Thomas Frank - Head Coach

[Bishop]

Than last season
It’s so basic
We’re creating nothing that isn’t a set play
Quite scary with the players we have

Our football was fudging dog brick last season. No direction and just lots of passing it around and overly aggressively positioned yet with no penetration. That's not good football.

Way too early to be saying anything about Frank really, he's blooding the youngsters and juggling the Champions League. If he keeps giving the youngsters experience (though to be fair I'd much rather be seeing Gray and Bergvall than Odebert and Tel) I could accept top six for sure. Think people are getting upset with the idea we have to get Top 4, we don't and mostly likely won't.

Frank was not close to being my choice as manager, but he's here and believe he deserves a minimum of two years to show what he can do, as does any manager.

However, as you say this is modern day football and having seen our fans behaviour in the past he has no chance of that. Problem with playing a bland brand of football is that as soon as results turn you have very little to fall back on, and our home supporters are rather unforgiving and not known for their patience.....

Totaly agree with the bolded bit for sure. He was not my choice either but he is here as the manager and i will support him. Anyone who thinks he is not the man after a dozen or so games needs to give their head a wobble. imo

Does anyone think that our players are tired already? We started each half against Villa with energy and high press but that didn’t last long each time before it dropped into tired and laboured play.

How do we get UCL next season if we don’t finish top 4?

Villa have finished 4th and 6th in the last two years, above us on both occasions. Not sure they can currently be classed as a mid-table team.

I was actually more referring to Wolves and the general home record rather than specifically Villa.

They don't need an excuse.
