Next manager discussion (poll reset 21/05/2016)

[Billy Dean]

Weekend, pfft, can't you bring it forward?

sorry mert

 

[Goat]

Are you crazy for Cocu?

This club of clowns should know better than to ignore me this time.

They ignored me 3 years ago and we wasted those 3 years.

It hurts me Mikey, it hurts that they pass up my knowledge.

 

[Goat]

You only have to look at the strength of it and what is coming through it. He put people in the right place to manage it and you cannot fault Martinez for this because he paid a lot of attention to it. Players were beginning to feature, players were gaining experience on loan, some players have been unfortunate with injuries, it is going somewhere under the right manager

Poppycock.

He treated it with the same contempt Moyes did.

 

[EvertonRhys]

I get your point about comparisons to City but he has been at much bigger clubs than Southampton and last won a major trophy in 2008, in what you seem to deem weaker leagues.

Do see that he hasn't won silverware for some time. Did surprise me to see it had actually been that long mind. I don't know enough about the individual circumstances at the clubs he has been at previously, so will leave that for others. As I've said, I'm not really arguing the point of capability, just that it shouldn't be a case of 'go for the bloke at the better club'. Maybe I delved too much in trying to defend Koeman- not my original intention!

Yet you no longer sit on the Vitor bandwagon..........

Vitor was the right choice 3 years ago, hes the wrong choice now, we are a different club, a new era, we need a man who not only wins, but doesnt sulk and wins with style, there is only 1 man for that job and his name is Phillip Cocu.

Poppycock.

Not at all. Even Sheedy said Moyes didn't care. You only have to look at his treatment of Ross.

 

[The Esk]

I've asked esk twice mate and recieved no answer, make of that what you will.

Sorry what have you asked me?

Dunno, it took Pellegrini 10 clubs before he got Real Madrid, Koeman is on 9.

But peligrini still got a top job after real Madrid and also did better at lower clubs.

 

[Slippin Jimmy]

How did Rogers beat him . The team he was a managing couldn't close it out. Lost to a Chelsea reserves and threw a 3 goal lead at palace. When martinez was doin that here it was all the managers so why wasn't it Rogers fault then.

That's what I'm saying, it was Rodgers fault city won the league coz Liverpool threw it away, liverpool beat city in the run in, Pellegrini is major tosh.

Now you're just being silly

He played Barkley more for a start

Remember Sunderland away in 2013 mate?

I do, I trekked all the way up there for it

Barkley coming off his great performance against Arsenal, dropped to the bench

Remember the Anfield Derby that year mate?

I do, Barkley wasn't even on the bench

Martinez may have failed in a number of ways, but his attitude to young players was miles ahead of Sgt Major Moyes

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Vitor was the right choice 3 years ago, hes the wrong choice now, we are a different club, a new era, we need a man who not only wins, but doesnt sulk and wins with style, there is only 1 man for that job and his name is Joachim Loew.

Corrected that for you mate

 

[neil999]

Speechless that the clowns in charge still havent spoken to Cocu.

just do a tactical breakdown anyway mate

 

[The Esk]

Hmmmm - Koeman looking more and more like a pipe dream at this stage

The whole interview was designed to give the impression that things were going great however there was nothing definitive nor any quotes from Koeman's side, nor since.

It was at best, a fairly weak holding statement.

 

[blue to the bone]

That's what I'm saying, it was Rodgers fault city won the league coz Liverpool threw it away, liverpool beat city in the run in, Pellegrini is major tosh.

Okay mate. That's your opinion.
OK if I do not agree
