vegas-voss Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Just how much is he involved in this football project cause he seems fairly hands on on the process of everything at the club and we have been horseshit since he has been here.I may be way off and Levein is still ultimately responsible but to me he seems a large part of the problem. Quite happy to take some flack here and be proven to be way off just a feeling I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I can’t answer your question but our record since he’s came to the club is nothing short of appalling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Famous 1874 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Definitely a major problem. Him, Daly and Fox take majority of the training sessions. Probably spend the whole time fannying about with fancy set piece moves that have only ever worked once (Killie away is the only one I remember that we scored from). Chats a good game but think he is just as clueless as the other clowns in the dugout and should be punted with the rest of them and the board.

i8hibsh Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 No point whatsoever in this guy. Which is quite ironic considering he spends the entire game just pointing at the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when he came he said his job was to put into simple terms for the players what they wanted from after the feedback from analysis and stuff. Honestly the guy seems like a good scout as we have signed some decent players but other than that I think he fails at his job.Again I might be well off though.

i8hibsh Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Levein, Mcphee and the other dugout duds along with the players should have their worth and success based on one thing and one thing alone. Results He is one major failure just like Levein, the other dugout duds and 95% of every single player to disgrace our pitch the past 5 years.

kila Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Not convinced by MacPhee being an assistant manager but then it is Levein's master tactics he is having to implement. The style of play we're seeing existed before MacPhee arrived. I do like MacPhee and he has good contacts in the football world. I've said it a lot but I really think he'd do a good job as DoF. He is also someone Ann knows well so she doesn't have to rely upon Levein to guide her in the football world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it though I seem to remember that Austin is in charge of all computer analysis 9n opponent's and to me the tactics are set up purely on this feedback and it's how it's all change from game to game.

Move MacPhee upstairs, bin any idea of a rigid boot room philosophy around succession planning , replace Levein with a new head coach and let them bring their own backroom staff.

Coburg Hearts Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 How long before the ballboys/girls are told to gtf? Everybody else connected with Hearts has and it's becoming rather tiresome. I want a new manager in, and as soon as possible, but people are using any and every excuse to put the boot into not just CL, which is fair enough, but the club as a whole. This must be a wet dream for all the trolls/vermin on this forum, and there are many, though most of the posts are, admittedly, from Hearts supporters. I know in the current climate this post will be ripped apart, but it's the way I feel. Never did believe in throwing out the baby with the bath water. Rant over and out.
