Cicero 5,267 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Doubt the board will give him till November given everything they've done to get secure him He's a yes man, and a coach first. He told Marina he doesn't care about the transfer market given his main ambition in football is to train players. That literally is music to our board's ears.

We are already starting to think Zola is an appointment to appease those of us think this is a wrong manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carefreeluke 722 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Very excited about Sarri to be honest, even if there's some things about his personality that I may take a disliking to as the season unfolds. Very excited because of the style of football as that's what I'm an advocate of and I'm willing to give him a lot of time to embed his ideas. I praise the club for the new direction. At the same time because of his style, this has even more potential to go tits up and it's a bigger risk than having someone like Conte or Mourinho for example. Zola is a good appointment as I think he will work well to steady the ship and help get the players on Sarri's side however AVB also brought in Di Matteo as a number two when he became manager so this is not always a guarantee. On a random note, I could write a small book on AVB's problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Wonder if Odoi or Musonda will be given a proper chance this season, given our lack of options at the wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Liquidator 259 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 If Thibaut Courtois leaves for Madrid to be with his family: then his abilities will be missed. Just as when Big Pete left for the Gooners to play first team football: and his abilities, character, personality, leadership, & intelligence were all greatly missed. Coming home? Should never have been allowed to leave. ~ Another poor Jose decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It not being right to let him sit on your bench when he could get first team football elsewhere. Kind of like United allowing Phil Neville and Nicky Butt to leave to get first team football when they could have been decent squad players. Sometimes you have to realise what a player has done for you and give them a break if they want to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman in fact was the one who decided to let Cech go to Arsenal given his home is in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He chose TC for the season mainly because his contract was running out. That decision helped get TC to sign another contract, and Pete asked Roman if he could leave for another London club. We should have got tosspot to sign his contract and then sold him, when his stock was at its highest. For me the wrong keeper was allowed to go and that's down to Jose. He choose TC and didnt have the decency to explain to Pete why. Years on, there is a chance we will go back to Pete. Just illuminates how bad a choice it was.

Can never tell if you're being serious or trying to wind up given that I saw you mention in a thread a day or two back that you "correctly predicted" that Salah wouldn't improve Liverpool.
