AvfcRigo82 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 13 points from our last 12 games (mostly shit opposition) is diabolical. I'm done with this clown and done posting for tonight. Night all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to be hard, but we’ve got to give him time. It wasn’t his team though if you listen to Brentford fans. A manager worth their salt does what they can with what they have available. We are getting worse and Smith has never presided over a rebuild and was clearly a cog in a huge system at Brentford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Just now, bobzy said: It's not an excuse. Out of the starting line ups tonight, I'd have picked majority Brentford players. Konsa, Barbet, Canos, Mokotjo, Sawyers and Watkins for sure - probably Odubajo too and there isn't too much in Maupay (league top scorer, looked lively throughout) and Abraham. I have no idea why you'd have more of that Villa side in a mixed eleven. Funny Smith could do F**** all with those players too when he was there. I don't want him gone just yet, but the change in tatics is not working. A striker with 20 goals given hardly any chances tonight, its not right, gung ho was better. Still sticking to my theory, he's playing conservative football, just trying not to lose. He knows Villa, so he'll know the pressure the fans put on managers when they have a run of loses., they don't last long, an it'll probably hurt him to be sacked, more than any manager that's been here recently. I remember he was brought in here to coach, not to clear out the squad and get all his own in. This could take 3 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 strange how we get our defensive balance almost right and the rest of the team goes to sh*te, I thought Hause looked a bit rusty but did ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did have the 2 best chances of the game though so we should have won though would be undeserved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes and Saf need to get rid in the summer, we look worse every week. Spot on Jim. Smith out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have had a pen. We missed two clear one on ones. Adomah and Hourihane. We could have nicked it, but didn't deserve to. Surprised if he said that.

mykeyb Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Instead of having a system and fitting players sort of into it why cannot he look at the squad and choose a system to get the best out of them. How about 4-4-2 or 3-5-2....try something different because the last 2 months have shown that what we are currently doing is not successful 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we really got so few options in midfield in the whole club? He is the man and your not, that was easy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not true, otherwise we wouldn't have been in for him. I can only assume you've changed your mind on us having a far superior squad, by the way.

He's deluded as well as shit. More alarm bells ringing if he thought that performance was anywhere near acceptable, not liking what I'm seeing at all. Sadly appears that the job is too big for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Fans in horror shock that high press, control based football can’t be played with 30+ non tenchincally gifted players in the last years of their contracts. Grow up. Will take time, not the manager that needs changing at this point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except when he turned Walsall from certain relegation to promotion contenders (and would have almost certainly gone up if he had stayed) on a budget of 0.
