jock _turd Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Mr Elwood P said: The Manchester United players were massively underperforming creating a huge opportunity for improvement. The Hearts players based on league position and Cup runs are not massively underperforming so the potential for improvement would be limited but not impossible. A new coach could also have the reverse effect of making things worse. Neilson to Cathro being a prime example. The background staff and entire ethos at the club has been changed under Solskjaer. He has also brought Pogba back into the team. We don't have any World Cup winners currently not getting a game. Everyone yesterday was agreed the lineup was a lot more positive and attacking but it didn't translate, apparently, into the performance on display. What are you slavering about this is the very point I am making. Mourinho had exactly the same players available as Solskjaer does ... but he did not know how to play them and the team suffered... exactly the same thing can happen at any other team... stop flogging your horse its dead! Solskjaer has taken exactly the same players Mourinho had and is delivering a different and better brand of football end of. There is no reason whatsoever why a new manager at Hearts could not do exactly the same. Edited March 10, 2019 by jock _turd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirky Jambo Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 38 minutes ago, Mr Elwood P said: We've lost one Cup game since July so I would say we've excelled. Look at Cup exits over the years. Any cup win is a good cup win regardless of opposition. Most teams that don’t win the cups will only lose two games, I would say we get pass marks in the cups this year so far, and if we go out to either Partick or ICT then it has to be classed as a failure on the whole. ideal scenario for me this season is Levein leaves us with a cup win as his legacy, like Sergio did.

Bazzas right boot Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) The man Utd example is horrible. OGS was a very successful coach before he went there, he'd won titles in Norway. No manager of that calibre will come to us. If we can attract a young manager with his playing career and his management record of I'd be all for it. Aligned To the fact that Man Utd, compared to budgets and player spend were way under performing he had a large margin for improvement, we are one place behind ours, the man u example is horrific.

The whole point of forums like this is for people to air their views and read counter arguments surely? Agreed however this one has been done more times that a Leith hooker. It goes round and round. Every time there is a loss its the same thing over and over again. Same people waiting in the wings to rehash the same boring negative arguments. There really is nothing more to say on the subject but the same people will say the same thing again and again. Its been done to death and as I pointed out above nothing will be done with regard to Leveins position unless something drastic happens like not making the split before anything (potentially) would happen. This will not stop the same posters saying the same thing over and over again. Perhaps if I keep saying the same boring thing over and over again it might sink in just how many times the same thing has been said over and over again? Oh and I forgot something over and over again. "opinions" which people are entitled to. We know their opinions as we have heard them over and over again. You getting me now sport?

The other reason I’m not keen on a knee jerk change is new managers tend not to put their faith in youth as its too risky, which could undo a lot if good work with the academy.

Levein handled last season's transition well, making us harder to beat and getting our derby mojo back. He then started this season amazingly well but lost that momentum with injuries to all our best players. That said we're still just a few points off Europe and with a potentially great cup run on the cards. He's definitely done enough to deserve to see out his contract IMO. If the change people want is winning, attractive football, what teams in Scotland regularly do that and which manager is guaranteed to deliver that?

I get it, even if I don’t agree. One thing that’s been said a couple of times, is that Levein tries to play a system that doesn’t work when we don’t have good enough players to implement it.

Maybe not right enough, just trying to have a reasoned debate on the subject. Every manager’s signings are hit or miss, and you can’t realistically get it spot on in one season, you need a couple of years to see who the good ones are, keep them and then keep them and add to them. Levein has already re-signed a few of our good players, a few of the serious failures will leave, and if we can add a few more really good players, then suddenly the system he wants to play starts looking a lot more entertaining.

It is a worry that we might have to try and replace Naismith and Djoum. That is not an easy task. The market we operate in, it’s not something you just go and do. Hopefully we keep Naismith and only have to try and replace Djoum, Inthink that’s more feasible than trying to replace the pair. Keep Naismith and extend Haring’s Deal, on top of the deals we’ve done already, and I don’t think we will be too far away, with just three really good signings, mainly in the wide and central attacking areas.

Do you enjoy watching the football Al ? How many key players were missing in November, and since? They are gradually coming back into the team but some are taking more time than others to get back in the groove after a long lay-off. I wish it were different but that is the reality. I have not particularly enjoyed the football recently but understand the difficulties we've had. Too many on here who appear to have an excessive sense of entitlement.

Levein handled last season's transition well, making us harder to beat and getting our derby mojo back. He then started this season amazingly well but lost that momentum with injuries to all our best players. That said we're still just a few points off Europe and with a potentially great cup run on the cards. He's definitely done enough to deserve to see out his contract IMO. If the change people want is winning, attractive football, what teams in Scotland regularly do that and which manager is guaranteed to deliver that? That's not what I said and IMO it's not what people who want change believe is really achievable, certainly not if the foreseeable future , with this current squad. As for your question, I don't know why you're asking me, it's not what I posted about. CL will IMO get to see out his contract for the reasons you set out.
