What does this even mean?

How would draws and losses help in the long run?

So it has suddenly become acceptable to finish worse than last season? How would that be a long term goal?
Why people want to be spoon-feed every little thing.

We are going to draw and loss games as Amorim drills his style of play into this players. It's going to take a while for the players to get use to their positioning and what to do with or without the ball. Implementing his style of play fully is going to help us in the long run just like Pep and Arteta. If it takes losing and drawing 2 to 4 games to get us dominating like his Sporting side so be it.

At least he made a goal contribution. Ask yourself, as bad as Rashy is if he was the one in the positions Garnacho found himself yesterday are you sure the outcome won't be different?
Trashford is one of the senior experienced players in the team, he should be playing his heart out every game for the team. He is very unserious and his poor performance affects the team more than any mistake Garnacho makes.
Amorin should drop them both and promote either Wheatley, Ibramigov or Chido Obi-Martins, let him kuku risk it with Academic players and 16year olds instead of relying on majorly Bald Fraud deadwoods....

The match I watch yesterday, I can see that the tactics and system is there, we shouldn't be surprised to see some of the underperforming player we are familiar with to ruin the system. E.g rashford, dalot, gernacho,casemiro, zirkzee, eriksen. Even when van nesterooy was here last 3 weeks, we can see this players woeful performance, even though the team was playing a bit of good football. Even if these system start working, this underperforming players will still be creating some gaps.

How can open heart surgery be done without changing players? Which players do you want to change in November?
But you guys said the major problem under ETH was a Coaching problem not necessarily the players and Amorin has said he trusts the players, so let him coach them.

Now If they make him lose his trust which has already started, academy players dey na. cheesy

This is what I am struggling to understand

Do you mean it's okay if we continue to draw games left right and centre as long as there is a "style of play"?
Why are you rushing to jump into conclusion? Why do you think we will always be drawing games left right and center? Why are you angry just after the first game in which most of the players were not even available to train with?

At this point, this is trolling. You have already concluded that we will finish worse than last season because of a draw against Ipswich in November. You're already seeing draws and losses. This is something I expect to see from ellexy, not you o cheesy

The way this "style of play" thing dey go, you are probably a supporter of bottom placed Southampton..afterall they have a distinct style of play grin

I am not angry but disappointed that we escaped defeat vs 18th placed Ipswich town

Like I said, i hope we are able to improve and get results fast

Well ETH did the open heart surgery and changed the core of the team. He sold more than 17 first teams players. McFred the bone of contention then was shipped out, however their replacements are old men in Casemiro and Eriksen who needs to to go too. One can say he was unlucky with injuries too.

However, the key lesson from Ten Hag regime is recruiting the right players is much more important than selling the wrong players else you will just be marking time with no progress.
I agree

This is coming in because you are making it seem like you wouldn't mind losses and draws as long as style of play is obvious - that's the point here!

Getting the team to play a certain way is one, getting the right players to play that certain way is another. The first step is to introduce the style of play, and then identify those that won't fit.

The moment the coach bows to pressure and allow the players dictate how they want to play, especially the set of players we have, he should start packing his load

You don't expect a team that is used to playing anyhow and trying to learn to play a certain way to lose and draw games at first? What do you think will happen to this team if we swap Amorim for Pep today?

Okay

Which style of play did you see yesterday?

Let's start from there

Maybe we are even misunderstanding each other unnecessarily sef cheesy

If the narrative was ah, " I am disappointed we didn't win. Hopefully the manager gets his groove fast enough", we probably wouldn't be having this back and forth...

We escaped defeat at 18th placed Ipswich, yet I am supposed to be celebrating "style of play"?

You ask yourself, the Pep at Barca na same with the one at Bayern and City ?

He has answered your question in the past - please see below

Pep Guardiola:
We don’t have time – you have to win and get results, and convince the players it’s the best way. Results help you to convince them much easier. It’s a process you have to prove every day

Lmaooo you're now the one telling lies. Yes, people complain about the players but blame it on the coach for his tactics or failing to get the best out of them every single time.

Just yesterday, Amorim was wailing about simple decision making from the players. Na observe we dey observe.

Of course I am disappointed we didn't get the three points. Who won't be? But if you understand the work that has to be done, you will have a rethink of your expectations

I recognize but make we dey move on after a while. Whether DDG was the problem or not should not matter after 2-3 seasons. He has left and we should judge Onana based on his good and terrible performances.

Dat water don flow under bridge. Whether it was the right or wrong decision no dey consequential again.
