i just dont believe his system, and i dont think the players do either.
if you have a team full of players who dont fully believe in the system, then either the coach or the players have to go. its much easier to get a new system than 20 new players.
i think hes similar to tortorella. he can make an average team play above average, but he cant make an above average team play great. an up and coming team with some young skill but mostly gritty players fit his style most, and were past that.
I can agree. I think he needs to loosen the system to deal with the young talented kids. Give em a general passing scheme with rough locations and let them be creative.
We have some seriously talented guys that are getting throttled by this "shoot everything, check everyone, don't make the extra pass" system.
Andy Macdonald has been very vocal against Hitchcock's system on twitter and how it doesn't let the players do what they became professionals to do.
Idk, I just want to see us win a cup before this talent starts to question that possibility.
