Re: Pearson Out !

I must admit I am very worried, I think Pearson is finished here regardless of what happens.
 
Re: Pearson Out !

We are a mid-top second division side. We are currently in the mid-top spot in the second division. Just because some twats have spunked away £30million (or whatever it was) will never alter those two facts.

I wonder if Man City fans had the same attitude at any point?

Exactly I remember when we finished ahead of Chelsea in Division 2 - We've spent money to over achieve our default position...

We can't be over-achieving our default position.

I have no idea where Man City have spent the bulk of their time, I know where City have though.
 
I think Pearson has brought in some excellent young players and has done a lot of good things but he has failed to deal with the obvious deficiencies in central midfield. I find this confusing to say the least. I can think back as far as Crystal Palace at home when it was quite clear that we didn't have the physical edge to our game and we still haven't done anything about it. Perhaps the reason is solely financial and Pearson has had his hands tied but I can't see it myself. A dominant central midfielder and I think we could have been 10 points better off.

You're absolutely right about our central midfield. It's been woefully short all season, with the exception of a short spell when Drinkwater and James were both playing really well. The solution for me has always been to play three in there instead of two. So many times this season when we've been out fought and out numbered, we've been desperate for an extra man in there.

I'd agree with that. Trotter (for example) would have been good four about 10 extra points I'd wager.

Believe me they weren't challenging for The Premiership nor were Chelsea - it was the huge investment that has made them competitive...
Therefore I can't understand it when people say "we are at our level" or words to that effect - we've spent millions so surely we should be better than "our level"...

Only if the millions were wisely spent.
