    Big Sam vs Eriksson,Toon choosed wrong or???

    in Football

    Posted

    They have had about the same time in the manager chair,but City is top 3 and we are closer to be religated then top 6,Why??,they both have bought in a lot of new players,but it looks like The Swede know how to do it and Sam dont have the clue.

     

    The awayform is very bad with both managers (1-2-3),but City is unbeaten at home (8-0-0).

     

    Manchester C  14 matches 29 points

     

    Newcastle   U  13 matches 18 points

     

    City has met all the top teams,but we have only met Pool.

     

    Anyway,we will never know,but if The Swede has been Toon Boss,were would we be today then????

     

    Any thoughts???

     

     

     

    The grammar I can forgive since you're Norwegian but the maths I can't.  "We are closer to relegation than top 6"  We currently lie 11th.  5 places from top 6.  Relegation is from 18th, 7 places from where we are.

     

    OK I think I see your point but you leave yourself open to correction by statements such as this.  And for what it's worth I'll wait until at least the end of the season before making my opinion.  I for one am trying to be patient with SA, Rome wasn't built in a day and I do still believe he'll turn it around.

     

    Way too soon for threads like this.

     

     

    I can't believe that people use such arguments, FFS! Don't tell us that we have to be satisfied with what we "achieved" so far...

    I haven't had much faith in SA before hired...but definitely more than now! Ericssons achievings are quite impressive so far..

     

    achievments? what would they be then?

     

     

     

    I bet you would call it achievments if the toon would be third in the league and if SA was named Manager of the month. I mean people on here say that SA has already achieved a lot...i wonder what that is.

     

    Not saying that Sven is world class, but  definitely better that SA.

     

     

    Newcastle’s Michael Owen, Not Only Injury Prone But Also A Blithering Idiot...

    Newcastle’s Michael Owen, Not Only Injury Prone But Also A Blithering Idiot.

    November 26, 2007

    Injury-prone Michael Owen might need his head checking as well as his dodgy knackered limbs. He told The Sun after the World Cup qualifying draw, in which England were again paired with Croatia, that:

     

    “I don’t think any of the Croatian team would get into our team. Doesn’t that tell you it’s not about ability or technique but in the mind. We have very demanding fans and a media who expect a great deal from the England team — and rightly so. How we, as players, cope with that is where the problem lies. I watched the Croatia game and so often it broke down purely because of pressure. It came down to the pressure of making a mistake when it mattered. If we’d won the games we should have, we wouldn’t have ended up putting that kind of pressure on ourselves. It was our own fault.”

     

    Not a single player would get into the England side? Does Owen need his head checking? Little Micky continued with this dazzling display of optimism saying:

     

    “When I look around the England squad and see the talent we have, I cannot imagine that we will not win something. A few lucky breaks at the right time wouldn’t go amiss — but we can’t just rely on good luck to see us through. We have got to apply the ability we have got — and I dare anyone to say it is not there.”

     

    Has he no idea that we failed to qualify for Euro 2008, and Croatia did us at Wembley in the crappy denouement? And what is all this guff about not a single Croatia player getting into the England team? The goalie would definitely waltz into the team and the way the defence played last week Bilic could probably dust off his boots and get into the England side too. And what of Portsmouth’s Kranjcar, he’d get in surely?

     

     

     

     

    sorry
