NUFCDoog Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 The thing is it works though, Watford have done this for years and it got them into the premier league where they established themselves for a few years before going down, but then now they’re straight back up and doing alright; all the while changing manager every few months. Its a weird one because it’s not the norm but it has worked for them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir_9 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 7 points from their first 7 games for a newly promoted club is more than acceptable. They probably have identified someone they think would do a better job more so than that sacked fella's shortcomings. Not surprised from the club that had 3 managers in one season and still went down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Yeah and even though they did go down the other year, that’s just one season, before then for years and now after, they’ve operated with the same premise of changing manager every few months and it’s worked, so pointless focusing on that one year it didn’t when for plenty of others it did and looks like it could continue to do so. ManDoon is right, it’s all about who comes in and the squad and whilst Watford’s is nothing special they have a knack of getting enough out of them with a change of manager regularly. It’s not for every one and as we’ve seen at loads of other clubs changing manager doesn’t always work, especially as regularly as they do it, but it’s clear that’s what the clubs vision is, they’re not interested in a Wenger/SAF type to create a legacy, they basically just want to stay in the Prem and have found a system that works for them, other than that one off season, but like I say they came straight back up and look alright this season. Its fascinating really as it’s so different to everything we know, and in theory it shouldn’t work, but if everyone at the club is bought in on it, which I seems they are, I guess that’s why it does, they’ve had some random managers as well which is refreshing not seeing them work through the same old PFMs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1964 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 The Watford owners are notoriously dodgy, I know a football agent who was told that following the sale of his player they weren't going to pay him. As he wasn't a big agent they basically made him go through the courts, which he did and won His risk was losing everything in legal costs and they thought he wouldn't see it through.

Guest Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 They’ve approached Ranieri. That’s as Watford an appointment as you’ll get. If he’s still there in January I’ll be surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
