4 5 1 boring negative ****e football

in sousa we trust.

[swanleyhoop]

Yep, cos the games last season without Vine and Buzz were great, weren't they? Especially when our form dropped off at the end of the season.
And I LOVED those games where we had all the excitement of shipping late goals.
Great fun.

I liked De Canio, but the comparison is unbalanced and unfair.

Not much to choose between him and Sousa, methinks.

[rangersroar]

If my memory serves me well Di Canio had a fully fit squad most of the time, where Sousa has had to deal with major injuries to some of our key players. Our defence last season was poor, panic defending and late goals ruined many games. This season we have looked solid at the back, this is down to Sousa, (41 games played and only 38 goals conceded), and if he had been given some good strikers, who knows where we would have finished.

God more propaganda from the usual suspects

I'd personally wait till next season to reserve judgement for Sousa. When he has a fully fit and even better squad...then let's see...

For the purists, Sousa has been in charge for 25 games, and we have conceded only 21 goals. Is that not good ?

ok so decanio had routledge, gorkss, cerny, taarabt, lopez, miller, helguson did he?
He would have worked wonders with parejo, ledesma and dicarmine as well.

[big ade]

why not bring back houston and rioch

Cerny is average, Tarrabt and Lopez have only just arrived, and Helguson, Miller and Di Carmine are poor. Parejo and Ladesma couldn't cut it in the Championship. So, we are left with Routledge and Gorkss, who are the only decent additions he has had to work with for any length of time.

as i said dicarmine, parejo and ledesma would have suited decanios style of play, the passing game, easy on the eye stuff. not sunday league football that was shown by a manager who promised passing, attacking football

Plus De Canio had Mancienne, Vine, Rowlands, Agyemang and Buzsaky.

Parejo will never suit English football until he learns to cope with the psychos who come steaming in and nick the ball off you -- quite different to the game he is used to, with more time and space to showcase skill. Likewise Di Carmine, according to some.
That is nothing to do with Sousa.
Ledesma was all flicks and tricks, and, as predicted by many on here, not enough substance or experience for a very tough division. His one decent game was against CARLISLE.
That is also nothing to do with Sousa.

But hey, keep manipulating the facts and we'll all have something to do to liven up an otherwise dull sunday afternoon.
