Bring in someone a bit more hardline than that cliche spouting wideboy. Enough is enough.

Unless he and the club are bringing players in to fix the problems in the next few days then he can go otherwise, defenders in midfield, midfielders in defence...

C’mon now. None of this is his fault. Needs at least 3 transfer windows to get in his own players and ideas across. We can’t keep sacking managers.

[Johnny_Leith]

Dead man walking. The season, performances and results have led us to a point where, barring a miracle run of form where we knock out Hearts and win 3/4 on the bounce, it's only a matter of time until he gets the sack. It feels like the fans have turned against him.

I feel for him, the squad isn't anywhere near good enough and the hierarchy at the club seems to not have a clue. Is he a good manager, who knows really, I doubt any manager could get these guys concentrated and organised for 90 minutes.

[neil7908]

Pishing the breeks again!

Were you at the game today? Were you happy with the performance?

[Unseen work]

Don’t think we can sack him right now.

Since coming back we’ve lost to the top 3 teams in the league and then beat Livi convincingly 4-0, beat Motherwell 3-2 and now drew to United who are actually a decent side and improved massively.

We’re so far behind the top 3 that we need to take points off those around us and he’s done that.

It’s not good though, nowhere near it.

We need players in immediately

Mitchell not in the squad today so I imagine he’s leaving imminently

[Hibernia&Alba]

The line up today was indefensible.


Correct. We snatched a point at the death, but I have lost faith in the manager to get it right going forward. I felt the same after we won our previous game, too. It feels like it's just a matter time now. I think the derby fiasco finished me.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

If Mitchell’s got room in his car he can take a few others with him. Another shyster not fit to wear the shirt. Literally.

C'mon now PH, we're all feeling very confident about our chances in the cup and the prospects of qualifying for Europe. The team is a on a great run, playing a cracking brand of football and our squad is rippling with talented players fiercely competing for first team places. Our defence is watertight, we're going to hold on to our best player and sign more first team starters in this window.

*pauses to draw on crack pipe*

It's a sell out crowd every home match, the owner and manager have the fans right behind the team, Easter Road is a fortress, the club is expecting record season ticket sales next season, all the right players are locked into long term contracts and we have our city rivals strongly under the thumb.

We've turned that into an art form by attempting to become the kind of club that buys failure, which is innovative to say the least.

[Since452]

That late goal papered over the cracks a bit. Even still, a draw at home against Dundee United isn't good enough. I'm torn between accepting the manager needs time and being pissed off at performances like that. I've been a supporter of LJ from the start but right now I wouldn't be arsed if he stays or goes. I'll probably think differently in the cold light of day but that was ***** today.

McKirdy made a decent contribution when he came on today. Josh Campbell did well wide right - was that one of your digs about a midfielder playing in defence? Despite McKirdy’s on the ball performance his card is marked by you because he dared to grin? Not sure what you mean by a more unlikeable Hibs. I’ve seen plenty more Hibs teams in the past 40 years that were more unlikeable to watch than the current team.

It is indefensible playing Campbell in defence; he is a much better midfielder and was involved in the equaliser as a midfielder about a minute after the boos started when he made a mistake as a RB. The manager gave DU the initiative with that team and invited them to attack us

We are utterly pi5h. We are showing no signs of improvement. The manager appears to pick the team using a tombola. The owners seem to think there's no urgent need for new signings. The players are largely phoning in their performances. A man who was party to a large chunk of signings and who talked about how we would see his style after the first tranche of games has signally failed to have us playing the high paced and high press game that he said this squad was capable of. We are going absolutely nowhere in a hurry with this manager, squad and executive team.

LJ changed the shape of the team several times today - which was good to see. As you’ve highlighted, Campbell never played the full game at right back. He’s a versatile boy and I don’t think Fish looks great there, Miller is on the way back, Megwa still untried. So who else at right back?

I think it's transparently obvious that their tactic at this point is to take the path of least expenditure. In terms of investing any further to save this season they have already written that option off. It is a spectacularly short-sighted judgment which will see us even further away from competing seriously for either 3rd or 4th in the coming seasons as we help to usher Hearts and Aberdeen toward lucrative European money.

They don't trust their manager, they can't trust their own internal recruitment process and they don't know what to do to rectify things in this window or this season in the absence of spending money. Their strategy is therefore to sit tight and hope something, somehow, turns up.

