We’ve been saying our side is unbalanced for years. We’ve been crying out for a left winger, a left back and a defensive midfielder for since Santini got the job. Yet we seem to buy a raft of attacking midfielders of varying quality.
Instead of addressing the areas we need to improve we sack the manager if he doesn’t do as well as expected. But what chance have our previous bosses had when they have to fit square pegs into round holes. Martin Jol has moved on and doing well with Hamburg who are two points off the top in the Bundesliga. Ramos is fairing ok at, let’s face it, a bigger club at Real Madrid.
Yet they failed at Spurs.
The public slating of the players and the transfer policy could be the kick up the arse our club needs. Maybe now we can build a balanced side with the right mix of flair and strength with players operating in their proper positions.
It’s not ‘Arry’s fault, these problems have been apparent for longer than a few months. The blame lies at the feet of the people who chose the players. Rightly Comolli paid with his job, Redknapp doesn’t deserve to.
