Based in the last 2 team selections I can only imagine he’s already had enough and wants to be sacked. 

Fat Sam on speed dial? 

 

Nail on head, cunts got no shame as proven with his recent choices. HowS&B aren’t park bench dossers is staggering.

I honestly think the Sullivan family take it in turns to pick the team and Nuno is handed the team sheet. No sane manager picks those line ups let alone do it twice.

If Nuno's old Staff aint installed by the next game and we lose then big questions will need to be asked of him and the Club why that isn't the case now they are all out of work twiddling their thumbs. If a manager really wants to be here, he'd demand they arrive especially when they are available now. It makes no sense to continue with the current yes men duds. Unless he aint fussed about the sack.

A manager alone is not the problem but you’ve got to think if he picked the midfield we started with at Everton plus Potts and gave Wilson minutes in the last 2 games we might have got something?  

Our last 4 managers, owner and various recruitment and coaching appointments have all prioritised experience, past reputations over speed and athleticism both for team selection and recruitment?  Can someone try to rationalise it by playing devils advocate or something as I cant find any reason, even minor for why ?    I heard Carlton Cole saying it might be to protect Potts, Magassa but that sounds like a wild, desperate defence since Scarles was thrown in and out of position.  

Is it that the senior ( older / slow  ) players like Soucek, Irvine, JWP and Guido showed a better understanding in the gentle training sessions of what Nuno required and previously Potter and Loppy?  

I mean these geezers get paid millions to know better but when every fan is saying start the younger lads with more pace, agility etc then you have to conclude they are all incompetent, fraudsters?  I wonder in Nuno’s case, like Moyes telyimg heavily on Alan Irvine, if his coaches are actually the tactical brains?  

“Sullivan Effect” struck yet again if so because he supposedly insisted on promoting within to avoid the cost of taking on Nuno’s coaching team?  I mean its pennies compared to relegation but the epitomy of why Sullivan and Brady are not fit to be involved in amy aspect of running the club. 

“no more BS”

The only thing we havent tried is dropping kilman. Give macrapanos and todibaked a go at CB.

Who scouted all these fucking duds, Stevie Wonder?

Nobody will be asking for Igor once you’ve watched him play a few games. He’s terrible.

Agreed. Areola has regressed and would get in no other Premier league team. Cant believe we wasted all that dough on that little bloke from Leicester - fucking criminal 

Good point about Fabianski being brave enough to try and come for crosses at set pieces. I'd give him a go. What a sad state of affairs though.

Whatever team selection, the best way to relieve the pressure on the iffy defence would be to set the fucking team up to attack and not do what they’re fucking iffy doing, I’d also put Fab in goal, for two reasons, he’s the calmest keeper we have so might reassure that iffy defence and he looks the most adept at fucking catching the ball from corners (which as sure as eggs are eggs) is what Eddie Howe and Scott Parker are going to tell their teams to play for.
i think we’re already fucked, but these 2 games are more than crucial, stay in touching distance and who knows, get cut off and everyone knows.

Can we really do worse then trying Mav and Igor at the back?

Macropanos was a genuine typo - but it made me laugh so I'll leave it there.

That is about as good as it gets with what's avaliable but for the love of cսnt, please fucking play players in their actual positions they are used to playing in and get some continuity flowing back in to the Team!

For me, he's come in, seen what a shower of shit it is and is looking to get out asap, no professional would put put teams out like that. He's needs fucking off now.
