D4nny_ Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I actually feel a bit sorry for him. Been thrown in to the wolves and I don’t think he has what it takes to come out leading the pack.

gnasher75 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I thought it was a pretty good response to a stupid question. Quite like what I have seen of him in interviews so far.

neilnunb Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 I just wonder how long the press will give him the "he needs a massive rebuild" sympathy vote.

They were signing players with nobody in charge. Unsure if he can make recommendations or whatever but he's not in control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister T Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 The great thing is they can't sack him till at least Christmas otherwise it's an admission of making a total arse of things. And we all know they don't like admitting things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) The only way he's staying in Scotland the whole season will be if there's another lockdown. He's complaining about signings but he's signed three for about £12m and they all looked shite. Seems like a likeable big bloke but he's going to be eaten alive. The thing is he seems pretty feisty so this could be very entertaining. Celtic press conferences should be worth tuning into.

Bongo 1874 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Needs time but feel he might turn them around, has players at the club that don't want to be there. Mcgregor been made captain but doesn't want to be there,French Eddie doesn't want to be there. Massive rebuild but needs time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey1874 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 It's easy to say but he showed a certain nativity or maybe arrogance. And maybe under estimating Scottish football. He's bought Japanese player Kyogo Furuhashi for around £5 million. A 79 minute substitution which helped turn a bit of a resurgence into dominance as he was brushed aside. A big part of Hearts win.

On way back from the game, so haven't seen any of his interviews. Did he give us any credit? For all the complaints about the lack of signings, the difference in values and wages between the two teams today would be mind blowing. Their defence looked petrified of the ball. Don't feel he has done a good job of instilling confidence in his team, repeatedly going on about how bad the players are and that they need lots of jew signings. And if Neilson played a game with that much possession, creating so few clear cut chances he'd rightly be getting crucified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_T Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 It was a real poison chalice, they need a new goalkeeper, a whole new defence and two of his best attacking players in Edouard and Christie will likely be sold before the end of August. I think he comes across well, the scale of the job required to rebuild them is daunting to any head coach in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
