Forget about all the stats....

[busby1985]

......and look at what’s in front of us. We had 6 days to prepare for today. 6 days to go into the detail of what to do, what was expected. 6 days to go into who had who at corners, throw ins, set plays. Where to be when attacking, where to be when defending. We had 6 days to watch killie, what are their strengths, how can we get at them, stop them hurting us. 6 days to prepare and that’s what we got. A shambles. Formation all over the place. No strikers. No game plan other than long hopeful punts from Berra. The manager said Sean Clare was crippled with a lack of confidence, he throws him up front. That’s Sean Clare now played as a centre mid, an attacking midfielder, a right back and now a striker. It’s beyond embarrassing how under prepared we look for these games. We aren’t playing Thursday Sunday, we are playing Saturday to Saturday pretty much and no one looks like they have a clue what they are doing. Forget the stats, this is the biggest concern. 

[busby1985]

Also worth noting that we prepared all pre season to play 442. What ever prep we are doing day to day, it doesn’t seem to be tactics and shape. We do have a manager that brags about not having to take training Monday to

Thursday due to the “excellent coaches” we have at our disposal. One of those “excellent coaches” was delighted at how we prepared for two defeats to Celtic at the end of last season.

Sorry but, reverse  psychology here.....why should we give two shiny shits about watching a team we should be pumping at home regularly..... watching them so we can nullify what they do is where we are going wrong..... just get out and play, let them worry about us..... we could be over coaching (imo).  

 

Let’s say we had some big gun to play against us in Europe, am sure they would not be to concerned about how we play if we can’t get the ball off them.  Don’t see much of the cheeks watching us play every week to put us in our box...... they just concentrate on how they play (as does everyone else we play by the looks of things).

I don’t disagree with what you are saying. Get us right and I think outside Celtic and Rangers, we should have enough to be beating everyone. I think it’s modern football tho to “watch” the teams we are playing. The point was more that what ever we are doing, 6 days to prepare, ended in what we seen today. And today isn’t the first. We seem to be all over the place most weeks.

I agree, it’s defiantly worth looking at a teams strength and weakness to an extent but, surly just a glaze over would do I.e. their best player to man mark and, their weakest defender (feed the dummy etc....) but nothing more than a glaze over..... we should not be spending 6 days preparing  to undo Killie at home, 6 days just stinks of nullifying them so, they put out 2-3 players we didn’t expect in positions we didn’t expect and confusion arises ..... 6 days prep to box them in goes out the window.  Fek em, let them worry about us.

Only once today did Berra punt it up the park, that was in the later stages of the first half.

 

Not once in the second half did he "punt it up the park" in fact the last 10 minutes of the game consisted of others punting it up the park to him.

 

Critcise all you want but there is no need to make up and state things that just didn't happen in the game.

We were sitting 3 points off Celtic and he was bigging up the set up and taking delight at how much things had improved and how he now doesn’t even need to coach the players.  The day after we got skelped 5-0 by the way.

The interview is relevant due to my point being that we had 6 days to prepare for today and we hadn’t a clue what we were doing. The interview backed up my point that our manager doesn’t get involved in training till a day or so before a match and it’s pretty evident he doesn't considering we make the same mistakes week in week out. Since that interview telling everyone how great the set up is we have won something like 4 games and currently sit 9th after almost a full round of matches. If we continue in the form we have shown since said interview, we will be relegated. It’s quite clear which one of us is off our heads.........Viva Levein 🙈🙈

No offence but if you were not there today then it may be hard to comprehend how bad it was.   We started with 2 front men on the bench and none on the park.   We changed formation and players positions at least 3x times, by half time players looked lost.

 

We still started with berra smith damour whelan clare mulraney mashino.  7 outfield players levein has signed and are part of the first team and very well may start in a full strenth squad with levein in charge.   

 

We are so poor we look like bottom 6 fodder.  We have lost points at home to ross county, hamilton, motherwell and now killie at home.  That is never acceptable as a club of our size

All you say is correct and clear signs that Levein has completely lost the plot assuming he ever had it in the first place. He has no game plan and it's obvious the players don't know what they are supposed to be doing from one game to the next. Not surprising given the number of changes he makes to not just players but formations.

 

As far as I know he is not working with the players on a daily basis as he has too many balls to juggle. The guy is clearly a control freak and meddles in all areas without really benfitting any individual department.

 

AB was supposed to be doing her review of the footballing department well she better get a move on and sort it out soon otherwise there will be a lot of very unhappy Hearts fans scraming for action.

Imagine how McLean and Keena felt seeing two midfielders - one just joined and one left out of the team as recently as the last game because of his confidence issues - picked up front ahead of them.

