I wonder if the Clubs PR dept bother letting the players know what they say they said?

 

[ataggy]

Soton and Ronald Koeman dont seem to have a problem clicking, so why do we? Sick of the excuses.

Because Koeman walked into a club that was on the whole a fit well drilled team with prospective youths ready to fill the gaps left by the players that left.

Pochettino walked into...Spurs.

Yep. So many variables.

Sounds like Eriksen has overheard Levy tapping up the next manager .

we just need time.......................... or 3 years should do it

Anyone who knows anything about football knows it takes a new manager longer then 9 games to get it right.

He's had a lot more than nine games. Fifteen games in all competitions without the pre-season games.

Should we be at the same level of readiness as a club with a settled squad and manager, well no but don't make it sound like he's just walked through the door either. Given the training time and actual games played we should as far as i am concerned be further down the road than we actually are given the massive financial investment in players over the past two seasons.

Time will tell, but by the end of the season i am hoping that we are more than three points above the bottom three.

He has had 9 prem Lge games to find a winning team, if you think that is long enough to be " further down the road" then I guess you are the type of guy who hates waiting to be served in shops/pubs etc.

Making any kind of judgement of how good/well/bad he is doing is foolish and is one of the things wrong with some of our support and the game.

I can't be the only bloke who logged in to S.C. on Monday to see whether Poch was still manager .

Less than 12 points out of the next 10 games and Poch will be looking for a new job .

As frustrated as I am by the apparent lack of progress so far, I think it would be a massive mistake to sack him even if we do find ourselves in that scenario.

Oh Christian. You're at Spurs now. We demand instant success. Don't worry about it, you'll get used to it. And the booing. Bless.

True but did you get a look at Levy's face on M.O.T.D. ?

Looked like he was absolutely seething .

Poch is starting to resemble a dead man walking already and it's nothing to do with Halloween .

 

[SteveH]

I think nodding off on the pitch halfway through a game is the problem Christian. Our players think playing for us is a jolly up.

Surely Levy is smart enough to see that EVERYONE is talking about his choices now, media and fans. Firing another of his choices prematurely is not going to improve his own image. I anticipate a lot more patience this time. I welcome a lot more patience. Severely fed up of chopping and changing.

Where was my "judgement" on his performance so far?

The squad has featured in more than nine games and you know this as well. He's had MORE time than Koeman to assess the squad, and more time than LVG so please do not try and accuse me of being foolish.

Does he need more time, well results would suggest that he does, but using the number of games as a barometer for success works both ways. I wonder if those Saints or Man Ure fans can see a difference already?

At the end of the day football is all about opinions and i can see the difference being made at clubs that have new managers, despite those where major players have been lost. It's got bugger all to do with shopping or waiting for a pint to be pulled.

If you say so, but the point still stands anyone who knows anything about football knows it takes more the 9 LEAGUE games to build a settled side.

Competitive matches are what it's all about. Not the amount. I guess after reading his latest interview we will not likely see any progress as the pitch is now apparently after nine "LEAGUE games too small.

Comedy gold from the coach.
