I’m absolutely certain it isn’t Pat Jones. Complete waste of a player.

I’ll get the “we won didn’t we” defence out of the way first.
Setting up with 5 defenders and 2 defensive midfielders when AT HOME to a team who’ve lost every game this season is not for me.
I was impressed by Butlers solution to his problem of who is best playing wide left between Jones and Brennan. Answer – play one at RWB and bench the other. Simple.2 users thanked author for this post.
How many defenders need to be injured for JB to get a start at CB?
Howe, Ogle & Rose not available and he still loses out to a LB!!1 user thanked author for this post.
Further on into the interview the third shirt for this season is mentioned. Michelle says it’s due to be launched next week, and is in support of someone local who is trying to do something (outside of the club). James Moody says it’s a collaboration with an individual that they’ve recently done a small collaboration with.
Gotta be PD surely!!

There have been several proposed line ups on here this season from “better managers” than Butler. As far as I recall no two were either alike or matched Butlers.
The positive, of course, is that none of the teams selected by Bruers ever lost.4 users thanked author for this post.
Being too quick has often been a problem.

So it’s a “we’re happy to hear about what we’re doing right but have no interest in what we could do better” approach then? How will we ever improve if nobody listens?
Could it be that the manager’s attitude is directed from above?1 user thanked author for this post.
For clarification – no intention to disrespect players in my post.

Can’t access either of Butler’s post-match interviews. Considering the shambolic defending was there any indication why 3 defenders that helped get a clean sheet against Stoke didn’t even make the squad? Not all injured surely.

In agreement with most of your OP HI but if I could only choose one it would have to be:-
“Finally, stop worrying about how other teams are setting up, find your own system and style of play and STICK to it.”We have NL players for a reason, they are limited in their ability and that ability needs to be maximised. “Be the best you can be” – NA every week) Get them comfortable with one system and in their correct position.

Lack of quality can be no surprise when we see only one of the summer signings is a guaranteed starter in early season. ( And IMO that’s based on reputation rather than anything yet done in an Iron shirt) Effectively Butler, by his selection, is admitting that he’s signed players that are no better than those he had already.

The keeper can set an example by getting it “away” instead of rolling it sideways to a defender who then concedes a corner.

Sorry to hear this, I remember how good he can be.
Best of luck to him, family first.2 users thanked author for this post.
Not bad.
Can you leave out Jones after MOM last week?
Will Whitehall be fit?
Can Gale do it from the start?
Has last night confused Butler even more?
Will he continue to resist 4-4-2?1 user thanked author for this post.
Interesting line up?
No Smith
No Whitehall
No wide men
