Anyone on here knows I have banged on about the need for an experienced manager for a while and I and others couldn't deny the fantastic turnaround when Tonda took over, so I thought maybe just maybe, this guy has it. But that's 3 games without a victory now and terrible defeat to Oxford again. It's going to end in tears again isn't it. [Post edited 26 Dec 17:22]

Certainly showed a lack of experience today and in the previous two games.
And it's nice to see Romeu back, but honestly, he did feck all to help today. What happened to the young lad on the bench? The substitutions just defy any logical thinking.
Laughing stock yet again. It's all becoming very tedious. | | | |

I said from the start that there was only one reason for bringing Romeu back, past glory hunting! |  |

Today’s were abysmal | | | |

He needs an experienced assistant imo, ie someone who knows this league and what you have to do to grind out results
From what I can see the rest of his staff are from his U21 set up |  | | |

And he was brought back as a PR stunt, to get the fans off the back of Sport Republic. | |

Southamptonfan, you and I were the only ones who said it from day one about Still.
I didn’t comment about Tonda, wishing at least to give the fella a chance but it grieves me to say it the doughnuts who own and run the club appear to have made the same mistake again.
The only other feasible explanation is that the experienced players at the club are running the club from the dressing room up rather than the other way around.Player power did for Still and I won’t be at all surprised that it will do it for Tonda.
As I pointed out when Still was appointed, experienced players ask a new manager when things are going wrong, “ where are your medals ?”. If you have none to show them they quickly revert to their previous easy street comfort zones with losing games being an acceptable result. [Post edited 26 Dec 17:48]

I think the Jury's still out. I don't want to condem him too early. He did after all find a winning formula for 5/6 of his first games. All he needs to do is find it again.
I do think teams have studied us and worked us out though. The manager's job is to change up things to outsmart the opposition. We seem to have just gone back to possesion driven sideways bullshit that we had before TE. It makes me think senior players in the squad are an issue in influencing a young manager that we need to play the RM way. They need to get rid of that style now or TE will face the same oblivion WS did. [Post edited 26 Dec 17:44]

Exactly right. The problem when things go wrong in particular, is that an experienced manager can point out his previous successes to show the players that he knows what he is doing - "I know what I'm doing. I have won promotions / titles / cups. Trust me". The Still's and Tonda's of this world are still learning, haven't won anything in the past and the players know it. It gives the players power to argue and disobey. [Post edited 26 Dec 18:09]

Let’s face it when they sacked Still no way did they plan to appoint Tonda permanently. It was only when we won those games on the bounce that Dragan and his clowns appointed him permanently slapping themselves on the back in the process.
Tonda will get the sack , just like every manager the clowns at the top appoint.
Nothing will change until Dragan and co fvck off. | | | |

Hindsight is the most wonderful thing.
After 6 wins out of 7, there was no way he wasn't going to get the job. |  |

I think we have to stop thinking because we spent so much money we will jump back up to the Premiership it doesn't work like that.
Can you imagine how this team would cope with being in the top flight again. |  | | |

Why is it hindsight? He was never wanted. The players bothered to put a shift for a few games. Now it’s no win in 3 and 7 points from 6 . Bin him and get carrick |  |

Tonda is a way better proposition than the uninspiring Will Still who was taking us down probably. But Tonda needs an experienced assistant, target man and decent goalie and the fans need to show some patience.
After the chastening season last year and the Russball habits that seem hard to shake off, the players appear to be quickly demoralised and soon resort to sideway passing as their default. This is a BIG job! | |

I disagree, I think they did want Tonda all along. Otherwise, why did they not put Lallana in temporary charge or Trollop? They promoted Tonda immediately from the under 21s. They didn't make such big changes without an eye on Tonda getting the job. Spors knew Tonda and wanted him from the start because he knows him and he was cheap. [Post edited 27 Dec 16:17]
