Gallowgate Toon Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Is Poyet highly rated? A Brighton fan I know didn't like him, was adamant that he wouldn't get them promoted and said he doesn't have a particularly adventurous philosophy.

Yeah, and some of our fans think Pardew is a tactical genius. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say, my experience talking to Brighton fans has been along the same lines as yours. But as said, worth a gamble considering the position the mackems find themselves in.

A Brighton fan I know didn't like him, was adamant that he wouldn't get them promoted and said he doesn't have a particularly adventurous philosophy. It depends what you mean by highly rated. Is he considered as highly as Rafa benitez or Gus Hiddink? No. Of the cheaper options for clubs that don't want to invest in an expensive manager, I would say yes. One Brighton fan's opinion doesn't really tell us much in isolation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few on here rated the di Canio appointment too, reckoned it showed ambition and we should be doing the same. Quite funny looking back like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Mark Douglas @MsiDouglas 51m Reading Italian reports on Poyet/#safc, they say it's nailed on but needs sign off of "president". Would say that's pretty big sign off... Expand So basically Brighton can prevent this? Or sunderland need to sign it off? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked far better organised defensively, they had a good work ethic and they showed good movement and passing when they had possession. Hopefully it was just a one off and he will prove to be shite after all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's that highly rated, we overrate him on here because he's not Pardew. Disagree. Think he's rated on here because he set out a team from a lower division that beat us comfortably twice. Not really seen Brighton play other than those 2 games so couldn't comment. He's a good commentator/analyst, that's about as much as i can vouch for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Made a lot of enemies quite quickly at Brighton. Yes they played a decent brand of football but all was not well behind closed doors. Work with a guy who also works at Brighton and he rates him highly to an extent - it's just he doesn't exactly bring harmony to a club. Example was with Vicente. Player did very well at first, but due to family issues became homesick and asked Poyet for a move. Poyet said if he tried his best and carried on at the club he'd definitely let him leave at the end of the season. Come end of the season, Poyet changes his mind and tells Vicente he has to stay and he never made such a promise. Not exactly wonderful man management. Also a direct quote from Vicente: Meanwhile, the club's departing Spanish star Vicente has blasted Poyet by calling him "the worst person I've come across in football." The 31-year-old told the Argus: "For me he is a selfish person, very egocentric. I say that because it’s how I feel. "I won’t talk badly about my team-mates, because they have been fantastic with me. What I think is unacceptable is that the manager makes fun of his players. I’ve seen things here that I have never seen in my career. If you miss with a shot in training, he makes fun. For me, that is unacceptable in football." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 He comes across as a nob on TV IMO, but he might still be a decent manager. Got to be at least better than Di Canio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
