i Just stated what Acun said it's my club he never said it's ours he called us supporters which we are.

so on that basis, we should be okay with it if he changes the name, afterall whats in a name
we can always change it back
 
The Championship is classed as the 6th best league in the world and for good reason, i would go as far to say it is alot harder and more of an endurance then the other leagues above them, the bundesliga 2 is not anywhere near the quality of the championship niether is the quality of the players, the strength of the teams in that league is not as strong by a long distance as the championship so to compare Walter to Rosenior is not a fair comparison at all.

Now Walter may be very successful here depending on the backing he gets but he also going to be under a lot of pressure straight from the off he will have 1 season and if he fails he will be gone maybe even sooner if he has a very bad start after listening to Acun and i suspect this is the road the club will now travel down, lets make no bones about this he is also listening to other people and has to answer to some it is not our club it is his as he said.

I’m always against this “quality of the league” argument when it comes to managers. It’s not like the players where they have to adapt to physicality etc.

Also that’s a real knock on the bundesliga 2. There’s some quality teams down in that division. A lot that go up tend to fair quite well.

the bundesliga 2does have a few strong teams, but the championship is a far tougher league

plus the rest and training recovery times between games is massively different

we have to play 12 more games, thats massively less time to recover and train and all sorts

i love german footbal and for fans its the best in the world bar none, but german football in terms of quality is heavily top ended
bayern dominate it

this season is leverkusens first ever title!
 
In patches we did play superb football, but the majority of our home form and performances until after the stoke game were pretty boring and tedious, the stats and facts don't lie. We just have to now hope/trust that acun has made the correct choice and moving forward we improve
I just don't think that's true. I mean, I do think it's true that it's your view, but I don't think it's based on much. Most home games I attended (which was all of them, in all competitions, bar one) we played patiently but had periods of attacking verve and intense pressure. Did we finish our chances regularly enough? Absolutely not. Did we make enough chances? On occasions, no. Did we play genuinely badly on a regular basis and serve up this odd characterisation of sheep-counting every fortnight at 3pm? Absolutely not.

I've stayed quiet on this because I'm not into stupid and pointless internet tos and fros. But this continued insistence that "the majority of our home form and performances were ... boring and tedious", or versions of that quote, just doesn't stand up to my scrutiny nor the scrutiny of most I know who attend home games.
 
There is always the chance he adapts things slightly for this league, but it looks like it will be fun all the same. Whether it can deliver a promotion or not who knows, probably depends largely on the bit of magic dust that comes with right place right time.

I never said that did i i would not be happy but lets face it he can do what he wants as he stated it's his club but i very much doubt he would ever do something as stupid as try that after the last fiasco.

Suppose there is the "intensity of our league / cup schedule argument," which clearly came as a shock to Sluts and Shota, but to counter that, other German / other European coaches have coped

Don’t disagree but I think any decent manager would look at it and adjust accordingly. From a player perspective I could get the concern but you’re talking about coaches who will find it easier to adapt
 
That's a good sign. Begs the question of why he wasn't able to get them up over three seasons though.

It is a good sign, they certainly create a lot of chances but he's going to have to coach our players to shoot more often.

It looks like a lot of our players won't have much trouble adapting to his style. Though it would be typical if Rosie cited Walter as one of the inspirations behind his style. <laugh>

Yeah that’s more my point. Meyler on the 1904 pod made a great point that a while ago it was harder work in the championship. Now the games adapted and it’s less direct it is less of a slog. Modern managers from abroad can come in.
 
yeah I watched the same game. It’s Rosenior on heroin. I think he’d actually end up liking Allsop as well unless he brought in his own GK
If he's Rosenior on steroids, he'll think Allsop is on sedatives / chill pills (too laid back, lack of urgency / speed of thought)
