It's getting frustrating trying to work out what Poch means every week. A little clarity would be nice.

I think the whole system at our club needs to be looked at again. And maybe possibly Poch has been given too much say in all things. The Youth teams and development seem to have stagnated - which is key to our future. The transfer policy and recruitment has been somewhat lacking - apart from the summer purchases although they again could have been brought in earlier, Ndombele aside.. The scouting is obv an issue, what’s the point having a scout recommend players if the manager has the ‘I ONLY want De Jong’ kind of attitude?.. Poch doesn’t have a great track record with picking players, in fact I’d say Levy has spotted much more successful transfers..If Poch has de-notes himself back to coach, then we should be listening more to the scout, and try a DOF again.

The way we use the loan system and keep the players around the first team simply does not work and has to change immediately

I don't understand this...

Both back in full training, so should be on the bench.

Poch needs a sabbatical. What the fuck is talking about? Alot of players ahead of GLC and Sessegnon? There’s minimal fucking options in the squad! What in the world? He’s become so weird. Jesus. If we lose this weekend, Levy’s gotta put him out of his misery.

Hardly any point in being cute regarding comments regarding transfers.

Everyone knows we'll be rebuilding lol.

So, yeah, a bit odd to say that really.

Come on, you all must have known shit hasn't changed that much when he lets Ballbag write what he wrote which was published yesterday on the BBC, I wouldn't mind but his quotes today even contradict all that hard work put in by Ballbag yesterday.

Moan about squad and the disjointed nature of it with some of those players 'creating' problems - continues to involve them in the first team squad - painful rebuild - we'll stick with the players I was moaning about who were 'creating' problems moving forward ...

On loop.

As for Lo Celso and Sess - might aswell forget them being involved until sometime in November by the sounds of that then.

I reckon he's trying to be clever so that in January it can look like he wanted them to stay but they chose to leave the project, with him saying "if it was up to him" So putting the responsibility onto the players if they leave for the need to sign new players. personally think he's trying to be too clever and should have stuck with the PR safe: 'we're always open to bringing in new players if they improve the squad but we have a great set of players at the squad already'.

Poch: "The most important thing is to be all together and show a strong face to the problems. Talk a lot because the most important thing is that players feel support and trust from the manager. That belief is important. I trust 200 per cent in them."


This to me feels like somebody has had a word about his interviews causing problems and now he's trying to backtrack. I never trust anybody who goes over 100% to be giving an honest reflect.

200% agree with this.
