Why are we talking about a new manager on here ?

[ClaretinBudapest]

I cannot, therefore, see VK being sacked. He fits their vision, is financially astute and is in tune with the business model

He is also a fantastic marketing tool for the club going forward who ticks all the boxes.A PL legend who came from humble migrant beginnings and made it to the top, is well spoken and is loved by the media-the polar opposite of SD.

I will tell you all this VK has brought in numerous players this season so these are his selections and I have to say we have a bunch of clowns and not one takes responsibility on the pitch. They are sloppy and have no pride in their personal performances. So that is why VK needs to go as he has no idea how to deal with premiership opposition. Who takes over I really dont know. VK's entertainment philosophy only entertains our opponents. Pathetic

He does not seem that bothered himself Lancaster judging by his press conferences."I hate to lose” "I dont think about losing” Well you better get used to it this season Vincent!

this years team shares zero comparisions to last years.
we cant attack - 4 shots on target in 180mins
we cant defend - 5 goals conceeded in 180mins
we cant see a style of football/ a work in progress, there are no patterns of play, no possesion retention, we cant pass it out from the back, we dont play direct
we constantly give the ball away, often unforced errors.

we are not improving

VK did not get the Maattson deal done early, instead went shopping and came back empty handed Maattson thought Pfft I am not second best forget it.
VK did not get the Tella deal done
VK did not get the THB deal done

- VK thought he could get better for cheaper.. and this is what we have VK playing his signings no matter how poor they perform eg Trafford / Tressor/ Berge

VK wanted competition for places yet picks his faviotes no matter what

We entered the Prem with 2 worst players in the back 4 and a under 21 keeper, haven't replaced Barnes, when JROD also needs replacing
where were the 20+ goals that tella scored going to come from?
VK spent 100mil on players, not 1 of them has been an improvement.

we no longer can play out from the back, as we dont have dynamic wing backs, we no longer over lap down the wing as we dont have dynamic wingers.
out midfield is not able to compete this level of physicality speed and quality to retain and retrieve as we did last year.
VK spent a fortune on attacking players but we can not retain the ball long enough to get them in the game, we are poor on set pieces, no threat on corners, to slow on the pivot to counter.

Manger has made a list of poor decisions/ gambles.. its not worked. Needs to go before he wastes more money in January on the next intake of YTS lads

Yes we’ve had a poor start, yes we’re not a little bit higher in the table, but a new manager ?!!
What’s going on with this thread ?We’ve only been in the PL five minutes .It’s too easy and far too early to start criticising VK, Far too early. A couple of wins and peoples attitude will soon change. All you need is to have a little patience. Does everyone really think VK doesn’t know what he’s doing ? This time last year, he could walk across the Leeds-Liverpool canal. Nothing comes easy in the Premier League. VK will turn it round. I can’t believe that people on here think that he doesn’t know what he’s doing. He will get us up the table.

I’ll answer now Mal

It’s because we are devoid of shape - heart - passion - tactic - identity - quality

There’s a list for starters

I never thought I’d say that but after watching today and I’ll say again we are absolutely clueless at this level - I can see no progression whatsoever

By that I mean I can accept not being good enough but to play and lose as we did last week and today isn’t acceptable- in fact it’s amateur at best.

That’s why people are suggesting a new manager.

I’m still behind Kompany even after today but we’re running bout of time to address this.

This trip to Bournemouth has set me back a Kings ransom, I will not be repeating it this season.

We met the usual miscreants in Bournemouth yesterday, last night they were mostly calling for VK’s head. A lot of them had been at Brentford last week and had driven over a 1000 miles in a week and were not a happy bunch. Clarets Mad indeed.

True fans? I don't think so.
Try seasons 1980/81 through to 1987/88 when I finally moved up to the north east. I travelled just under 100,000 miles from Uxbridge to Burnley and several away games watching a struggling team playing mainly in the bottom two tiers of English football and fans are maoning about travelling to watch a Premier League team.

They were not moaning about the trips Supersub6, they were moaning about the team selections, performance and ability of certain players and not getting any return on spending small fortunes to go and support their team.

My fuel bill alone over this weekend was close to £100.00, surely we are allowed an opinion?
