    I know he did mate. My point was why did he not change it at half time on Saturday when it was as clear as day it wasn’t working? Madness.

    Something happened when the players came first week back from COVID Forster arrives to train then five days later has decided he’s not coming .... if your not coming back why turn up for first week of training at your loan club all coincides with Griffiths getting dropped like a hot potato aswell I’m not buying th fitness thing because he started ajeti on bench first week back from being off on holiday in Italy

    Giving it the classic “Christie wasn’t fit” to start.

    Looked far * fitter than anyone when he came on...

    How does he do it? Makes changes, looks better, score goal, subs and kills your momentum.

    True he’s got a cheek to question players body language all stems from manager

    He doesn't know what he's doing. We can all see it and the players know it too.

    He's getting the players and formation all wrong. He's the reason so many players are out of form.

    He needs to go. Please don't drag this out.

    It's a better squad on paper than anything Rodgers had.

    Barring a couple players who you would obviously swap in here and there.

    I cannot get over the fact he brought Ajeti and Laxalt off, bewildering.

    Frustrated that we're running into the same problems over and over again, particularly in big games.

    The team is way too spread out so it's hard to press effectively and stop teams playing through us. We're too frantic and hectic in and out of possession and it just makes us look scrappy and untidy. We're too reliant on tempo and intensity in unsustainable bursts and don't place enough importance on putting our foot on the ball and calming things down at times.

    I'm keen to see what he does over the next few weeks. There were some positives in the second half so let's see what, if anything, he changes for Sunday.

    He says the same * after every game. "I thought we we're good in the first half" * donkey

    Just looks a beaten man, which is sad to see, but this season is too big for sentiments. Either he gets the players playing at their peak again, or he steps aside.

    Not sure what's more confusing, his tactics or his interviews...

    Question is, when will Peter and the board recognise this.

    Lenny might just have lucked in to something 2nd half and if thats the case ill take it as its the first time this season weve looked like a team .
    Same team as played most of the 2nd half lenny dont outsmart yourself and hopefully the confidence will return !!

    A good 20 minutes against an AC Milan team that looked disinterested isn't enough.

    The margins are fine in football, that's why you need to look deeper than results, league tables and points. Look at the performances, the organisation on the pitch.

    We've been consistently poor and we have a competent rival against us now. There's no way we can play this poorly and win the league, we just won't get away with it. The situation is getting worse by the game. The big decision needs to be made before it's too late.
