Did McCann leave or was he sacked. Posters on here who say they can do better than the manager don't count.
The very last thing we need is another manager with absolutely no experience of managing a team in the Championship.
Don't get me wrong -I'm hoping what you say will be the case, but I was just speculating in case Acun is reluctant to pull the trigger even if we do get beaten by Luton
To be honest it would have made more sense to just cut the cord this week to give us 2 weeks to find the right manager and settle him with the squad but it also feels too soon.
If he's just going about it in his own bizarre fashion and it isn't going well, it's obviously going to be a concern
Err fergie is a classic example of turning it around and what about nigel Pearson when we got relegated from the premier league instead of Leicester. Probably plenty more. However this won't be one
Why give a bloke more time just to lose ground on anything remotely near a chance of midtable let alone play offs, the longer we keep shota, the harder the job will be for the incoming manager. I just don't get it, he is naive, and left wanting in every department
He doesn't fly half way across europe to watch every game because he's got nothing better to do. His credibility is at stake if this continues which is everything in his world. Apparently conversations were had prior to yesterdays game. Who is to say that Acun didn't "suggest" to him to make those team changes? He's made all that effort to bring those players in.... do you really think he can then resist meddling if things aren't going well? Most of us were calling for Vale yesterday because of his reputation rather than having seen him play. However Shota would have seen him close up in training and chose not even to put him on the bench four days earlier.
We do have players who can stop the rot. If he sticks with the 433. Brings mcloughlin in for fig and jones as defensive midfield with woods and tufan( harsh on slater i know) replace vale with longman and i think we might see a bit more fight. If this goes wrong too, sack me and bring in nigel adkins
Not really sure which part of my post you thought you were disagreeing with there. Think we both agree that yesterday was **** for lots of reasons and it doesn't look good. My post was specifically defending Seri when someone said he achieves nothing, which is easily disprovable because he factually creates far more chances than anyone else even though he plays nowhere near the goal.
Seri, like Tufan, is very good on the ball. However, off the ball, it’s like playing with 9 men. This could sorta be mitigated by having a physical ball-winner who constantly sits deep and protects the back four, but we don’t have that so the current midfield need to work much harder off the ball. We really can’t afford to have two luxury players in midfield who don’t do anything when not in possession.
agree, we are in this situation because we have a manager who before Hull City had never managed in the Championship or any league in this country. Bizarrely before Acun actually owned the club he announced Shota would be the next manager of Hull City.Based on what, his record of managing teams in Israel & Uzbekistan ? Shota does not have the presence to mange this group of players, he's too softly spoken & I fear the players do not respect him. I remember a Liverpool player saying when Klopp walks into the dressing room it immediately goes quiet & no one talks. Is that happening when Shota walks in ? We need a strong manager who has managed in the Championship before to drill the players & sort this mess out.
