Almat Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 (edited) If I was a Swansea fan and knew what I know of Clueless and 'must win' games I'd be very worried. He'll spend the build-up to the Stoke game making them sound like Barca and by the time the match kicks off the players will be too scared to play. Swansea 0 Stoke 1. Stitched on....he's a simply dreadful manager. Edited May 9, 2018 by Almat 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see Swansea sacking him, I reckon they’ll let him have a bash as he’s Championship experience and a play off final to his name... they’ll go into free fall and he’ll do a runner to another of his boyhood clubs by December. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Carlos the fraud strikes again. Game v Southampton was massive , shock horror they lost. Sound familiar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Cardiff will be absolutely loving the prospect of taking Swansea's place in the Premier League. That would just top it off for them, wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleo Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Rather face Swans next year than Udders. If they come down I think they will sink, maybe do a Sunderland. Whereas Udders will have Wagner and parachute payments. They would be a force to be reckoned with. Add Stoke and West Brom who I think will give anyone a game. Just highlights the opportunity Carlos squandered for us last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 (edited) Looks to me highly likely that we will face Swansea next season. When the pressure was on at home against Southampton they were flat and didn't go for it enough. Mark Hughes and Southampton were braver and gave it more of a go. When Carlos first went there and started off well, I actually thought Swansea suited him more, thinking of the way we played in Carlos' first season here. But for whatever reason Carlos has reverted to the slow negative possession football that we saw earlier this season and the whole of last season. It said it all to me yesterday when the likes of Tammy Abraham were on the bench for a must win game, when whilst here he often gave the likes of Joao and Nuhiu bit part roles too. Mark Hughes was braver with his tactics and his attacking substitutions were the major difference between the teams. I can see Swansea blowing it again at home in their final must win game against an already relegated Stoke, a team that can go there with no pressure. Huddersfield recently have shown more fight than Swansea, I reckon they will park the bus in their last two games and get the single point they need from one of them but it won't matter as I believe Swansea will draw or lose their final game.

edwinowl Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 So typical though last night. Plan B was to bring the big lad on just like he did with big Dave. If you ask me abrahams should have started anyway. Many similarities to his latter time here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 They'd be crazy to stick with Carlos the fraud. Bottles every big game, takes a team backwards, and bores you to death in the process. It was obvious he'd get found out even quicker in the Premier league. The same sound bites are coming out of Swansea as hung over him like a bad smell with us. 'No shots' 'No attacking intent' ' doesnt try to win games' bigs up the opposition' etc etc Worst manager in our history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earlsfieldowl Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Getting found out at Swansea - but may yet get lucky. Otherwise he will likely move to the next club he wanted to manage as a kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Great money-making opportunity though. If Swansea stay up, pile on them to go down next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Agency will be smarting their managers have not delivered and clubs where have influence in UK have performed poorly and that is where the money is. I notice a poster on here (who probably works for an Agency) who used to back CC all the way has recetly started being negative about prospects for next season. Tells me they have lost influence and keen to try and get back in. Delighted to see they have had loss of influence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he created alot of unrest and stifled Academy when we had some of best prospects coming through for years which no other manger has done. In my opinion this is his biggest failure. When he went to Swansea and had a couple of good results some on here indicated would do well in Premier. I said he would relegate them and have had large bets on them to be relegated. I found him to be an obnoxious individual who is full of self importnace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left us with a disgracefully unfit and crocked squad, many of whom will take 18 months to recover. Arrogant and selfish. Shocker of a Manager befitting of such a poor CV.
