Because he’s not - he’s very raw - he plays at Charlotte with another English youngster who has every much ability but is younger and raw too - Tyger. He has the potential to be a good player but time will tell…..better options in Europe or on loan !
-
It’s an interesting perspective - personally think he was absolutely clueless - never got to grip with the capabilities or lack of in some players and was tactically inept - never changed a game favourably and I still had no clue what his style or what he was trying to get us to do. Cooper was a weird appointment but at least he had a plan - it was rubbish but I could see he was trying to make us hard to beat and then steal points but RVN was completely rank and also never ever tried to warm or understand the fans or club generally. Give us someone with a bit of passion - Dyche for me is a no brainer because I think we need an NFP style and that’s SD - he has actually had more prem success than NFP yet fans on here are moaning!

You know I would take a direct focal point with pace flying from wide with more directness than this tippy tappy rubbish which we have no chance be of taking into the prem - Forest play hardly any decent football and barely have a midfielder fit to play football but they using pace have done okay - we need something that works and can be transferred into prem personally get two decent centre half’s who can defend and use Fatawu, Mavididi, Monga, Evans and Bilal if we can keep him with someone holding up and linking play - maybe not Carroll though 😂
-
Yes miles better at right back and I would play JJ at left back where he always seemed more comfortable - I doubt we get KWP as a newly promoted club will take him!
-
How does DR remind you of Pearson? I am not one of Nigel’s love child’s like many on here but I really don’t get all attraction to DR - what has actually achieved ……personally I would rather get someone who knows how to get out this division the right way via promotion. or someone who has an affinity to the club and certainly not someone who may see us as a stepping stone to bigger things ….
-
Be a massive statement and will be able to play at prem level easily……quality - not in a month of Sundays is he coming here 😂
-
I cannot believe that people think his championship record is good ? He had a relegated squad in saints who tbh should have gone up automatically and yet he squeaked the playoff win but other than that he has a bang average record …… I really do not get it and why the board think he is the man to take us up and build the future around I really do not get it - he is also a complete you know what …..sad and long days ahead

Victor Kristiansen (an option for Forest, Percy.)

We can agree he’s different ! In my case crap and yours misguided ! -

You mean like Junior Lewis quality in which case I agree - one half decent performance never made a player and VK isn’t! -
Says you living in the UK ! 😂😂

And a dog to match - makes it a bit more bearable wearing a blindfold !
-
It’s his ability with a football - just slightly edited but still don’t get what he is good at - if it’s fitness and desire we can all put a shirt on as it’s our club - another that has zero ability !

Ruud van Nistelrooy - New Manager - Official

Completely never got us from the moment he walked through the door and he has no chuffing idea - still doesn’t recognise our better players and picks the team playing bingo - arrogant bloke can do one and take at least half the team with him - hopefully he gets a job in Europe and comes back for half of them ! -

Did he ? I never saw it he’s absolutely pony and has been since he first joined - I have never seen a more flustered left back - he alway seems sweaty and panicky - absolute garbage with attitude - him, Faes and Soumare leaving could yet make this season have a highlight to finish !! -
No chance

I am not sure what the issue with Dyche was at Burnley or Everton other than keep them up ? Granted Moyes has done better this season but I would argue he is one of the best in the business ! Dyche should be in the running and if we want someone to get a team up and devise a way to stay up no matter how attractive then Dyche should be in the running as he is way better than Brussell or Rohl imo -
It has happened every time we have a change of manager names pop up that we all go no way and they have not appointed any of them except last year which was slightly different due to timing and impending points deduction...............................oh hang on........I like nearly all on here would give up if they appoint Brussell - anyone but that idiot - I would keep Ruud if that is the best they can do because at least he knows this shower and also he has not been passing it from the back quite like either Enzo or RM - not sure what he is doing but its not that !

I am not sure it is rigged but is certainly not providing a fair route for success for aspiring clubs to break in. We achieved more between 2016-2021 than any other non Big 6 is ever likely to achieve in the next 30 years and yet we were not able to exploit that position due to PSR challenges. Whilst we made poor decisions and did not help ourselves (also losing Vichai) I do think that football needs to find a way to remove the ceiling for the historical big 6 otherwise I think the game may become a closed shop. Palace winning and more like it is what is needed and although I would hate it probably Forest and Villa breaking in would challenge the big clubs but I cannot see how it is sustainable without huge investment which is not allowed under PSR.

Cannot see any of the promoted clubs bridging the gap unless any of the prem sides lose a manager - Fulham, CPFC, Forest, Fulham, Bournemouth all miles away from the newly promoted sides - plus Farke, Parker and Wilder are not in the same league imo - we need to use this season to not only go up but have growth within the players we use - I do think the year after maybe interesting as more likely some of the managers will move especially if some of the big 6-8 continue to drop off !!
-
With a brick inside the size 5 - this will probably be the saddest day as a fan for any player leaving - 50 years of following us and players come and go but this man is genuinely I believe the GOAT for our club ! I just hope we do not face him next season in the championship as that would be a damning reflection on our board - hopefully he is in the prem where he deserves to end his career or over in Yankee Doodle land !! Sunday is a going to be a tear jerker !

You might be disappointed ……it’s Sunday

Edit - plays with clogs on wrong feet !

I hope your right ronnup - he has very little tactical knowledge and I would like someone with a bit of passion……Dyche for me but I would imagine not a Top type of choice in manager -
You mean back to where we have never been before in our history until KP came along - you donut!! Yep they need a shake and we need a fresh approach but be very very careful what you wish for as whilst they have undoubtedly made mistakes in the last 5 years - they can put this right !!
