    Ramazani is not wanted by Farke - I hope we loan him out just in case Farke is shown the door, I am sure there is a good player in there

    Okafor gives us options and as the team is full of injury prone players I think it might be wise to keep JH

    I think there’s a player there as well, I certainly rate him above Harrison.

    Rammy is another Schmidt. Farke has deffo seen or knows something we don't.
    Watched something on youtube this morning and Rammy does as well on stats offence/defence as any other player when on the pitch.
    seems to me it could be more a off the field issue? clutching at straws but if this kid is coming in which deffo looks the case today something must give unless we going to overload on wide men.

    Looks like an entourage. That never bodes well. They could be mates along for the ride though.

    This might bring back a memory for some. After a disastrous start this season wakefield afc gave two coaches the sack and this guy to replace them.

    Have to admit if he had been on one of those semi regular guess the former player posts that we have on here every now and then, I'd have struggled to name him, although I remember the name.

    Farke has form with this though but what makes it worse is that it was him who sanctioned the signing of Ramazani and Schmidt which means we wasted a few million quid and would hope to get it back. But he brought in loan players like Djed Spence who wasn’t used so Spurs brought him home, he hardly used Anthony he is still doing well at Burnley and we also brought in a very good right back who always created and looked good but he was coming off the bench behind 17yo Archie Gray Connor Roberts….. I think he has a problem with a certain type of player maybe because they ask questions?

    I think we’ve now seen what he saw in Schmidt… and I think he made it clear last year what his problem was with Ramazzani. I quite like largie as a potential impact sub if chasing a game, but Farke doesn't trust him to do the job he’s asked to.

    The answer is no mate but I’ll get off his back and change my view when he keeps us in the premier league. Cant be no fairer than that can I. I will be fair about him and the results he gets and even if we lose a game but played well I will be happy as it’s not easy in this league. His tactics will work or they won’t

    Bielsa who has won one promotion in what thirty years and Farke has three.

    You could argue he had a lot less quality in the squad and managed a 9th placed top flight finish.

    I obviously hope Farke is more successful and the board back him if he is

    Bielsa had an average championship team and made them look the best in the division followed up by finishing 9th in the league the first season back.

    Farke inherited the best team in the championship and failed on his first attempt despite having the best team and season two he still had the best team and won promotion as expected.

    If we are counting past performances with other clubs then you forgot to include Warnock - You can't add Farkes two promotions elsewhere it makes no sense

    Makes no difference. Succes is success. You could also argue Farke inherited more problems but their records over their careers is really what you should compare. Anyway it doesn't bother me as great time for both and Id prefer to have Farke in PL at this time
