Where has jfh gone wrong?

Who has he spent 8-10M on then? (And not played)




There has to be something else going on. This is pure speculation.



This is just bigoted bol1ocks. he speaks perfectly well (how good's your Dutch?), albeit somewhat evasively in the interview.

I must admit given the time he has lived in England, his English is very poor (not sure why that it is bigoted, it is a fact). The main problem is it is monosyllabic which makes it boring and hard to listen to. This is very difficult for fans as we are used to managers with personalities (good or bad). Also the Dutch usually speak good English (an exception being van Gaal).

We cannot turn up at Craven Cottage with him still manager. His team selection when we played them at home made Parker abd O'Hara look like Ineliesta and Xavi.

Bigoted? Do you know the meaning of the word? It's stating facts - his English is poor and he struggles to get his message across. It's obvious from his interviews. And I don't manage a Dutch football team. The funny thing is you'll be agreeing with me when we get battered 4-0 by Fulham in a couple of weeks.

Yes.

When we get battered by Fulham, which is almost inevitable, I may agree with you on some of your other points. Who has he spent 8-10 million on though, pray tell.

Hard to put a positive case for him as no progress or promise since he took over.

[hal9thou]

Strangely, that seems to be true!

Its simple. We had a pre season fitness edge which lasted for a couple of weeks in. Plus it only took a couple of weeks for everyone to suss out how one dimensional we are.

My only problem with JFH is that he isn't good enough. There was no evidence when he was appointed, and none has been forthcoming since. Just like all the other iffy calls, JFH did not appoint himself and in a just world others would carry the can along with him.

Spending £8-10 million on players and not using them

Who has he spent 8-10M on then? (And not played)

Not giving Sandro a chance in the first team, despite being a former Brazilian international. Yes, he was crap in the Premiership for us, but is he any worse than the others?

A failure to learn to speak English fluently (his post-match interviews are practically incoherent) - are you convinced the players understand what he's saying?

Need I go on?

No.

[The Godfather]

- Not signing any wingers
- Not telling his wingers to track back and protect the full-backs, or get to the byline and cross the ball, two pretty elementary requirements from your men on the flanks
- Putting players out of position
- Spending £8-10 million on players and not using them
- Failing to encourage any creativity or imagination from his players, meaning they look to pass the ball backwards or sideways as soon as they receive it
- Making substitutions far too late in the match to influence things
- Failing to adapt to the opposition's style of play
- Playing Karl Henry every match, without fail
- Not giving Sandro a chance in the first team, despite being a former Brazilian international. Yes, he was crap in the Premiership for us, but is he any worse than the others?
- Playing one man up front every match, without fail
- A failure to learn to speak English fluently (his post-match interviews are practically incoherent) - are you convinced the players understand what he's saying?
- Getting rid of the only two leaders in the squad (Hill and Faurlin)

Need I go on?

We could have pep in charge of the current barca team in hoops and still go #### up, club is cursed. I blame them gypsies donkey's years ago that were on the old white city stadium site for a bit

I still blame Jude the Cat. Bring back Arnie the Football Head!

[Hubble]

It all went downhill when Gladwin got injured!

Strangely, that seems to be true!

Obviously the opposition managers watched those games and did their homework on us. I mean we're very predictable and one-dimensional, thus easy to prepare against, right?

That's a fair point Stan, and probably the case. But we don't even seem to be attempting to press any more, lack of plan b? Or is plan b defend, defend, defend?

[Awin]

that matched with playing toilet and differing team selection

Did junior re-sign?

[Shepherds Mush]

Thing is though, we did against Leeds and Cardiff. Ever since, it's just been poor. Can't understand what's changed.

IMO it's the midfield not knowing their roles. Signs were there against Preston as to how unorganised the midfield is.
