Sadly Steve is out of his depth, I don't see a positive outcome. He will contuine to play the same players regardless of how crap they play, but Perslow won't pull the trigger. All the per season talk of top 7? Forget it with Slippy G at the helm! Unless he grows a pair bottom half mediocrity awaits! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrard had enough time and hasnt impressed. His football is worse than Steve Bruce. Its time to go. Really good managers on the market now waiting for big jobs like Villa As long as you mean ‘big job’ in the sense of ‘pain in the arse with ridiculous fans’.

Look what’s happened to Spurs and getting Conte. If we really have the ambition we drone on about, then show it. Gerrard is shite and has shown nothing, he is clueless and relies on a huge back room team who are also…. shite. Would he come though? Also no to Bielsa.

With fans like these… Could see your point if he was having some bad luck and I could kind of understand what he was trying to do. But it's baffling decision after baffling decision, we have no style, are turgid to watch and although he says it's on him when things go wrong, I don't actually believe that he blames himself. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted August 6, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2022 Whoever replaces him cannot be a punt on developing a good manager. We need proven skill at managing football teams. Eventually winning a 2 horse race in a pub league is not it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if people just want to waste another season finishing 12th-14th. There's nothing wrong with aiming a bit higher? No one is demanding we challenge top 4 but given we're signing experienced international players and the wage bill is pretty much in O'Neill era I don't think it's unreasonable to think 8th-10th shouldn't be area of table we can seriously challenge. Why are we massively inflating the wage bill if we're just happy to bob around bottom half? Could instead throw in likes of Archer and KHH instead. Clubs make mistakes all the time appointing managers. Spurs is good example, were sliding down the league with Nuno and it took them all of three months to realise it and now under Conte they're going to have a very good season. We don't quite have the pull of them but plenty of europa league standard managers would relish working with this squad imo and putting their own stamp on things. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a good opportunity for him if you ask me. No interest in Bielsa. Imagine a proper manager with the kind of backing NSWE provide, not a rookie who can’t even coach and needs to employ such a big “support team”. Again, look at Spurs. We’re going nowhere atm.

Chindie Posted August 6, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2022 Poch would be a very good appointment. He's not a slam dunk guaranteed success manager but he's a guy whose done it at the top table and generally been decent. I'm no fan of Rodgers, but even he's better than the fraud in the dugout at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerner's Driver Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Anyone full throttle enjoying the Gerrard era so far? If so, what are you loving? This is is your opportunity to silence the Brexshit doubters. Perhaps we should all just be waiting patiently for the benefits 50 years down the line?

Tom13 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Tbh I wouldn't mind a manager who makes some mistakes. I just want someone who actually rates our technical players and plays them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
