Carlos’ approach to Play-Offs

[Holmowl]

A video has emerged showing how Carlos planned to nullify the attacking threat of the mighty Huddersfield in the 16/17 play-off semis.

 

 

The red No 93 looks a decent player mind.

Carlos the Clown had a plan???.

Poor kids were a player down, Abdi's son didn't turn up.

Nah, course not. We just fluked our way to the two best seasons we've had in 20 years, consecutively.

THIS a thousand times ^^^^

How our 'fans' can mock a coach who gave us our only two good seasons in the last twenty, beats me.

And the OP mocks Huddersfield too.  They can't have been that bad to survive the Prem last season.

 

And we didn't spend tons of money.  The first season was done with Gray's team, plus bargain signings such as Wallace, Forestieri and Bannan.

And if some of them were(still are) overpaid- it's not the coaches fault, it's the secretary/chairman to blame.

The temptation - to see how many kids you could take out with one shot?

Don’t you count the two promotions out of League 1 as good seasons?

[fpowl]

Carlos fault was he didn’t train his players right fitness wise or utilise his squad the result you run out of steam and pick up long term injuries 

 

everywhere he goes he has immediate success followed by failure 

 

we've felt the brunt of this over the past 2 seasons

Those 3 Japanese pros were remarkably reserved... imagine if UK TV had set that up... Roy Keane... David Batty...Paul Ince.. grieving parents...

That video is brilliant. It would be great if our players could do something similar at Owls in the Park.

 

Loads of boys and girls would have great fun. You could even have different groups of kids each playing for 10 or 15 minutes  to get even more involved.

 

It would be great PR and I'm sure the players would love it. Abdi should be gone by then so there's no chance he'd get injured.

Yayy another Carlos bashing thread, he's only been gone for around a year and a half. Westwood getting injured in the warm up before the Norwich game was his fault you know.

2nd season we had a team good enough to challenge Newcastle and Brighton and he fizzed that up.

 

Then he bottled our best chance if getting promoted.

 

Huddersfield then Reading for a spot in the Prem. fizz me stuff of dreams that. Never be as easy as that ever again.

Pistol, rifle, shotgun or tank?

It’s a good OP. 

 

Of of course much of the post hoc criticism of CC is halfwitted.

 

But it’s true that his approach to the play offs and in general to the big games was too cautious. We saw that at Swansea in the end where he got a poor team closer to salvation than anyone would have expected but then let it slip.
