CB Fry Posted 2 December, 2018 Share Posted 2 December, 2018 He's won the Europa League so can't be all bad. Sensible to get him in for the no-pressure match at Spurs as prep for the really rather high-pressure match vs Cardiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope this is a good decision, too much like the season we went down before with changing of managers At Watford he was very defensive, made his team very difficult to beat.

Badger Posted 2 December, 2018 Share Posted 2 December, 2018 My feeling about this entirely depends on who the replacement is. Exactly, think we've been here before "... need a replacement whoever he is, can't be worse than Puel, Pellegrino (in that case he probably wasn't, short term anyway)... and more emabarrasingly when Chris Nicholl was deposed.. and we know how that turned ou.. It's the hope that kills... (Jardim is about to sign for a Saudi club, just incase anyone had any ideas that we might bring in a quality replacement.)

It didn’t look to me that the players have lost their fight for the managerYou agreed we should sack MOPE? see how many points we had this time last season. Has Hughes shown any signs of improving the defence or getting a win? His subs and tactics are atrocious I said before why bring on Jwp or Davis like did against Brighton cost us game neither can defend we had better defensive options. Romeu Yoshida treatment then Armstrong being dropped when he was best player pre season. Our issues though are mainly down to shocking recruitment why is Wilson still here?
