While I don't believe TM has lost the dressing room, I do think there is a problem. I'm unsure who is causing the problems. My hunch is it's Rodwell. I noticed him and Mulgrew coming to blows last night after the goal. I don't know if it's someone else alongside him also, but inside the dressing room, all is not well.
I think we have rushed Raya back. He isn't at fault for all the goals, but he is shipping them now. Where he wasn't before.
We are turning into a retirement club for old players. I don't think Bennett, Mulgrew etc etc (So many of the older players) got a new contract at this crucial time of the season. Strange decision?
TM is starting to make baffling decisions like playing Palmer up front on Sat? Made no sense.
What he has to do now TM is earn his crust. It's only 2 games, but if we lost every game between now and Christmas he would be sacked. I'm not saying that will happen. I'm hoping he gets us back on track asap.
Every club in this division will have a sticky patch in the season. What isn't the best idea, is to start panicking.
These are my thoughts well after the last few games, so I'm not knee jerking.
While it's been a great ride under Tony, now is the time to prove your worth. If not, he'll be down the road. Things need changing though. As what's happening right now, isn't working. Spirit, performance, tactics or anything.
Rothwell will start on Sat. Which is way overdue. And Brereton will.
