He would probably turn up for training at the wrong ground.Why don't we get David Cameron to replace Poch then?

So you'd rather have a bloke who was a good PR man rather than wins football games? Why don't we get David Cameron to replace Poch then?
This.But that PR is heard by the players too - from what I could see, they neither liked nor respected Tim. He'd have got nowhere with that dressing room in the long term and you could see that the longer the season went on.
Doesn't seem to have problem with the Villa players. The supply teacher problem was what did for Tim at Spurs, and it got worse the more uncertain his future became. Had fuck all to do with players views on his press conferences.But that PR is heard by the players too - from what I could see, they neither liked nor respected Tim.

Remind me of the Liverpool, Chelsea, and City results.Thing is, Sherwood won 4, drew 1 and lost 1 of his last 6 games. All this with players who didn't like or respect him? Contrast with the way we're ending this season with players who apparently do like and respect the manager?
Could it be that Sherwood had actually sussed who the legends and losers were and had dropped them? Or dropped as many as he could? I doubt he could have got a complete XI, frankly. Could it be that these are exactly the players that we could have done with clearing out, even if it took some bad results for a while? Not that Sherwood got bad results anyway. Best points per game of any manager in the PL era taking over an absolute shambles.

Afterglow?The 5th, 6th, and 6th-8th finishes of the last 3 seasons are more the result of the after glow of the Redknapp and Arnesen/Jol years. How would the managers we've had over these last 3 seasons have got on if they'd taken over the team Jol did, who had just finished 14th? Or the one Redknapp did, which was bottom and had finished 11th the year before. Midtable, I'd expect.

I have no idea what Eriksen thought of Tim but I do know that Tim has been the one manager able to get consistent performances out of him.Eriksen thought Tim was amusing.
He's gone now so who cares.
Just cause your mates like someone doesn't mean you do.I have no idea what Eriksen thought of Tim but I do know that Tim has been the one manager able to get consistent performances out of him.
But for what it is worth Christian is big mates with Harry and Gylfi who both rate Tim highly.
Thats bollocks.......Poch has ostracised far more players than Sherwood ever did.
And just because you struggle to pay attention and keep a straight face because of something happening off camera it does not mean you find the manager amusing.Just cause your mates like someone doesn't mean you do.
Yes but not getting spanked on a regular basis is progress. 8 points against top 4 vs 1 last year.Yes because you only get half points for beating Manchester United away, Southampton home and away, or Everton at home, or Stoke away, or Swansea away or Palace at home or Newcastle away... all of which Sherwood won. Far better to just turn up for Arsenal at home and then lose the others!

Has Poch made mistakes? Yes he has.
Next season is his make or break season.
Yes Tim managed 0 yes ZERO points against the top 4.Man City 1-4? Stoke 0-3? Chelsea 0-3? Man Utd 0-3? Stoke 0-3? That regular enough for you? He's got the defeats down by 1 goal though, so fair play for that! That said, Sherwood also beat Sunderland 5-1, Newcastle 4-0, Stoke 3-0, Villa 3-0... so he ended up with a goal difference of +11. Poch now has a goal difference +2. Plus ca change!
You used the Stoke result twice.Man City 1-4? Stoke 0-3? Chelsea 0-3? Man Utd 0-3? Stoke 0-3? That regular enough for you? He's got the defeats down by 1 goal though, so fair play for that! That said, Sherwood also beat Sunderland 5-1, Newcastle 4-0, Stoke 3-0, Villa 3-0... so he ended up with a goal difference of +11. Poch now has a goal difference +2. Plus ca change!