 

Shocking team selection and set-up today. Would have liked an explanation from Craig as to why we went with that, forcing four players to play out of their regular position. Three of those players - Smith, Hickey and Meshino have been excellent in their right positions as well so it's like doubling hurting our chances by doing that. The Clare selection - not that he had an especially worse game than anyone else - was the most bizarre decision after Levein's recent comments about his confidence and needing to protect him. And then blaming the players after the game. This game was his lowest moment as manager second time around for me.

As I mentioned to you before the tinkering does us no favours and was ultimately a factor in conceding the goal today. Felt sorry for Mulraney, he struggles with the defensive side of wing back and his confidence has deteriorated again. 

If you want a classic example of how clueless the management team are then the Damour substitution is perfect. Killie are playing one up against our 3 centre backs (half fit as well), Meshino is patently struggling up top himself. Forced into a sub due to injury it was obvious that we should bring on a forward to help Meshino as we could go to a back 4 against 1 up. But no, we go like for like bringing on the most negative minded midfielder in the squad. If you can't go and try and win games when you are at home then how do you expect to climb the league? 

Utterly inept and eternally negative.

I can understand why he might want to stick with his pre-match plan - however bad it turned out to be - for longer than 20 mins or so. Can't disagree with the ineptness of that team selection though. It's just inviting criticism when no-one would have criticised him for just playing our 11 best and fit players in their natural positions from the start with our injury list. That team selection was borderline trolling - Levein's stubborn, arrogant streak kicking in big time. He should be saying to the fit players and youngsters filling in, just go out and do your best and he can help them by playing them in the formation and positions they are most comfortable in. Would Morrison an Mulrany as two wide midfielders, with Whelan and Irving in the middle and Meshino in a roving role behind a striker have been that bad an idea for example? I know nothing but I just can't believe that selection.

[TheGoodLord]

Today Killie had a shape, a game plan and tbf executed it to perfection. we had none of these things and made it up as we went along with a bunch of players who have no idea what any of there roles are. It’s down to simple coaching and not over complicating.

I would hope that when you can see something isn't working then you would address it. The management team don't seem able to do that. 

 

I agree on the set up, if Uche got injured late in the week then this must have been a plan they came up with yesterday. I don't understand why you would keep Keena at the club if you won't start him in a game like today. We have a team that is low on confidence and to expect them to make that set up work at such short notice is extremely optimistic. It's depressing but not a surprise tbh.

Maybe the plan was to play Uche and Meshino up front (not the worst idea) and they just swapped Clare for Uche? How they thought these two with no real creativity behind or alongside them could break down a stuffy Killie defence though...

Yes it is, if someone is spouting pish they need pulled up for it. 

 

Is that a problem to you?

What was pish about it? 

 

The interview was 10 months ago, the day before we got skelped by Livi 5-0, but as ive all ready explained, it backed up my point about us looking like we haven’t a clue on the park. It backs that up cause our manager isn’t on the training park day to day, he leaves it to his coaches. The interview also coincides with the start of one of the worst runs in the clubs history. The interview from 10 months ago also has all the classic Levein nuggets about getting players back and how the set up is working and everything coming round the corner is class.

I'd imagine we worked all week towards playing with a target man - Uche.

All that went out the window when he pulled up injured hours before the game. 

😂😂😂😂

 

So we trained all week with Uche, he got injured the day before the game, so we fired two midfielders up top and hoped for the best. The fact that, that is probably true, you seem to think what we saw yesterday is excusable because of that, or have I taken what you’ve said wrong?

......and look at what’s in front of us. We had 6 days to prepare for today. 6 days to go into the detail of what to do, what was expected. 6 days to go into who had who at corners, throw ins, set plays. Where to be when attacking, where to be when defending. We had 6 days to watch killie, what are their strengths, how can we get at them, stop them hurting us. 6 days to prepare and that’s what we got. A shambles. Formation all over the place. No strikers. No game plan other than long hopeful punts from Berra. The manager said Sean Clare was crippled with a lack of confidence, he throws him up front. That’s Sean Clare now played as a centre mid, an attacking midfielder, a right back and now a striker. It’s beyond embarrassing how under prepared we look for these games. We aren’t playing Thursday Sunday, we are playing Saturday to Saturday pretty much and no one looks like they have a clue what they are doing. Forget the stats, this is the biggest concern. 

Now more than 6 months since we won a league match at Tynie.

Some fortress!

Again tho, what made up scenarios? Levein doesn’t take training, Levein was bigging up the system and how great it works and Levein is the route and cause of all our problems? What’s pish about that?
