When the going gets tough 22:07 - Sep 20 with 1868 viewsgtsb1966

anyone worried we won't get going. Early days of course but at what point do we start worrying. It doesn't matter about the past it's about now . KM is on mega money for this division and isn't delivering. Our players must be some of, if not the best, paid players in the league and they're not delivering. This is the toughest time of KM's managerial career so far.

We seem to have lots of unfamiliar but talented players who need confidence.

I think we'll just bob around this season occasionally smashing teams but mostly being really inconsistent.

There has been wholesale change but we've spent a King's ransom. Not sure we have the privilege of huge amounts of patience. Think we'll make a run for the playoffs.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

if we aren't careful the top 2 will be beyond us very soon unless there's a lower points total. 10 points behind Boro already, early but that will be tough to catch up.

So a 5-0 win isn't 'clicking' then?

It was a one off. We need to play against Ben Godfrey every week.

No when you look at the facts.

What facts? That we scored 5 goals more than the opposition?

Yes. But we also won't be up against van Dijk every week. Sheffield United was just the next step in a run where we have been getting better each game. The first time many of our newest signings got a run-out.

It will take us two years to get back up.

Not necessarily a bad thing.

Anything less than automatic promotion would be a poor season.

Conditions were awful today, but the manager needs to adapt. There were lots of poor conditions throughout the leagues today. Same for all Sides. We were poor.

Agreed, and I suspect the hierarchy feel the same way.

I think it’s fair to say at the moment until we put a run of form together it’s an outlier. We can’t get too far behind and today was very nearly a step back.

We were assured last season that we had plenty of ‘cheat codes’ at this level..

A 30 million quid central defensive partnership with great back-ups, that would flourish when not facing the quality of Haaland, Son, Salah, Bowen and Isak every week…

Attacking players who amassed 90 odd goals in their last season at this level..Hirst, Szmodics, Broadhead, Philogene and Chaplin…plus the ultimate ace in Cajuste.

Well, Greaves and O Shea have been the comedy equivalent of Laurel and Hardy, Wolfie and Burgess have quite understandably jumped ship, along with Broady and Chappers.

Szmodics and Hirst have hit the ground crawling and Cajuste disappears once he’s been kicked a couple of times.

Love Philogene but he can’t carry us up on his own.

Which one will breach parole first?…popcorn at the ready…(What’s App group, Aug ‘25)
Poll: September 2025. Which one?
