Why are we talking about a new manager on here ?

[The Bedlington Terrier]

The ridiculous naive summer transfer fiesco and now the manner of our defeats is frightening, this Burnley side is the worst in our Premier league history and can't get worse, but will. The players at VK disposal bar Foster are simply not good enough and only 2 people to blame VK and Pace. Vk for recommending the signings and Pace for not having the football knowledge to say no, something he must surely regret now

About sums up my feeling ballcock. I'm having serious second thoughts about going to Bournemouth on Saturday. My son won't be happy but hey ho!

I think some of you are being far too hasty.VK clearly has a plan with regard to younger players and he needs time.Obviously he hasn't yet
sorted out his best team and we haven't yet seen Obafemi.Please a little patience.

PS Welcome ballcock,nice to see new posters on here.I presume you are a plumber

Headline news! Burnley fan suggests patience and calm...

Been lurking for a while myself but now a contributor, and feel much the same Barrie. It kills me to watch the current performances too, but i cant help thinking back to the comments from Pace during the documentary about not expecting to be promoted immediately. I think theres an underlying 3-5 year plan that may accept we go back down...

I watched the Brentford game in a sports bar in Corralejo T_F and I cannot believe the difference in last season's swagger and this season's shambles.

Watching on the TV and not being sat in the heavens in the Jimmy Mc Upper which is my usual perch I could not differentiate between Tresor, Odobert, Ramsay, Amdouni and Koleosho.

Just my own opinion but none of them are an improvement on Benson, Zaroury or Rodriguez so why buy them other than long-term prospects?

O'Shea, Berge, Delcroix and Massengo have been added to the squad but I see no improvement whatsoever from last season.

I think "Lucky" Alan Pace's luck has now expired.

understand everyone’s comments on here and I think we have brought some players to make up numbers I’d guess , however I ve said this before that Zaroury and Benson aren’t imo anyway made for the premier league - they were very good in the championship and may excel in another league but I can’t see it in this one.

I posted on another thread that I think we’ve bought an awful lot of the same footballer this time around , but are they worse than benson and zaroury I’m not sure - benson just gets injured all the time and when he played looked to me like he couldn’t deal with the pace of the game and only wanted to go one way - hence he was removed sharpish and we ain’t seen him since really - for the argument to stand up Zaroury should really have made it impossible for others to take his place. ( he has the talent - but he’s a forgotten man at the minute.).

Reality is the premier league is a much bigger step up than fans and even VK anticipated ,

The big boys league is a lot tougher than most expected

Just on massengo I’d like to see him as I read decent things about him and he looks a well made lad - if he’s less mobile than Berge we have bought badly.

This is my thinking aswell.They never expected to get promoted and then when we were promoted VK said lets have a bit of fun in the PL as though he would also not be surprised if we were relegated again.A yoyo team-but it is easier said than done.

Kids like Trafford, Koleosho and Odobert are not having any confidence boosters by getting hammered every week. For the life in me I cannot understand what VK is doing.
