Nuno Out

[northbankfrank]

2,500 posts by the end of the season?

[Nick QQQ2]

A simply bizarre line up.  You need legs and a press against Brighton and he drops the 2 midfielders capable of that.  Including the guy who got MOM in the last game.   More Moyes than Moyes

Blokes a thick cսnt

Fernandes, Paqueta and Magassa have all scored from open play this season, so that's a load of bollocks.

[Sir Alf]

Our biggest problem looks now to be attacking options and hence creating and scoring goals. Just Wilson as a CF and an injured Summerville who doesnt score goals but does create them via direct assists or stretching teams. Leaves the onus on Bowen who is struggling for goals and 33 year old Wilson.  

We dont have a scoring midfielder other than supersub Soucek. 

Need to keep in touch until Jan and then hope for once we get recruitment right.  All ifs and buts

[GBHammer63]

I’m undecided as to whether Nuno’s bollocks have dropped yet or he just keeps dropping bollocks, either way it doesn’t bode well. He’s not showing enough bravery with the team for me.

[Russ of the BML]

I think the problem for Nuno right now is that he isn't confident enough in the team managing the game. So he is over-compensating. 

I think for me, whilst I have been frustrated at some of his subs / tactics, there are two key factors - Are we competitive? Yes. Are players improving under him? Yes. 

As someone else pointed out - Magassa, Todibo and Areola have improved under him. Fernandes and Potts are improving all the time. After a bit of a dip, AWB now looks much better again. Wilson looking better. 

I think if you are in our position and players look confused and jaded and not competitve (basically Wolves) then your doomed. But we are not looking like that.

Not sure I'd say he's Jekyll and Hyde.  Due to suspensions and injuries I think he's been forced to change how we set up regularly.  We don't have a sufficiently talented or adaptable squad for us to lose a player and bring another in to retain our shape each match.

As for Kilman and Mavro, neither are good enough.  We desparately need a decent centre half, cover for Summerville and at least one CF who can score and play an entire match.

We are much more desperate for quick forward players than anything else, second to that is fullback cover for when our current first choice pair are away in that silly tournament soon. A centre back would be great, but it's now not as much of a priority given we're defending much better as a whole.

Plus the fact that if we've got more pace on the attack, it will relieve a bit of the pressure on the defence.

Got the right hump with this twat. We equalise and had Utd on the ropes as their twat of a manager made so many changes no one knew where they were meant to be. So what does our twat do, takes off the striker for a Centre Back. Respect the point. Bollocks. Were in the bottom 3 if you have a chance of 3 points fucking go for it. Then even as disorganised as Utd were they were still invited onto the defence and if Fernandes had controlled his shot at the end, we could have ended up with nothing after all and whose fault would that have been. For that substitution and all the other fuck ups in such a short space of time, sack.

Eight points in the last six games. Keep that up until the end of the season and we'll be fine with a similar finish to last year,

The worst thing about Nuno for me is the inconsistency of how we play, some others have said he’s as stubborn as Moyes but I’m finding he’s setup of the team or his decisions are very Jekyll and Hyde, we can look a decent team with purpose and alternatively absolute dross, sometimes in the same game. I don’t know whether he’s getting more right than wrong or vice versa.
Seems to have a decent way with the squad and some have got better, dropping JWP a big plus and after last night looks like one or two more may be dropped. As a man seems ok, as a manager convincingly unconvincing at the moment. Fingers crossed.

Absolute rubbish. It is almost certain that he will select his fellow Portuguese speaking bum chum Paqueta next time and drop Magassa.

Numpty Nuno is as pathetic as loser Lop and pathetic Potter.

He'll pick Paqueta ahead of Soucek, Magassa started alongside him Sunday

He’s finally worked out that Kilman was a problem too albeit 3 or 4 games too late. 



 

 

 

He didn't have any option, as Mavro was injured. Soon as he's come back he's in.

Yet another pathetic display from Nuno last night.

22% win ratio. Worst ratio of all our managers.

We are getting relegated under this Portuguese wanker.

That fat Forest owner was bang right about him.

[Takashi Miike]

I suppose to those wanting Nuno out the question is who do we get in? Should we have gone for Dyche or perhaps Gary O’Wall or as some were saying Ange Postagoglu?  

The only person saying that was Miike.

He said he'd 'take him in a heartbeat'.

yiddo, I said I'd take him over potter. that's the part you keep leaving out, you absolute fucking helmet

and for sir alf, when the fuck was it our job to recruit managers/coaches? the billionaire porn dwarf should have competent professionals employed to make those decisions, rather than the tory peer bint

[zico]

My main criticism of Moyes was that he didn't seem to improve players, and if anything some players regressed certainly confidence wise.  Fornals and Benrahma two examples, clearly two who needed an arm around the shoulder rather than a kick up the arse.  As I said somewhere else Areola, Magassa and Todibo are improving and AWB has his mojo back so maybe Nuno can improve them if nothing else with a better atmosphere.

Nuno gets things wrong as did Moyes, Potter, Loppy, Pelegrini, Bilic, Zola, Pardew etc but he also gets some things right although it seems to take him a few games to work out which has arguably been his biggsst flaw.  But unlike the previous 4 managers at least makes the right calls eventually. The binning of Hernandes immefiately to make Areola his number 1 was the exception. As an ex keeper I think he knew straight away  Areola was what was needed and he could improve him which he has.

Midfield took 2 - 3 games too long to work out we needed more pace, strength etc and while JWP was jettisoned on day 1, Potts, Fernandes and now Magassa have now essentially replaced the likes of JWP, Soucek, Irvine finally.  And he seems possibly to have recognised that Kante and Earthy are ready for minutes?

He’s finally worked out that Kilman was a problem too albeit 3 or 4 games too late. 

He needs now to realise Paqueta needs to be subbed more when not playing for the team and giving it away too much as seemd to be untouchable ? 

Up front he is excused. He has no options but 33 yar ild Wilson. Thats not his issue and lets hope its resolved in Jan. 

 finally its his subs and timing of subs that needs to get inprove although in his defence the dreadful state of our squad severely limits him in some areas. 

All in all, he aint perfect and I dont particularly like his tactics but he has shown he will change things albeit too slowly. And that frustration is obviously exacerbated by the fact we have been in the bottom 3 all season.

I suppose to those wanting Nuno out the question is who do we get in? Should we have gone for Dyche or perhaps Gary O’Wall or as some were saying Ange Postagoglu?  In hindsight perhaps Dyche was a better bet some will say but Im of the opinion that Nuno was not such a bad appointment as he does seems less stubborn than the previous 4 candidates and does seem to learn eventually. ? 

[Mad Ferret]

Bringing Wilson off after we equalised and were looking the more likely to go on to win just about sums up this bottlejob cսnt.

[Forest Gate Ugly]

Like Moyes before him, there’s lots to question about Nuno- he’s stubborn, inflexible, defensively minded and makes odd decisions, then repeats then. But like Moyes, he does seem to know how to make some players better- Todibo for example- they seem to like him and I like his passion. Great to see a manager who properly celebrates a goal. 

[twoleftfeet]

I actually think that Nuno would have been better suited to coming in when Moyes left.

 

No shit.

They have the exact same style, and ambitions.

He’s melanin Moyes. 

I guess you haven’t forgiven him for his time at Spurs so I forgive you for being a cսnt.

14th on form since he took over.

Give him a couple of attackers/flair players in place of Paqueta and Fulkrug and we'll be okay.

Just need to stay in touch over the next few weeks.
