Ndegwa Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 If he's given the job I'll reserve judgement on him. He's a mediocre manager who happens to be of better pedigree than the last 5 we've appointed. You'll do the usual Ronaldo cycle, i.e. I'm not impressed but it's not as bad as you plebs are making out - it's actually great having a proper manager, unlike the last one - he's a god amongst men and far more handsome than I ever realised actually, can't believe you lot thought Carver would be better - OK it's gone a bit s*** but he's not half as s*** as your hero Coloccini - Right, I'm turning up outside his house to have a word. nailed it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I like McClaren, tbh. I think he will do fairly well here if given good players and/or the finances to pursue talent. Also, a much better face for the club than the Pardew character.There are obviously still persistent and deep issues with the way NUFC is operated, but the manager's seat will have it's best occupant since September 2008, imo.

mikejaxer Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Oh look we've appointed yet another average English manager. So much for hoping for a difference. Mid table medciority it is then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I know it doesn't matter, but what kinds of players does McClaren generally sign? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I know it doesn't matter, but what kinds of players does McClaren generally sign? Dunno. I know he said this in 2013 though. In England, the manager is in charge of roughly everything in terms of what he wants to do and who he wants to sign. In Holland, I was the trainer and the technical director so I had that responsibility as well. But in Germany I had that general manager in the middle and I'm afraid I didn't adapt to that very well. In the end, that was my downfall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 He signed some good players for Boro - Viduka, Hasslebaink, Mendieta, Yakubu, Zenden. I think Juninho, too. A little encouraging going through his stats. His losing ratio isn't that bad especially compared to Pardew who lost more games than he won. If you're not going to win, at least draw. Also responsible for Downing, Cattermole and James Morrison's debuts, so he can develop youth. I'm trying to be optimistic. Hopefully it doesn't all go wrong.

Teasy Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Urgh, I really do think this is the worst case scenario. I doubt I can even get much enjoyment from hating McClaren tbh, he's nowhere near the arsehole Pardew is, or anywhere near as comically incompetent as Carver. I'm just likely going to be bored fucking silly. Aye but what if you end up being entertained by the Football? I know its now a completely alien concept to us, but I think that's supposed to be the source of enjoyment for Football fans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah true, Cattermole looked a promising actor when he started balling his eyes out when the prolific Luke Moore slotted his hat-trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I agree. Also key is that we now have a manager in tune with Carr. There can therefore be no excuses for not getting players in, and on time, and then having them used properly. The first thing to see is whether recruitment improves drastically, now there should be no more discord behind the scenes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
