They will put up with his shit for a raise. Also being in the prem, they dont care about the club or us sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 2 April 2023 Share Posted 2 April 2023 Twelve PL managers sacked this season so far which tends to suggest managers are useless. As I have said a one year rolling contract only , we don't want to get trapped again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is we? Something you need to tell us? Are you someone that needs to hide? Or just guessing, if so why was this shit state allowed. I had every respect for you as an honest poster on here.

Weird but the late timing of this still isn't as bad as having left it any longer and we still have a favourable 'ish' run in and 10 games left to save ourselves - and are presently only a point from safety - not 10!

Hardly a good season 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having a go as I thought the same at first but then questioned if it is even a done thing elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jim5000 Posted 2 April 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 2 April 2023 8 hours ago, Matt said: Some media rationality! I think 'best managers' is not correct. He has been manager while we have been at our highest level, but much of that was build on what went before him. In terms of recent managers, or managers in the 'modern era', O'Neil took a Championship club to PL top 10 and won two cups, Pearson took a League one club and established them in the Premier League, Ranieri took relegation candidates and won the Premier League, and Puel renovated a team and installed the foundations for a few seasons in the top half. Rodgers won a cup, but he's the 3th manager in the last 20 years to do that for us, 4th if you include promotions. Other than that, he blew two Champions League qualifications, completely flopped us out of the UEFA cup, has seen the club decline from 5th to 19th, and has left a bloated, overpayed, poorly performing, directionless, unmotivated squad that is completely unsuited for life in the Premier League or the Championship. He came in when we were at our apex, and has guided us back down to yo-yo club status. I would hardly call that 'one of our best managers'. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my time Brian Little is ahead of him for the 3 seasons of consistency. Slightly tainted by the walkout but still very much in credit and fondly remembered overall. Claudio and Rodgers had the success on very good foundations but figuring out the puzzle by themselves was the rock they perished on. Claude was the opposite in that he did a lot of the rebuilding but couldn't reflect it in performances. The initial success in tough circumstances and being able to ride out the storms sets O'Neill and Pearson apart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revisionist nonsense, we didn’t just ‘win a cup’ and finishing 5th twice isn’t ‘blowing champions league’ qualification. By any objective yardstick he was one of our best managers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Ranieri more successful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
