Robster Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Pulis going back will finish them off. Going back to a place of former (relative) glories, rarely, if ever, works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Pulis going back will finish them off. Going back to a place of former (relative) glories, rarely, if ever, works. Eddie Howe didn't do to bad returning to Bournemouth. I think Pulls would keep them up no problem, that's his skill set and the group of players is more than good enough to survive. Hughes staying put for a little while longer is what we need, he's clearly lost the players and the fans, their goal difference could be a killer for them but they do have a good set of fixtures coming up.

Mr Logic Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Has Hughes ever been a decent manager anywhere, even marginally. Genuinely can't recall, always seems to be getting sacked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I might be wrong, but my interpretation is that he's one of those managers who transitions from one style of play to another and there's a fleeting spell where it works well in that '90s mid-table Spurs way and then it fails. I can't dislike him tbh, he's a bit of a dick but my impression of him is that generally he does want his teams to play football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The sort of player he was probably plays into it as well like. I know he still got stuck in but pretty much every memory I have of him as a player is him volleying or scissor kicking one into the top corner.

Yorkie Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I don't give a fuck about Stoke but I dunno if I could deal with them reappointing Pulis. For all I dislike Mark Hughes and ultimately his appointment didn't achieve much; he was progressive in comparison to Pulis. They moved on from the tracksuit bellend because they wanted to go somewhere other than basic Premier League consolidation. It hasn't exactly happened with Hughes, but ffs - don't go backwards. Pulis has absolutely no right to walk straight back into a job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 If we had decent money to spend I’d like to see us go for Butland, would really screw Stoke at the same time. Not sure if he’s a Rafa keeper or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Hughes put together a tidy Blackburn side. Finished 7th or 6th playing decent football. Bellamy scoring something like 16 league goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Turns out it was 13 in 27 PL games. 17 in 32 overall. They finished 6th. Semis in League cup. Otherwise he’s done an OK job elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 On the other side of the coin, how we laughed at Hodgson, Allardyce and Moyes when they were appointed. Allardyce has won 4 out of 5. Moyes has pulled West Ham out of the relegation zone and Hodgson at Palace has been quite remarkable; No losses in 7 now, despite losing their first seven games. Whist there is some absolute nonsense in the media regarding British coaches, it seems thus far, those three clubs have made the correct choice in picking experienced British managers.

TRon Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I think he's one of those nothing managers, doesn't really have a method which you can pin down. With Rafa it's pretty clear what he wants and I like that in a manager, even if I don't always agree with it. I don't really see what has prevented Hughes from doing better at Stoke either. Has he got a valid reason for being in a relegation fight this season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
