Just not seeing it.

I agree that some of our players need replacing but your list goes way over the top, what i would say is that our starting 11 contains 3 or 4 that wouldn't be in a top teams squad nevermind 11.
It maybe a lot, but they are simply not good enough. There is a reason why we are 15th in league and it's because we have either average or below average players for this league.
 
The squad needs an overall

Goalkeepers and the striking depart is fine even with Cullen for 3rd choice striker.

The players that need to go are:-

Josh Key
Jay Fulton
Melker Widdell
Jisung Eom
Goncalo Franco
Ricardo Santos
Joel Ward
Oliver Cooper
Marko Stamenic
Zeidane Inoussa
Ronald
Interesting thoughts on who needs to go.

The ones I would disagree on is.

Widell
Franco
Stamenic
Inoussa
Eom
Fulton
Ronald (I'm on fence)

We can't keep overhauling the squad every summer though, it needs to be a gradual process.
 
Ronald is a decent squad player who has a role to play in the team.
This is where I'm hot and cold about. I like what he offers, but always seems to have his moments of not getting past players. Yesterday was good example of how he can be positive on the team.
 
Ok so last night I asked for the sensible people on here to give me their opinions on yesterday’s performance.

Not really going to go over the game again but I simply don’t see the levels of improvement that some of you seem to be seeing.

Let’s be honest Vitor didn’t have to nudge the needle that far to improve on Sheehans tenure, the only difference I really see is at its most basic level….effort!!

Still have no idea what the game plan is other than a high energy press or headless chicken football, no overall improvement of quality or the ability to control the game.

I don’t think there’s been a single game including the hapless Wednesday match where we’ve managed to control or exert any authority on our opponents.

Vitor is a likeable guy and will have the opportunity to have a full pre season and some input into recruitment next season so I guess I’ll have to wait to see what he does then.

As for the four points claim that I made I genuinely hope we surpass that amount, not interested in being proven right or wrong that’s for the usual clowns on here.
You can look at the improvement all around the game stats, you can look at the higher attendance since Matos arrived - I guess many people think differently. We are far from challenging promotion but we ate certainly on the right track.

And one more thing: Matos inherited a squad with a limited ability to make changes to. Since Every football manager deserves to be judged based on “his” team, Personally, I would save my judgement to mid November.
