He clearly needs to sort his training sessions out, players have been dropping like flies all year.
Get him out.
Sometimes lots of players get injured at once. Why is it clear that it's down to poor training?He clearly needs to sort his training sessions out, players have been dropping like flies all year.

Managers would probably be a lot happier playing young players if they didn't have such job insecurity.
Is this view backed up by any evidence?He's been ***** for 8 months and hasn't even been close to getting sacked, his job couldn't have been more secure.

We think Hernandez will be fit - hopefully Siliki and Payero too.3-4-3
Defence: Howson Bamba and McNair.
WV: Tav and Jones
Midfield 2 or 3: from Crooks, JLS and Payero.
Up front 2 or 3: from Sporar, Uche, Watmore, Hernandez.
Unless I’ve included someone injured it’s not too bad.
Where is your evidence that he has not been close to being sacked?The evidence that he's been ***** for 8 months, losing to some of the worst sides in the league and hasn't been sacked.
One injury crisis is bad luck, when you're at the 30th injury crisis of the year then you can start to question how much of it is down to luck.
I wish that sounded ridiculous rather than something that is quite probably being consideredBig Uche at the back!!
They could not agree terms - within our wage structure - with those they talked to last week. You have to seriously question the player and agents holding out for better deals. We are now in mid October. That means these players are seriously way off match fitness and probably fitness. Surely any deal is better than no deal for them at this stage.I am surprised they have not taken on a free agent defender.
Fisher is out till at least April - so its like having a squad of 22 in effect.

How long have you been following the team? And football? Don't you recall us having multiple injury crisis previously? They happen. Remember under woodgate when we had no defence and played howson and McNair there? Remember mclarens season when we finished 7th? Remember the semi final when we played arsenal?
Here's an injury table. Note there are a few teams with multiple injuries.

While I understand people bring unhappy with the manager the tendancy to pick on absolutely everything he says and does is ridiculous. Just do a quick search for threads this time last year for a laugh at how fickle supporters are.
It's the lack of basic logic as well. Of course he isn't going to gamble on young kids when his job is continually on a knife edge.
I'm still baffled by the "the medical team told me not to risk Fletcher, but he said he was alright" incident, followed by Fletcher almost immediately getting injured and never playing for us again.
Sounds like the pots empty for boro doesn't fill me with confidence we will fill the gaps in January. We desperately need a central midfielder as well as defenders. It's questionable then why we spent big on deluxe signings like payero sporar and hernandez when we can't afford to pay the wages for free transfers.They could not agree terms - within our wage structure - with those they talked to last week.
