TheBigO Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 19 hours ago, Coco said: Was always going to be difficult to deal with the mess Levein and MacPhee created at the same time as the terrible performance of the youth academy was becoming clear. But Robbie's efforts to improve the squad are ringing alarm bells. And not for the first time - this was the manager who signed shockers like Kitchen, Cowie, Oshiniwa, Sammon, Anderson, Rherras and Reilly. No manager gets them all right but there's a track record building of terrible signings Your examples there are pretty poor to be honest. Firstly, Cowie, Kitchen and even Rherras and Reilly all did a job for us. Cowie was very underrated and Kitchen, christ if he'd stayed, we wouldn't have been relegated, I'll tell you that. But also, every manager has misfiring signings, what is so hard about that for people to understand? Yes, if a manager brings in a bunch and then the team don't win, so Cathro, Levein, have a go. But Robbie made loads of signings, won the Champ by a mile, then came 3rd, then had us 2nd. You can't complain about his signings. You simply can't pick out a few bad signings amongst many, as I say, every single manager on the planet makes bad signings. Rossi, Ozturk, Prince, Gomis, Sow, Jonsen, Pallardo, Djoum, even guys like Augustyn, Isma and Juanma. He made plenty good and impactful signings. Look, not a massive fan of his style, but can't really moan about his signings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EIEIO Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Has the new manager at Dundee United changed their line-up much from when Robbie was in charge? I've no idea, but they seem in no danger of relegation to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d classify a bigger club by the financial power and competitions they compete in. Paolo Sergio went on to manage a team that beat Manchester United in the champions league. Certainly can’t argue against that as a brilliant one off result. Sergio is certainly an enigmas as he was sacked a few months later. A bit of an enigma. Anyway I’m still not convinced. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave us that amazing day but I remember being quite underwhelmed by our league performance that year and the type of football was similar to what we have now.

He would have a better player budget now than back then. But saying that, I always thought Levein would be better with a bigger player budget.

Aye, in Robbie’s favour, he seems to have the right ideas about players (he’s obviously had a few duds) but he does get players in for the positions we need and seems to want to work with a smaller group. Both these things are an important step in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambo Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 700 + votes (so far) and only 56% approval rating. Even for JKB that is a poor return. Does not bode well and further proof that it was a poor decision to appoint him to start with. 56% of this vote when clear at top of league we are going to win. Remember a lot of those 56% have serious doubts as well. Robbie appointment split the support it is fair to say, but everyone got behind him and he had everything going for him, but does not look like he has managed to galvanise the support thus far.

I feel Stendel could have been Sergio #2 if the world (and well his results) hadn't gone to shit. Very likeable and you could definitely have seen mid table league form but a good cup win in our future under Stendel. Where Neilson trumps both Sergio and Stendel for me is he's so consistent at league games that you can confidently predict top 3, and he's started developing into a better cup manager if the SC was anything to go by. The LC not so much obviously, but then what Hearts manager is good at the LC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
