New Head Coach

Agents ruin football and should be banned in all honesty. Imagine just turning 17 earning 3.5k pw playing for Sunderland in and around the first team in a decent league. You'd be f*****g buzzin man.

 

He's on gardening leave marra

 

He certainly knows how to buy and grow weeds!

 

How would they have kept that quiet?

Surely not?

 

Imagine the fume if he came out and did a season review without a new HC appointed

 

Really...??

 

RTG new thread saying to watch this space for "Regis ale Bris" Lorient head coach. He looks so much like coleman

 

I hope he has a property abroad then...

 

Di Canio's Knees made the thread, I know he got spot on info regarding all the new kits

 

30% win record

 

Yeah, relegated this season too, doesn't look inspiring at all. He finished 10th 22/23 with them

 

Hell of a name that mind, I’m in

 

Sounds like horsecrap.

 

That poster is usually a good one like and has got plenty right with the new kits (aware that is two different departments like).

Someone mentioned to me we'd been looking at a french coach the other day too. Who knows.

I'm still hoping for Cifuentes or Maric

 

I just cannot see us going for a guy who has two years in management and one of them resulted in relegation.

You/the poster may well be right but I'll have a hard time believing it until it is made public.

 

He's the Norwegian candidate

 

Don't know much about Regis le Bris so I've done a very short amount of research. Two seasons ago, he was getting plaudits and had Lorient fairly high up the table.

The article below talks about their tactics being unique in some respects but it appears that they were a low possession, direct side. They were, however, trying to find a way to counteract the high press but this basically meant knocking the ball around at the back to try and draw the press onto them and then exploiting the spaces that this left.

It suggests that le Bris is thinking about the game, and not just following what is currently de rigeur, by looking to find a different way to play. It also suggests that the football might not be that great to watch. If he is genuinely a candidate, it further suggests that the club don't know what kind of playing identity they want as it's another leap to another kind of coach and at odds, to some extent, with the character of our squad.

The obvious caveat to this is that, if he's a good coach, he won't necessarily set up in the same way with us.

 

Nice summary, good work!

 

Really ?

 

Le Bris can **** off like.

Categorically do not want him.

I know Bayern have just taken relegated Kompany, but I don't want us taking a relegated manager.
