The Players

Post by Slurpy » Sat Jan 08, 2022 3:21 pm

Most our squad is useless championship fodder. Old players who cant run anymore and legs have gone. Did you see Lowton try and get his body moving for the equaliser? We have the best manager we've had in our history and we've been shafted by poor ownership of Garlick by failing to bring in youth, pace and leadership.

Something has happened and I suspect its the "connection" between players/coaches. Something has happened. Time for SD to step up and get them playing again-if he cant then a change is inevitable

Problem is when your central defence is out of contract, they drop 10% in performance. And it’s showing every game. Tarks should not even make the match day squad.

Remember the first half season when lots of the squad were out of contract.
We just about survived and then had a great season.

For me that’s bad management, not SD fault just as it wasn’t last time.

100% agree, why on earth tarkowski is still in the starting 11 is absolutely beyond me.

We've been let down big time by previous ownership. We had such potential when we reached Europe but our squad has only gone backwards since.

With the added result of today it doesn’t help when you’re trying to encourage players to come and join us.

Fair do's . He did bring in Pace for about £180m!

Don't think it's anything to do with Garlick.
If Dyche had his own way, we would still have Jeff Hendrick in midfield and Ashley Young as right back.

Although they are aging I'm not having its just age that has caught up with some of them.
That today was hard to watch,a "group" not playing as a team, or dare I say it they are not playing for the manager anymore.
Self respect of their own performance has gone.

This is a problem not of age but possibly the contracts and uncertainty among the squad, but these are a group of good eggs, good personalities, honest pros etc that we have heard over the years from dyche re recruitment.
To me it seems they are not playing for him and the only explanation is they are fed up of the same old tactics, work load, training, same things go stale... I feel for some of the player ( in a sporting sense only)