We are going to continue to put in terrible performances, fail to develop the team/squad and yo-yo between awful and barely adequate results for the remainder of this season.

Nisbet is papering over the crack for sure.

You’re using it as an excuse to suit your position. We’ve been creating chances in most of our games this season. Even on the bad run. Crying out for a finisher. Now Nisbet is getting on the end of these chances. That to me is hardly papering over the cracks.

I’d be shocked if the Newcastle Aussie doesn’t score against us at least once. They are no great shakes and should be their for the taking from an average Hibs side.

Unfortunately this is a terrible one.

Unless he was laughing at how bad we are in which case he has my full support 🙃Oh come on Man, you are a good poster on here and I enjoy your posts in amongst the garbage but grinning ffs 🤣

[Scotty Leither]

It is indefensible playing Campbell in defence; he is a much better midfielder and was involved in the equaliser as a midfielder about a minute after the boos started when he made a mistake as a RB. The manager gave DU the initiative with that team and invited them to attack us

Campbell gets unfair stick. I’ve no clue what goes through the manager’s head with selections, but it strikes me he goes with players he can rely on, even to the point of playing them out of position, such as Josh and Ryan.

I’d do the same in his position, as the alternatives Ian Gordon and co have given him are *****.

Nisbet two goals papered over an unconvincing performance and LJs set up of team was bad. Not sure LJ can survive much longer. Results and performances havent been good enough. Yes we drew and won last week but its hardly a turning point.

It’s not a great measure and all have some serious faults including not being able to sort a midfield.

You know we could beat them!

Aye ok then. I admire your optimism. We are pish, pish squad and a clueless pish manager. That’s before we start on the owner and his laddie.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Yes, let's sack yet another manager after 6 months in charge.

Lack of stability at manager is a sure fire way to see us relegated.

There is merit in what you say in relation to constantly sacking managers. On the other hand, do we keep Johnson now because we've sacked so many mangers in the past? Questions need asking of board, regarding why their appointments have been so poor. Our problems don't begin and end with the manager, that's true.

[chippy]

I think it's transparently obvious that their tactic at this point is to take the path of least expenditure. In terms of investing any further to save this season they have already written that option off. It is a spectacularly short-sighted judgment which will see us even further away from competing seriously for either 3rd or 4th in the coming seasons as we help to usher Hearts and Aberdeen toward lucrative European money.

They don't trust their manager, they can't trust their own internal recruitment process and they don't know what to do to rectify things in this window or this season in the absence of spending money. Their strategy is therefore to sit tight and hope something, somehow, turns up.

We are going to continue to put in terrible performances, fail to develop the team/squad and yo-yo between awful and barely adequate results for the remainder of this season.

Yep, if you’re right in your analysis and I’m thinking similarly then they are wanting out.

[Ryan91]

Keep him and actually give the manager time, more than 1 season and certainly more than 6 bloody months.

[RossScott1991]

Useless board
Useless players

We are in a dire state.

Whilst us fans get to continue watching Campbell and Newell as our main midfielders. Yay.

[Stokesy's on fire]

You do realise it's possible to blame more than one person at the same time?

Ta, ta Johnson, the sommelier, Kensall and most of the squad.

I get yi but the root cause of our clubs problems comes from the top. And for what it's worth I don't think he was the correct appointment but I wouldn't trust the Gordon's to hire another manager.

[GreenArmy1875]

Anyone noticed a lack of consistency in substitutions. The Derby Mckirdy starts then doesn't get game time at all against Motherwell. Melkersen doesn't get game time in the Derby but thrown on ahead of Mckirdy in Motherwell. Today Mckirdy on before Melkersen. Same with Fish. No game time then thrown in against Hearts. We are then needing a player to play right back against Motherwell and he doesn't get on with Campbell and even Stevenson playing right back. Today thrown in. Henderson was the same.

The recruitment worries me but the team selection and substitutions seem baffling to me.

[Smartie]

I’ve defended him and I have a great deal of sympathy for him having to try to form a functional unit out of the guff he has available but I think he lost me this afternoon.

That was a shambles, papered over only by the efforts of a very hot striker.

Team selection, tactical choices and the forced improvisation choices he’s made are often just baffling.

I’ve also heard a few rumours from a decent source that he doesn’t exactly enjoy the trust of the senior players, players who aren’t exactly known to be troublemakers.

