    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    Very interesting to read Widell’s remark about the difference between Sheehan and Matos. Especially about Matos giving the players the freedom to show what comes naturally to them - and that’s probably why we all talking about enjoying the games again.

    I like mr. Evans’s excitement but sometimes it’s an over kill. He can give you a hart attack even if the ball just killed a bird flying over the stands🙂

    What are our realistic ambitions ?

    We both can agree that we do not want this scenario to happen.

    What are our realistic ambitions ?

    You are right but is doesn’t mean that it wasn’t a gamble which a newly relegated club would be willing to take.

    What are our realistic ambitions ?

    He has just completed his 11th game in the championship and you’re already getting rid of him? No club will look at a manager with only half a season experience with no proven promotion record.

    Vipotnik - Top Scorer (Championship)

    On the subject of Piroe vs. VIP: Piroe wasn’t the fastest player also, but he knew how to create scoring chances for himself and to put the ball wherever he wanted to. VIP lacks a little in that regard but with two cannons, left and right, he is doing fine, and His heading is also better than...

    Michael Obafemi - Downfall

    “You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.” For me, he was always a limited player who mainly offered pace. Talent, however, is only a small part of a player’s career, the rest is character (and a bit of...

    Jay Fulton

    One of a manager’s main tasks, whether in football or any other workplace, is to get the best out of the people working for them in order to achieve the club’s goals. When you look at Jay’s recent performances, it’s clear that the previous few managers failed in that area.

    Some thoughts after yesterday’s game

    This is EG's first seasin in the championship and is currently ranked 4th in minutes played, behind our two CBs and Tymon (by a small margin). I couldn’t find stats on distance covered, but it’s a no-brainer that our full-backs cover far more ground than our centre-backs. I’m sure we have a good...

    Kyle Joseph & BW

    Sometimes it’s about a player’s situation in the dressing-room hierarchy, not just ability. I’m not saying he’s ready, but he can’t be used only as a bench warmer, there is a player in him.

    Filip Lissah

    We have eight players who are natural in defensive positions. The most important thing for Lissa right now is consistency, and bringing him back for a few cameo appearances won’t help in that respect.

    Kyle Joseph & BW

    A few seasons ago, someone at Swansea (I can’t remember who) let Kyle Joseph leave, and this season he’s thriving with 7 goals already as a RW (and he can also play as a RB). BW has the same attributes and, to me, he looks even better than KJ did at that age. Yet somehow, it feels like we’re...

    Some thoughts after yesterday’s game

    This time, feeling a bit more frustrated 🙂: The RB issue has to be solved promptly. Playing EG there is clearly limiting us, both in midfield and going forward. On EG specifically: he looks tired and overplayed. A rest for a game or two could really help him. Matos needs to ban EOM from...

    Michael Carrick

    I know it is just the first game but i cant remember the last time Man Unt played so well. It will be very interesting to follow the their next games, I believe he is a good manager.

    Josh Key

    According to this logic, everyone, with the right coaching, can eventually become Usain Bolt, but the reality is that each of us has a ceiling, and for me, Key’s ceiling is inadequate to the championship (And again, there are other issues such as his defensive sense). If our target is roaming...

    Ref Watch

    As always, there are bad refs and good refs all over and this subject is as old as the game itself (Rememer Maradona's "Hand of god" 40 years ago). For me it is a part of the tactical set up of the game and players and coaches should just preper themselfs for the ref "type". Yes, Sometimes its...
