Marco Silva (Poll)

If you like losing weekends and we lose plenty please vote silva in 19 defeats in 46 is utterly disgusting

I was willing to give him till Christmas, really hard too see how he can turn it round because of his stubbornness though.

Leave him be.

This is a transitional season.

In Marco We Trust

Fair to say I've not been convinced on Silva for a long time - but I'm more concerned with the clubs judgement/ability to replace him.

We missed the boat last season when we had time (after Millwall).

I wouldn't sack him unless there's a top manager with actual credentials willing to come in.

Sounds obvious, but there we go.

All our managers get the top wages. Coupled with the transfer money we generally have and the fabled new stadium I think there is no excuse not being able to attract the top available managers, like Mourinho (regardless of what people say about him) or Allegri.

Lou....this ain’t being turned around.

What you see with this guy is what you get.

I think sticking with the obviously wrong manager does more harm than good. You don’t want a revolving door of managers, but just remember what 3 years of Martinez did to us as a club.

Zonal marking on top of this 4231 or whatever it is he plays is so predictable.
Other Managers read us like a book. Our Manager is our weakness.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Why do we need to save him? We need this break to save our club, not him. Get rid of him is a good start for the club.

I think Moshiri will see the international break as a chance too sit down with Silva and the players too see what's going on (even though we as fans know what the problem is)

 

[Jacob]

His zonal marking set up is clearly non existent...or at best seriously flawed. He hasn't sought to rectify this so is he merely stubborn or simply incapable of doing so ? Either way he has no place here if so.

And how many draws?

I said the end of the season, but this fella's tactics and brand of football is killing me. 62% possession in the first half, so what if you hardly have a bloody shot at goal, we are incredibly boring to watch and hardly ever win. If he were sacked tonight I wouldn't bat an eyelid. Brendan Rodgers, but why would he leave Leicester for us, can't think of a single reason.

Just on to the few who found my comment on Brands being responsible for the manager amusing - yesterday;

But Silva says there is no point the club pursuing a policy of slow and steady growth by buying young players, only to ditch the manager if the bumps in the road get too uncomfortable.

On that point, Silva at least feels he has the support of director of football, Marcel Brands.

“We have to be on the same page. We must be,” said Silva.

“If you ask me if I feel I am with Marcel, then 100 per cent because it doesn’t make sense for a football club to have a project and then change it because we didn’t win the last three games. You cannot do that, it is impossible.”

“We showed last summer that we had a project and I am the manager to handle and work with the players we have. As a football club we know what the project is. And our project cannot change and you cannot be in panic because we lost the last three games.

"That doesn’t make sense. We have to work to improve to learn from the mistakes and after go stronger and work harder for the next game.

"You sign Fabian (Delph) and Alex (Iwobi) because they know the Premier League, but the other players need time to perform and adapt. If they had come early in the pre-season they would have been the solution.

"Unfortunately, they didn’t come and it is up to me to keep working with them and do the best. It is not about finding excuses because I don’t need to find excuses.

"It is the reality and all of you are seeing what has happened. We have quality and the players are working hard. We want to see them winning football matches as fast as we can because after I know we will see them performing at a different level.”

All our managers get the top wages. Coupled with the transfer money we generally have and the fabled new stadium I think there is no excuse not being able to attract the top available managers, like Mourinho (regardless of what people say about him) or Allegri.

Also the question of whether a Director of Football would want a 'headstrong' manager of that type.

He needs to go. The end.

Oh deffo mate. For me today was like the West Ham game under Martinez, where I just said to myself "Nah, he has to go"

Yes and it starts with a big S.
