madras Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 From what I've read about Fonseca it's hard to judge what "his" style of play. At Shaktar it was easy to play a possession game as they had the best players and played a different game in Europe. At Roma he changed from a back 4 to a 3 as different players came in. Maybe he doesn't have a set style of play, just likes to be attacking and uses his players to what he thinks suits them ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Ideally we get a sporting director first, in my opinion the 2 strongest links in Rangnick and Campos don’t match up to the managers we are being linked with in that I feel we would be going for a better candidate than any of the ones linked.

Consortium of one Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Well, all eyes will be on Jones. Can he organize the defense? Can he teach his players to hold onto the ball a bit more? If he can start getting some results it buys us time to do things the right way. If it's more of Bruce's naffery we'll have to move really fast.

He seems to put a lot of thought into how to make it happen anyway, if what we read on his methods are accurate. I suppose the only question would be how would it translate in the Premier league.

When Rafa was here, it seemed the only thing holding him back was not having owners who matched his ambitions for the team. Now they are here, it's a shame he isn't. However, now he's at Everton and he's not one to break a contract. I am excited to see who we get in though and I think we can all agree whoever it is will be far better than what we've just had. I wonder if there’s a buy out clause in his contract? Throw money at the Scouse Mackems an offer they can’t refuse and he could come home head held high and retain his integrity.

et tu brute Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Obviously we are in the B or even group C of managers (probably group F before takeover ) and we currently have to except that in the position we are in. Bit of a concern about his defensive record, but he's a 100% improvement on Bruce. Just need to stay up this year (even 17th - still think Burnley, Norwich and Watford will be the 3) as otherwise the plans are put back by at least 2 years.

Rich Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 We’re conceding 2.4 goals a game so far this season. I’ll be amazed if any of the managers linked do worse than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Klopp, Pep, Ole, Nuno etc etc hadn't managed in the premier league. Think you have bought into the myth that the PL is some kind of mystical league and only those who have managed within in, can succeed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
