I am probably going to get crucified for this but here goes anyway. Monk was a professional footballer and has managed in the Prem and in this league, so he is not a wet behind the ears dummy and can see the same faults that we do. I think it is about time this squad of players took their fair proportion of the flak going around. We have no backbone, no graft, an inability to adapt, get kicked off the ball far to easily and our heads go down at the first setback. That is not a defence of Monk,s tactics but quite clearly the players are not doing on the pitch what has been agreed on the trainin
By sound of things (from payeros own interview and how wilder reacted) sounds like he still has a chance in pre-season but that's all at moment, needs to get fit and earn his spot, maybe being more tactful also as you mention too
akpom, uche, coulson have all been written off previously in January, so they already had their cards marked as leaving one way or another in the summer, so can see why these are in their own camp
As long as we get the right keeper and the right strikers in before the window closes, then that’s all that matters.
Plus Spence is done and due to be announced early this week according to someone on here isn’t he?
