You are not answering that so many players have got worse or not shown up
at all. Apart from McCormack the whole team sadly falls in that category.
That alone needs a bloody good answer.

Yes, it's very simple. He's had plenty of time to make a difference to the

I would take Malky Mackay. Has Cellino even heard of him though?

I agree with this. Under him in the last month or so we had two back to back
results/performances that are amongst the worst in the club's entire history.

I'd say Pearce has got better than he was under Warnock (he may have done
so anyway, through settling at the club).
McCormack has got better (again you could argue he would have anyway, but

Smith has improved over the season.

Of the team at the moment;

It's not black and white.
Some older players have limited scope left to improve / change and/or are
in career wind down (aka the washed up players of Colin) - Norris, Kenny,
Green, Brown, Varney, Tonge, Diouf, Pugh and (to a lesser extent) Warnock.
Byram has had a difficult season due to injury.
I don't see any point looking at the improvement in individual players - his
job is to get the group of players playing coherently as a team using
tactics/strategies that maximise their attributes.

True, but no club achieves anything by having an incompetent manager either.

You might be right. But might as well wait until the end of the season now. New
manager wouldn't be able to do anything in such a short time, and a string of
poor results would undermine their reputation.

Because he can't make a premiership side out of a League One squad?
