Some people are saying that Rob will be much better when we have more motivated and better players. Unfortunately for me, I don’t see it. Yes, some of the players are clearly not good enough. However the playing style of Rob is poor, I don’t understand what he is trying to achieve. As was said, he thinks we are struggling in the final third. We are awful everywhere.


Managers, if any good, improve players and play a system and style that suits. No idea what Rob is doing.
To be honest though, realise it not good. But sometimes would rather us continue to be utter rubbish rather than scrape a result in the hope that they realise Rob is not good enough.
Surely he has to go at the latest at end of season.

Agreed. Our squad has been poor for years, yet all of the previous managers were able to get a song out of them and surge up the table... Edwards has done neither. Nice guy, but under RE and Fosun, we are going nowhere.

Honestly, Banksy, mate, I think Edwards is too much of a nice guy, and the players take the mic.
Unless he toughens up with players, I think players will keep taking the mic no matter what players we get in.

Apparently, I just read that Rob thought the performance was good last week and we deserved something from the game. I disagree. At home to a team who had not won a game this year, we were already a goal down, had nothing to lose, and we had 2 shots on target. Boring performance when it was important to play well and entertain us, long suffering fans.


Also says he is working on identifying targets for next season, so at least according to him, he is here to stay.
Hope Shi 2 is at least considering making a change, surely they need to be looking for other options, same ? continues, it seems.

The fact that Gary O'Neil and VP in a European Semi Final, VP and Nuno dragging their respective teams to safety, and Lage winning trophies at Benfica last season probably confirm that the managers are not and were not the issue, and it was actually the hierarchy.



Now that Jeff has gone, will Nathan prove to drive the club in a different direction. Or will it be case of same ethos, different driver.
Will Nathan support Rob or will he be removed as he was Jeff Shi's man.

Absolute utter disgrace that we have failed miserably where others have prospered.
All down to Fosun.
Yet, we as fans continue to post, but unlike other fans from other clubs, we do not protest strongly enough.
Not sure if there are any answers anymore.

Thomas Frank is the bloke we need. He will sort it out next season.
