But the likes of Hutton, Lescott and Bacuna really do not 'have' to play, these are conscious decisions made by Remi Garde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since that day she's never watched football again and I'm stuck in the garage watching or on my tod at VP when I'm "lucky" enough to go to a game. I'm not even bothering to try with her until we look capable of winning games again! Quite envy you and your garage isolation for games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Rock and a hard place for Garde I think. I get the feeling he'd love to drop a handful of players but has to weigh that up against which set of players are most likely to fluke a result. I'm annoyed too, but it's probably maybe just about the logical decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we've just lost 6-0 in the worst home loss in decades. And we make 1 change? That's disgraceful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Last time I remember the staff having two weeks to work with the 'players' I seem to remember we got thrashed against Everton. Hope there is a better reaction today. Most of the team belongs in League One. Not that I particularly rate him, but what's wrong with Sanchez? He's been out for a while now.

Garde is apparently lacking in imagination, or just any sort of clue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't really afford to at the moment, and has to hope these players can turn it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he needs to make a statement, he's the manager. What message does this send out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted February 27, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted February 27, 2016 Maybe Garde is trying to speed up relegation so he can be offski for a nice early summer hol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 every week i have this mental battle where I try and convince myself not to watch and then I give in, on the off chance something might change. It rarely ever does. I switched the Liverpool game off after the second goal, you know as soon as we concede we will lose with the current team and injuries, there is no-one who can turn anything around. Hoping for a fluke set piece before the inevitable defensive screw up, is painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lescott playing may stick in the craw but I don't think dropping him or creating more chaos does us much good. For the record I personally don't think it'd have made much of a difference to todays impending defeat, but I wouldn't expect our manager to think like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
