Hecky is clueless get Corberán

[FallowfieldBlade]

In case you hadn't noticed, we're not a "Prem" side. So getting a "Prem" manager may be a slight ask.
You're a very good example of there being zero loyalty in football. Just bugger off to Man City/United/Scousers/Arse/Tottingham etc., because they may give you more of what you're looking for.

I went to more away games in league one than I did in the premier league you plonker

Got 50,000 loyalty’s points me Seth

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Can’t even troll coherently. I’d give up and try something else.

He is a decent manager in comparison to the alternatives he doesn’t have much

 

[Charlieblade]

The replacement managers that you suggest are all unemployed for very good reasons. Just because they are available, does not make them suitable replacements.

The players he inherited when he was appointed, have been assessed and filtered. He has moved on the likes of Burke, Mousset, Freeman, Verrips and McGoldrick. He has improved those who remained, such as RND, Lowe, Brewster and of course, your favourite McBurnie.

The U18 side won the national league, and the U23 side have produced players to support the first team squad. He has recruited McCall and promoted Lester as his barroom team. Hard to criticize those facts, for a “development club”.

The only player he has bought outright, defying our poor recruitment reputation, is Ahmedhodzic!
He spent nearly 2m from his player budget on Desso pitches for training. Not bad considering our injuries so far in his first year?

Of course it’s early days yet, but our current league position is no fluke. How many managers could achieve so much, with so little funding in the first year of his appointment?

You represent the entitled fantasy of our current situation. Heckinbottom represents the reality of our position as a club, trying to do the best he can with limited resources.

I am at a loss to explain the present injury issue. PH tried different tactics against Stoke, and it didn’t come off. Yet we still top the league, with a winter break coming up for the World Cup. Regroup and recover is an opportunity to improve. Dare I suggest that our injury list might decline during that period?

So did I. It was a lot easier to get tickets for those.
Also, I gave you some advice which was intended to make you happy, which you rarely seem to be. If calling me a plonker makes you happy, so be it.
I suspect that if Pep was our manager, you'd still find fault with him, and still be miserable.
Silly person.

I’m not slagging hecky off he is a decent manager


However if there are better managers out there why would we not get one ?

If a prem team wanted hecky ( they don’t ) he would be straight off

There is zero loyalty in football and upgrading our manager is the logical thing to do

Who are your proposals?

- the guy who got sacked by Boro having dropped them into the bottom 3.

- the guy sacked at Olympiacos despite then having the biggest budget of all in Greece.

Hardly ringing endorsements of recent form.

If anything Heckingbottom needs to revisist how we train and the intensity with which we train if needed. We can't continue welcoming back players only to be losing different ones almost immediately. It's quite frankly ridiculous and is now beyond the point of bad luck.

That said the medical staff need to up their game too. When a player is out or doubtful, then they are missing for an age. Anel, for instance. Just missing for QPR but definitely the weekend we were told. He's absolutely nowhere to be seen.

Even if they spent all week watching videos and did no contact training I want to be seeing players back and none unavailable.

Hopefully next week we can see Anel, Egan and Norrington-Davies reunited as a back three.

Then, though I'm pleased for the lads, no kids at wing back. Perhaps it can be Osborn on the left and Basham or Baldock or Bogle on the right.

That starts to have a semblance of a defence.

Then it's Norwood and Doyle and then N'Diaye and two others.

Perhaps McBurnie and McAtee.

Pleased for Brewster scoring but he contributed little in open play.

 

[Dickens67]

Fuckinghell...here we are, top of the league in October, and there are genuinely people calling for the manager's head.

I despair.

They are genuinely calling for his head because he hasn't a clue on managing the injury crisis or taking the team forward. He woulntt have a clue if we got promoted back to the Premier League. We were lucky to get to the top of the league but that will fall away. But heyho we must stick with Hecky rather then getting a manager that can take the team forward. People say pep couldn't cope with injury crisis but he would never have let it happen in the first place

If you don’t think corberan / wilder / dyche are better than hecky then I don’t know what to say to you

We have injuries of course but that line up was first team players who would be starting most games the bench was bare bones yes but the starting 11 wasn’t

I would suggest instead of playing an 19 year old centre back at right and a right winger at left back maybe change shape to a 4-3-3 etc

We are already a top heavy team without the injuries so it’s pretty crazy that hecky wouldn’t change to 4 at the back

Hecky doesn’t sign any players cmon it’s united world

Do you really think hecky was watching malmo matches cause I don’t

Is that the manager who hecky is copying and pasting the tactics he made and gave him the job as a u23 manager

A manager isn’t as good as there last 3/4 months tuchel got sacked by Chelsea would I take him of course I would

Hecky has done well for a period of time here he could win the next 5 and I still wouldn’t rate him as a manager because anyone could say just do what you did for the last bloke like he is with wilders 5 at the back

I like hecky but anyone who says he is a quality manager is high on deludamol

We did play 4-3-3 yesterday or 4-3-1-2.

