Shota's done one...

Somebody who understands that in the Championship you've got to graft to earn the right to play

 

Seems like a decent bloke. Doesn’t seem to have the tools capable to compete in this league. Cut and dry really. Better to part ways now while we’re still in the infancy of the season.

 

Shota preferred 433, was he given the tools to do it?

 

The ex Huddersfield chap who got sacked In Greece. seems to the biggest rumour on twitter (not saying it’s true)

 

Baz is still churning out articles about him being given a stay of execution and what he needs to do to turn it around

 

It's the name that seems to be gathering pace from all angles

 

Did he leave when they were relegated or did he just get them to the play offs

 

I think Corberan got them to the play-offs - it was the German manager whose name escapes me who left when they were relegated

 

David Wagner

 

I think Shota needs to realise that in the championship you need to score more goals than the enemy and if you let them score more goals than you then you probably not going to win.

 

That's him - cheers

 

I'd say yes he was. Awful luck with injuries, but still. And 100% he will have had a big say in what he wanted / needed. Along with Acun, he spectacularly misjudged and then unfortunately just didn't seem to have the attributes to get anywhere near the best out of what he did have available. Sad day if he is now gone - just like with Slutsky, I really wanted him to succeed (like I guess nearly all of us did).

 

He said many times that he wanted to play 5 at the back, despite bringing in several attacking wingers, no wing backs and only having 4 recognised centre halves in the squad.

The recruitment absolutely does suggest some variation of a 4-5-1 was always intended but Shota never said that.

 

Yeah, I never trusted him after that whole boat incident with Natalie Wood!

 

But as I am sure you know that was Robert not David.

 

That’s him and then made it even worse by giving the world Hart to Hart. Don’t think he was much better as a football manager!

 

The same owner who sacked Coberan is allegedly looking at Steve Coopers performance this season as Forest manager

 

You would imagine that’s where Dyche would end up.

 

Most likely

 

It’s the right time for Shota to go.

He’s enjoyed some fantastic support from the terraces up to this point, even though I’ve never read or heard of anyone who seemed to truly believe he could do it, at any point of his time here. If he leaves now, it’ll save any unpleasantness. He can go with everyone’s blessing and well wishes.

Simply put, we need a manager who can turn the ship ‘round – and the common logic would be someone who has a track record in this division.

If the regime have an open mind, I think, given Acun’s drive and vision, we could attract an excellent manager.

Here’s hoping.
