The Players 10:42 - Apr 9 with 1387 views | builthjack | It really is time they stepped up. Posters on here say that they are good players. I havent seen evidence of that for months, at least 7 or 8 players are not performing at all. They look lazy, cant be bothered, strolling about. Most second balls are won by the opposition, in midfield and attack. It cant be all Cooper. Once a player steps on to the pitch it is up to him to put a good performance in. They are letting us down. | |

The Players on 11:01 - Apr 9 with 1178 views | onehunglow | Strong post builthy The players have played better under Cooper but like many relationships the love has gone . They look utterly bored ,listless and clueless. It is down to the manager to address that | |

The Players on 11:23 - Apr 9 with 1173 views | Catullus | I'll partially agree but I still reckon some of them are burnt out, overplayed, not subbed when they needed to be and that IS Coopers fault. The blame doesn't just lay with one person and to get through this succesfully they all need to pull together BUt Cooper needs to be cleverer with his choices. His refusal to use subs even when things are really bad is causing ever more damage. He has to change his approach. | |

The Players on 12:05 - Apr 9 with 1155 views | A_Fans_Dad | Not only are they burnt out mentally and physically I think they have relaised that Cooper's Game & Tactical Managerial skills are just not there. They believed the original hype, but reality has a way of getting in the way of that. | | | |

Well yes, I think back 25 years, I used to play Saturday and Sunday after heavy nights out and after a full week at work which usually meant 10-15 hours of overtime too, a 60 plus hours, 6 day week. Obviously it was a much poorer standard but our team mates still expected us to put in the effort or we'd get a rollocking AND subbed, probably dropped for the next game too. If that's good enough for local league why should pro's get away with no effort. Even so, the bloke running the team would be expected to make those calls not just stand there looking gormless. | |

I worked with a rugby player who played for Waterloo,who were decent then. He finished nights then kipped on the coach to an away game,then kipped on the way back then came back on duty. | |

Players playing for clubs in Europe, plus Internationals, play 55 - 65 games a season. Ours will play 40 -50 . Maybe Connor 55. No excuse. | |

The Players on 14:42 - Apr 9 with 1076 views | Dr_Parnassus | Correct, all as bad as each other currently. If we had a wallflower as a manager players should still be able to string two passes together. Confidence is low, I understand that. But the manager needs to install confidence into them and the players need to step up and show some courage. If neither can achieve that then it will be a long few weeks. | |

Give Roberts Guehi and Ayew a two week holiday and throw in Brandon Cooper, Ollie Cooper and Cullen if fit. If Freeman is really a footballer then him too. I f the players are determined to be stale then action is required. Swansea have decent schedlue against beach teams. Unfortuanely Preston had a new manager bounce and the same applied to Sheff wednesday. | |

They also have the deep inner belief we will get there, no question. It's never faltered. They believe in the methods, strategy and ongoing tactics to succeed. They have all the tools. Time to replicate last year. They've shown they have it in them and they have the qualities to kick on, Think Clearly Under Pressure and deliver. | |

If they believe, if they truly believe then why are they doing so badly? Belief in itself isn't enough. Some people believe in religion, utterly and totally believe, it'll do them no good come thier death though. Unfaltering belief is no good when the model is failing, it only leads to more failure as the refusla to change takes such a firm grip that it becomes too late to make any change. Lose to Millwall and we could be one more result away from dropping out of the play offs. Last seasons eefort was because we went on a run (with the new formation and tactics) at just the right time, with a big helping hand from Forest. This season the situation is reversed, we have hit a storm and the hand on the tiller has us sideways on to a massive wave. No amount of positivity can change that, omly the hand on the tiller can change direction. | |

The Players on 23:29 - Apr 9 with 887 views | AndyCole | Some folk are clearly still lost at sea. Floundering under the high pressure. This thread is about The Players and their ability to replicate last season's achievements (at a similar juncture) and kick on. The course has been set for some time, the tiller is still pointing us in the right direction, plenty of sustenance on board, the players need to deliver as they did before. This thread, nor where we are right now, isn't about the tiller. It's now about the players riding the wave that's been generated by all the hard work, dedication and talent of the wider team. | |
