gdm Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 A likely 3 years of compensation due if we get Fatty Bruce, thankfully that rules him out. Not when he is sacked if Hull go down. Free and available. They've already said they won't sack him even if they go down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't surprise me if they tried to save on the lettering, as they could just call him Jelly Cunt and save a couple of quid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Remi Garde has moved back up to third favourite. John Carver has gone from 20/1 to 8/1 after achieving one point and further bringing us close to relegation Steve Bruce is currently 22/1 Allardyce is favourite to take over at the mackems.

Football would be pretty bog-standard 4-4-2/4-5-1, Bradley's old school. Intelligent coach, soft-spoken but highly respected by his players. Great ass on him, 6/10, would bang.

Kanj Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Probably right. He was substance over style and you'd never really be entertained. You'd get results. He's every bit of keep it tight and nick a goal or 2 that many of these PL managers seem to preach - but he coached his teams to fight and never ever give up. I'd never want him as manager here but I'd take him over many names brandished about that are of the Bruce ilk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah dunno that he'd hack it in the Prem...OGS did well in the Tippeligaen (albeit with a far bigger and wealthier club than Stabaek) and then fell flat on his face with Cardiff. I do think Bradley could do a good job in a bigger league though, low-to-mid table club in France or something. He does have significant experience and success at the international level as well.

Kaizero Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 FWIW Stabæk play some Barcelona-esque football over here these days. So entertaning I even watch them withoit a bet on. Only Rosenborg are more entertaining, but Rosenborg have like 30 times Stabæk's budget and can just sub on good players infinitly. Stabæk has a core of about 6 or 7 talented players, but even when they sub on some 17 year old nobody you don't notice any drop in entertainment value as their style is so ingrained. It's fantastic. I'd have Bradley here in a heartbeat and wevome him with a big ass "Captain America" tifo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zicomartin Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I think most of our problems are pretty basic. We just need a proper central midfielder in midfield to 'control' the game. Like Medhi Abeid. Then a 'passer' or 'ball player' next to him, like Anita, or even Colback (with some proper coaching to show himself to receive a pass). This is where JC is such an idiot (playing Raylor and Jonas in CM). Everytime we are chasing the game, JC just empties the midfield for more 'wingers wiv fret'. And we subsequently concede more. It isnt even that complicated, just deny the opposition control of the midfield and they probably wont score. Yet the dumbnuts in charge can only manage 1 point in eleven games, when we only ever needed 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 This opinion might be a little optimistic and bases entirely on hope but I don't think we're such an ugly prospect for a young manager with ambition. Assuming we stay up Mike will have to spend some decent money even just to get the club back to a safe midtable position. I also don't think the squad is too bad, we've just been left woefully under staffed with a group of coaches with absolutely no tactical know how. If you look at all of the other relegation contenders there's not many from those squads who you'd think will definitely be on the move in the summer. Even if you just take a few players from the squad like Krul, Tiote, Perez, Cabella, Sissoko and Janmaat we have a fairly talented core of players that have performed at two or three times the level of what they're currently producing. Couple that with that fact that if we do stay up we will have an absolutely abhorrent points total while producing some of the most turgid ineffective football going. It wouldn't be too hard for someone to come in who has even the slightest element of tactical know how and make themselves look very impressive. Obviously this is solely dependent on staying up and Mike spending to keep us in the league next year. Neither are certainties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
