THAT is the main weakness I see. Not recognising we do not have the players for the MH way. (Whatever that may be)
I personally think it is too early to judge MH. His interview yesterday showed weakness, repetative, not being willing to explain then making apologies for not doing so. A wiser manager would cut it short, what is the point of an eight minute stunted rant? Repeating he gets it
Getting it and being able to do something about it and not say why, pointing fingers at an old regime, players. That is going to lose a dressing room. If it hasnt gone already.
When you cannot say what you want to say, better say nothing.
Tactics. He states Udders dont play out from the back, what did he do, try to match? That back three had never played together and it showed. And when it got replaced it showed. So two important points down to MH. The tactics and players have been found out before, but not learned from.
