I just haven't been shiting myself in the last 10 minutes of a game , as bad as previously when we were maybe hanging on to a goal lead . Again it was another Goldson mistake by letting the ball bounce over him, when he could easily clear it. gmcf 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He switched things at the back very early and got Lundstram off at half time. Aribo clearly made a difference later but I think had he waited until the 70th minute to make all these changes things could have been different. His in game management is different class. Not had a manager since Walter who knows how to change a game tactically. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to add. I'm not great on tactics like others might be, but he also seems to be good at tweaking and making changes to get a result and make things happen. Regardless, it's a knockout performance so far from the gaffer, very happy he is here. Agree with all that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakbear 3,586 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Am I right in thinking we were linked with GVB between Caixinha and Gerrard? I just wonder how different things might have been if we had appointed him sooner. Gerrard raised our profile again, returned our high standards and expectations. Made us into winners again. But. And it’s a massive but. We underachieved domestically during his reign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart1994 4,303 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Night and day compared to the start of the season, some of the passing and movement off the ball has been terrific, that was something we were doing really well last season.

That’s what I intended by saying “massive but” my intention was that it is a massive negative to contrast the positives. Maybe I used it incorrectly.

He lacks the imagination and tactical insight that great managers have. He has a sky high profile that will attract good players to any club and he has a level of expectation and professionalism that he has learned at Liverpool both of which we sorely needed. But he's not a top manager, not even close. They Gnu 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's not a top manager, not even close. He was a rookie with us, so time is somewhat on his side. The problem I forsee is that he didn't appear to learn from mistakes too easliy. His refusal to change tactics against low block opponents was baffling at times. Like for like subsitutions seemed made more in hope than intent. He's got different problems at Villa and a mid table finish will be seen as ok in his first season. Once he's spent in a couple of transfer windows though, the expectation will ramp up massively and that's when we see if has learnt anything from his time with us.

southcoastbear 1,639 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 I think the Mhedia falling over themselves in fullsome praise of Flange whilst his players appear to be coming down with injuries which may be attributed to his training methods or not. It does seem apt that a hamstring appears to be the most prevalent injury given the history of the BJK camp. At the same time their clearly grudging approval of the great start our new manager has made only goes to highlight the bias, bitterness and general small mindedness of the Scottish mhedia in general Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we didn't expect anything less from the media in this backwater of a country but he has been a terrific appointment thus far. I’m glad he’s not. With Gerrard it was all about him, which goes with his star power, but the way that GVB is just quietly going about his job suits us down to the ground JackAlex93, MayboleLoyal_atb and BridgeIsBlue 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
