Legend_in_blue Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May He's still unproven and his record last season was mixed when the level of football was poor for the most part. Huge risk in leaving imo, if he repeats his failures there, he will be looking to get back with Pep before Christmas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best things about coming top and getting promoted as we did is the confidence it carries over to the next season. We've lost all that. We scraped the league especially in the period after Christmas, chucked in some really stinking performances, bad substitutions or none at all, not adaptability or Plan B. It's not all doom and gloom, we should of walked last season with the squad we had and the competition around us - doesn't make Enzo special. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not all doom and gloom, we should of walked last season with the squad we had and the competition around us - doesn't make Enzo special. Just list all the cliches if it makes you feel better. We didn't scrape anything, and even with an on the beach performance on the last day we were 7 points (plus goal difference) points clear of the playoffs. The Championship is a grind, as all the teams in the top 6 found out as everyone stopped winning every week. It was proven that clear heads and not panicking was needed. 97 points, and people behave like we scraped through the playoffs after coming 6th. Lots of this good work has been lost now. The next appointment is key. In the grand scheme of things our manager (and his team) has now been elevated to a top 6 position, and we are unsure if we can even hire for Championship managers who didn't cut it in the playoffs. Its not doom and gloom, but in my opinion we are in a far worse position than we were 2 weeks ago. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Md9 Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May I like the way it’s a 5 year contract with an option of another year when in reality he isn’t likely to make it to 2 years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely sacking is the understood end game with this appointment? It's just a matter of how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get why you just don’t offer managers 1 year with an option if you are doing well can’t see how offering 5 years to any one is a good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but we had the best championship squad in the history of the game and if Enzo was any good and tactically knew what he was doing we would have won every game 3-0 without conceding all season.😂😂😂 My unborn child could have got that squad promoted, he's a ****ing fraud. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May Notice how once again the PR machine from Chelsea in full action about the 'long term' etc after 2 or so managers having lasted less than a year or year and a half each. Wouldn't shock me if Enzo's contract has clauses for easy removal rather than it being a flat out 5 year contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got results against decent West Brom and Norwich sides, spanked the play off winners 5 nil and dispatched Preston with half the players still pi55ed. Lots of momentum there. Love your take that just going low block wins us games like Chelsea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxin_Mad Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May Just now, Chelmofox said: Love your take that just going low block wins us games like Chelsea. It does with Maresca in charge. Every single team that employed that tactic last year beat us. Hull, Boro, Boro, Blackburn, Millwall, Plymouth, QPR, Bristol. It looked too easy for them all. Momentum is now made by a good preseason. We need now the right manager in and shrude additions. I wouldn't have minded Enzo staying, I actually felt his style was more likely to get results against mediocre prem clubs than in did in the Championship. But now we move on, we will compete.

Just conveniently forget the teams we beat playing low block. And great to make out it’s some sort of problem only we face. Leeds suffered the same, and I saw Liverpool struggling at times with low block. Man U pretty much lowblocked the FA cup final. Agree preseason important. Need to be getting the team together yesterday and preparing right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paninistickers Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May Just a general comment. Players don't really give a shit about managerial, or player, transfers. They'll be fine. It's a selfish business is football. The likes of Winks, KDH, Vesty etc al, who've all benefitted under Enzo, won't bat an eyelid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
