5 from me, he’s got to do something to stop the rot and he seems to be just doing the same things. Gouranga.  |

TBH I can't see what he can do apart from parking the bus and trying to play a counter attack game but we don't even have the defenders to do that. Gouranga. |

How do you rate that.
Jekyll and Hyde performance
Started well, faded badly.
Could have been 8 ended up 2

Another disappointing result but we weren’t that bad, it’s a tough place to go and I wasn’t really expecting anything from today to be honest. He needs to find a way to stop the rot though and preferably soon, but it’s not just up to AN, our strikers need to start finding the net - we have had plenty of possession and chances and we should’ve picked up points in the previous two home games.

Not taking our chances is costing us. We had a few good attempts to get back on level terms which would have changed the game.
In the end I think we tried to force it too much and got cut open far too easily on the counter.
I do think we've been a bit unlucky these last 3 games. Wigan is a big one now.

5 He has inherited a bunch of losers & i cannot see what more he can do.
Its going to take a lot of hardwork to turn this shower of shit into something resembling a half decent side.

He's still trying to do something and agreeing with gawa, this bad run didn't deserve to be as bad as the results say, if AN has the grip we'll pick up momentum again but right now it's like watching a tug of war, the team and M O'N's training ground weak spots vs AN. Desperately want this to go the right way, AN does have the quality but for today, honestly:
4 from me

You're rating the performance of a manager standing on the touch line based on the fact that the club's most talented player can't score an easy chance at 0-1 which may well have completely altered the course of the game?
What a load of crap.

What a load of crap. So we exonerate Alex Neil of all blame then just because Nick Powell missed a header he should have scored? Pretty sure that's not how it works. We lost a game heavily, that we should never have lost heavily. I'd give the manager a big fat fuck all out of 10 for that no matter who he is. |

The thread is, and always has been, a crock of shit. |

Utter embarrassment of a thread, week in, week out. |

Utter embarrassment of a thread, week in, week out. The thing is if we'd have fluked a 1-0 win the manager would have got his defensive line up right, we'd have scored a goal and come away with 3 points and quite rightly would have deserved a higher rating. Today the manager played the same formation and tactics that failed to get a result or a goal in the last 2 games, the only changes he made were enforced, we got stuffed 3-1 against a team that was on a poor run of results and we again looked easy to beat, the subs were made and within minutes Norwich had doubled their lead. If Powell had buried what looked like an easy chance thing might have been a bit different however, if, buts and maybe's don't get results. I get your point that if we fluke a win he gets a 10 and if we're dominant and lose he get a 0, that's just people opinions though and most of the posters on here ignore these extremes. Surely this board is here to stimulate debate and give people the platform to express their opinion, which is what this and similar threads seem to do mostly. You like the rest who choose to contribute have the same opportunity to give your opinion on the managers performance if you wish to. If not please feel free to ignore the thread  Gouranga. |

I think we've generally improved most aspects of our play, the intensity, moving the ball quicker. We certainly try to win games now and give it a go, but sadly errors still come far too often..he did little wrong today with what he had, so really is an odd thread.

6 from me. In our last three games we've been the better side but our defensive frailties, coupled with terrible finishing, is killing us off as a competitive unit. I'd be a damned sight more worried if we weren't creating chances, but we are, more than enough to have won all three.
OS.

So you think we should persist with this "WINNING " formation, when almost all (if not all) our wins have come with a back 4. And the present manager says that we can't play a back 4 even tho' he has won games doing just that.
