Camshy 812 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 He is a dick taking the job in the first place. That team is proper shit, who cares if its the EPL and all that jazz. Only a greedy fucker would join a club going no where except down....if it aint this season it will be one not too far away. Bad career choice.

TMB 14,167 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Well, if Pedro gets the chop from us we could still offer DeBoer a crack at it. The next Old Firm is just a couple weeks away and if we get pumped again the Pedro out movement will be back in full swing. The timing of this could work in our favour. Having said all that, are we after another football purist manager, or someone more like McInnes or McLeish? It'll be interesting to see how things work out. In the meantime I'll continue to root for Pedro and hope to fuck he delivers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McInnes knows the shite in this league, and with our budget and pull he would do very well. McLeish knows the league as it was 11 years ago. He'll definitely be out of touch with the current modern game. Regardless of that, I really want Pedro to succeed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if it was on Football Weekly or the new podcast James Richardson is doing but he pretty much said that he suspected that it won't work for him at Palace because people had told him that de Boer is so ingrained in the Ajax culture and way of doing things that he will struggle to adapt to anything that isn't that.

stewaj3 1,444 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Flopped at inter too. Maybe he was just Ajax manager at the right time and it worked. You look at palace and what he'd have had to work with here and I just can't see it ever having worked. If he thought he could turn a Sam allardyce team into a stylish team, he misjudged it. Palace were never going to give him 6 months to bed in. De Boer would have been better going for a better team in the EPL or even dropping into the championship, where he could have a bit more time to build a team. If he gets sacked, I reckon he will end up back in holland somewhere. Took Ronald koeman a bit of time to make his name as a manager maybe de Boer is going to be the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different era, bears no resemblance to the money driven mad EPL now, even the shite teams get megabucks now and because of that the chairman/board/fans expect instant success. Ferguson would have been sacked after no time at all if he started the same way nowadays. The lifespan (of employment)of a manager in England is shockingly short.

MrMckee 3,397 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Probably not the popular opinion on here but there is absolutely nothing to suggest he is any better than Pedro. Both well respected in their own countries but done nothing yet outside of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
