where are swansea....please remind me...and with a so called worse team.

as for the striker....2 years and they still haven't sorted it.

I would rather be where we are now than go back to watching Sousa's awful football.Truly horrendous to watch.

will you say the same if we stayed in the CCC and they got promotion......we need to grind out a couple of results......win dirty instead of fancy....or maybe just win

Can't honestly see them getting promoted personally.I think alot of posters are being a bit emotional in their posts and let's see what happens at Watford on monday.:red_heart:

nothing emotional here mate.......didn't agree with Sousa's tactics....but feel he wasn't given long enough....never wanted magilton......but even with all that said we still as a club have not rectified the biggest problem....strikers.

At least under sousa we wasn't shipping goals and if i remember rightly never got a total tonking at home.

Did not mean you mate,but some others have been going a bit OTT.Like calling for Magilton's head.

Think the striker problem is out of Magilton's hands and is down to the board not sanctioning a bid for one.

Personally i am enjoying watching the football this season way more than under Sousa.And shipping goals seems to be a price to pay in our attempts to score them.

Could never imagine us scoring 4 or 5 goals ever under Sousa.

with magilton in charge expect at least 2-3 more tonkings......i predicted 4-1 boro before the game....wasn't far out.

correct,we were too hasty getting rid of him

Let's face it..no way were we ever going to be top two material this season (if we got injuries), but (unless we get even more long-term injuries/flavio goes and is not replaced) we should still make the lottery that is the play offs. But we need to strengthen the defence (maybe even Heaton for Cerny?) Gorkss for Hall, Ramage back (if we don't buy a decent right back) etc. If nothing much changes, Madge won't last the season.

I've always been a believer that if you get the defence right then you always have a chance. Back in the 70s/80s when Arsenal were boring they knew this. I think Sousa understood this. Unfortunately sometimes boring football is the way forward, for a club with limited resources. There is no reason to think the current management believe this.

And there is no guarantee that if we do bring in a decent striker/others in Jan that it will work out, teams need time to gell. Now confidence will be dropping like a stone, we HAVE to get back on track: that means at least 3 points from Watford or WBA as a minimum: we really need 4 points. If we have a bad December probably no-one will want to join us anyway (except players of very average ability).

Bad luck with injuries (yet again), lack of investment in the right players, hoping for promotion on the cheap, wasted money on Pellicori....those who thought we would seriously challenge the top two got it wrong. I knew that was not possible with our squad unless we went through the season relatively injury-free.

What next?

A tonking at watford and god knows how many wba will put past our dreadful defence but i shouldn't worry our defence is'nt the problem or so people say 9 goals in 3 ganes is to good is it or is it just me...........
