Perhaps actually others should back off with knocking Croydonlad all the time - we all had some pretty radical view about the game when we were schoolboys ourselves, didn't we?

Not only the tactics / formation etc that are a concern. FDB appeared to have completely underestimated the task for our first game of the season and put a couple of inexperienced and untried kids in at centre back one of whom played terribly. We were absolutely all over the place defensively particulary in the air. The margins are fine and it's disconcerting that he decided to gamble in such a basic way. Things improved a bit at Liverpool when he brought in Tomkins and the wide players were deeper but the sight of our goalkeeper being forced to dribble around Ipswich's centre forward the other night didn't do much to convince that he's changed his approach. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

How quickly things change on HOL. It's rather like 1984 with it's constant rewriting of history. It was only a few short weeks ago that everyone was excited that we had brought in a young but experienced Dutch international defender

From what I have seen Kai Kai and Loliko are too lightweight for the first team yet. We don't seem to get the quality of youngster required, the Man Utd end of season game their youngster won at a canter.

Nor would I describe him as experienced.

Parish has made some poor decisions recently, but at least there is still time to repair this mess. FDB and his awful experiment must go NOW.

If playing championship football is your idea of coming good, then let's continue with heads in the sand and convince ourselves FDB has it all under control. The team looks clueless under his system. Change the system and/or change the manager.
