Dunne “Hard to out the finger in it!” 23:42 - Aug 24 with 1826 viewsJules4367

Was anyone else frustrated by Jimmy’s interview when he kept saying we are all embarrassed but it’s hard to put the finger on it or why!!

No it is not hard at all Jimmy!

Certain players :-

give away the ball too easily
Don’t tackle
Don’t track back
Don’t see alternative options
Don’t dare try something different at free kicks
Don’t defend well
Don’t attack well
Don’t hit the target

And it’s been that way for too long!!

If we can see this why is it so hard to put a finger on it?!

Jimmy must be really angry and hurting knowing well how much the fans wanted him to stay then after getting injured came back to that horsesh*t display including his own.
Hard to do much with wave after wave of attacks coming at you and a pretty shaky keeper behind you IMO.
Been a long time since we watched a team break contain so easily and had multiple attackers heading towards our net knowing what to do and scoring at will cannot imagine what the players were feeling to be honest

I actually thought his interview was absolutely fine, given the circumstances

He is the captain and an experienced pro and many of our players selected are in the early stages of their careers.

Throwing them all under the bus and picking out the major culprits is not what a good leader would do. Ie we want improvements in the games ahead from them and as younger players,most will have more fragile egos..

There is something very wrong with this team that we’re obviously not being told about. Dressing room unrest, egos? They looked like our Premier league team of mercenaries that got us relegated all over again. If they can’t give a toss then why are they even here?

Hmmm, I don't know, feels pretty obvious to me. But apparently not.

Indeed!

Every job indeed, pretty much every aspect of life, has a significant percentage of its outcome determined by simply doing the 'basics'. Do them and you'll be ok. Don't do them at all, you lose 7-1 knowing it could have been worse.

The basics Jimmy, the basics!

I've not seen anyone mention it on here, apologies if I missed it, but do we think Dunne could retrospectively get in hot water over his elbow on Saturday? It looked pretty bad at the time, I was surprised that Coventry made less of it.

As much as like Dunne as a character, I feel like his has form for losing his head a bit when the chips are down, not ideal in your captain to be honest.

Didn’t he pick up a yellow for it? If so then they can’t take retrospective action as the referee saw it.

It was pathetic, dim-witted, and symtomatic of our brain-dead performance. Bleeds QPR, apparently. No one's suggesting he throw anyone under the bus - just come up with some sane diagnoses to mirror what we unprofessional fans can see with cataracts. Otherwise, don't insult us, and junk the interview!

Isn't that what a defence is there for - to do something about people attacking it?

The best teams defend from the front. That was almost non existant, as was the midfield behind it.

Dembele did more for Coventry than he did for us. Morgan the same.

Fielding a different team every week, with players being moved into different positions is killing us.
No structure, no balance and no continuity.

It will likely be a very different line up again this weekend, he says, as another pop up confirming the signing RND arrives.

All very timely one might say.

We're too nice and soft as shite, especially in the middle of the park and have been mostly like that for decades.

I get that Coventry have probably got some better players than us but when they are running through our midfield like they were, where are the challenges? Get a tackle in, foul them if needs be but try and do anything to try and break up their momentum. We picked up one yellow card FFS.

I don't want us to turn into Alex Neil's Preston but it really does my head in how too nice we are at times.

Yes, well made point. We don't defend from the front, the middle, or the back, unfortunately.

Indeed, and Rudoni isn't exactly the hardest man in the Championship. He wouldn't even be the hardest man at QPR.

Isn't tackling frowned upon now? All I see is backing off like a hungry lion was in front of them.

The interview wasn’t the problem really .

More, the imposter who posed as Jimmy Dunne for 90 minutes on Saturday .
He was utter gash .
That can happen .

But his body language as the 6th went in is unacceptable.
Yes, it’s the 6th. I get it .
But as leader / captain you have to be more professional than that .

His performance was one thing , but his reaction throughout was a real concern .

I agree with the O.P. Saying 'hard to put a finger on it' when so many things went wrong is a cop out. OK, don't air your dirty linen in public but at least hint at what went wrong and why,

It is far from easy coming in front of the camera's when, 45 minutes earlier, you have just lost 7-1. Not sure what posters would want. I doubt if anyone on this MB would know because they would never have experienced it. Think he said it in one word....'embarrassing'.
