Nuno will be gone after we play Liverpool and Brighton
No plan B
Two wingers and two fullbacks not getting delivery in but can't see it
Williams made so many mistakes it's unbelievable he keeps picking him
Goalkeeper useless
Now we have ward prowse a winger has to be sacrificed or nuno is toast.

He won’t be…. Unbeaten after 3 games 5 points (should probably be 7) not a bad start at all. Definitely improved on last season. Too many negative nancys about.
Sels useless….? What did he do wrong today?

Need more goals from somewhere. No panic as yet but not sure whos going to take pressure off Wood. Its not Awoniyi at the moment.

The negative posters need to look I'm the barroom mirror Nuno yes had a headache who to bring in but surely that's a good headache to have and that's why he's there, he kept us up and so far unbeaten give him and the new players a chance. well that's my opinion just Jesterimg ???.

DTP I am with you I am afraid, atm. Your point re Williams and Ania negating the need for HO and Elanga. These latter two not heading for the line to centre to Wood but cutting inside, is loosing us chances and therefore matches.
Sanghera cannot be any better than OBrien, yet he stays the other goes. Jota and Sosa have energy, as does Yates. Jota and Yates were all over. Sadly, it was in 90 mins when Jota and Sosa were brought on. Where was Morena?
The style of Nuno play is identical to last season. We were so lucky that 3 teams were poorer than ours. Surely all fans, Big M included, hope for a better season ie a mid table finish. I cannot presently see that happening.
Folks on this site see the issues. We are armchair critics with very little knowledge, only watching players and noting positive and negatives. However, these points are made as we want our team to do well.
Nuno is being given a chance, but with the current second and third teams next away, it is likely we will gain no more points and then Fulham. This season we have a much better and more skillful squad. Let’s hope Nuno sees what we see and didn’t think on Saturday we could win. So therefore, he played a defensive hand. We need a manager who looks forward not backward all the time.

Doc, I think you are dealing with symantec's when you say 3 teams poorer than ours, or is it our team better than theirs?
You can paint it how you want, is the rest of the league poorer than City, yes, what a negative way to view things though, doesn't make everyone else shite.
Not sure what Sels could have done about the goal, he's been pretty solid for us to be fair, if he makes a clanger then Miguel will come in.
Sangare is heads and shoulders better than O'Brien, he hasn't ripped up any trees since leaving us, not sure how he keeps popping up, championship player is all.
We've had a decent start to be fair, I know we have harder games to come but jeez, we haven't been played off the park or beat yet.

I don't think nuno's job is in any danger currently. He has a better squad than he did last year as he actually got options now. He will get some things right but he will also get things wrong, so I see us finishing 14-15.
We get 3pts from next 3 games would be OK.
For Liverpool would go with a 4-3-2-1 to give us that bit extra in midfield. Get a draw there and would be happy. Brighton and Fulham are both winnable games if get tactics and substitutions right.

Brighton winnable?
Really?
Hope your right and you put a tenner on at what will be at least 4 to 1 odds
There's definitely a good side in our squad as there was last season to, but it's a usual 4 2 3 1
But for me more like 4 2 2 1 1
To much space between players and MGW doesn't get beyond wood to be the number ten most the time that will score
MGW has all the talent but doesn't score enough for me.

We play the other 19 teams twice. When we play them is largely irrelevant, although playing the perceived top 6 on the bounce could effect morale. Judging a season after 3-4 games seems a little nonsensical. If the doomers are still calling for Nuno's head in Dec, then let's see who's available. Maranakis is keen to tap into the Brazilian market, using Mendes. Having a Portuguese coach seems a logical step to me. In the words of Lance Corporal Jack Jones 'Don't Panic' - yet. FTID.

It's all academic at the moment, if he wins the next three games. He will be the best manager since the bloke arranging the animals on Noah's Ark????.

DTP would you like to reconsider your post in the light of a truly wonderful tactical masterclass by Nuno and his team at Anfield?
