suffer. We hoof it forward, give the opposition back the ball and sit back once more as they attack us. Our defence is absolutely shocking. Bertrand is once again looking like he doesn't give a damn and don't even mention Gunn. The midfield are devoid of inspiration and ideas and we have Danny Ings as the only person who looks likely to score a goal, occasionally and only if he is gifted it. It's the managers job to inspire and improve and it is blindingly obvious that this team of the same players are worse than last year. Who else can be blamed?
