Everything Shocking Bilic

[baggieal]

Bilic will go , but he will probably walk himself
Lots of anger directed at Bilic but he’s been thrown under the bus by our board
£20/23M kitty is a Joke. He expected about £50M
He has persevered with Sawyers as I guess he thought he saw potential in him. But let’s face it who else can he play there. Gallagher was actually under the weather yesterday and Krov is not match fit and has been training alone. So you have field (who did come on) and Harper.
Remember these words of wisdom (paraphrased)
Bilic ( after the QPR Game) We Can’t do a Villa and spend £100M but we won’t do a Norwich and spend nothing … Somewhere in the middle
Jenkins ( After we lost out to villa in the playoffs) We made the mistake of preparing a team ready to play in the premiership when we should have assembled a team that could get us out of the championship in the first place. This was an excuse to sell any player who was or had premiership quality , Rodriguez, Dawson, Rondon and also totally discount Gayle coming back.
Bilic brief was to play attacking football, get the fans back. So don’t bother looking for quality defenders we won’t sanction it.
Jenkins jumped ship, job done for him but Bilic was left with what Jenkins wanted a decent Championship Team that go us promoted ( just).
But Phase 2 promised to Bilic has not been delivered ( unless my some miracle we have the 4 or 5 players needed having medicals)
No don’t get on his back, that’s what the board want, they need a scapegoat .

Don't disagree with most of what you are saying but Bilic picks the team albeit not much quality. Sawyers has been poor since the Blues game but never dropped. Why? I don't think he will be dropped for the Burnley game either!

Krov has been training but how fit does a player need to be? Ivanovic was fit enough for a very good Brentford side but not fit enough for two Premier games - does not make sense! Had Ivanovic come off the bench against Chelsea he could have used his vast experience at keeping Chelsea out. Field is not even an established championship player as he was in and out.

We scraped through to promotion with Brentford blowing it twice but have we really improved? Yes Periera and Diangana are our players but on the other hand they were still part of our championship squad.

Bilic will carry the can but other managers may have been stronger with demands!!! How long have the majority been screaming for a Gayle type replacement? Perhaps Bilic should call the Board's bluff - the need for two quality strikers or I will be looking elsewhere!

I do agree with you Jenkins saw this coming and happily retired. I bet he had a whacking bonus for promotion and in his heart knew we would struggle like hell!

What you reap is what you sow every time - can't see Leeds or Villa struggling as they have plugged their weaknesses and signed some quality players. In fact as much as I hate to say it - Villa and Leeds players have worked their socks off and played some great football!

Did our players work their socks off against a very average Saints? Why not? What other motivation do they need by being in the Premier League - must be nice on 50K a week and not even having to trot on the team bus at the weekend!
