Wycombe Fox Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 Too much work time wasted lately watching for news on Transfer Deadline Day, then waiting to see if we had Silva, then the appeal result and now looking out to see who our new manager is. I never expected us to win the league again but I expected us to take the opportunity to at least consolidate an upper mid-table finish for a few years. Sadly we've missed that opportunity and seem to be a shambles. All aboard the rollercoaster lads and lasses. Come on you Foxes!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned out then that what we needed was very much "another Pearson", or THE Pearson as it were. I was previously very much for Dyche, I felt he fit the club perfectly. But having witnessed the attitude on here the last year or so I'm just not sure now because he just won't be given time. Those pointing to Burnely's results every five minutes this season will be the ones moaning about the shit football and creating a toxic atmosphere again if he was doing it here. After Sven, we had names but not much quality - we have a good squad with some very decent players. It’s not the same thing babs though the dressing room clearly needs to be addressed - what was once our core strength has perhaps become our big problem now ..........

We’re not that big a step up from even the likes of Burnley when we look how we do right now. It’ll be a choice of Allardyce, Padrew, Moyes, Coleman, Redknapp, maybe Giggs, maybe Lennon etc etc Please god make this not be completely painful I'm pretty sure we wouldn't be interested in any of these clowns ( ok fat Sam is less of a clown than the others but still no) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 Aaaaaarrrggghhh I can't work out whether Dyche would be a good appointment. What he's done at Burnley is admirable and he'll be around at this level for a while I think but what is it we actually want from a manager. He's got to be comfortable with dealing with some fairly big name players, his recruitment at Burnley shows a distinct lack of flair as well. But then again he understands how to harness a proper team and way of playing. Hmmmmmmm not sure. Certainly rather have him than Allardyce or Pardew but in reality I want someone who's got a bit more class and who might be able to persuade the owners to buy in to their vision and make some changes to poltis's like Rudkin.

We need a strong character with experience that knows what's needed in the Premier league. This isn't a time for a risky appointment that could unsettle everything (especially the changing room) further. We need stability and know how to calm everything down & control this whole situation or else it could spiral out of control. It might be an unpopular decision with some fans but for me Big Sam is whats needed. It's a no risk appointment with proven record & can be trusted to sort this mess out Fat Sam is not what we need. He is a total arsehole;its all about him and his ego; shit football in the round. Shakey maybe would have kept us up, so I’m hoping the owners want a bit more than that. Im not bothered about top 7 or whatever; what I want is someone to fashion / regain our play to go back to be the high tempo aggressive, and as a result entertaining style. Having suffered watching utter horse shit served up this season I’ve realised what I want from football is excitement. Survival and being entertained would do me this season now. From the list of candidates though, I’m not sure who can deliver what I’m looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He starts out defensive as where he walks in usually has a woeful defence and he believes in building from that. I don't think we have that issue really. We just need the right shape and right ideas and someone who can get confidence in players. Palace started playing some decent stuff after the initial shit start.

Is the squad as good as people make out? Virtually every signing has flopped for one reason or another. People slated CS for not picking Iheanacho and Iborra and neither has really done anything to warrant that faith, as an example. It's not as extreme as the Sven / Pearson time, but it's a similar dismantling of a decent squad with "names" of not the required quality we are going trough.

Trouble is, with Vardy in the team (and he's deemed undroppable) we only have one way of playing, which doesn't necessarily play to their strengths. It's heresy, but maybe we have to look to a future without Vardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norwichfox Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 I don't want to see Sean Dyche anywhere near our club I had read somewhere yesterday that Shakespeare was on £3 million P.A. That would make Dyche feel a top man to be paid only 2/3 of the wage of the bloke we've just sacked and hopefully would keep him at Burnley. I expect to see this thread at 100 pages by the weekend and the word Preki mentioned no less than forty seven times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricey Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 I can't stand Dyche. His arrogance and lack of humility infuriates me. Having said that, I've met him in person, in a situation where others may have been rude or dismissive, and he seemed ok. My concern is his style of football. It's not far off what Tony Pulis does. Dyche will claim that's because of the lack of pound notes at Burnley, but I think Eddie Howe is proof that lack of finance at a small club in the Premier League doesn't have to equate to defensive football. Do we want a manager that is merely going to organise us and keep us up consistently? Is that going to inject some life into what has become a deflated and flat fan base? No. It won't. We don't expect to achieve great things again, but we need a manager that at least makes us believe there is a chance. After winning the league, appointing a Dyche or an Allardyce isn't going to reinvigorate this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 Brendan Rodgers is within our reach. We will ship in shed load of goals but we will score a lot as well and finish anywhere between 7th and 13th. We will double his wages and he will get a decent PL club. Not much else he can do at Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted 18 October 2017 Share Posted 18 October 2017 Sam Allardyce is gonna be live in the talksport studio at 10am. I don’t expect him to say anything concrete either way but I do expect him to distance himself and reiterate he wants to stay retired. Expect his odds to drift out after 10am.

I don't believe we can only play one way with him, I've seen us play different ways with him the team, just not consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
