Owls Loyal Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 It is fair to say that a number of foreign managers have been outstandingly successful in Englsh football. But for every one of the following: Arsene Wenger Jose Mourinho Carlo Ancellotti There has been a: Jo Venglos Andre Vilas-Boas Felix Magath Unfortunately Clueless Carlos who had drifted arouind a host of clubs in Europe for short stays seems to be very much in the latter category.

Jeffjohnsonmyhero Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Stuart Gray and Brian Laws did well i thought with the tight Budgets they had to work with ,Look at what CC has available ,Match day tickets are not cheap ,I expect better than the football being churned out.

Burnley have spent more on one striker, than we have on our whole squad. What we've spend so far is probably about the going rate rate to assemble a lower mid table squad. Funnily enough, that's exactly where we are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You expect better than the football being "churned out"?! We're not playing badly, watching the burnley game saturday was mouthwatering at times. We expect better results sure, but if you expect better football i think you're at the wrong club mate! We're a completely new team you cant compare us to last year until they've settled in together like they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't see whats wrong with the football, overall we have showed periods of some very nice football, we just need to convert that into goals. I bet if we had won 2 or 3 of the matches playing exactly the same football people wouldn't be commenting on poor football? I would have liked to see what Gray would have done with a little money though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
