He's dry as a bone. Take him off the washing line.

If I’m honest I was expecting a phat diss track aimed at the players and board like something out of the end of 8 mile. Disappointed here.

 

[Connor]

Heartbreaking to watch.

 

[Efcjake]

They've broken him have they?

 

[Dublin blue 75]

what was the gist of it? heartbreaking how?

 

[eurosrees]

Those absolute shitehawk players should be ashamed of themselves for what they've done to Unsworth, especially Schneiderlin, Mirallas etc.

Next time make some of them come out and speak to the press, bunch of wasters.

 

[PhilEFC]

The poor lad has been left to take all the [Poor language removed] while them cowards in the boardroom and on the pitch get away with it.

 

[dublinbluenose]

Feelings of hatred currently pulsing through my veins for some or most of our current playing staff.

 

[sageyefc]

Absolutely hate some of our players, hope whoever comes in doesn't give anyone a second chance and just bins the players who haven't been prepared to fight

They haven't covered themselves in glory, but then neither has Unsworth who has basically tinkered around the edges with the plate of faecal matter served up by Koeman rather than actually come up with a way of playing that works.

It's clear that Unsworth is out of his depth tactically, but for the players to behave the way they have and let him look like a complete fool is unforgivable, they've hung him out to dry.

 

[Saint Domingo]

He wouldn’t be telling them to duck headers or miss sitters. He’s gotvtsctucal limitations but the players haven’t played for him simple as that. Niasse doesn’t seem to have a problem reaching prem level. None of them seemed to when the fans were baying at them against Watford. As soon as they don’t have to play up though they won’t. New manager needs to sweep the lot of them out.

 

[Yarrgh]

You can hold your head up high David. You've been let down over the last few weeks.

Unfortunately I think this might be the end of his time here.

Been saying that since Martinez 2nd season. He took all the blame when it was clearly the players who weren't performing. Irony being, if he wasn't a nice guy and didn't have the perennial positive outlook on everything and had instead come out and laid into the players, he might have had some support. Instead, he tried to keep it civil and the fans sided with Baines and his snide comments instead.

As I've said in earlier posts, I think it would be a miracle for any manager to come in here and get any lasting improvement with this bunch of players. The Dressing room is rotten to the core. Any new manager needs to come in, bin most of the senior players off, buy some dependable, lead by example types for key positions, and try to utilise the talented young players who while lacking in form and confidence, still give everything.
