Box_Man Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Below is what one of my German colleagues sent me this morning. Good morning Chris, A happy New Year and all the best for 2018 - and congratulations to the new Wednesday manager Jos Luhukay… He is dutch and managed a few clubs in the Bundesliga / 2nd Bundesliga in the past, see his track record attached ("Spiele" stands total matches for the club, "G" stands for wins, "U" for draws and "V" for losses) Luhukay managed my favorite team Borussia Mönchengladbach from 2007 to 2009, starting as the assistant manager of Jupp Heynckes (manager Bayern Munich). He relegated from the Bundesliga in the first season (ranked last!), but promoted one season later again to the Bundesliga with Gladbach. Aftwards he also promoted with Augsburg and Hertha BSC Berlin from the 2nd Bundesliga to the Bundesliga, so he is well known in the Bundesliga. I think there were some rumors in December that he will be the new manager of 1.FC Köln (Cologne, currently last ranked in the Bundesliga), but it seems that he finally decided to join Sheffield. Couldn't tell you more about his tactics or his mangement style, but he obviously seems to know how to manage teams to promote to higher leagues. Good luck for your team and cheers from Raunheim, Torsten 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box_Man Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 On the face of it he looks like a bit of a big club promotion specialist. Maybe DC does know what he’s doing after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earlsfieldowl Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Be interesting to know what state MBG were in when he was relegated with them. To get them up afterwards is no mean feat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyowl Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I like this appointment, it's a risk but if he can get some players he knows from Germany I'll be very happy with that, we need re-reinforcements fast but can't afford the UK market it's a yes from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballmeist Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 He managed his favourite team but can’t tell us anything about his tactics or style of play?

bradowl Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) Someone might have already posted this.. But just incase its not.. ESPN reporter... On Jos Luhukay "I don't like laziness" - Jos is a disciplinarian and considered a canny tactician Along with three promotions, also got Augsburg to playoffs. 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) 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 Edited January 5, 2018 by bradowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn’t like lazy players that can only be a positive as we’d never see Wallace and Fletcher again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
