lush Posted 21 November 2005 Share Posted 21 November 2005 Hearing the latest Interveiw on the OS, he`s certainly not in a panicked frame of mind. He spoke with a smile, and with his latest blockbuster quote "i cant afford to throw the baby out the bath water", showed me that theres a positive approach going on. He topped that by saying hes "very confident that were heading in the right direction". He was asked about having a serious look at sheehan or gilbert for LB, he said "we`ll have look at everything at LB, they`ll certainly be a change there". So quite possibly sheehan may start v watford. He was asked about the forthcoming strong opposition, and he said "its about us", which is exactly the reply i`d wana hear. He said about going forward that "we need to be a bit more braver". He also talked about hume n hammond possibly starting upfront, but also about bringing in another striker, although that may not happen until january. Apparently we had 65% of the play on saturday, so to those that voted him out, give him the benefit of the doubt for atleast these next 2 games.

I'll be right behind him if he acts as he speaks, plays with attacking defenders and picks our best players. If those players prove inadequate then he's got to strengthen the squad but he can do no more than pick our strongest all-round side and try to play to the strengths of those players. That'll do for me. Like I say, its first of all about putting a football team together. Then comes the tuning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 21 November 2005 Share Posted 21 November 2005 If he acts as he say he will then fair play. Trouble is, with CL it's usually empty words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i did fear about your first point, but thought it best we rally along with a positive outlook craig seems to be showing. IF sheehan plays, we cannot argue, and if we play players with the quote gary birtles made earlier "birch, what do teams fear the most?, pace" we have a REAL chance.

lush Posted 22 November 2005 Author Share Posted 22 November 2005 Last night on the phone-in, a city fan said nisse played ok, and the commentators agreed. We all know its not nisse`s prefered position, but CRAIG put him there. Was craig making a case for sheehan, by taking him off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be backed up on the pitch though im afraid. He's done enough talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 22 November 2005 Share Posted 22 November 2005 His best interview for a long while, I remember when he first arrived and it was a breath of fresh air to hear and read his interviews. We all thought he was honest and positive especially compared to Micky Adams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lush Posted 22 November 2005 Author Share Posted 22 November 2005 knowing CL I think he'll go and put Gilbert there tonight ... what a shame that would be Well he said yesterday that hes not bothered about the strength of the opposition, so if he knows what we know...as pablo mentions too. Ric, i dont think managers are too different in tut media. If hes just trying to "woo" us without talking honesty, then its a problem, but i tend to think he thinks he knows whats going on. Words like proof and pudding spring to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
