    New signings said to be not good enough

    This is the message from the board. So who is responsible for these signings that are not good enough. Is it the board or the manager

    A lot of them are not even Championship standard Lancaster.
    O`Shea, Ramsay, Amdouni, Foster, Trafford, Al Dakhil and many more were a complete waste of money.They spent around £100m on a downgrade from last season.You asked the important question-who signed them?
    This current squad will not win promotion next year.

    Roy Keane had a real pop at Kompany on SKY Sports.

    I just want to get shut of the clueless clown.

    That's Kompany not Keane.

    .

    been the same wishy-washy dross all season, seems those in charge are content with it, I tolerated about 15 mins and terminated the connection when at around the 83rd min saw the kompany man seated behind his little screen, like an sprog drawing pics on an etch a sketch....and how they can still get 20 thousand to pay to endure that sick-making spectacle is beyond me.

    Well Lancaster,is it the "in house-robot" that is AI!
    I seem to remember when ALK bought the club; this was triumphed as the next big thing.
    Judging by the current crop of players' maybe it was hit with a virus.

    Someone is clearly "having a laugh" if they think we are all that stupid.
    Bad recruitment-tactics-team selection-Keane just about summed it all up on Sky.
    Media "luvvy" and no pragmatism-has the penny finally dropped?

    why do we bring on 3 subs @ 83mins when we are 2:0 down?
    what is that going to do? other than waste time for the opposition. I understand bringing Benson on but that was late on 75th min,
    75 mins playing a left back(and a very bad one) as a winger when last seasons star winger is benched all match.

    I've always thought if you're going to bring subs on give them at least 15 mins to come up to speed.

    We spunked a huge amount of money to replace a goalkeeper who is probably better than our new target for the boo-boys.

    O'Shea is no better than Al-Dakhil or Ekdal but Kompany keeps on playing him even though he's costing us a goal a game.

    Roberts is better than Assignon.

    Benson deserves better.

    Odobert is NOT a number 10.

    Cullen is better than Brownhill.

    Dyche is in a different league to Kompany.

    Alan Pace blames "our poor recruitment".

    WTF?

    Ekdal is better but slow at this level and injury prone - Dakhil is not and had a good run earlier didn’t deliver.

    Roberts is better than Assignon.- no sadly not true I’m afraid - ( he played decent yesterday)

    Benson deserves better. Remains to be seen as in Premiership it more than just 20 min cameo bending goals in top corners.

    Odobert is NOT a number 10. Agreed wide man all day

    Cullen is better than Brownhill. Agreed

    Dyche is in a different league to Kompany.

    Alan Pace blames "our poor recruitment". This was a mistake as public humiliation to players is not the answer

    WTF?
    We have some very decent players in our ranks and some opposite that but what we are allowing to happen is criminal - VK/ club should be addressing the on pitch issues and trying to find a way of staying in games and scoring goals ( from early in the season this is ) not stubbornly keeping doing the same thing hoping it will come right.

    A few have short memories though Dyche did the same for a long time and would be still doing it now if he was here , ignoring the obvious and keep doing the same.

    BIG difference is Dyche was not given £100 million to blow on rubbish.
