Well like I said, it'd have to be a big manager, or that Will Still bloke potentially, to go some way to patching up what on the surface looks a really poor decision.

I still can't get my head around the new 3 year deal for Rosenior if it was this was the goal.

The new 3yr deal was to protect ilus incase he did very well etc, plus give LR a confidence boost to go out and deliver on his KPIs. I doubt LR wasn't aware of what was expected

Comments above suggest he wasn't if he was planning fan forums and other events over the next months.

When he was interviewed... a question was raised about LR being poached... his response was 'he's a good coach'... he didn't say he's not going anywhere, or he's an exceptional coach, I thought it a bit hmmmmm at the time...

It's the clip I just posted. He specifically says "We like Liam, we like the job he's doing". Didn't need to say that.

I did think the contract was incredibly early. I though now would’ve been perfect though<laugh>
 
I was pretty happy with Giles before he picked up his knock. I don't think him and Jaden work well together and that prevents us from seeing the best of Giles.

I agree, and this is a good point. They never really struck up a fluid partnership and that is probably a bigger thing than either wide players individual ability.

Two average wide players with a great understanding will always perform better than two high level players playing as individuals.

As a recent example just look how good Fleming was when playing with KLP, he’s not managed to perform anywhere close to that level since.

Do you expect a change in direction now, I mean so far all discussions were made according to Liam's needs, but from now on transfers will be in the hands of Acun and I do not expect a manager decision soon, it will be on hang for a month at least.
 
Spending £4.5m on Giles without a system change would be poor business imo. His stats have shown that we don’t maximise his ability with how we play.

2021/22 - 10 assists in 32
2022/23 - 12 assists in 48
2023/24 - 1 assist in 17

I wonder if 23/24 would be different if Delap was fit as I don't think his play supplemented Tufan or Cavalho

Well this thread can be closed for a few weeks until we have a new manager in place!!!! No transfer business will be done in the short term now
