Senior City players unimpressed with Bulut's training regime...

Re: Senior City players unimpressed with Bulut's training regime...

Under Dave Jones, for example, it was really annoying when we failed because we knew that we really did have a decent bunch of players, Whitts, Chopra, Bothroyd, McPhail, Marshall etc. We knew they were capable of so much more when they underperformed. It’s a bit worrying with this current lot, it’s been said, on here & elsewhere, that there are some decent players on board and they are capable of turning things around if coached & managed more competently.

When have this squad shown any sign over the months that they can turn it on? There isn’t any ‘star’ quality anywhere near the above mentioned. It’s hard to think of any current player that makes be think, ‘When he gets going, we’ll be ok’. And if there was one, one wouldn’t be enough.

To be fair that side was top 6 regularly and probably should have been top 2.

This lot just need to manage 21st. I think we are a bottom 8 squad - how bad I'm not sure. Keep Bulut much longer and we are facing a massive task to stay up though.

From a player's perspective it must be incredibly frustration to playing in a side that is constantly being criticised by supporters and the media alike, compounded by the slow dawning realization that they're not going to create any goalscoring opportunities let along score and beat another team, yet at the same time knowing that they probably could improve results to some degree if only the manager would allow them to play a more positive game. As I said, if they don't sack him, the players will..

Once they're on the pitch he can't stop them. And if they win he won't be saying they're dropped because they didn't plat the way I want. He is just going to take the credit.

Some mature replies. I’ve lost count of the times a defeat is followed by ‘they gave no effort, they don’t give a f*** ‘
