HOSTAGE IN PYONGYANG Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I said before the result I like Jos, I'm am sticking by that. I still like Jos. If we had won, and the defence hadn't gone walk about, he would have been hailed as a genius. To paraphrase Kipping I think "if you can meet defeat and victory as the imposters they are, you'll be a man my son". For some it is time to man up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God help us Exactly. Look at the Burton performance and the half injured half unfit squad. It needs a lot of steadying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlsmad Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I like the fact Jos has showed faith in some of the youth squad, albeit without much choice. I also like to think that he has steadied the ship somewhat and isn’t afraid to change things up on the pitch. I must admit though, I’m very confused about the squad selection last night and more so the comments he made following the game. It was difficult to tell if it was broken English, avoiding the question or just that he was as annoyed as all the fans. That said, it is difficult to judge after the time he has had and the squad available to him. I just hope he gets to see some of our so called first team players, so he can make an informed assessment of how he sees their role next season or if he feels they need to be moved on to pastures new. Then with a full pre season and his own (full) squad to play with, it’s open season on judgement. For now he will get my backing. I can’t deny that I was underwhelmed when it was announced he was the new manager, but I never let that wain my support for any employee at the club (be it on or off the pitch). They get my full backing and I will continue to back them until they give me reason not to. Time to finish this dismal season, avoid relegation and build for next season. Onwards and upwards WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hillsborough Mole Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Seen every game hes been manager If Carlos had produced these performances, team selections and tactics 99% of our fans would be marching on the club waving shoes and pitchforks. Jos is not the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Would rate him as Par at the moment. Been a bit of improvement in performances but been hard work to watch at times. Get feeling the 'aggressive attacking football' Chansiri said he was aiming for when he took over will not be fulfilled under Luhukay but his brief is to get Wednesday promoted as that's where the money is and everything else is not a priority.

SiJ Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 5 out of 10. Think it is only fair to reserve full judgement once he’s got something close to a first team available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 5 out of 10 Solid but not spectacular! Top 6 next season if.squad fully fit! Or gone by Xmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Last nights team selection apart he has done well , dont forget until 2 months ago he would probably have hardly seen us play or know many of our players judge him 10 games in to next season . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twolaptops Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 No more than a 2/10 from me.........bizarre appointment.......seems like a boring "game spoiler" type..........he only has one level of emotion on the face of it.........where is the passion................wouldn't want him at a party Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramone Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Seems to know how to set a team up defensively. But with 17 clean sheets in our previous 3 seasons before this one, i'm not so sure thats what was required. Doesn't seem to be able to get a team to attack. The attacking intent shown in the games i;ve seen under him, other than Derby at home, has been fairly non-existent. Like the guy, the jury is till out for me though - 6 (at best) /10 Edited February 21, 2018 by ramone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Middlewood Owl Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 OK considering what he has to work with, i'd admit to being a bit worried about the team selection and tactics these last two games, hopefully in time we will see more performances like the win over derby and less of the negative stuff.

Mus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I think OK considering the situation. I read after we had signed him he plays a very defensive, don't concede goals style, which we have seen (apart from last night, but that was more a formation error). We are judging him too soon, wait till we have a fully fit squad and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a soft centre last night, and don’t forget Birmingham Also Boro, where we could easily have conceded 4 or 5 He has tightened us up, yes, but at the cost of offering zilch going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember those games where our first shot on goal was in the 80th minute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 You have to ask is he the sort of appointment that will help put bums on seats? Worrying team selection last night. No Joao in starting line-up ??? Overall he's done okay with the hand he has been dealt but he really needs to be judged when we see what he does when he has more players to chose from. I'll give him 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
