There were enough of us enlightened ones saying that from the moment DC gave him another season. it's not hindsight, it's actually the opposite..... it's foresight. Ironically.

Though a great win on Tuesday- it was our first in six attempts under Jos To quote Pulp Fiction- "let's not start sucking each other's d1cks quite yet" Was it foresight when the same people wanted Carlos out after we dropped out of the playoffs in February 2017 before winning 6 in a row?

Would love to see Lucas get a start against Swansea and smash it. A big "up yours" to Carlos for overlooking him. There were times in the dog days of Carlos where I could've literally torn my hair out (if I wasn't bald) when games for crying out for Lucas to be brought into the game... ..it's done now, over. The Joao has been unleashed. UTO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC should have reminded him of his obligations to play a more expansive game as his second season progressed, that’s my foresight , hindsight or whatever . Think clubs that consistently sack managers are a laughing stock that shower at Bell end road come to mind !!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Faces sometimes fit and sometimes they don’t. The funny thing is Jo’s came with a reputation for being very safe and dour. He’s blooded more kids in six weeks than Carlos did in three years, and seems to be giving Lucas the confidence to go out and play. So far so good for me. And yes a few of us have changed our minds on Joao but that’s because the kid has improved massively and turning the potential we all saw into performances.

Do you think Jos would have blooded any kids if we had a fit squad? Honest question.. I honestly don't think any of them would have got a peep. Thorniley wouldn't have got a game if Loovens, van Aken, Lees had been fit and available. Clare wouldn't have got in if Abdi, Bannan, Lee and Hutch had been available. Jos is getting a bit of an instant legend reputation for playing youngsters, but in reality he had no option but to play them and almost certainly wouldn't have if he'd had a full team like carlos did for most of his time here. Folk need to calm down a bit. All getting a bit too excited about things that aren't necessarily real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'd love a cup run. But more than that I want to see us challenging every 50/50 with 100% commitment. Winning the second balls and being sharp to the bounce. Want to see them (as Zico often said) busting a gut out there. If we get another Derby performance. Even if we don't get through I'll be happy. That'd be nice, and ideally it'd be great to play well and win. But I'd rather play terribly and win 1-0 with a goal off someone's backside in the 93rd minute than play well and lose.
