You've also got to take into account they lost their main man Bony and wasn't replaced until the summer.

 

I agree despite his success the Laudrup situation had to be brought to a close as he was dialling it in like Gullit was up here.

Not saying Swansea have been wrong to sack their managers but they pull the trigger quickly. Perhaps one of them could've turned it around. But it's not their style.

 

They always had a decent squad mind. This lacks class and leadership from the looks of things.

 

At least their new man will have plenty of time.

There may be an element of patronage in Bradley's appointment, but the bloke clearly has some ability and drive and sometimes a left field choice can work well.

 

The story in the papers seems to be all about Giggs being passed over, but the guy has little managerial experience and it's of little relevance that he was good player and is (sort of) Welsh. He'd have been just as risky an appointment.

Wagner would be foolish to choose Villa. I know there's examples where someone has stepped down to a bigger club, but this one is simple - go to Villa and he definitely won't be in the PL next season, stay at Huddersfield and he might be.

 

And might put money on Swansea to go down now.

He might be shite at Villa anyhow. Who knows?

They're 10 points off the play-offs with 105 points to play for. They're still 6th favourites to go up. Too early to write them off.

Definitely. Huddersfield could lose their momentum earlier than expected and Villa could start getting more points off from our promotion rivals. Saying this, i'm not sure he would like to go there, at least not this season.

 

He won't get a better opportunity to get a big job imo. Right now his star is at it's highest, but they've scored 14 goals in their 11 games, been sneaking victories, they can't maintain that and when the fall off begins and they slip to mid table , he'll be forgotten about. He might have something about him but 11 games is way too small a sample size to say for sure.

 

It could all be a flash in the pan, I agree, but there's just something about his manner which impresses me, and his team look well organised. If you are going to take a punt on a manager, that's the sort I would go for.

5th is hardly mistable, tbf

 

They only moved to 5th after winning last night, they were 12th. Just missed out on a play off spot last year though.

Missed by 1 goal apparently.

Aye, same goal difference and points, just missed out on goals scored.

They don't use head to head?

Cardiff have sacked their manager

 

About time for them, they've been miserable this season, wish we had played them during the spell hopefully we'll get them during the "still in turmoil" stage rather than "new manager bounce".
