Apart from a couple of dodgy games re positioning and reacting to players coming at him this guy is as good as any we have now. Very athletic; I always thought he needed to be coached by better people than this club had.
Does that say more about Mouyokolo, or more about the crazy tactics Phil Brown began to use, that ultimately cost him his job?
I think Mouyokolo played every game under Dowie, whilst Sonko was dropped for all but 2/3. (I await a Percy comment about how clueless Dowie was - which is true - and how this renders my point invalid)
Is that if he can be turned away from his regular (nay daily) brown nosing session on the Paul Duffen/ Tony Warner Twitter sites?
I met him a few times in Beverley, he was very friendly and a genuine nice bloke, my mate works in a shop (won't name it) and said that Mouyokolo would take time out just to chat even if some of the other staff didnt know him.
Dowie was a clueless funny-looking ****, but I won't disagree that Mouyokolo was better than Sonko. As I said (but everyone chooses to ignore) Brown didn't get everything right. I'm sure he was a top bloke, I'm also sure he got paid a lot. Not that I begrudge him that. Nice to see you've taken me off your ignore list though. Thanks.
Can't argue with a play-off final win and two years (could have been more) of Premiership football though. Just saying.
What i did like about Mouyokolo is that he was prepared to fight for the cause and do his best everytime he went on the pitch, which is more than can be said for some people that season. If he was earning a good weekly wage (not sure what it was, it might have been less than JB, Macca etc) he went out and did his job to warrant picking up his wages. I think it was the defeat to Burnley when he looked as pissed off as the fans were with that defeat, and i think he may even have applauded the fans who had remained. If we had 11 players with the same fight and passion as him then there's every chance we could have stayed up.
