Dokko Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Even if we get relegated (and tbh he HAS to take half the blame as he'll have had almost half the season by then) we have to keep him. No one else would want the job and he'd be the right man to motivate a team back into the Prem. He's a promotion manager, i just wonder sometimes if that is the limit of his ability.

oldtype Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I still love the man to bits, and I think we're playing somewhat better football than under Allardyce, but his team selections have been completely indefensible. Say what you want about Souness and Roeder, but they always picked the best team available. Big Sam's selections were completely s***, but at least there was some rhyme or reason to them if you buyed into his footballing philosophy. Keegan's selections on the other hand simply defy reason. There is simply no human reason whatsoever to be picking Butt over Geremi, Duff over Zog, or Smith over Martins. Picking Smith in the midfield and starting Duff up front alongside owen has to rank up there with the worst of Big Sam's tinkering. I simply can't believe Keegan can actually be this inept. There has to be some sort of other factor going on behind the scenes. Perhaps the rumors of "plays if fit" clauses in contracts are true. Perhaps Keegan gets along too well with some of these players and that's influencing his selections (notice how every example in the above paragraph is an English/Irish player starting over a more deserving foreign one.) Whatever it is, it has to stop and it has to stop now. What gives me hope is that he eventually did figure out that we needed to play Enrique, but it took him a long time to figure that out. Hopefully he'll sort out the other things before we're in an irrecoverable position. Either that, Glen Roeder will be having a laugh when he brings Norwich to SJP next year.

Thespence Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Roeder's teams were only at their best when he had no other options at all iyam. Roeder's teams were only at their best when he had Alan Shearer next to him in the dug out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 The only selection I recall Roeder getting shit over was starting Parker over Butt when Parker was fit. In retrospect, was that such a bad idea? Okay, never mind about Souness. Stress playing Yahtzee with my memory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N'Zogbia was absolutely shockingly bad for every minute that Roeder put him on the pitch. In the first game after being dropped for the Irish oxygen thief, he came on and ran 50 yards to set up the winner. How rubbish. Then he got dropped again.

Howay man, we know your hatred for Duff and love for Zoggy. But he was gash last season compared to the one before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
