lcfcben76 Posted 18 May 2017 Share Posted 18 May 2017 Yes, this is silly now. Before today we all couldn't sing his praises enough. He gave it ago for Christ sake against the best team I've ever seen play tbh they were sensational, and extremely well drilled by a class manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKFox Posted 18 May 2017 Share Posted 18 May 2017 I would like the job to be given to him, if not Silva from Hull would do well. I would not like a mancini or hiddink etc, Silva or Howe I would like if not Shakespeare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch Posted 18 May 2017 Share Posted 18 May 2017 I don't understand the Silva suggestion. We have a guy who took us from the relegation zone to a mid table finish and people want to replace him with a guy who took Hull from the relegation zone to.... Relegation. My call would be to give Shakey the job. He's earned it. Let's not forget, he was part of the title winning team too and he hasn't exactly done a bad job since taking over. Only spurs have a better points to game ratio than we do under Shakey... What more do people want from him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom27111 Posted 18 May 2017 Author Share Posted 18 May 2017 I honestly didn't think that many would answer no. I've said no, who we bring in, I'm not sure. After winning the league, showing ambition and having a load of cash to spend I think the owners can sell the idea of a great project, so we can bring in a big name. Tuchel looks set to leave Dortmund, so why not? Make a statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No argument here but when Silva took that job, he must have believed that he could be better than three other teams in that league, otherwise I don't see him taking it. He was wrong though so would you appoint that guy to take us to a mid table finish or higher next year, over a guy who already has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You give him the merit for our title win (because he was part of the team), but you don't blame him for our poor performances in this season. That doesn't make sense. Either he had influence on the way we were playing, or he hadn't. You can't have it both ways. If he deserves part of the merit for last season, than he also deserves part of the blame for the first part of this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom27111 Posted 18 May 2017 Author Share Posted 18 May 2017 Silva has good pedigree. Ok, there's not much competition in Greece, but he managed to take a team to Arsenal and win. Something we haven't done since to early seventies! I'm not convinced though. Maybe Mancini or Pelligrini. Ideally, Bielsa. But he's already agreed a contract elsewhere. Although he does have previous for walking out on an agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What i said was that his involvement last year earned him an oppertunity to save us from our mess this year, which he has taken and done well.

Strokes Posted 18 May 2017 Share Posted 18 May 2017 It really depends on our aspirations for next season, I think CS would be a steady manager who would give us enough to avoid relegation and sit in mid table but not much more. A new manager, well it could go any which way. He hasn't done great against the big teams and has shown a lot of naivety and negativity in those matches. The jury is still out for me.

The worry with appointing CS is having the players get too comfortable again dictating too much, everything was going the players way since his arrival (good performances and lots of credit). What happens now after this drubbing? Extra training?> Chicken burgers back off the menu? We will see if they bounce back on sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
