Agree watford for younger players he seems to have a good rep Also agree under Redknapp, Phillips lost his confidence but we knew he always had the skill. As for the sad news of a family member i can understand how he feels however that does not explain the poor performances before. At the beginning of the season i thought if we lost Fer/Phillips/Austin/Sandro/Green that we would be mid table. That did not happen so i expect better. Watching practically all the Championship games on sky i can say that it is a poor league with poor teams. Take Rotherham, they are the worst outfit i have seen in a long time yet they still put 2 goals past us which i could not believe. We seem to make hard work of teams that are not very good (Blackburn/Charlton/Fulham/Forest/Rotherham). I want stability and a manager that will take us in the right direction but sadly CR is not the right person. He is a youth team coach and should work his way up as assistant then manager, not given a three year contract to manage Internationals.
I think there is a very long list of good potential managers to replace CR. I just hope this season isn't too far gone before we do what is necessary.
big Sam. Football will be crap but he will get the respect and we will be harder to beat. If we do lose 4-0 in a game the players would hate his reaction after unlike CR. The good thing about Sam is that the club will have 20+ strikers including Carlton Cole.
Fulham could well be top 6. Ramsey is a good coach, hope he succeeds with us as Manager. I suppose he didn't start Fer do to ? On if can last 90, he's not played in a while,.Who picks- Ramsey I think. The team can compete but not for top 6 without strengthening. Hope we do. And I'm not in Oslo drinking crap beer , when I'm there it's best British I drink, here in Thailand the best I find is Leo. Any more ?!
