[QUOTE="Puzzles, post: 7144983, member: 33230"] It's OK to admit that Kenny is not doing a good job without having a tailor made replacement available. The reality is the results are poor but we have not shown any progression despite the amount of games he's presided over. Someone mentioned he's only had one full campaign but he has managed 30 games. That's an awful lot of matches to refine a team identity. The fact that he cant translate his message to players after that many games into creating a few chances against the Maltas of the world is troubling and doesn't bode well. We are probably at a 40 year low in terms of calibre of player we have but that doesn't excuse the Lux, Azerbijian, Armenia results etc. What's clear is that these results and performances are not one-offs now. We cannot beat teams that we should be beating (far lower ranked than us). The quality of player is still there to best those teams. You can argue it delusional to expect results against France, Holland etc but we are better than the teams in pots 5 and 6 seeded and should expect a competent enough set up to beat them. You can call the Malta game meaningless etc but there's a lot to read from it to tell you where we are at. If reports are correct he didn't tinker with the team as he couldn't afford to lose the 2 matches and a clean sheet against Malta was very important to him. We are now afraid of Malta. [/QUOTE]
