That's the main problem we have right now imo, HR doesn't cut it at this level. Epic meltdown last season that cost us a place in the top 4, I thought it probably wouldn't happen this season given our form, but then he plays 4-4-2 away to Arsenal even though we almost lost the home game because we were overrun in midfield playing 4-4-2, what do you know? We get overrun in midfield and concede 5 fucking goals, lose all confidence and suffer a meltdown even worse than last season. On top of that we turned Arsenal's season around.
HR is a pretty good manager but if we want to compete for the title and a consistent place in the top 4 we will need someone better. Harry is responsible for what is currently happening because when the going gets tough his 'knock it about and play some fucking football' tactics don't work and the players don't know what their roles are. He actually doesn't take tactical advice from those around him and insists on 4-4-2 even though everyone tells him it's a bad idea and all our best performances except the Newcastle game have come playing 4-4-1-1. Instead he does bizarre stuff like shifting Bale over to the right to play Modric left wing, substituting Livermore for VDV against Norwich when we had no other defensive midfielders on the pitch, playing Kranjcar and Modric in CM against you guys...
Two epic back to back meltdowns and yet the FA are still going to hire him for the England job probably, you have to wonder sometimes haha. Be prepared for some 4-4-2 with Lampard/Parker in central midfield and Gerrard right wing lol.
