I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |

Once they start peddling it’s the players not the manager line the conversation is null and void for me. As the poor performances stack up their argument becomes less and less coherent. Yes we can accept the players are in the twilight of their careers, that also means there’s a bell of a lot of experience in that team and they should not be producing these performances. For me the players are not playing for him any longer. Perhaps the drab, outdated football has got to the players now too.

I'm glad Roy is coming out and saying the players aren't good enough or they've not shrugged off the one man team tag. It means cracks are starting which will open the door to his exit. The reason we arent playing well is down to his tactics of 4-bore-2 that doesn't suit us and his resilience to playing people like dann and luka who aren't better than the bench.

McArthur, Cahill, and Dann are in the twilight of their careers. Only one was on the pitch yesterday. Burnley had an older average age.

The only difficulty with Roy going at the end of the season is that we are going to be in transition. A couple of wins will see us safe so we could reasonably bring someone in to oversee this at an early stages of us bringing in Mateta, Reidwald, Eze as a greater focal points for the team. We clearly need to decide who will stay and I am concerned that some players ability will not be best shown by Roy’s tactics.

The club will obviously not be motivated to sack Roy at this juncture of his career. A similar performance against Brighton or heavy defeat I think he’s in the firing line. I’m dreading the Brighton game. The 14 point cushion that’s been mentioned would be ideal timing for a new manager to come in, acclimatise, asses the players and settle into the club before the summer. This summer is massive for us. Many of the players we are saying we may just renew may not want to stay.

I don't understand people saying 4-4-2 is boring and that he insists on playing it.

Something has gone very badly wrong, that’s so obvious , but this set of players, has to be in question every bit as much as the management.
