Yeah we should be romping away with the league with the amount of resources he was given and the world class chelsea academy players we have.
THIS VINDICTIVE BASTARD ESCAB WILL PROBABLY SAY TO SLUTS YOU SIGNED A CONTRACT YOU'RE STAYING AND IF IT RUINS YOUR CV AND REPUTATION I DONT GIVE A 4X.
slutsky has been delt a **** hand but his team selections at times have been questionable. Before last night he'd had to make half time changes 3 out 4 home games (im not sure if he did last night). That to me tells me a lot, the question is and i honestly dont think theres a decent experienced manager out there that would come here.
It sounds so positive when you put it like that but put the other way the Allams will have got all they're owed and have made loadsamoney on top. While the assets on the pitch don't amount to much anymore.
Quite frankly, Leonid has all my sympathy, he has been led right up the garden path and in to West Park.
I respect your opinion (I think) but he is completely out of his depth in his role of manager of Hull City AFC in the Championship. Did I talk about romping away with this league whatever that means?
Myself, I don't know why you have to keep repeating that fact Evers old chap, but I'm glad you do. This squad was assembled to keep us in the division, no more, no less - our present owners have zero ambition to bankroll a squad to get us to the PL, they're now in full claw-back mode. Kids, loans, freebies and punts on players who might become saleable assets is what we have. Those blindly repeating the mantra ''he'll only get money for us in the PL'' are living in an alternate world to the rest of us. This is as good as it gets, it's a rocky, downhill ride from now on.
We can only hope that we are still in the Championship at the end of next season when the Allams hopefully **** off when the parachute money finishes - but as long as they do one I don't really care where we are - as high as possible obviously but getting rid of those **** pipes (nod to GLP for that name) will be sufficient.
I know English isn't his first language but I'm confused when he says 15 matches is the right time for a decision but then says 15 matches isn't long enough to build a team. All I really care about are results, I don't care about how good he is with the media or whether some here don't like his pacing the touchline (lol, who cares?).
Slutsky has got to accept some culpability for results and performances but he's been sold down the river by the root cause of our problems: Ehab. Slutsky's managerial pedigree speaks for itself but the Championship doesn't submit to reputations and Slutsky is obviously getting to grips with the demands of an unfamiliar, extremely competitive league. This bedding in period normally afforded to new managers seems to have been made 100 times worse by the clusterfuck of off-field preparation we have had for the last 18 months. There seems to have been little guidance or encouragement to help Slutsky adapt to his new surroundings and that falls down to Ehab. I think Slutsky is a decent bloke who has deserved better but it's difficult to see him here beyond Christmas, whether that's Ehab's call or him falling on his sword. It's a shame as with decent backing and a positive environment around the club he'd have had a much better chance to show his true worth.
This should be more like Slutusky..Who next ? Who would come in after him knowing the position at the club and the lack of resource. Its a non-starter. I am told that Larsson, Dicko and Irvine were not Leo buys. He never wanted them, but has been 'told' to play them...Make of that, what you will. Its about time our glorious leader got down off his pony and told us the secret of his success. How to turn a premier league side into a League 1, here we come, bunch of also rans.... if Slutsky goes and I think it will happen soon, maybe Deano with help from Ashbee. The dream team!!!
Alex Neil had no money going into Preston. Brought in a couple of freebies. Knows the division. Got that hunger and drills his players. It's utter rubbish to say no one would come here. Warnock went to Rotherham when they were dead and buried. He took on Cardiff when they were in trouble. With the squad and team we have slutsky isn't getting the best out of them. That simple.
He's full of contradictions...I listened to an interview on Viking before the Boro game. He didn't seem to be making much sense. Talking about the chances we created at the Forest game, then bemoaning the lack of chances...Very odd. I think he's about to crack.....Thrusting a man with limited English skills into the cut and thrust of the champ and at a club in a downward spiral was very naughty.
Slutsky's been shafted by the biggest knob in football, although ironically one who has a tiny dick. (Read that literally or metaphorically, I really don't give ****). If we sack him, we sack him and move on. (Where to I ask myself?) Personally I'd keep him in place and bung him a few quid for the January transfer window. Ask him to focus on building a team for next season. The security blanket is that there are three teams worse than us this year. I'd also sell Grosicki. He'll have another good game this season. It'll be after Christmas but before New Year. Oh, I'd also send back the Chelsea prima donna set with a note to that Russian **** saying 'thanks for nothing mate, your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries'.
