Convict Colony Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 Lost 4 straight games, were not unlucky in any of them, same mistakes over and over and over again. We now look poor attacking as well, to be honest we look like some bipolar real housewife type a fucking mess, terrible at everything.

I remember when Jaap Stam was doing an awful job at Feyenoord. The fans took to the streets in protest and pretty much started a riot when he returned on the team coach after losing an away game. The message needs to be made clear to the board. Moaning about him on here sadly won't change a thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcaraz was hit and miss last season and the same this. He's a fan darling cos he scored a few goals, but some games he was a like ghost. When he gives the ball away no one highlights it, but he does give it away a fair bit and goes missing defensively. He can play, but I can see why he has been dropped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miltonaggro Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 We are shite, but I genuinely didn’t expect that today. Pure chaos, apathy and capitulation, a heady mix. Wilcox needs to prove he’s part of the solution and not part of the problem, and the new ‘hands on’ Dragan needs to channel his inner Blofeld. Otherwise it’s going to get worse and we could go down.

The longer he has with the team the worse they get. Budget Puel. Bigger issue is sports republic however. Absolutely shocking mismanagement of the club so far. No doub when they sack Martin they'll point to all the decision makers being new this time around / having to learn on the job / made a mistake but will get better... blah blah blah. Fact remains our summer business was shite, our manager is shite, and our ownership group are shite. The decision to switch ABK for Holgate on loan deals is just mental, the one thing we need is a fast and powerful CB to protect us on the counter - we got rid of him (for peanuts) and signed holgate 🤣... Manning isn't good enough. We're dropping players like Armstrong and Alcaraz to start Aribo and smallbone. And Edozie and Sulemana are our best wingers and neither start. It genuinely feels like we're owned by Pompey fans doing everything they can to manager us to the slowest death possible - that is how bad SR and co are. Penny for Alcaraz's thoughts - one of the few players to make genuine and public overtures of loyalty this summer... can't get a game over downes, smallbone, aribo, or fraser. Laughable.
