Evangelos Marinakis And Co

[Uwantlee]

On paper I think Vrentzos and Co signed some good players in the summer and 99% of the members on here agreed at the time.

I really can't put my finger on what has gone wrong but in my opinion it's not fair or correct to put all the blame on EM and Vrentzos.

Freeman has ripped up the Championship in the past, Knockaert has ripped up the Championship in the past, Taylor has ripped up the Championship in the past, Colback should be more than good enough at this level as should Christie. These players don't just become poor players overnight and neither do players who were already here like Lolley, Figs, Ameobi and Grabban etc.

There is more to it than blaming EM and Vrentzos in my view.

Cant put a finger on it.... we added 14 players to a squad that was already too big but a squad that were starting to achieve. Ffs it's not difficult. On paper we signed good players but football is not played on paper. I have not been overly impressed with the signings gs we have made. None of them have stood out so far. In fact freeman has been nothing more than average.

People bang on about the constant change in manager but it works the same with players too. Look at the clubs that do well  they dknt overhaul their squads every year. 3 or 4 players to replace leaving and improve in 1 or 2 areas is how you do it. We have signed 71??? Players since em arrived. You can not build a team like that. Players get to know each other, have a way of playing and we RIP it apart every year. Managers have very little input on signings and end up with over paid average tripe.

You say there is more to blaming em.... I say he is solely responsible as it is his club... he employed everyone within it and it all falls at his door. He should be dealing with the problems but it is becoming clear that he isn't. In fact you could say, especially with the video call to players over the summer, that he could be a part of the issue.... could be. 

Some will argue that the state of the club off the field is good... so what. What use is that if we are going backwards on it. What use is it if there is no strategy or plan when making transfers. We sell 1 decent player and sign 14 average or below average players. Its shite. We are applying policies that work abroad to a team struggling in the championship. We need everyone working within the club to know the English game and that isn't the case.

I will reiterate what I have said before. I dont want em to go or sell I want him to sort the mess out. I want him to provide answers and solutions rather than let people continue in their roles unchallenged. He said he doesnt make promises he delivered...n we that isn't happening either. 

It's time the club communicated with the fans it's time there were people in the club held responsible and explained the running of the club, the strategy and policies. We continually get worse on the pitch and but for half a season on decent results we are no better now than when fawaz left. 

What's the plan here... get relegated... go in to admin due to stupidly high wages?.
