Feyenoord were shite at the start of the season and has stepped in, made them hard to beat and seems to be getting the best out of them considering their squad isn't close to that of PSV/Ajax. Personally we need a streetwise manager like DA who could just step in, get the best out of what he has and also knows how to win trophies. I think for the most part Gerrard has largely improved us but I just cant see us maintaining good form for a season under him, we've burned out by January two years running. That’s what I think too. If we are going to overhaul that lot I think we need a manager who is wily and has become good at maximising resources through experience and your best bet for that is getting somebody who has experience and has been around the block a bit. More and more of these coaches and managers coming through seem to encourage playing football the same way and in the same style and I think part of the reason for that is that they all have to go through the same coaching courses, tests and licences and it just churns out a load of similar managers. All the paperwork and studying in the world is not a substitute for the experience that some older managers have gained through going out there and learning on the job as they have went and I think that’s what we need just now.

bluenoz 30,689 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 First of all, Gerrard would have to voluntary step down because we couldn't afford to pay him out. He is not motivated by money so if he thought the time was right, I'm sure it could easily be reached by mutual agreement. Van Bronckhurst sounds nice but it is not realistic. He just moved to China and must be on silly money. Apart from that, once again, I'm not seeing many suggestions. The one thing I would like to see happen effective immediately is for Kevin Thomson to be promoted to the first team coaching staff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need someone that’s experienced and can make an instant impact imo we need someone who understands Scottish football who will bring in players who can handle the physical side of the football here not the wimps and Nancy boys signed by warburton and gerrard until that happens we will go nowhere it might not be pretty to watch but at the end of the day it is all about results Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Barton who was vilified for calling Warburton out for being a shite manager then chased out the club? Laughably, when we were getting scudded 4-0 and 5-0 under Pedro and Murty people on here were demanding more passion and fight from the players in the dressing room. We go from one extreme to another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If SG has run out of ideas, lost the players somehow, then what options are there? Personally I don't think *anyone* could come in and do any better then he's done, but, I could be wrong. Whatever has happened in Dubai has thrown the entire team off the rails. I despair I really do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,281 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Gerrard is only leaving if he decides to walk. Board don't have the funds to sack him. If a new manager is needed, we're turning to ross wilson to sort out. DOF is meant to be in place to oversee these changes if required. For me we really need an experienced manager. Ideally someone with a lot of tactical knowledge, man management skills and if available some silverware on their CV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,689 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I really thought Gerrard would have gotten the better of Lennon for when the chips are down that cunt implodes. Sadly, I was wrong, experience is everything in that role. However, I'm stumped as to who the next manager should be. Scottish? Foreign? I think we may have to endure Gerrard for one more season and I'm not so sure it is a bad thing. It just appears that way right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish football has more long balls than most leagues, including England. So the high press is less effective when the oppositions first pass is a punt in to our penalty area. The game in Scotland is also refereed differently than other places and is generally more physical. Gerrard has brought in a lot of technical players which is most probably the reason we’re doing so well in Europe. While physicality and technical ability aren’t mutually exclusive finding guys who are the complete package isn’t easy, or cheap. Rangers can move towards a more physical and direct brand of football but it would be removed from the more modern approach everyone else in Europe is taking. I agree we need more physicality. A big commanding CF would be a start. But, we shouldn’t write off everything we’ve worked towards until now either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
