Indeed. Our football coverage needs a radical transformation. I litterally seen a headline the other day about Candeias, Morelos and Cardoso getting a haircut. Pitiful.

Unfortunately the vast majority of players MW brought in were shit. On a positive note Pedro has brought in some international players who he should be able to rely on a provide us with stability. Fingers crossed. I know mate, hopefully we start to see a bit of continuity this season, the thing that annoyed me most about MW was that he didn't know his best lineup. Many a time last season I can remember watching and thinking a player had a good game only to see them dropped for the next game. Wilson for example, he would play one of two games, look solid, then was dropped for seemingly nothing. That's just one example, I actually think that some of the duds from last season could have came onto a game if they were given a run in the first team.

Dropping Wilson but keeping Keirnan as his mainstay central defender. Says it all to me. Wilson had his bad day but I cant remember Keirnen having a single good game. How raging would you be if you were Wilson and Keirnen was playing whilst you were on the bench? MW is a second rate mamager. We made the mistake of thinking he coyld develop a team with grit.

We will drop points roughly every second game due to a lack of cutting edge, flair, imagination both in home and away games - 1-1 being a very familiar score. The dhims will beat us in Sept although this time it will be a tight game. By end of october we will be 12-14 pts behind them and Pedro will be on the edge. Call me a doom merchant but it's what i think. Both that big Cameroonian midfielder and that french guy theyve just signed will flourish and be suddenly worth 3-4 times what they paid for them. Thats the formula, good scouting, more ambition in the transfer market to identify 19-23 yr old and a very good coach who improves them and sells them at top dollar to the richest league in the world. And the money is recycled and on and on it goes ....... So more than anything we need to pull out the stops and find a decent coach. Davie Moyes? Controversial giving he played for 'them' but he grew up a bluenose, he's currently out of a job. No doubt that name will divide opinion but come up with your own name cos it aint Pedro. You may not be far wrong in that but how do we fund someone like Moyes and the players he'll need? Did the board go for PC because he would make do with cheaper players and just might acieve a miracle? I don't really know how or why we signed him, but there must have been some reason. In the meantime we've got to get behind him and the team, because it's all we've got and fuck, we might even get a good surprise. It may be a bit rich coming from me, but we've also got to back the board on this one, because it's the one thing they really need to have got right this time around.

I agree - i really hope i'm wrong. My argument about money on a top class coach is that it's really an investment. For example - say you went for Moyes (or of course some other names of that kind of calibre) and he's 40k a week. It only needs him to transform one player into a top class performer - lets use Tav or Foderingham as an example. If they really develop then along comes a West Ham, Everton, Newcastle and the bidding starts at 10m The difficulty is that attracting a good coach is not just about his own wages.It's about what money he will get to build a team. I think that's why Pedro is here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Pedro will be around long enough, for me to spell his surname correctly every time? I've nearly got the pronunciation of his surname right. Hoping to have it spot on before the Motherwell game kicks off..??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobar 13,676 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I used to like the thought of Beerman playing that position but the tackle in the tarrier game is actual unforgivable, I mean I still don't know what he was thinking about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 1,114 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 New team with players from far and wide will need time to gel and I'd have thought it almost natural that we'll drop some points on the way. An appraisal at Xmas would be fairer than bowing to pressure before the summer is finished. However, it seems when you apply that to Rangers, you don't get time to fit the pieces together. The level of expectation that exists simply isn't going to be fulfilled in the short-term and the level of finance required to keep the managerial merry-go-round in business isn't there. --------------------- What'll actually happen ? Inconsistent results and unhappy/impatient fans Media stoking the fire and will vilify Pedro's unconventional reactions Board will come under pressure and will have decision to make My guess is gone by October Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

treble8 2 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 deanzmeanzheinz views make grim reading but i have to agree with him in my view your money should be spent on the most important thing at the club and that is to pay for the best manager you can afford, easier said than done i know taking everything in to account the leauge we play in etc but there is a stand out manager available at the moment ex club brugge coach michel preudhomme won trophies at every club he has managed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
