Yes, it makes sense to say the wrong players for the wrong system and coaching while the manager and transfer committee to be blamed and I'm not going to get into who's to be blamed more, it was debated at length already. Nevertheless, I'd believe a top class coach would be able to make mismatch signings as effective as possible, making best use of their strengths. Take for instance, when we have a Lambert on the pitch we need a Manquillo to provide the crosses, not Hendo on the wings. When Balo is on the pitch we need a Lallana to play alongside him, not as a lone striker. Trying him out as a lone striker after 2 games a top class coach would be able to see that it's ineffective and need to switch tactics.
Even during during his Man City time Balo was never a lone striker, he has an Aguerro or Dzeko beside him, doesn't our coaches study his past games?
There're so many combos that we can work on, but our tactics is so one dimensional. Could it be the quality or the lack of experience in our coaches? Or that they're mid-table quality coaches?
Many here have said before Suarez has actually make us look and played so good. I refused to believe, but looking at what happened so far this season, I gotto agreed I was wrong. Having Suarez on the pitch, the opposition defence simply can't read our game, don't know which direction Suarez is going to attack them. it could be from the left, right, centre or coming through nowhere. We were simply unpredictable as Suarez was given the freedom to roam. I'd simply put it as Suarez coached the team to play in an unpredictable and highly effective manner and I'd go to the extend to say he coached the team instead of the coaches coached him.
