Washington has been dropped.
Why do i need to mention a player that dont start?
Sylla missed a sitter my dead nan would of converted and cost us three points.
I aint backing any of them, we need a real striker.
Sun papers reporting Jackett is going to take over and Ollies being sacked by the way.

Sylla is our top striker. Need to back him as he is our only hope out of the 4 strikers that we have.
The other 2 I've more or less given up on. Mackie should only really be utilised as a squad player. And Conor has had so many chances to impress but very rarely does. Could really do with a striker in January, but to come up with somebody who can make a difference on our current budget would require something quite miraculous from Ollie or our scouts.
Personally I'd give Eze a go. Has been scoring a few and earning rave reviews down at Wycombe. Gotta be an improvement on Mackie, however you look at it!

What I'm saying is that if you look at Ollie's record across the last decade, it's almost identical to his record with us this last year. Just like Alan Shearer averaged about 25 goals a season across his career, Ollie averages about a win every 3 games. In other words, it's unrealistic to expect things to improve. What we are getting is exactly as Ollie has delivered across the last decade!

Just misses a striker.
Syllas okay but no way he should of missed that sitter from two yards out that would of got us all the points.
We would be around the the top six with someone who takes the chance we create.

Originally posted by Pinkie View PostOk so how do you explain his two promotions on that basis? lol
He did well at Blackpool, that's plain to see. He went on an amazing run with Palace in their promotion season, but I know a few Palace fans and they don't speak that highly of him.
The point that I'm making is that if you hire a manager who has an average win ratio of 30% across the last decade, don't be surprised when he only wins 1 game out of 3.

Well he picks the strikers pinks not me. If strikers keep missing chances don’t select them but he keeps selecting Mackie who missed two sitters yesterday so for me that managers fault. For three months people have been saying Sylla only finisher at club he starts and he scored. It’s not rocket science it’s actually quite simple but the boss is making it hard via his choices

Originally posted by Tarbie View PostHaven't once said sack Ollie mate. I never wanted him here in the first place, but now he's here and got his team and squad in place, we might as well stick with him.
I just don't see any point in posting BS about us "being a work in progress" or needing to give the manager time. Have a look at Ollie's record, particularly in the last 10 years. His win ratio is typically around 30%, he's typically been disliked by the majority of fans at whatever club he's been at, and his teams have been prone to going on good runs, often followed by terrible runs.
What I'm saying is that what we are seeing is just what you can expect when you hire Ollie. This situation is unlikely to drastically improve or worsen, aside from runs of good and bad form. There is zero point kidding ourselves that there is some kind of master plan, and we are working towards domination of this league, cos it simply isn't true. What we are seeing now is exactly what we should have expected when Ollie was given the job. I knew that, as did a few others on here, hence we were vocal about it being a poor appointment.

Originally posted by Kevin Mcleod View PostI dont even class Mackie as a striker.
Foward pressing midfielder or winger who moves across the whole front line.
If hes actually a striker we really will lose the mini league.

Originally posted by Pinkie View PostI agree kev and the reason why we are work in progress as we are a few players short of what we want to be, & i agree with everyone wanting wheeler and say sylla or smith upfront, think ollie should see this after soo many missed chances, but our midfields missing chances aswell yet playing well and dominating games!
