Worst Squad Since Early 2000s

[Toffeepot]

The manager is the worst performer of them all
I'm suprised they even listen to him at this stage

although the squad is thin on quality, but is this team that much different to Bournemouth and Forest?

A better manager would get more out of this team/squad

Forest have a striker that can score regularly, we don’t. Bournemouth look like they have a good striker now too.

when we had Carlo DCL scored goals

Yeah, you do know we had Digne, Richarlison, James, Iwobi, Gylfi and Gordon in that squad?

when we had Carlo DCL scored goals

He scored for a 3 month period. He was crap again after that.

I actually don’t think our first choice 14 players are that bad tbh. We have a strong starting 11 on paper.

The manager is the biggest issue.

I genuinely believe picking the right players in their strongest positions would have us a lot higher up the league this season.

We're a mid table team. Have been for the best part of a decade. Benitez and Lampard nearly took us down. Dyche an improvement but it's dreadful football to get barely a point a game.

I don't think teams like Brentford and Fulham have more quality, they just have a settled manager and system, like we did with Moyes.

Our best 11, with a competent manager has us playing relatively decent football. I have no doubt about that.

Agreed & I cant help but wonder if this "squad is so bad" finger pointing is set to defend Dyche.

As its actually doing the opposite with me.

We dont have a terrible 11.

I think we have a "settled manager and system".

The problem is that the manager is not using the best players nor tweaking tactically using substitutions.

I dont care if the football is pretty but if we can see certain players are out of position or should be on the pitch, why cant he?

 

[SuperKev91]

Just gonna bring this to the front page again.

Absolutely garbage.

Easily better than 2021/22

Anyone else ready to admit this yet?
