We were not consistent enough in those departments last season , hence we finished 4th That for me was about right in what I saw. Well the team is looking like it will be similar to last season. So the only way we will change how we played is via coaching. Be interesting to see if Bruce is able to make that change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he hadn’t managed to talk John Terry into accepting a paltry £100k a week halfway down the 18th fairway, what would we have done?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Followed by: "I don't know why all the players I poached from other clubs for top dollar didn't carry their form in my non-existent system.

I'm not as convinced as you, that coaching alone will fix it......I am not saying you are wrong, just saying I am unconvinced. However, If the reports are to be believed, Then Thierry Henry is being lined up to take over....I have read also, that he is waiting for assurances from the new investors, which sounds to me like a budget for reinforcements. Now my powers of deduction, tell me, if it was just coaching.....Thierry Henry could coach all that in to them. I suspect that is wishful thinking. I am still of the thought a proportion of our team is not good enough for promotion......squad maybe, but first team needs to be stronger for me. We will see what happens.

He has always been humble talking about us so I don't expect any if those quotes. If he does leave and ever comes as a returning manager for the opposition he will get a great reception here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree to an extent Tro. But you have to remember who is it that signed most of these players? If you feel they are not good enough would you trust him with more money?
