Another disappointment for the Fans but I suppose JM will be happy with the way we played and the usual soundbytes will be spouted forth

Thanks for suffering with me Lads

Wonder if we'll have a new gaffer for the next game ?

Cheers High, Lads and Lasses.

Both MB and Jesse play the High pressing game. With a fully fit squad Bielsa is a master at it , Jesse isn't.

We need a manager who can get the best out of the current crop, even if that means all we can do is park the bus and score on counter.

If we cannot beat Fulham at home we deserve to go down.

So in conclusion... if you don't play with a solid recognised midfield but play 3 wingers instead, you lose football matches.
Not difficult really.

You think back to the 6 week wild goose chase around Europe chasing CDK and only having one very very dodgy left back and you really reap what you sow further down the line.

Just feel angry right now. Losing is one thing. It's the way you lose though

Bet Dan James is pissing himself

This 100%

If Marsch goes Orta should absolutely follow him. In no way can he be allowed to have input in next manager if it comes to it. You just know he will though.

FFS that was grim. Really disappointing that you see glimpses that we can hurt teams but overall it really isn't working out.

New manager and some decent winter recruitment please. And play with some width.

Yes I know... it's good isn't it😂
Tbh what is available in the squad and with Foreshaw out indefinitely the options of midfield are Roca Adams and Klich. OK so Adams is injured and that leaves us no other recognised senior midfield player.
We are in serious trouble!

^^^^^

The reality said out loud. I also agree 100%.

Orta out

Kind of disrespectful to Fulham they came to Roland road well organized and played some tidy stuff…didn’t try to time waste entire game either.
Don’t recollect anyone pumping them this season either.
Decent team to watch

I think his position is now untenable. A home loss to Fulham never would have occurred under MB.

I like JM and want his tactics to work but how long can we wait for something to change as we are now in true relegation territory

I’m not sure financially the CNN lib can afford to sack him!

Can afford

The squad is short of a centre forward another central midfield player and a left-back, so no new manager is going to change the fortune of the team all that much.
The difference between the Manchester united kids that did well is that they have been together since they were ten years old playing together. At Leeds, they buy decent young players and expect them to gell in a relatively short time.
Football is a team game and it takes time and money to assemble a team, a squad. At Leeds, they lose team cohesion with this one in one out practice. You generally stabilise the team before you dispense with the existing players. Nothing radical will change till the team stops being run like a small firm of builders.

I didn't listen to the match but let's not be what we all accused Thomas Tuchel of being after the Chelsea game - ungracious in defeat. There's no shame in losing to any team that has got its sh!t together - because they sure as hell have and we haven't.
So what to do about our dire situation? When teams are on a steep decline, as ours is, it's not necessarily down to tactics or team choices - with Marsch, I think the main problem is he's lost credibility with the team and consequently he's lost his power of motivation. Hopefully it's as obvious to Radz and Orta that he needs to go, but is it even in their hands? Will their American partners be willing to lose face - not to mention a shed load of money - in getting rid of their hyped-up fellow countryman? I can only say that, in my humble opinion, if they delay the inevitable, we'll be left with a mountain to climb.

Players not the problem
