Pulcinella Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 See Watford have poached Forest Green Rovers' manager. That's one rival needing a replacement manager already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athelwulf Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Mandy was astute when he brought Dave Jones here. Someone who'd managed at a much higher level, but whose stock had fallen in recent times. As is the case with Alex Neil. That's the profile of the replacement I'd like. We all knew what Neil would do at Hillsborough, and he did it. An experienced manager would have had the confidence to try something completely different, to throw Sunderland into confusion. What scares me about keeping Moore is not just his tactical and defensive shortcomings, it's also the prospect of a hangover, as occurred with Carlos. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'll review the playing strengths of the squad for next season, after all we went so close this season, and it's a slight readjustment that's needed to go all the way I didn’t realise that. Who is it? Maybe he’ll keep Moore on as coach then we are all happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been brilliant for the second half of this one, once he found his formula and stopped tinkering so much. If we can keep hold of the majority of this squad and replace the outgoing players with youth, we'll get automatic next season “Brilliant” for the second half of the season? Some appalling results, some scraped wins, some scrappy draws and ultimate failure. ”Brilliant” is not a word I would have used. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO Monk under different circumstances would have been a good manager for us, say with Carlos' players, but unfortunately the team he had here wasn't really good enough for the brand of football he wanted to play. But Monk was a good tactician. I remember his coming with Leeds at the beginning of Carlos' second season. He picked the biggest midfield I'd ever seen, and doubled up down the flanks. He said in his press conference that he'd picked a midfield specially for us. They triumphed 0-2, and were the first team to employ those tactics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athelwulf Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 8 minutes ago, BIG D said: 48 points in the second half of the season. ‘Some appalling results’ True. So what's the problem? Well, with better defending we'd have been top two, so problems against the likes of Alex Neil or Gareth Sh*thouse-Ainsworth (pronounced "Shittus") wouldn't have mattered. When teams let us play we're very good, when they don't we're bobbar. Moore can't deal with those who close us down, which means we'll have to do better against the rest who don't stifle us. If he's staying then that's the only solution. I hope and pray we don't have a hangover next season. If we don't, then we have a good chance IF he can sort the defending from set plays out, and we Row-Z it instead of pretending to be Franco Baresi or Paolo Maldini. Attacking teams always concede more, obviously, but it's the type of needless goals we've let in which is the sickener. It'd be worth bringing in a defensive coach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We spent large parts of the season without a recognised CB in the team. Name me another manager that would've done better with our injury crisis.
