He's clearly a very hard working, focused, intelligent coach with strong ideas of how we are going to do things. The worry is we don't have the players to execute what he wants so he's going to have to be given a lot of time and a few windows to get it right. |

If I'm reading that correctly we seem to have played at about the same speed as Norwich but are far more direct. |

Let’s roll with it, can’t be much worse than the crap we've had to sit with. At least the guy has a different angle which is refreshing. He needs time. |

Not too fussed about the possession thing, it's trying something different. He saw against Hull we tried the pressing game and we were cooked after 30 mins. Adapting the play to the situation, lets hope the players can actually pass and hold possession. We were knackered because we were giving the ball away and having to chase it back, the more possession you have the less you need to make high pressing sprints, it goes hand in hand. It's what city, Liverpool and almost every top side are the masters of |

Have they really been asked to play possession football as a team before? There have been a lot of passes across the back, mainly it would seem because nobody wants to take responsibility and then a lot of sideways passing on the edge of the opponents box. That's what possession football is when you've got low confidence players. It's dominated our play for years. Players at this level don't have the touch or speed of thought for it and what you end up with is an utterly turgid route 1 football. Pass, pass, pass until opposition are back in shape and then hoof it to no one. I don't want a return to Pulis ball but at least it was high intensity and didn't allow the opposition to settle. Possession football is not passing the ball between your CHs and GK or passing the ball sideways across the edge of the penalty area. It is about moving, giving easy options to the player on the ball, making defenders work to win the ball not just giving it back to them. I can't remember us having a team that is constantly moving, making the opposition make decisions rather than just sitting back and packing the penalty area knowing that eventually we will try a forward pass that they can intercept and set off on a fast counter. |

I like what he says, but I felt like that about Schumacher too. I still don't see how he will be any better just by the fact he talks a good game. The players are limited and we don't really ever look like scoring eg v Hull until the shot from Manhoef that led to the corner Wilmot scored from. I also thought Hull were as good as us in the first half last week, and we were good for more like 10 mins than 35. Hard to say they didn't deserve their win anyway, and chilling that they went from 2 goals to 5 thanks to our charity defence.
Hopefully the long overdue miracle of a revival in our fortunes will occur, but until then, maybe a tad less talk and focus on action would be seemly, from both him and Walters.

Let's just wait and see. His role is very different and Rome wasn't built  in a day. I think the problem before was that previous managerial choices maybe thought they understood what their role was as a Head Coach but then tried to move the boundaries possibly when installed. This guy has been a COACH and I think he's probably very clear on how this works in relation to DoF etc. It's nothing to do with being a 'yes' man but rather understanding the position and getting on with at the training pitch. I know that words are cheap but I've been saying for ages now we need someone with personality and confidence adn un-jaded ambition. Someone who really believes it can be achieved ( but wont be over night unfortunately). Somebody with a bit of charisma and dynamism who's not afraid to say it like it is. Now this may well go down like a lead balloon with the more seasoned shirkers but I think the hungry, ambitious , less fearful youngsters will at least try to embrace it. We have to cut some slack and give them some time but we've chosen a different path to beat and I personally think it's the right one. GOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRN NARCIS! GOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN STOKE ! |

You weren't in your seat when Bae had his chance in the first minute then? Should have scored having done all the hard work and I think the result may then have been different. |

I keep forgetting his name. I've always been a bit rubbish at remembering names but am good with faces. Wan Bissaka...I just now had to look up his real name as I called him Wazbinakka and it stuck in our household  As for our New HC, I wish I'd not seen the Chicho bit cause he'll always be Nacho to me now.  |

I'm glad you've said this as driving back listening to RS you'd think we'd dominated the first half, when in reality I thought it was fairly even. |
