Bulgaria 3,361 Posted September 6 (edited) He might do well, let's hope so, but there is no denying that his appointment is completely underwhelming. Even when we appointed Jos there was a smattering of excitement. He needs to hit the ground running. Edited September 6 by Bulgaria 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellowbelly 695 Posted September 6 I get that some people are disappointed it’s Garry Monk. I mean, we were promised Pulis..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

new zealand owl 456 Posted September 6 6/10- capable manager without doubt but has never experienced how to shape a squad over the course of time The football will be good. People seem to forget that but the concern is obviously longevity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelowl 11,871 Posted September 6 4 hours ago, daveyboy66 said: 6.5/10 purely because he likes to play attacking football and will not be looking how to neutralise the opponents before looking at how we play If I were to offer him any advice it would be to do just that , muck or nettles high intensity stuff will get the crowd behind him and the team cannot stand defensive sh*t especially at home away do what you have to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamiejohn 461 Posted September 6 I can’t say I’m doing cartwheels neither am I peed off . He’s a decent manager who could be a success or could be another one who just does a passable job with no long term . I was all for houghton originally but after he declined only cowley had me excited and looking forward to long term planning and a winning culture. Saying all that Garry will get my full backing and patience, good luck Garry wawaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU 25,961 Posted September 8 (edited) My whelm started to wither when we lost Bruce It withered further after the struggle to beat ordinary Barnsley and Luton teams My whelm disappeared after QPR But it’s fully back with the appointment of Monk I think he will prove to be a better manager than Bruce He’s the one I wanted after Hughton He’s a good man manager, plays decent football, and he doesn’t suffer fools He’s got some decent contacts too, including the current Arsenal manager Edited September 8 by HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
