steven33jackie 1,882 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 This is the biggest problem with Pedro, last week he brings Pena on at 65 mins, at that point we are a man down and chasing the game and this is after saying he's not fit... Today 11 men on the park looking for a bit of a spark to bring the game to life he's kept on the bench. If he as the manger is clueless as to how he is going to best use the subs tactics etc., what chance have the players got. Subs are supposed to be used to change a game or tactics when required, fair play to Hardie coming on but he is no where near being good enough to change a game and Kranjkar is simply no where near fit enough.. Guys like Lovenkrands & Johansen who played under proper football coaches must be shaking there head in disbelief at what's going on. That was a must win game today and went down with a whimper..

harlands plater 16,933 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 We're in no financial position to gamble on players who have a patchy record in the hope we strike it lucky. You say the same about managers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Maybe we are being used as a Trojan Horse. Pedro and his other coaching amigos arrive. They persuade King to shell out on Pena, Hererra, Morelos, Dalcio, Alves, Cardoso and Candeias. Work permits are obtained for those who needed them in order to play in the UK. They fuck about for a bit of a season seeing what they can do in the backwater of Scottish football but protecting the more expensive buys - Hererra and Pena - from too much hacking by other SPFL sides. Then........if its not really working out..........Pedro and his coaches press the button to get off the Ibrox bus (Warburton shown them how its done) and they jump ship to some English Championship side or maybe a side in the lower part of the EPL when they sack their manager and hit the panic 'change needed' button. And following them out in due course for bargain fees go the foreign imports having obtained their work permits and got some playing time to acclimatise a bit to the British game. They then go on and score a ton of goals down South and Pedro becomes some sort of managerial genius. Nah. That'd never be the case. Too conspiratorial. A line of thinking resulting from too much of that Madeira wine stuff after games like today and last week. That kind of thinking happens though when you see how far short of the mark Pedro is.

Boaby Bear 411 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I honestly think we could sign Messi or Ronaldo at the minute and somehow manage to make them look pish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven33jackie 1,882 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 He is certainly not a 30 / 40 games a season man, just checked his stats season 14/15 a total of 33 games all comps. Since then low twenties each season, seriously think its another waste of money for the media to keep reminding us of, considering that he is rumoured to of cost over 2 million.

BlueMexican 204 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I usually like to give new signings time and maybe 8/9 games to start judging. However, I knew after one half that Herrera and Dalcio were mince and never going to do the job. You just knew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenerife Bear 1,748 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I did warn about him last month but was lambasted. People at the club knew he was miles away from being ready. People at the club still know he is far from ready. What a waste of money. With the money we wasted on him we could have got someone able to play in our vital Euro qualifiers. Someone able to play in our team right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Pena's weight and attitude reminds of Basile Boli. I remember stories at the time with Boli, staying at the Cameron House and ordering fish suppers, burgers and pints every night from room service. He didn't last long, and doubt Pena will too.

You just don't spend £2-3m (or whatever it was) on someone unfit who can't hit the ground running for a team needing to close an horrendous gap with their main rivals or someone who can't speak the language. Clearly doesn't fit in with the team at all. Will be transferred for an undisclosed fee back home in January. I know, this is it. On what planet did they think picking him as manager was going to work? Absolute lunacy. And most folk could see it coming too.... The story wrote itself months ago, really before he was confirmed as manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting lambasted for stating the obvious seems to be the RM way for many of the peace and love brigade on here. Couldn't believe there were folk on here giving this dud the benefit of the doubt after Luxembourg, hoodwinked after a couple of friendlies against half fit mediocre English championship sides and all of a sudden everything was rosy again!! They are still at it, the last desperate arguments accusing fans who dare criticise Pedro as being "surrender monkeys" and accusing fans who want him out as wanting the side to lose. Sad people, who will be calling for his head themselves next month no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
