Let's be in no illusion, we are now in a relagation battle. Away to Newcastle without Urgarte and Bruno, then the scousers away too. We are right in it. All the changes and some substitutions are getting concerning. His stubbornness to stick with the 3-4-3, when not having the right players or losing games is definitely a worry. I really hope lm wrong, a few games back l really thought we would get top four. How far away that is now.

Two tough fixtures coming up. Trouble is do we really want him to start experimenting with a new formation if he’s never used anything else?

We are at home to Newcastle but that probably won’t help us tbf… I get your point but just to counter and say we all wanted a manger with a plan and a philosophy and one that wouldn’t abandon his principles to suit our crap players. Also we wanted a manger that wouldn’t just cave to the players demands. It’s dire and I agree that we don’t have the players to suit his style but eth abandoned his philosophy early on do we really want Amorim to do the same?!

Him sticking to his system isn’t the issue these below average players are.
He has said himself we can either try something new and suffer or play to suit and then be back in this situation next year
I’m glad we are playing so poor neciase these players cannot hide behind another manager getting the sack
Bruno is Suppost to be our captain and straight from the restart he does that some captain he is.

You play your system and either the players are coached to fit it and adapt or they are simply not good enough To coach and moved on for players who are

These players can’t play any system competently. They all need to go and let Amorim bring in his own choices. It will take time but there’s no alternative.

This season was a write off as soon as ETH was still here in the summer. Whilst it's painful to watch, at least RA is getting to see what he has and what he needs and time before the summer to plan for it. If he'd have come in the summer he'd have not had the experience working with the players this early.

Clearly the players aren't good enough, and Bruno is not captain material. What one wants from a captain is someone who inspires. Anger is better than whiny. Scoring goals when you have a good chance, not getting red carded with stupid fouls. Instead of inspiring he demoralizes. He may be a decent footballer but he is not a leader.

You will see a different side now Bruno is not in the team but those championship level forwards don’t deliver.

Think Amad has shown he's a bit more than Championship level.
I like Hojlund but it's a big step up for him and he needs consistency of reliability which will hopefully come with ages.
