mckenna needs to study glasner 06:51 - Oct 24 with 1311 viewskeanekipper

have a look at how he turned palace around last season after a poor start, they came down here and dulled out a win, we need a run of them put the ego football away and make us solid.

Their recruitment/academy is much better. Town have signed some average players and overpaid for some of them. Tactically Glasner is better than KM and they sign players who suit his tactics.

Eze, Wharton, Sarr, Guehi are all good players who have made an impact in the PL and have been a big part of their success. Dougie Freedman was responsible for finding some of those and for hiring Glasner.

Town have developed greatly since Gamechanger 20 took over but the recruitment dept hasn’t kept up. Ashton has said so himself. I’m not sure if our recruitment team and manager are fully aligned.

Having watched the Palace game last night I think they must share notes - it was like a carbon copy of the Charlton game.

We can't play in the Championship the way Palace play in the Prem. They are happy to sit off and not have loads of the ball and to break at pace and they are very well set to do that. That's a lot harder to do when the opposition aren't really trying to attack you.

Palace's problems at the start last season were caused purely by the fact they had so many injuries. Glasner decided he would go all MM and sick 11 behind the ball and bore out 0-0 results until he got his injured players back. When they played us they had started to get a few back.

it was more putting away how they trying to go about things, getting some results and build up again. we need to tighten up our in possession defense. so it wont be like for like but he has to tweak things.

we all love mckenna and think he is a very good manager, now is the time very good managers prove themselves in situations like these and i dont think very good managers just keep doing the same things. im hoping for a 433 drop the 10 as neither of the current occupiers of the spot are offering much. azor cajuste taylor midfield

He could do a lot worse than make us hard to play through. Dulling out a win or three would steady the ship.

Our biggest issues this season have been individual errors and people underperforming in some key areas of the pitch. I'm not sure how changing formation is likely to help that, indeed changing system when we're already lacking a bit of cohesion isn't going to help with that issue either. We lost against Charlton because of profligate finishing and rank bad defending from O'Shea for the opener and from half the team for the other two goals. A change of system doesn't stop those errors from happening.

We have pace in the team but that's not much use when teams are sitting in on the edge of their own 18 yard box.

McKenna is at a cross roads and has a difficult decision to make.

He has to choose between continuing with his current philosophy or accept that promotion is the priority and adapt accordingly.

In my view he cannot recreate the togetherness of two years ago but will stick with his style for the time being.

Coming round to the view we are going to need to bring in, in January transfer window, a player who will have the same impact as Marcus Stewart. A tall order.

The irony with this being McKenna was close to going to Palace before turning them down and Glasner being appointed.

I saw Palace beat Liverpool at Wembley in the Community Shield and was at Selhurst Park for the 3-3 thriller against Bournemouth when we had a spare Sat last weekend. Mateta had 11 shots and an xG of 3.48 on his own. Semenyo was an absolute beast on the wing for Bournemouth. The physicality and athleticism of players recruited from overseas for the Prem is where we went wrong last season. Matusiwa is a step in the right direction but we've still got loads of lightweights

easier said than done. They were a group of strong athletes, units almost all of them. We just do not have that profile. Even Matusiwa is small and slow compared to them and he is our main weapon.

They were better physically, technically and MUCH better coached. As were West Ham, and every team we played.

Why don’t you look at that and see what’s obvious.

Glasner is experienced, and elite, maybe world class, he’s won countless trophies before he came to the premier league.., his life and career didn’t start and finish when we saw him.

THAT is the level. World class.

McKenna is maybe two or three levels below that, he always was.

You can win a championship and be light years away from that level.

Of .., and we paid him more than Glasner and almost any world class manager.

Saying ‘be more Glasner’ is like me saying why don’t you go and run 100 metres in 8 seconds …, just do it!?

It’s the same. That’s how far Mckrnna is away from that level, and always was, it’s just some nodding dogs. And Mark Ashton that didn’t see it.

Even McKenna knew…, you don’t spend all summer trying to leverage the most money you can from our club otherwise

If you believe you’re at that level…, you don’t need to!

“Won countless trophies”. One promotion in Austria. And a Europa League with Frankfurt. So, not countless.

Adam Wharton is neither an athlete or unit.

He is one of the best footballers in the league though.
