What worries me is that he apparently doesn't know what's going wrong on the pitch, or why it's happening. When asked how we need to change, he just says that we need to be better. He also bemoans our lack of attacking options, despite him bringing in two forwards in January, none of which were the target man that we needed.
Then he mentions our inability to defend set pieces and crosses into the box, despite him bringing in a goalkeeper and two centre-backs with zero league experience.
Every other team we play seems to have a plan. They seem to have a system that works, that all the players seem to understand, and that fits the personnel they have. We, on the other hand, look completely devoid of a coherent plan or style of football. The things we do don't suit the players have. We fail, time and again, to play to the strengths of our players. Enzio was brought in as a flying winger, yet we almost never see him bombing down the line with the ball at his feet. Gomis was brought in as a speedy striker, but we spend all game launching the ball in the air.
He has talked many times about winning both boxes, yet we never do. The last few games we've been second to everything. We show less desire and commitment than the opposition, despite the fact we're fighting for our lives.
He needs to change something for the Carlisle game, because that starting 11 playing that way will get absolutely mauled up there. But I get the feeling he's totally out of ideas.
