The arse end of Hangleton
Not sure he was going on a run (he rarely makes those) rather than bring it down and move it on. But yeah control was horrible.

Fab clearly wants one of the two CBs to act as a stopper-CB when they have their pivot in between (or behind) them. Dunk and also Igor (when fit) has struggled with that a bit.

Hove actually
He’s such a crap manager it’s Leicester and he crapped himself. This was a game to see if Wieffer is any good or if Cashin is likely to make it.
Because he hasn’t built any kind of formation:style each game is different from the last.
Southampton and now this shower have looked the most likely team to win in both games.
What are we holding out for with this guy?
No idea

Dead man walking. Bloom hasn't spent £200 million for crap like this.

He is totally clueless!!

Cashin is the most pointless signing we have ever made (or at least since Ali Al Habsi). Huerzler once again shoehorning in other players because he thinks those available are crap. If Huerzler thinks they are rubbish that’s an abject failure by the entire club. Stop buying players that managers don’t want, it hasn’t and never will work.
I would think he was bought as a panic buy to add more 'strength' to the back line , why him ? because he was someone we were aware of from the stats we had built up whilst following him. The fact that he has been written off after 1 game is astounding, the Leicester game was the game he should have played given their position.

The problem we have is the manager is not really the manager is he, the real manager is a financial combo of stats machine/recruitment/Barber who dictate how and when we spend and that might not necessarily focus on producing a winning team rather a sustainable/profitable club.

The 'football' manager is transitory , the system is permanent.

Further, the two processes i.e. producing a top team and producing a profitable club are not mutually exclusive but neither are they going to actually fully map 1:1.
