Combination.
I fully 100% believe losing Asmir and bringing in Nardi has had a negative effect on our defence, he's not a great keeper and the back line lack cohesion, Cook seems to have been holding it together and JCS is a shadow of last year.
We miss Dykes' work rate, mad! We miss Willock and Chair doing something from nothing.
Ultimately though, Marti is setting this team up for failure, i think he's trying to grit games out with what he thinks we will work considering we can't score. A simpler way to fix that, surely, would be to try and score.

I’ll be blunt Marti is a clone of Southgate try not to lose rather than try to win played Plymouth v 10 and Sunderland v 10 at no point did he change us to an extra forward
it’s sh ite to watch balls across back 4 midfield lacks creativity there is no movement
honestly I can’t see him sorting it out fair enough for those who believe he can on the back of last season but this squad needs setting up in a manor he won’t and that’s to go 433 and 451 without the ball and the 1 not Celar
boot santos out the club he’s not as good as nico h

We got something out of Burnley and Sunderland because we pressed. Last night when we backed off and gave them space they came at us and we couldn’t cope. Yes their right winger ripped Santos apart in the first half but once Saito was swapped it that quietened down.
Playing one up front also doesn’t help - the oppo can almost play a back three as we’re so slow going forward. We need a threat up there to back them up and that’s very much a Marti issue as he sets the formation.

The injuries are having a major impact but even with our strongest eleven playing , we are a slow team , we lack movement , we sit too deep trying not to concede , we lack desire and are noy very physical . We desperately need a Warnock type manager to instil some grit and desire into the side , get forward and try to win games especially at home. In my opinion we need to play 442 with 2 wingers getting down the line and putting crosses into the box . We would definitely score more goals and at least be more threatening than we look at the moment.

The set up seemed wrong from the start..which is down to Marti. (Also he is still not tuned into how good the Championship teams can be). The players didn't react to Chair's injury and let Doak's roast Santos. For goals 2 and 3 the makeshift back four were caught out. And lack of quality in the squad which is down to the board.
To put right my suggestion is to work with what we've got by introducing a coach who knows the league. It might put Marti's nose out but we need to support him,

I blame our owners and i have blamed them since they came here , for all the crap appointments they have made . This club is definitely in the top 5 worst run clubs since they've been here. It is no coincidence that in the last 10 years we are 92nd for results in the whole league. They make crap decision after crap decision every season and the club just keeps going backwards , they just keep wasting their money. Why would you appoint Les ferdinand as football director just because he played for us. Why would you give Christian Nourry complete control of the club , not only no football knowledge but not much knowledge of life at only 26 years old . Why Chris ramsey , Ainsworth, you could go on and on.

For me the blame stops with Nourry, if you have that much control of how the club is run then you have to be accountable when things are going badly wrong.
We were all praising him at the end of last season and throughout the summer when things were improving. Now it seems we are in exactly the same position that we were 12 months ago, zero progress has been made.
Ultimately this is a results driven business, and our results simply haven't been good enough.
Time to put pressure on the owners to oust this meglomaniac!!
