deano Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Seems he wont take any crap from the ego's within our squad. Looking forward to seeing his team selections. Suspect will make or break some of our flair players like L.J, work hard or dont play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlimited potential for songs and jokes playing on the name lucky. muck star 'tache that we can all copy. Certain to win penalty shoot out in playoffs. Never been sacked for using a brolly in the rain. Whats not to like? Oh and probably Germany for pre season. Sounds good to me Brad . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but until last season they hadn't been in Europe for donkeys years. They were underachievers and had yoyo'd from 1st to 2nd division. Always been a sleeping giant.

Markowski77 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Jos Luhukay's 5 training theses. 1. Winning builds team spirit 2. Tactics stand or fall on preparation 3. Playing 5/6 different systems is nonsense 4. We are not here to have fun 5. If the players are happy doing something, they do it better Via Bild / @LovellLowdown. #swfc add that in with the disciplinarian & leadership - exactly what we need never thought I'd say it but genuinely excited!

kilbyj Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) The more you read about this chap the more positive it gets. Seems like he should get us more organised and harder to beat.

NorfolkNChance Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Very left field but to be expected at S6 these days. Onwards and upwards. Good record, well respected in Germany and appears to take no crap from players and expects hard work and results. That will do for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tottyboyowl Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I would be interested to see what his win rate is in the Bundesliga 2nd tier rather than the overall one. Only on the basis that it is difficult to judge or take into account the % in the top league as (like in England) there is great(er) disparity in budgets and skill level.

Gladbach were relegated from Bundesliga after he took over from Heynckes but he led them straight back up as champions. Promoted three times to Bundesliga, twice as champions (record points with Hertha), once as runners-up. Style of play would not be pretty or expansive. Known for organised, dour stuff but that was mainly working with average players at Augsburg who he led to promotion in 2011 and kept them in up. His Hertha Berlin side played 4-5-1 but scored most of their goals against 2.Bundesliga's lesser teams. His sides are renowned for good defensive records... presume lots of clean sheets. Gained reputation for an expert at promotions from 2.Bundesliga so he left Augsburg to go to capital city club, Hertha. Naturally he won promotion at the first attempt as champions but don't recall over expansive, attractive football. Took the job 2016 at Stuttgart in 2.Bundesliga who had just been relegated, won three of first five games but left post early with reports of differences of opinons with DOF. If I had to sum up, it may not be pretty but players will put in a shift for him. But if you have an overload of flair players from carlos c, it may be bad news for a few. On the face of it, pretty sound record. That relegation at Gladbach can be explained as he took over a poor side during winter break. I am surprised he has been out of work for so long (Sept 2016). "I don't like laziness" - Jos is a disciplinarian and considered a canny tactician Along with three promotions, also got Augsburg to playoffs but lost out to Ilkay Gundogan's Nuremberg in 2010.

If the players are happy doing something, they do it better Mark Lovell - ESPN Bayern Munich Correspondent | Sports Journalist Translator | Bundesliga Football Writer Worth pointing out too that Jos Luhukay has managed clubs with big attendances -- Hertha Berlin averaged 40k, Gladbach have a capacity of 54k. Don't be fooled into thinking he managed "little clubs" - Augsburg also averaged 30k. #swfc Couple more nuggets on Jos Luhukay via @guek62 who followed him closely at Augsburg. #swfc When he was a player his team was almost completely wiped out in an air disaster... he was injured and didn’t travel - therefore he now prefers to travel by train. One more nuggets on Jos Luhukay via @guek62. #swfc He is Dutch but opted to do his coaching badges in Germany, so doesn’t view himself as a Dutch trainer. Safety-first coach with conservative tactics. Often man to man marking; strong leadership and a disciplinarian Dale Johnson - Editor at ESPN FC I can see people missing stuff due to the fast moving nature of the thread and double posting tweets about him. I rolled up Mark Lovell's tweets into one paragraph above, a few from Dale Johnson, along with kristmace's great little history table! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I know he is Dutch, but there are far more jokes available if he were German. I'm just going to pretend he's German. Can you imagine us going 1-0 at Carlisle, and him barking the word 'RETREAT' in a thick Bavarian accent. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 This will go one of 2 ways, and next Friday is pivotal. Win, and he will achieve legendary status, and buy himself a fat contract for a few years. Lose, and lose badly, and that result, in his first game, will stick with him like a fat bird with gout and leakage, in Magaluf. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post vulva Posted January 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2018 TBF, McLaren came back from Israel for the job and still didn't want it. It's not a done deal this yet. This German might take one look at the contract, the club flat above the Mangla and Liam Palmers muffin top and decide to help AVB valet his Citroen instead. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
