That defeat is down to the team he put out 90% of the energy and pace was sitting on the bench it's ok to rest players but he needs to consider the opposition first today Wednesday's team would have won today hopefully hKe learns from this defeat also Kone should not even be considered to be on the bench until he gets himself fit at present he is a liability |  | | |  |

I'm starting to miss the Adel and new stadium threads. |

I'm always less involved on this MB after a loss and it's due to threads like this. We're 3rd in the table, have lost one in 5 to the likely champions (1-0, 2 inches from 1-1), and now it's open season on the manager and Kone.
Absolutely bonkers. |
It's really tiresome. Even after the wins there's been loads of complaining about how we won 2-1 but should have won 4-1, how the opposition weren't any good anyway so it's not like it really counts, stuff like that. The Cardiff match thread was incandescent at half time. People who'd be blowing out their arse after two minutes of Championship football insisting that elite athletes coming back from serious injuries shouldn't need their fitness managing because in 1982 blokes who played games at a slower pace with bigger breaks between matches didn't have to. A timely reminder in the match report after the Boro game that Mick Beale insisted on playing his best players to "get this thing going" and ruined Chris Willock's career as a consequence, which is apparently what some people on here think we should be doing as a matter of course because otherwise Julien has personally betrayed every fan.
For my money we have the best and most exciting squad we've had in years, they all look well up for it, we've stuck 10pts on the board already which is promotion form. Every team in football is going to lose games they could have drawn or draw games they could have won - Hull are currently in the PL after losing 15 games last season! Every loss cannot be an indictment of the club, the team, the manager, especially tight games against very good teams like Boro with a squad worth about twice what ours is. | | | |

I reckon CW's agent also helped to ruin CW's career
Not sure the move to Cardiff was the best thing he could have done...
But I do agree, the days of starting the same players week in week out have gone, such is the demand of modern football that these players cannot cope with it.
I wonder how Beale did it though? He managed to get "characters" like Laird, Roberts and Richards to want to go out and play football, every game!
We soon found out how strong they were when he left and Critchley dared to speak a few truths, then the dodgy niggles started to appear and the players needed a rest etc... |  | | |

This is the same Declan Rice who was a shadow of the player he should have been in the world cup because he had been overplayed? |  | | |

Well Haaland was well knackered towards the ends of
both the Brazil and especially the England games. | | | |

And that's partly why they cost more on their own than our entire squad does collectively. Nobody is saying it's impossible for any player to play a lot of minutes, but highly skilled players who can also do 90 minutes every game of the season are more expensive for a reason. | | | |

and he has been talking about how the World Cup will affect him this season both physically and mentally.
Declan Rice also had an illness that affectively put him out of the Argentina game. [Post edited 8 Sep 19:19]

Not a pop at you but it is often forgotten that Beale lost four of the last five games that he was here. I think the other one was a draw. So 1 point from 15. | | | |

I love Burrell and Madsen as much as the next man but I'm not sure the comparisons to Haaland and Rice are warranted just yet...
As others have mentioned, there's a reason why they're worth 10's of millions of pounds. | | | |

I see that Middlesbrough made 8 changes last night from the side that started against us on Saturday.
I somehow doubt that their supporters will be going mad at them for that decision. | | | |

I think there will be a lot of unhappy fans on here at 11:30am Saturday when the team is announced for West Brom.
Just listening to Julien post match last night basically saying that the preperation for the game will be seeing who is fit and available on Friday morning before heading off in the afternoon. Highly unlikely to see Madsen or Kamara I would have thought.
Charlton got a point up there a week ago, I think I would take that now. [Post edited 10 Sep 3:31]
