There would be a queue round the block to take job on. Our ability to choose right one is the issue. I honestly don't think so. A club with a grand history of winning and a fanbase who expect that to be honoured, but absolutely no structure, leadership or finances in place to deliver it. We're a poisoned chalice.

Probably because no-one at club has a single clue what they are doing. We went to Souness for advice the last time ffs AGM_72 and CR3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrupsleftfoot 12,396 Posted Friday at 12:09 Share Posted Friday at 12:09 We seem too reliant on individuals rather than as a collective. So yes with a better striker and say someone like Whitaker on one wing and Sima on the other we’d instantly be better, and behind the scenes he’ll probably point to this being about improving the quality over the next 2-3 windows. But we need to be better coached to be punching above our weight as a team. Amokachi and The Archer 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can’t be denied but there will be dozens of managers who would take on our job as a challenge. Football managers are a different breed to normal jobs.

For me he has to win the LC or if it’s not celtic in the final has to win that then win the next OF, whilst matching their league results.

Boybluesy 4,075 Posted Friday at 12:55 Share Posted Friday at 12:55 We will remember that Walter went with 3 centre backs against Man U. He knew our limitations at the time against quality opposition. It is just shite starting Tav and bringing on Dowell. Lawrence doesn't have the legs for this type of game either. Much of this is on Clement. RWB72 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueKnight87 17,917 Posted Friday at 13:02 Share Posted Friday at 13:02 I don't think he'll be sacked soon. The board made sure of that with a new deal. Besides we've seen this story before only when the league is all but gone will it even be considered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try ride it out but when the Ire turns to them they will use him as a scapegoat. In that time we need a CEO and some sort of DOF/Sporting director brought in.

CR3 12,881 Posted Friday at 14:01 Share Posted Friday at 14:01 Don’t want to join a pile-on after a game we were unlikely to win but he’s looking quite tactically inept and making baffling subs added to not making total sense in some pressers now.

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,502 Posted Friday at 14:13 Share Posted Friday at 14:13 Slightly off topic but CBS had Guillem Balague on before the Villa game the other night and they asked him about Emery coming back to England being sacked by Arsenal, he said Emery told the owner of Villa he wanted control of everything basically and the owner let him, director of football and backroom staff are all his own guys. That's the kind of manager we need bit like when Gerrard came in, yes we did fuck up certain games but you could tell the standards drastically lifted when he arrived, they have declined ever since he left. billscott 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emery’s probably one of the best managers in Europe though. Isn’t this near enough what we eventually gave Beale? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
