Big Sam? He's not won anything, his stock work is keeping scufflers up with some old fashioned "hard work" football.
Some foreign managers are good and some of them are poor.
Pretty good record of getting them relegated too
But I guess it's fair to give him a chance with sides he's brought up.His points total with Everton had him 6th IIRC. How is that dreadful with that Everton side?
That just isn’t true though is it. Eddie Howe, Frank Lampard, Graham Potter to name a few don’t play that style.
I'll give you Eddie Howe but how are you seriously talking about Lampard who hasn't even had one half of a season under his belt.
You can always make a case with stats.
And you're almost comically critical of them. Swings and roundabouts.
Bit early to be lauding Lampard isn't it? About 10 games in? Do you watch them?
Comically yeah, they have been very successful all around aren't they ?
They have not been among the elite recently but to claim a manager with Bruce’s record as being rubbish and implying that he only gets jobs because of his nationality is complete nonsense.
Everton fans were loathing Sam and calling for him to be sacked. Why are you considering his period there good when their own fans were slaughtering him on their forum every week ?
Because they have delusions of grandeur and think that Silva is going to get them into the top 6 playing champagne football.
I have watched them a few times yes. It’s clear that he is trying to play a high pressing front front style.
He played well last night...at CB.
He keeps getting them promoted.
How has Sawiris been doing so far btw ?
Already said that, doesn't mean they are terrible though, unless you're measuring them against the top top managers which you seem to be. Saying all English managers are terrible is a daft comment.
Which English manager will you give him a job at a top 10 club,and focus on top 10, not top 4.
Pretty much.
Isn't good enough for what? You said all English managers are terrible. All. Every single one. It's like me saying all Egyptian posters make sweeping statements.Which English manager will you give him a job at a top 10 club,and focus on top 10, not top 4.
Howe ? Southgate ? Other suggestions ? 2 out of many managers isn't good enough.
Bournemouth are 6th or 7th in the league, could be this season's Burnley.Which English manager will you give him a job at a top 10 club,and focus on top 10, not top 4.
Howe ? Southgate ? Other suggestions ? 2 out of many managers isn't good enough.
Ok, 99% of them are terrible. Does that make it accurate now ?
Too early to judge really until they start making big decisions starting from today.How has Sawiris been doing so far btw ?
It's a little bit better yes
Ok. I'm not following much so every once in a while when this thread is up I'll ask for an update.
Well he hasn't put up a Michael Jackson statue outside the ground or requested to change our name to Aston Villa Lions yet so will say when he has.Ok. I'm not following much so every once in a while when this thread is up I'll ask for an update.
He's a terrible example. He's a perfect example of why they deserve to get the jobs. He's managing a PL club because he somehow got a poor Cardiff side promoted. Why would he not get job offers when he's managing to do that?
You mean "context" not contest and you erroneously used "extinct" to describe something that -by definition if it is still being played- can't be, so that's your adjectives and your nouns that both need work. And saying "99% of them are terrible" is no mollyfying climbdown either. Obvious blatant dickery.
During his time we signed:
He signs a fe expensive players. Wasn’t Hogan £8m? Not sure if he signed McCormack.
Yeah it's another sh!t or bust season, luckily for you FFP is a joke and at worse it will be a fine the new owner can probably afford...
Thanks Mr. English language protector.
Imagine interpreting criticism to English managers as attacking the whole country and its people. That's a new level.
He brought in 43m spending 22m.
RDM signed McC. Yes he did sign Hogan. Hourihane and Hogan were the only players he signed that cost more than 3m which in modern money is peanuts. He spent 22m took in 43m
Not sure on that tbh. There's talk our neighbours will be getting a big points deduction although they were a little different in that they actually signed a player when they were specifically told not to!
At premier league level it's peanuts. At championship level it's a fortune. A team like Leeds hardly signed anyone this summer and they're way ahead of us already.
