Guest palnese Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 When was the last time we put in a decent performance in the league? April 21st. I don't believe it. Well, I grant you, it's subjective, but at home to Stoke was the last one I can think of. Agreed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 He really is a coward. Absolutely. Think he's just out of his depth tbh. Agreed. I think Pards is a very good and capable PL manager. But he just doesn't have the chops to make a mid-table team a Champions League team. Which *should* be our goal as a club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mofo Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I thought we started the second half well. He obviously said his bit at half time about Just lumping the ball up to ba..

He's not quite as good as that other afficionado of hoofball Sam Allardyce, as Fat sam clearly knows how to use dead ball situations better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Yes , i remember every single post that i was shot down for questioning his tactics and lack of routine drills and style. The cowardice of not using Ben Arfa. Its all in the thread you wanna do some digging? The only difference was we were winning marginally and everybody was happy. You were one in particular that loved it. I don't want to waste any more time on that. My point is simple: our squad is fucking shit. Compare the squad with Spurs, including the bench, and see where they finished last season. You are suggesting a "appropriate manager in your mind" can immediately turn us into Man Utd and winning most of the match "more than a margin". I don't know who that one is, and how realistic it is, I'm afraid you can't suggest anyone that would really come and work under Ashley. To me, I totally understand the limitation, and a "appropriate manager in my mind" is the one who can win most of the match marginally and consistently, GIVEN THIS SQUAD. Bassong even couldnt get a game in Spurs and was sold. I fucking miss him, you know? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe it was completely random that we finished 5th last season. This team does have a lot of talent and is capable of challenging for a Champions League spot on their best day (with a couple more additions).

Finishing 5 with or without Europe competition makes a huge difference. To the owner, definitely a no, because it means he has to spend money. Pretty obvious, no? In fact there isn't a team that can transform into a champions league team without spending huge money. Probably Sir Bobby has already spent the least.
