lloydxmas Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Yeah i suppose proud is a bit strong, but I like the guy based on how he conducts himself in the press and just his general persona. Dont have a problem with him blaming the players each week either and dropping hints about the board. I think he has the right characteristics to manage at this level (not our level!!) anyway. Given up on the football side now and expect another 7+ defeats before were done. Nothing anyone can really do about it anymore, last dice was thrown long ago.

Kbdrum88 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Tbh I like remi garde, he's probabally the best manager we've had in a long while, but at completely the wrong time, I don't think he's a relegation fighting quality manager, but if we were mid table same as billic at West Ham think he could of taken us to the next level, but these players can't play his football. Plus I reckon he'll stay on till the end of the season to save face and show he tried which is admirable, but still I think he'll then walk for untenable working circumstances, false promises and disbelief in the ownership. For all intensive purposes I think we should offer him the chance to leave not fire him letting him keep face. But now that we're all but going down get in a grafter manager who knows the championship and getting teams up and get a head start on promotion so he can asses the team and youth before the window, get his transfers ready and come out the gates fighting next season, rather than wait for Garde to leave and have a two month gap to start over June/ July time .

How and why is he the best manager we've had in a long time? His record is woeful 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbdrum88 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Because I could imagine sherwood, MacLeish and lambert at man city with an unlimited war chest and still **** it up.. But I could see garde playing good football at a mid table club with the right players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sideways passing, no goal threat, no going for games and the shite defending? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbdrum88 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I've watched a lot of Lyon games before he came and read up on him before he was here and he played totally different I literally think the players just a lot of the time don't implement what there being told, stealing a living 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 12 hours ago, tomaspg said: there are plenty of reasons for us being in the situation that we are, none which are solely responsible. You could put me in the role of prime minister and let me try to acclimatise for years on end, i still wouldnt be any good at it at the end of it as im not a politican, like most of the players we have arent premier league quality and im having a hard time ever seeing them being such. But as i said, it doesnt matter what tactics you have, or who is the manager when you have a defensive line which stands still and watch when the opposition score. you can have 11 defenders, but if they are as mobile as a brick there isnt a single formation or tactic thats going to make it work. Unfortunatley our whole club seems to be rotten from the core I couldn't agree more. I couldn't honestly say who would manage their way out of this.

TRO Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) I think there is a distinct difference between Remi being a nice bloke and Remi being a good manager. Remi has conducted himself in a fashion that suggests he is a nice guy and my wife has served him in a store and says he is a decent sort. The conditions he has to work in,it is almost impossible to gauge his worth. He would not have been my choice, but that is not meant to be derogatory, It means I knew nothing about him. I see the woeful attempt on the pitch at resembling a premier league side.....but I have no idea the size of the task at Bodymoor, I think few people do. I think this cesspit is too much for him and he is too brave for his own good....Arsene needs to be a real friend and tell him to get out while his reputation is still workable.

TRO Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) There have been very few managers that I have been excited at their unveiling. Martin O'Neill Graham Taylor Ron Atkinson perhaps Brian Little too......Ron Saunders was unknown as were so many. Now.....Its like the remnants of a Syrian town.....I wouldn't know where to start. I find it hard to blame Remi or Tim for that matter.....they are both too inexperienced for this debacle. Edited March 2, 2016 by TRO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make some excellent points, I was just thinking if this is the kind of job they wanted the manager to do post-Sherwood, why on earth did they pick Remi? He is obviously a guy for medium to long term improvement, changing the way the players train and the culture of the club, and then they just took away all funding at the first opportunity and utterly condemning us to a quick death. It's just an absolute cluster-**** really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can fully understand where your going with this and I too agree that under very different circumstances he probably has the tools in his locker to move us forwards, however what genuinely worries me is the fact that this giant tanker is going to take some considerable time to turn, and I'm not sure Remi's qualities and strengths and I don't doubt he has them are the ones needed to do this. Which is why with a Hugh sigh I say that he should leave at the end of the season and Nigel Pearson should come in. Chalk and cheese I fully agree and I know who I would prefer to share a beer or two with, however that wouldn't bring us back up. Sad but that's how I see things now.
