Never fills me with confidence when we look for a replacement and find them in our own academy, (or the best candidate happens to be an ex- Norwich player...), so a bit surprised we've given him the role on a permanent basis. Obviously wish him all the best. At least Knapper has seen how he works.
Ben Lee on the QPR game tactics: "In his pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday, Philippe Clement discussed the video analysis work they do before games. He said it’s about “showing [the players] the spaces that we can find during the game [by] analysing [upcoming] opponents.” Speaking post-match, Clement then explained that his side “found the spaces that we were trying to find [and that we] trained on.” The game became "a perfect demonstration of the benefit of good coaching and tactical planning in supporting players to perform at their best. There’s a long way to go, but Philippe Clement is a seriously good coach." https://www.pinkun.com/sport/norwic...-ben-lee-tactical-analysis-qpr-carrow-rd-win/
We need a seriously good coach at Nice. Performances have been so poor that a large number of so called fans attacked and assaulted some of the players earlier. Think I will give the next home game a miss!!!
Surely, living in France, you should support Rouen, it they have a team. Edit:- checked, FC Rouen is in their third tier and called the red devils.
Ipswich drew their replayed game with Blackburn with a 94th minute equaliser. Ipswich should have been down to 10men again but the referee somehow deemed a last man challenge to be a yellow card even though the Blackburn player was heading directly for goal. Blackburn should have also had a penalty. And the equaliser was started from an Ipswich goal kick which should have been a Blackburn corner. Blackburn can have every right to be agrieved, a draw a better result for us though if we are to catch them
It seems incongruous to me to hire a top level head coach and not insist that he has top level staff working with him.
So what if he was? Still incongruous IMO. Standards need to be raised throughout the club, not lowered.
So you know that Declan Rudd is not good enough Robbie? No, you do not, you just have an agenda to castigate the club's decisions.
