Still Gerrard couldn’t do it in 11 months. Of course. Doesn't negate the possibility that a new boss has already had a chat with Danks though does it? As I said, unlikely, but not outside the realms of possibility at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 At least we showcased today, that with the right formation, the fans behind them, these players are good. The media spin will be interesting, but is should make a few of our targets view this as a job worth taking. At least we are looking a lot more tempting than the dog heads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daft Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 We had much more movement up front and more options. Partly, I think, because we got there with more urgency which meant we didn't always arrive with a pace that allowed Brentford to consolidate their defense, and that left us with both more players to play in as well as more space to use. We looked a different team in the final third, quite literally, since we had more people joining the attack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Villarcana Posted October 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2022 the boys look super close nit, loving the group hug goal celebrations, they all got round ollie . Touching moments. I feel Gerrard was not liked at all and the sense of relief on the players evident. Maybe these boys needed a manager to not be an egocentric knob and actually feel valued. Ya know... people and stuff .Captain shithouse, you have to love it 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The togetherness of the lads is a joy and I’m so happy to see these sorts of celebrations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Don_Simon Posted October 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2022 What's most exciting, is that the team that played today is missing Digne, Kamara and Carlos. For the new manager, whoever it may be, with the squad we currently have and the financial backing they'll be given, it's a truly brilliant project to be a part of. (Also, 41,000 there today - our fans are absolutely brilliant) 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 What a great message to send to any prospective manager. Haven't had a grin like that leaving VP for a while. UTV 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daft Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Guys, I am also really happy, but this was one game. I mean, long may it continue, but a swallow does not a Summer make as they say. Encouraging and and excellent reaction to the sacking, but still. Let's not get too carried away. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Makes you think what we could achieve with a manager who boosts player's morale, rather than skull **** it - can see why we are balls deep on Amorim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 The players have proved what they are capable of. This is not the sort of performance that we would get under Dyche. I mentioned it in the match thread but we need a manager that can work closely with Danks to continue the excellent performance that today showed we can produce.

The_Steve Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 We are in the market for a forward-thinking attacking manager I’m sure of that. There’s a reason why Danks was given the nod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
