2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Wat Tyler]

Our starting 11 had 5 players who have been relegated from this league with 2 more on the bench, plus the manager. Is it any wonder we are where we are? We are a team of losers and we are living up to it.

Frightening. Says a lot that.

I wanted Silva from the start, genuinely thought he was a quality manager. Unfortunately it Looks terrible at the minute and I can understand the calls for his head.
Everyone keeps asking me “when he’s getting sacked” and I keep saying, “what’s the point”. What is the point in sacking him? We’ve got nothing to play for and we’re not getting relegated.
If it was a different season and looking at our run in, I’d say we are bang in trouble but luckily there’s three worse teams knocking about. I reckon safety will be about 35 points this year.
So in short there’s absolutely no point in sacking him. Players need to take some responsibility and show that they’re good enough to play here. Stumble along to the end of the season and regroup.

There's every point mate because currently I can only see more of this spilling over into next season, and we may well not escape the drop then,I for one have been all for him having the next two windows to mould his own squad, however he should be getting much, much more out of these players, we do not have any identity to how we play other than the fact we are absolute pants.

Give the arm band to a player who goes down at the slightest touch, and never stops whinging, whether he's our best player or not mate, a captain he ain't.

Captain’s have to step up.

You’d expect his behaviour to change with that kind of responsibility.

Bit like Alan Massey in Mike Bassett.

 

[Khalekan]

I’d honestly give it to Richarlison.

• Only guarenteed starter in our squad.
• Best player we have
• Could thrive on the responsibility.

You are on the wind up, you rascal

He'd have to get off the floor first mate!

 

[Mosh-pit]

He'll be gone tomorrow.

Just give th more time mate..

I wish I was, mate.

Captain must be a starter.

If you pick your 1st XI, which player(s) would be in the majority of people’s fully fit, available starting XI? (Ideally, those likely to remain beyond the summer)

Richarlison, Pickford, Digne, Keane are all I could get to. Can’t say I know any of them personally but Rico is the best of a bad bunch.

I’m clutching (who isn’t) but it could get the best out of him

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Which records?

The 74 points?

Winning the F.A.Cup?

Two Semi finals in his worst season here?

World Cup semi final?




(it feels good to be on the side of @davek)

Completely disillusional, anything in the first couple of seasons was down to Moyes inheritance.

Not winning the World Cup with that squad was a disgrace.

Yeah fully agree mate. If at the end of the season he needs to go then brands should do it (it looks increasingly like this will be the case) but I just don’t see the point in doing it now, unless they have a really high quality replacement ready to go.

They won’t be the only ones

Not into this semi final medals disillusional + won a cup but relegated his club the same time myth too.

 

[polish]

Correct.

Time for everyone to buckle up and support the manager and team and ride out a poor patch.

10 losses in 16 games is a poor patch? It's almost half a season. Are you all right?
