Only comfort from last night is Forest beat a good Fulham side easily at home but at least we made them look ordinary last Saturday. Not much I know but desperate to find any positives at the moment.

I think people forget that Glasner was supposed to take over at the end of the season but due to Roy's health/poor performances took over earlier, the problem is Johnstone, Guehi, Holding, Richards, Doucoure, Olise, Franca and Rak-Sakyi where not available last night, the players that were available are, mostly, not up to standard and i think no decent formation could be put out with them, i would think Glasner hoped he would start his first game with a new squad of his choosing, as it is only Olise looks like he could be back soon, but don't make Roy's mistake of bring him back to quickly, if he and Eze stay fit for the last six games we will get 2/3 wins, i am confident with Glasner and as robdave2k said, end of September is the time to judge him.

The overall squad is not of sufficient strength in terms of quality and depth and this has been apparent for a while.

When important players, in that already limited squad, are missing through injury IE Johnstone, Guehi, Doucoure, Olise, not forgetting that Eze and Olise's appearances together have been limited, it is little wonder that results are less than impressive.
To my mind, Bournemouth and Nottm Forest our recent opponents have more depth in their squads than us.

I think I read that this is our worst season for injuries for decades. To be honest we had it coming, in the 11 years we have been in the PL we have been quite lucky you can't keep dodging that bullet and this season we haven't. I think the board became complacent about squad depth.

How many seasons did we rely on Wilf to dig us out of trouble but we were fortunate that he never had a serious long term injury if he had I suspect we would have gone down.

This season pretty much all of our key players have had time out the reasons need to be looked at but other teams have also had problems, Newcastle for example.

Anyway I hope this is a wakeup call to the board you can't rely on a couple of key players remaining injury free.

One more point

I'm not sure what that post is trying to achieve Willo? Any manger would be 'pilloried' after the run we've had however the one in situ has only been so for a short period, with unanimous acknowledgement of the state of the squad. A very different scenario to that we saw with Roy.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

What I attempted to articulate is that the discussion has gallivanted down the 'Squad' alley whereas in the era of 'Mr Hodgson' somehow he was the 'Lightning Rod' for criticism even though he was constrained by squad depth as is Glasner at the present time.

Only last night I was whimpering to my dear wife about our squad before the game had commenced.She has heard all of this before !