 

[Hull Blade]

There is some serious serial bed wetting going on here, though saner heads have, thankfully, dominated the discussion. Look at the table for starters. Every team will go through a bad patch. Norwich are having there's, again. Burnley and Watfud aren't exactly ripping anyone a new one. We'll be out of our rough patch shortly.

We did change shape and that’s part of the reason we lost, the fact you don’t even know this says everything everybody needs to know.

 

[blade too long]

no Berge no Anel no mcburnie of course we arent as fluent as we were

 

[Davalon]

The only thing we need to change is the injury situation.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Osborn out for 6 weeks then after next week

No wonder Bogle is injured again after nearly a year out

I hope the club realise you don’t have to fill the bench?

Corberan and Wilder are not better than Heckingbottom.

Dyche has played defensive hoofball for last 10 years which would be depressing to watch.

It was 4-3-3 yesterday, didn’t you know?

 

[CarlMcBlade]

Calm down folks. We’ve just picked up one point from 9…and we’re still top of the league. I’ve not worked out yet whether it’s a wank league this year or a very competitive one. But whatever the standard, we’re still in an excellent position to have a great season.

 

[GrayBlade]

There are other attention seekers on here but FallowfieldBlade has taken 'LOOK AT ME ME ME! to a whole new level.

 

[Tom Bott]

I don't know what has happened. Wilder worked his players hard in training, had a fit squad with few injuries.

It's a little thing called luck, under Wilder we had 'good luck' for several seasons. Now we are having 'bad luck' (on the injuries front).

It averages out over time, but you can't predict it.

 

[Tom Bott]

Fallowfield is an easy target as he puts it out there.
Far more concerning are the people jumping on him because he raises a valid issue regarding the manager, our injury situation which is beyond abnormal and choice of formation. Sacking him is clearly not going to happen, but is it a cardinal sin to criticise what is now 1 point from 9. Fallowfield isn't the problem, but something at Bramall Lane is for us to have a top 2 finish eleven out injured. I expect to get pelters for this post but unless I've missed something opinions on here are fine and don't have to align with the sheep.

See my post above.

When you are having good luck everyone assumes this to be the norm, but when you are having bad luck many look for a scapegoat.

Mr Field of Fallow sees it as an attention seeking opportunity.

Did you watch the game yesterday?

Khadra wasn't in defence. We played 4 at the back.

 

[Stretch]

Well I have slept on this suggestion, and I still think it's ludicrous.

Sacking a manager with a 53% win rate (current spell), who has us at the top of the league, in spite of 1/3 of his first team out injured, would be crackers even by our standards.

If we keep losing once our first choice defence is back, and start losing ground on the automatic spots, then I think we can re-visit.

In the meantime, I think we are more likely to see other clubs try to poach him.

 

[Snowflake]

no Berge no Anel no mcburnie of course we arent as fluent as we were

Nor as tall when defending corners !!

 

[djbaldken]

My point is , is that the qualify of our players are carrying the managers deficiencies

Hecky has achieved very little in his managerial career

It would be harsh to sack hecky for say coberan or dych

But I couldn’t care less they are much better managers and you do what’s best for the football club

Sacking Slav after we beat reading was seen as a shock decision but that worked out very well

Indeed, it did work out very well. We went from a manager with a 36% win rate (Slav) to a manager with a 55% win rate...................................if only I could remember his name?
Who was it now?............................ Oh yes, I remember , the guy you want to be sacked because he hasnt a scooby, Paul Heckingbottom.
The guy who has taken us to the top of the league.

So Corberan took Huddersfield from relegation fodder to the play off final.
Wheres Corberan now? And where s Huddersfield now?

You really need to think before you type.

 

[Tom Bott]

The question that really needs answering is why are all those players out injured. Please don't say bad luck or any other nonsense non answer.

Do you remember when Paul Coutts broke his leg, was it the manager who kicked his leg and broke it ?

Did you see the QPR defender pulling Sander Berge so hard he ended up twisting his knee.

Was that Paul Heckingbottom in disguise ?

So yes, bad luck as you say is nonsense, and your 'theory' of whatever is FACT.

Football is a contact sport and shit happens, bad luck..

Obviously the manager is not directly to blame, certainly not for injuries sustained in competitive situations. We have as many out through injuries picked up away from match day, they are genuine cause for concern and asking questions about them seems entirely reasonable. There is so much at stake this season . We are good enough with a close to full squad available to finish top 2. If we fail to go up this season 2 things happen. we lose all our best players and our income drops quite an amount next season. Not to get promoted because we are getting oplayers injured and unavailable away from matchday surely needs addressing.
