The College Dropout Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Winning that league is almost comparable to Pardew finishing 5th. Brilliant job followed by failure in Germany. Failure back in Holland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Unbelievable, I would be interest to hear your take on how McClaren actually won that league with Twente. Was it simply his management genius, did he inherit a great group of players ? Did he just get lucky ? What style of play did they adopt, always negative or positive, attacking or dour ? Equally why did he fail on his second time around ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally why did he fail on his second time around ? My brother in law has a FC Twente season ticket. He says that although McClaren came in at just the right time (decent squad, owner willing to spend) his experience and motivation skills were crucial in their winning title bid in 2010. However, he has also said that the football was very result oriented (read boring) with clean sheets the main priority. This was his downfall in his second stint in charge, as results were disappointing and the football on display wasn’t much better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting thanks man, I'm still no more convinced about him, sounds like a pardewesq philosophy then of keeping it tight at the back and hoping for a bit of magic, great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thenorthumbrian Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 McClaren, "it could have been worse" Perhaps that should be the motto of the club now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Since Twente his record is pretty poor. Such an underwhelming appointment, he's already shown he's going to be another doormat by taking on Carver, Stone et al. Worrying the same philosophies and idea or more appropriately lack there of will be allowed to remain at the club. Imagine getting a scouting report from John Carver on someone like Remy Cabella.

kager Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Normally, I would give anyone coming in the benefit of the doubt, but I remembering telling my wife that Carver wouldn't be that bad, so clearly my judgement is impaired. I don't have anything against McClaren, just utterly disappointed at the lack of ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't do great at both Wolfsburg and the short period at Forest, but his win percentage at both his second stint at Twente and Derby are pretty decent like.
