Widdow has legit grievances, I think even Sniff above has basically alluded to that. However I guess the wider issue is that this is how it is going to be with EM in charge so we accept it or demand change (which I imagine would not be well received on this forum!). Personally, I enjoy the drama so I'm good with it, although obviously it would be nice to be slightly more efficient, although then what would we talk about?
One point of context though, I do think criticism is warranted if it is being deflected onto the manager. If Cooper is getting blamed for the unpredictable and someone haphazard nature of the squad then I think it's fair to point that out. So if the team struggles due to not having a left back for example, that's fair game. Likewise, if we get good players in and the squad looks balanced, it's fair game to suggest Coops could do more in that scenario.
