We must stick with silva as fans

Mate we aren’t good and bar the last 10 games of last season we have had more shocking performances than good ones. Our back line has shipped set peices like no other team I have ever seen for about 70-80% of his time here. We lack fitness , cutting edge and our only attacking play comes through Digne or Coleman, one of which can’t cross a football. We play slow , predicable possession based football and persist with a system that I don’t like but more importantly doesn’t suit our players.
I don't disagree with what you say. But which bit of what I said are you debating?
 
I can't believe this is even a conversation. We play scintillating football at times but we are simply inconsistent. We need a run, for confidence- which will make other teams begin to fear us. The same was true of Howard Kendall's '84 side and Ferguson's early years at United.

Other teams fear is the key - the rs aren't all that great, it's just many if the opposition lose the game in their heads before walking out onto the pitch.

Spot on.
Plus, it’s a project with a structure in place....something we didn’t have with Bobby, Koeman and the Slug. You can’t overhaul an ageing, burgeoning and average squad in 6-12 months, it takes time.
Silva clearly wants to pl any attacking football - isn’t that what we want to watch week in and week out? My gut feeling says he’s the right man currently.
 
Saying we play scintillating football and are inconsistent. We have been consistently bad with a 10 game spell at the arse end of the season being the exception.
In which we played good, very good football. Pretty poor again now. This is what inconsistent means.

But to ditch a manager every time from drops is utter boneheadedness. Just because every team seems to do that now doesn't make it right.
 
I'm not 100% convinced by him, but it is infinitely better than the dirge of later-day Martinez, Koeman and Allardyce. I'm all for giving him the time to sort it out.

The form hasn’t just dropped tho mate , it upped for 10 games last season with nothing to play for. The norm is us shipping easy goals from set plays and creating no chances. We are Consistently bad at defending set peices

I think after today I'm just going to not argue in his defence any more.
