f*** off Chewuson.

If it’s not coaching, it’s not morale, it’s not form, and it’s not deliberately throwing games then what’s left?
-
I thought you were one of the first to say “I want him gone. Now.”
-
I don’t believe they’ll be throwing games, no. But it is possible for managers to create an environment where good players become bad. We’ve seen it happen before.
-
If we keep that up, and add it to the points we got in the first few games, we should have enough to stay up.
-
Since he doesn’t buy the players, and if he’s also not responsible for what they do on the pitch, then I think we are paying him way too much.
-
Yeah, I mean human brains are more complicated than we try to make them seem. It won’t be quite as clearcut as “the manager has lost them”. But that’s a convenient shorthand for what is going on with some of them at least.

Pitching for the captaincy.

Player safety indeed.

And I’m allowed to comment on it all from a lofty position above you and him.
-
I agree, he’s engaging in the soap opera because he’s paid to. It’s a pretty basic form of entertainment and it’s fine to find it all a bit tacky. But I can’t really blame Carragher for doing it.
-
Being “squeaky” is just his accent, that’s how a lot of people talk in north Liverpool.
-
Which clubs do this successfully? Have a stable DoF, a style of football that doesn’t change when managers change, and consistent success without frequent overhauls of the squad? I’m not suggesting they don’t exist, I’m legit interested.
-
Maybe I’m too Liverpool-centric but we do always sell and buy loads of players within a year of getting a new boss.
-
I’m not saying Hughes is responsible for our current malaise, maybe he is and maybe he isn’t. But I do know that if we were top of the league and the signings were flying, he’d be gladly taking the credit.
-
This doesn’t allow for changes in style though, which are often what is needed after a Head Coach has failed.
-
Haha I like Souey again these days and I don’t mind him calling me a muppet.
-
And who are they to decide a philosophy, when they’ve never coached a team? And what happens when their philosophy is wrong? You have to sack them and rebuild the club, same as you would if a manager had set the philosophy.
-
They don’t have to do it all themselves. They just need to have the power to make the final decision, and to sack s*** coaches and s*** scouts.
-
The players don’t all go when a manager is sacked either. I know the idea with a DoF model is that there is continuity, but it rarely works that way. A new Head Coach comes in and he has different ideas and needs different players.
-
I mainly dislike it because it blurs the line between who is a football person and who is a suit who should sign the cheques and shut his mouth.
