My concern is that the club have become obsessed with this playing style that they and the Head Coach won’t sway from it… even if it’s detrimental to the players confidence and results.
Let’s be right.. apart from the odd exception performance levels are in free fall and Maynard doesn’t seem to believe they are - which is where he loses my support. Coming out and saying performance levels have been good is ridiculous. LW is head and shoulders above Maynard. He said it how he sees it. Maynard doesn’t and I believe that’s because he doesn’t have the backing of the squad and is worried that if he calls them out (correctly), then they will down tools completely.
