Guest ToqueJambo Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) If Levein had got Washington, Walker, Naismith, Souttar and Halkett back, plus a new signing (he always liked Boyce), we'd be safe around 8th by now probably. But the mood around the place would still be terrible - even worse than us being bottom bizarrely - so on balance I'm glad we have Stendel. He really needs to get us winning though. He made the tough decisions around Berra and Whelan and needs to make another one around the goalie position.

His only win was against Paul Heckingbottom's Hibs. We'd also scored 1 goal in his last 5 games, a defensive howler from Rangers. Sure, he'd presumably have won every game Sarcasm, but we we were without Naismith, Souttar, Halkett, Washington and Walker for pretty much all that. They are back, Boyce and 3 others have signed. Imo You can't say, but he had to go certain parts of the support had turned toxic. Stendel has us playing better and it's more exciting, with a bit of luck and less individual brain farts we will Surley pick up points.

The rot had set in waaay before Levein was axed, it was well past alarm bells or big flashing warning signs, the longer he stayed the harder it would then be to turn this season around. Aw aye, and Levein is actually still at the club Your first statement is factually incorrect. False fact of the day as your opening gambit. When CL left we weren't bottom.

Stendel has made mistakes in trying to rectify it, notably persisting with a keeper who can't keep goal, but there have at least been signs of life. Under Levein we were terrible and getting worse.

hmfc_liam06 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 14 hours ago, Saint Jambo said: Are you kidding? If you reversed those two games, Stendel would have had no league wins from his first 8 game. We'd still be bottom of the league. Our points per game would still have been worse than under either Levein or McPhee this season. You wouldn't have been anxious with 1 win and 6 points from 10 league games, sitting bottom of the league in mid-February, and with just 12 games to go, just because the 2-1 win against Rangers was two games ago not four? The excuses being made for Stendel are getting to the point they are worse than under Levein. It just looks bad because of the order of the games? No, his results are a total horror show, whatever way you choose to dress them up. And while some of the football has undoubtedly been more entertaining than under Levein, some of it has still been horrible. The home game to St Johnstone, the away game to Hamilton, the away game to Ross County, the away game to Falkirk, and the Celtic game last night have all been awful performances, every bit as devoid of entertainment as Levein teams used to serve up. 2 of those games were pretty much as he was just in the door. 1 of them was played in 50mph wind, great football on show all round. 1 of them at Parkhead, where we actually competed for the first half, but a venue we never play well at. Bash on though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Football takes its natural course. We were dreadful a year ago, never mind up until the downgrading of CL. We were sinking quickly, toiled to score and keep them out at the other end. Dour football with no sign of hope. Manager loses his job, that’s how it goes a lot of the time. What happens after has nothing to do with wondering what may have happened if you kept the old manager on!

He was brought in to improve our goalkeeping position but he's actually much worse than the players he replaced. Send him back to Old Trafford and if they complain send them a video nasty of his time here. I fear for Daniel's and Hearts future if he plays him tomorrow and it goes wrong.
