Well ok...I made the 3rd bit up, but you sort of get my drift... MH is a very lucky man, managers have been given the bullet for far less incompetence.

Palacios is the worst ever. Of these 3 im going Berahino so far. Worse goal ratio than bego which i cant accept. Good shout on Winston Palaceous.

So we're giving up on Wimmer, an international and Champions League defender, after half a dozen injury-hit games are we? I never rated him anyway, weird signing.

Hilarious how many "fans" on here pay zero attention to football outside the Bet365 (and a few pay zero attention in there!) "Wimmer a fish out of water in the prem" "out of his depth"
The blokes playing at around 60% match fitness due to an injury crisis (so much for the experts saying we had plenty of cover at CB)
Fucking hilArious how every new signings expected be a world beater from minute 1. How many times IT ISNT FOOTBALL MANAGER you thick fucks!!!

Wimmer's been about as good as Mark Stein was for his first few games. And Jimmy Greenhoff, first six figure signing.

BMI has been average at best since we had him on loan. Lets hope Wimmer improves and become average also, gotta be an improvement on bloody awful. Hopefully he'll get time to heal and once back gets to play in a more settled back four.

How many times IT ISNT FOOTBALL MANAGER you thick fucks!!! Fitness issues may explain a lack of sharpness, pace and endurance. It does not excuse you for not being able to kick straight, complete a pass, win headers etc. I have not written him off yet, but the early prognosis is not good. He just does not look like he has 'got it', in fact I have seen centre halves on a sunday morning look more assured on the pitch. Hope I am wrong.

How many times IT ISNT FOOTBALL MANAGER you thick fucks!!! thats why opinions on here are polar opposite to the opinions of fans at the bet365. the opinions on this board stopped being relevant since we have been in the prem. very few posters who used to be on here regularly before this board was taken over by non supporters have remained and that shows in the quality in the posts.

HE IS NOT PERFECT by any stretch of the imagination. but he is OUR manager and he deserves to be backed. he has integrity, honesty, and his contacts in the game are second to none. would we really have had players such as arnie,bojan,moses,shaq,zouma,jesse coming to stoke if mh was not manager? didn't see many posters moaning the other year when we dicked man city and man utd in successive games? LOL....I meant Wimmer.... I still have faith in Hughes, but the thick end of 60 Mill wasted on 3 flops is beginning to take it's toll... some signings pay off some dont thats a fact in football. i doubt if any manager has a 50% success rate. but to write a player off after a handfull of games who is clearly only playing because we have injuries beggars belief.

I admire your faith mate, always have, and you are 100% SCFC thru and Thru, but I just can't see Wimmer coming good, Hope I am wrong of course....Berra I am still optimistic, Imbula is best consigned to History.

theres a very good footballer inside imbula that i am sure. when he gets his head straight he will be an asset to someone. shame it wont be us as he could have filled nzonzis shoes. but the stories i hear about him show why was a failure with us its all about his attitude.

Fucking hilArious how every new signings expected be a world beater from minute 1. How many times IT ISNT FOOTBALL MANAGER you thick fucks!!! Do we know that? I wish that it were true but I suspect it is utter bollocks. Honestly people keep referring to him as a Spurs player but I don't think Wimmer played more than about 10 hours 1st team football in the 2 years he was at Spurs. He made 15 appearances but several were as substitute such as his cameo in their 4-0 win against us last season at the Lane. I'm not really sure how his value went up 5 times over that period and how we judged if he is any good or not. Unfortunately I'm 90% certain we have screwed this transfer up too.

Why do we think when/if Berahino scores, things will then turn brighter for him? I would hope this to be the case, but I remember after Bony scored breaking his drought, he then did dick.

It would hopefully mean the mangers figured out a way to get the team creating chances for him, I'm not holding my breath.

My problem with wimmer is he's not pulling his weight
He's watching zouma intercept the play , tackle people , head it clear
That's not good enough for 18 million quid
He has to go out on the pitch and do stuff till the final whistle

Assuming "flop" to mean not living up to the expectations of your job then the "fans" on here who enjoy nothing more that slagging off the club at every opportunity. Worst in the league by a country mile.
