Tank_Owl2,0 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) If we aren't in the top 3 and within 3 points of the top 2 after 10 games then I agree. He's definitely got to get this team to produce this season or DC needs to pull the trigger. As someone said its not how you start its how you finish, but he's had almost everything he could have wished for to prepare for this season so I don't think he can make excuses (that he might have had last season). Yes theres a bit of bedding in of the back 5 to do but its not as though they have just met, most of them have been training together all pre season. DC wont get rid any sooner than 10 games in.

Tylluan Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) The football might not be entertaining but Tony Mowbray got Blackburn out of this division and then into the Championship top 6 til Diaz got injured. He'd also sort the defending out. If I want entertaining I'll watch Man City. I want Wednesday to win and if it means winning ugly then so be it. In this division, people follow a winning team.

True, re them changing what they were doing. But, isn't that what a manager should try to do, when his team aren't getting their way? People might not like how they played today, and no I'm not saying Danny Cowley is the answer but what he did, was his changes got them something (nearly everything) out of a game that we were absolutely dominating. Personally speaking, aside from not booking one of their players for doing what Windass did to get booked, the ref IMO had a very good first half overall. In the second, it was like he'd realised that he is actually shit and reverted to type. But, his decisions didn't influence the result in terms of free kicks that lead to goals etc..

bricat Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I can see no reason to keep a clown of a manager who was a defender being unable to coach a defence which cannot defend no matter how many people he tries. No game management skills at all. I refuse to acknowledge that there are not better people out there who could work the oracle with these players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Moore isn't a bad manager, but what he does lack is the 5% factor that prevents him becoming a good manager or importantly one that will be successful in gaining auto promotion. With the assembled squad of players then anything less than top 6 is a failure but it needs the things Moore does not possess to transform that to top 2.

He seems OK at getting players in, ok the contract they sign might help in that regard, but I am still not convinced by his player management abilities either.

KrolMong Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 He’s got to show some bravery and swap a system if it’s not working. If a back three isn’t working, go to a back four. What he does ahead of that doesn’t matter, we’ve got the best attacking group in the league. If he signed Wilkes, he could easily go 4-3-3 with Windass and Wilkes either side of Smith/Gregory. When I look at the four defenders we have signed, have any of them played in a back three? I’m guessing not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1banana2banana Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 The plus side of having Moore is that he can attract players and he’s actually done a decent job signing wise once again. The negative side is that I don’t think he’s any good tactically and doesn’t learn from mistakes even when blindingly obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 We have the players for 4-4-2. You could play Johnson and Hunt in front of Palmer and James. You could tap up the loan market for out and out wingers. But you couldn't play Bannan in a midfield two, in this division, or whoever was with him would look like Joey Pelupessy when the other 3 have bombed on and are out of position. You need workhorses as the middle two. Fizz could be Carlton but Baz isn't Shez. We could play 4-3-3 but that would need two runners and a holder in the middle and Bannan isn't either. So we play 3-5-2 to accommodate the playmaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Mowbray is a good shout. He did well for Cov and subsequently for Blackburn, without much money to play with at either. Hes now got the experience that he was lacking when he first got into management. As Ty says, some degree of pragmatism might be necessary in some games, but from my memory of the Blackburn team that he managed they also played some good football. Going back to DM. I dont know if he considers himself as being tactically astute, but if he needs some help he should get it. I don't know if he (DM) misses that support that Paul Williams brought but again get someone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll go to a back four shortly and will alternate that with a back 3 depending on the opposition. The left back position is leaking crosses and Johnson needs pushing further forward to make better use of that wand of a left foot he has. I think he knows this as he intimated the possibility during an interview prior to the start of the season. We've played one game at home and drawn, way too early to be calling for the managers head. Give him a chance and see how he responds. Good to see you back PP. I don't think its really calling for his head more doubts he has the required credentials to get us across the finishing line. Nothing really re-assured me in that respect yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we got into an attacking position, on the wing in their half, we turned and played the sodding thing back to our defenders. And I don't mean for them to switch the point of attack, I mean to start playing 'After you, Claude", until it was time for us to play 'After you, Dingle' again. 😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more that he is good at attracting players, just not very good at getting the best out of them. Hence the DofF role would suit him.

Bellsview Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I’ve wanted him out since Peterborough, since that stupid fucking substitution of Byers a minute before half-time. We can have one or two great results under DM and it brings false hope, in that you finally think he’s got it - but each and every time, as has been proven again today, we fall spectacularly on our arses and show ourselves up tactically. And that’s why I’ve no longer got the patience I once had for DM. He’s a lovely bloke, I like him as a person and everything, but as a manager he’s just not up to the task. We won’t go up automatically with him in charge - we just get found out too much and drop too many points because of it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