[NC1875]

Has he been on talking about football IQ yet ? Oh the irony when he starts that crap.

Does he come across as a leader? No. He’s slavers p1sh
Should we have a enough to beat the likes of Ross County, St Johnstone & Dundee Utd at home? I’d say so.
Does his team selections and subs baffle you? They baffle me.
Does he know his best team? Nope
Is he on an awful run of form? Yes

The clubs that much a shambles, the only reason we don’t want to sack him is because what went before him.

Dreading next week with David Brent Jnr in charge.

[18Craig75]

Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s just keeping the seat warm whilst we appoint a DOF and then he can pick his own man.

Strange team selection today. No tactics or game plan as far as I could see and 11 players that looked like they had never met. Even Marshall looked clueless. A really tough watch; reluctant to give him any praise at all, but at least Maloney had a system and a plan (just a shame it was total crap to watch and ineffectual) - I can’t see any evidence of that team being coached.

I think that’s a good analogy.

I don’t think it’s impossible he could turn it around so I’m not completely in the LJ must go camp but there is definitely a sense of inevitability about it.

Team selections are all over the place, players are being chucked here there and everywhere hoping for the best and we’re heavily reliant on one or two players rather than being a good cohesive team.

I would be quite pleased if he was sacked now, if he is going tk stay we need tk back him in the transfer market as this team could well get us relegated.

Playing our best centre half in midfield just epitomises his level of competency.. Got to play your best players where they are most effective, or you basically weaken 2 positions in one move. How he doesn’t see that is beyond weird ..

Can't see him going anywhere to be honest. Kensell won't want another managerial failure on his record so will be sitting tight hoping a DoF changes our fortunes next season. Kensell will be thinking about his own job now and turkeys don't vote for Christmas.

[Carheenlea]

I left the ground with a bit of a spring in the step pleased to have salvaged a point with the late equaliser. Relief more than anything, and while it was far from a good performance I felt the point was still well deserved.

Come on here after getting home and I’m surprised the mood is one of total doom and gloom. I’m getting the feeling that Nisbet’s late strike wasn’t the most welcomed goal Hibs have ever scored.

I concur, getting rid of him now and appointing someone else before the DOF comes in, probably doesn't make much sense. So it's either dismiss now & have a caretaker (Gray?) for a likely extended period, or hang fire for now whilst still a few points clear of relegation. Suspect he'll now be here for a bit unless things get perilously bad in the league, or a particularly heavy defeat next week forces the hand.

Anyone on the coaching staff but David Gray, literally anyone!!

[Mikey_1875]

He is hampering what limited ability this squad has. Unable or unwilling to bring any youth through and a whole host of poor transfer signings (which he has claimed responsibility for).

Starting line ups costing us goals and no sign of any style or system. Has to go.

[j'adorehibs]

im not sure who could get a tune out of our defence and midfield ....we seriously need a whole new back 3 or 4 and at least 2 other midfielders

if we dont replace porto if he leaves with a decent centre half and dont replace the campbells, newells, stevensons, hanlons, JDH then we will continue to have performances like we see today

its all fair and well getting rid of kenneh, mitchell, dabrowski etc, the squad is too big but the main problem is the starting 11 is poor.

i couldn't be happier with up top especially when boyle is back and if we keep kylo and secure nisbet for 2 more seasons...we need starting defenders and midfielders to improve

Pretty much this, the next defeat - in all likelihood in the cup - and I think the board will have little choice.

Which is a shame, and I think we need stability but I just can’t see him being the long term solution. His selections since the Celtic game have been bizarre and the fact that the Hibernian Team Selector Tombola is being pulled out in ****ing January says a lot.

With regards to your first line, he played our best defender in midfield and a midfielder at right back despite having two right backs on the bench.

In terms of getting a tune out of our defence I would suggest that’s a decent starting point to look at.

Megwa should have played and that would have allowed everyone else to play in a natural position. If he can’t get an opportunity in those circumstances, he never will. Must be pretty dispiriting for the young lads just now. No pathway to the first team, despite the first team being dreadful.

For that reason alone he deserves the sack, I'm not one for wanting managers binned after a bad run, I don't care what nonsense they spout in interviews and I couldn't care less about him claiming responsibility or not for our less than stellar signings. As he is either too arrogant or stupid to see the obvious then he has to go, I'm afraid.

