@caseysean51 Fully agree on being patient with Wilson. Tough job with big changes.
But I have a broader concern about why the leadership structure has been in turmoil for multiple summers on the bounce. What is causing the repeated instability?
@geordeano@ToonTakeover_@ChronicleNUFC Have we totally forgotten the Ashley era? We now got a club who regularly push up against our financial limits.
Everyone needs to take a breath.
@caseysean51 While I agree there's a lot of work to do, there's been wholesale changes, different manager and a new style. It's going to take a bit of time to bed in.
Also... pre-season.
Personally, I'm not at panic-stations yet.
@caseysean51@davez2010 As a fellow Howe happy clapper, it's ok to admit he got this one wrong. It doesn't help our cause to defend to indefensible.
We write it off and move on.
@caseysean51 Tend to agree, but would be absolutely essential they he gets a full pre-season under Howe. If we can't get it done in July, then we should walk away.
@caseysean51@scratchyduckz@JakeJackmann I've never liked this "X was Ys" pick. It's got to be collective responsibility.
That being said, our overall transfer record has been amazing. No one gets it 100% right.
And given they were blindsided by Isak late on, they were forced into moves they weren't fully set on.
@Im_RobM His off the ball work is below the required level to play in midfield. And lacks the mobility at CF.
Wonderful with the ball at his feet, but is deeply unsuited to the PL.
@CTAMagpie Gordon's movement was exactly what created space for our wingers to put crosses in.
Woltemade hugely lacks mobility, and this is what limits us.
This is why Isak was a unicorn of a footballer. Had all of the above and the ability to arrive at the right time.
@RobDonalds38035@SkySportsPL Sounds like we'll disagree here, but I think he's spot on.
We sustained pressure and controlled pressure so much better in the 2nd half. But final ball and crossing was poor.