Don’t want to start a new threat…I just feel Dundee Utd seemed motivated to get a result today, dare I say it motivated to secure the points for the manager.

Our players didn’t. Given this is the third manager this is happened to, I think it’s fair to ask if the manager is really the problem here.

That starting team and tactics today were mental. One players individual brilliance keeping him in his job.

Teams with much poorer squads out play us on a regular basis.

That's it for me, said multiple times at the game that the performance reminded me of the slow slide to relegation under Butcher. Constantly changing lineup, bizarre substitutions, and most crucially - players that don't know what they're doing and don't have confidence in the manager.

The problem is that sacking him now, of all times, when we don't even have a recruitment head in place, would possibly be worse than keeping him.

We are a shockingly run football club and Gordon is about to find out next week what happens when we lose our patience. Barely anyone will be there and whoever's left after we inevitably lose will be protesting outside the West.

LJ needs two windows to get rid of players that shouldn’t be here anymore and ones who can’t develop. A new DoF is a positive step forward, but it’s crucial it’s the right appointment.

What I want to see though is some of our young talent promoted to the first team as I think it’s curbing development and enthusiasm if we don’t.

His arrogance is astounding and he knows nothing about Scottish football and doesn't even try to learn.

Today can be added to the disgraceful league cup team selections where he totally underestimated Falkirk and Morton or thinking he could overrun Celtic away from home or playing Fish and dropping MG v Hearts.

He doesn't understand that in Scottish football you must start a home match on the front foot and that the first 20 minutes are vital as the pace of the game will be intense.

Playing Porto as deep holding midfielder and Campbell as RB immediately takes the pace out of Hibs game notwithstanding the fact that Campbell isn't very good anyway as a right back a fact staring the wideo in the face from last weeks Motherwell game.

It was Dundee Utd at home not Celtic, Sevco, Aberdeen or Hearts so a positive aggressive start is of searing importance so there was no need to be so negative.

Everything is wrong about this utter imposter from his tactics, his signings, his substitutions, his post match analysis but most of all his engrained lazy assumptions that Scottish football is just so crap so I can happily experiment as I go along.

He needs a dose of humble pie in the form of a quick sacking as he is now a dead man walking unwilling and unable to change and totally untrustworthy given his litany of duff signings.

Dreadful selection? Did you not call a poster out for questioning the starting 11 then asked him what he would’ve done differently?

[Jim44]

His arrogance is astounding and he knows nothing about Scottish football and doesn't even try to learn.

Today can be added to the disgraceful league cup team selections where he totally underestimated Falkirk and Morton or thinking he could overrun Celtic away from home or playing Fish and dropping MG v Hearts.

He doesn't understand that in Scottish football you must start a home match on the front foot and that the first 20 minutes are vital as the pace of the game will be intense.

Playing Porto as deep holding midfielder and Campbell as RB immediately takes the pace out of Hibs game notwithstanding the fact that Campbell isn't very good anyway as a right back a fact staring the wideo in the face from last weeks Motherwell game.

It was Dundee Utd at home not Celtic, Sevco, Aberdeen or Hearts so a positive aggressive start is of searing importance so there was no need to be so negative.

Everything is wrong about this utter imposter from his tactics, his signings, his substitutions, his post match analysis but most of all his engrained lazy assumptions that Scottish football is just so crap so I can happily experiment as I go along.

He needs a dose of humble pie in the form of a quick sacking as he is now a dead man walking unwilling and unable to change and totally untrustworthy given his litany of duff signings.

I agree with every word of this. He seems a decent guy, a bit like Heckingbottom, but he’s not got a clue about the game up here and is winging it. A quickie divorce would suit all parties.

He can’t make a dreadful team selection, change it 10 minutes in and then try to take the credit for it!

He also made an equally as bad a team selection in the derby a couple of weeks back, his determination to squeeze Fish into the team is looking like it’ll be his downfall.

[Franck Le God]

I spend more time looking at that ****-show on his head than I do watching him with the ball at his feet.

Saying he knows nothing about Scottish football is a lazy accusation. He clearly does and has a cup winners medal from his time in Scotland as a player. He's not from Gambia for goodness sake.

Made me laugh when you described him as a "wideo". Haven't seen that used for years 😂

[MWHIBBIES]

Dreadful selection? Did you not call a poster out for questioning the starting 11 then asked him what he would’ve done differently?

Yes, because I believed Fish would be right back, and Porteous centre back. Which I've already said. Which would've been fine, and when we changed to that, we were significantly better. Answer your stupid question?

[jacomo]

C’mon now. None of this is his fault. Needs at least 3 transfer windows to get in his own players and ideas across. We can’t keep sacking managers.

Ah right so your assumption was wrong and the poster you were having a go at was correct to question the starting 11 then?

[jacomo]

When was the last time we played well for 90 mins against 11 players and a decent team?


2017?

[bingo70]

The next manager should be on 6 month contract which will save on severance pay.
The players just now would not be able to put in a decent performance for any manager so the next will clearly be short term.
Then the next.
Then the next.
Then the next.
Then the next.

That’s just nonsense.

The players played in their right position would be able to put in a much better performance for their manager.

Also, in terms of the length of the managers reign, Ross was here for 2 and a half years, Maloney was 6 months and Johnson hasn’t been sacked yet.

[MWHIBBIES]

Ah right so your assumption was wrong and the poster you were having a go at was correct to question the starting 11 then?

Yes, absolutely. As I've already said.

I have absolutely no issue admitting I'm wrong when I am you know. Dunno how else you expected me to reply?

[Onceinawhile]

Starting Campbell at right back today after the game on Sunday was a shambles. Especially with two right backs on the bench.

I'd like him to leave now.

[Mcbizz1998]

Who was our best players on the bench?

I wasn’t just talking about today. McGeady and Magennis at Tynecastle.

Then to move him out of right back.. Have instant success with him on the wing. Then moved him back into right back and hung him out to dry with zero support on the wing infront of him.. Mental!

What position was McGeady today?

I found our formation and positions of players really confusing. Whenever I thought I had it sussed, players would pop up where I wasn’t expecting them.

[dchibs]

Anyone noticed a lack of consistency in substitutions. The Derby Mckirdy starts then doesn't get game time at all against Motherwell. Melkersen doesn't get game time in the Derby but thrown on ahead of Mckirdy in Motherwell. Today Mckirdy on before Melkersen. Same with Fish. No game time then thrown in against Hearts. We are then needing a player to play right back against Motherwell and he doesn't get on with Campbell and even Stevenson playing right back. Today thrown in. Henderson was the same.

The recruitment worries me but the team selection and substitutions seem baffling to me.
I hope Henderson never plays another game for us again, if he plays him against Hearts then he can **** off.

[matty_f]

Today was a joke. As soon as the team was announced you could tell we'd be in trouble. A defence playing its first game together but with a midfielder at right back and our best centre half in midfielder. With two right backs on the bench.

We were all over the place. Error after error, players running about with no clue what they're doing, poor choices in possession, worse out of possession.

Johnson is constantly rolling the dice, add never looks like he knows how they'll land. That can't be good for players and it's certainly not good to watch.

He needs to sort it out or go.

I’ve got serious concerns about his Derby team. With what he will pick and the lack of players available who are considered decent.

[Unseen work]

The one thing that really confused me today is Porteous in midfield.

He was brilliant at centre half last week.

You’re down a right back so surely you’d think the defence needs as little disruption as possible? Instead he plays Campbell right back and drafts in fish. 2 changes instead of 1 to the back line.

Agree re subs - it seems to chop and change with the only one not getting a chance Tavares.

I agree. Our midfield is crap whatever we do just now, why ruin our best chance having a solid day at the back by taking out our best centre half and playing him in a position that doesn’t improve us there!

He HAS to play his real position if still here come Sunday.

It's not that I want him out, I'm an optimist, and a supporter by default, but I just don't see any way back with the fans now. We're at the stage where even a derby win would surely just delay things.
It's too far gone I'm afraid.

Genuinely couldn’t believe he started Fish & Rocky up against Fletcher. One of the most experienced target men in the league against 2 players with barely 50 combined professional appearances between them.

[Svengali]

Megwa should have played and that would have allowed everyone else to play in a natural position. If he can’t get an opportunity in those circumstances, he never will. Must be pretty dispiriting for the young lads just now. No pathway to the first team, despite the first team being dreadful.

Yep and if he’s not good enough, why is he even on the bench. Give the laddie a chance.

Only LJ can put a CH in midfield, a central midfielder to RB, change it all in 10 minutes, that sees the CH go back to defence, The midfielder back to midfield and the loan centre half to right back.

Meanwhile, two right backs sit on the bench.

But that’s high level management IQ for you….. what do we know

[flash]

The biggest issue, as alluded to by several posters above, is the complete lack of consistency in team selection.

Yesterday's team should have been the same as the Motherwell game with either Miller or Megwa in at right back.

When the manager said he might need to "get creative" the alarm bells started ringing.

Instead of making one change which left everyone playing where they should we ended up starting the game with a complete dogs dinner of a line up.

Presuming he is still here next week, and he will be you would think, we can only hope he puts round pegs in round holes and at least gives us a fighting chance.

He should roll the dice with the younger players, Matty, particularly giving either Mengwa (sp) a go on the right or Macintyre on the left.

At least they’ll give you their all and would be playing with a point to prove that they’re better than the current personnel who simply aren’t up to it.

The crowd would be more patient and encouraging with younger players too.

It really is this simple.

If Miller isn't ready to play 90 minutes then get as long as you can out of him and see where we are when the change needs made.

Rotating multiple players when only one change was necessary was just making things more confusing and more complicated than they needed to be. It also necessitated a change in shape mid way through the 1st half as the original choice was such a shambles.

Next week it has to be a case of playing the best available player in their correct position. That means Porteous at CB, McGeady wide and Campbell in midfield.

[Scotty Leither]

It would have been difficult for the kids to be much worse than the two starting full backs yesterday.

From the limited time I’ve seen them, Macintyre while still slightly built plays with a bit of dig and desire, and the other laddie Mengwa is comfortable on the ball.

In short they’ve got attributes sadly lacking in that team at the moment.

[Nicho87]

LJ would get more credit and make a point to the board by playing players in their correct position as best he can. But the trying to fix it with Campbell at right back etc just makes frustrated fans hit boiling point.

The options on the bench are futile just now.

Posts like your one above are a damning indictment of him. Forget all the chat about the lack of quality, the squad being too big or him needing multiple windows. The starting selection alone should be enough to get him the sack. Yet unbelievably some want him to be given more time.

Completely agree with this.

Worse than Maloney and Calderwood, and quickly approaching Duffy or Butcher levels of incompetence. It's amazing that we managed to find someone so bad out of all the people we could have gone for really.

Total fraud that shouldn't be anywhere near us.

He's done nothing, and I mean literally nothing, to improve us one bit from last season. He brings no value whatsoever to our club and is actively making us worse.

Can't get my head around why RG is allowing this to continue so long. He was right to bin Maloney quickly and should have done the same here.

If somebody is just giving him grief about the team selection he can't really bite back seeing as he saw fit to change it himself.

He has no football IQ, it’s so ironic it’s something he keeps mentioning. When as a player, he hardly set the heather alight anywhere. And same goes for him as a manager.

Another Kensell like wideboy who thinks he knows everything. Get them both out of this club.

[RossScott1991]

Think the tide has turned against LJ. Anyone giving him the benefit of the doubt due to the recruitment / boardroom level problems have now switched.

Poor team selections, playing folk out of position. Constantly talking to the media and not taking any accountability

Starting to feel we have a dud and need a better pair of hands to spearhead what is a crucial time at club.

A comfortable hearts victory (which is likely) could and Probaly should see end of him.

Definitely, unless he wins next week the fans feelings towards him will be too poisonous a new DOF won’t change ****.

If we decide to keep him the DOF will be facing an upwards battle from the start, we’d be as well starting fresh.

There were some mental stats about the Championship earlier this season. One of them was that the team who were bottom had lost fewer games than Blackburn who at the time were 3rd. Looking at it now Blackpool who are 2nd bottom have lost the same number of games as Blackburn, now 5th.

I saw a report on them a couple of weeks ago, about how they have far more points than the performances would have expected. They’ve scored a lot more goals than the xG stat thinks they would.

They have the lowest xG in the division, but actually sit in 5th place.

The formation yesterday with Porteous in midfield, Campbell right back was actually genius. If you set it up wrong and go a goal behind you can swap it round and stand up infront of the camera and take credit for the inevitable improvement with a straight face. Having 2 right backs on the bench aswell - that's next level genius I can't compehend. Superb
