At his first press conference at our club when asked about what he had learned from his time at Inter Milan he said he had learnt a lot.He used the same terminology after the Huddersfield game when asked what he had learned from the defeat. It is of course in all our interests that FDB succeeds at our club.M'thinks that Steve Parish will come in for much vituperation if FDB fails !

I'm refusing to jump on this drama queen knee jerk tide just yet but I have to say from the minute he was appointed something just felt as if we got the man for Southampton & Southampton got the man for us. Time will tell but if this system is genius or complete dog s***, I'm certain we won't know until at least 7-8 games in. Unfortunately the fickle nature of a lot of our fans will probably not afford him that if results don't pick up as early as, well Liverpool even. We're the Arthur over ere!

I did feel that someone like Dyche was a better fit for our club and as well as mentioning his name to a few people outside of HOL also mentioned Simon Grayson. but alas these two are not as "Sexy" managerial wise as FDB. Like you, I am giving it time ! Edited by Willo (16 Aug 2017 11.36am)

Cant really fault him for at least trying to play a more passing game at home to PL new boys. I think he's learned a very tough lesson from the weekend and hopefully we'll start playing to our strengths and introducing new things slowly

What if putting style over substance initially eventually leads to a style with more substance? Does he deserve time or do we sack him after a month? We're the Arthur over ere!

All I am saying that in various conversations with people (I daren't refer to them as 'Contacts' !) after Allardyce resigned, I mentioned Dyche as well as Grayson that's all. We have FDB in situ and of course it is in all our interests that he succeeds.I am certainly not getting into any knee-jerk reactions and writing him off after a single game.

Happy to eat my hat if you prove us all wrong though We're the Arthur over ere!

It was never gonna be a quick turnaround and I'm quite surprised at fans who expected it to be. He's here and should get supported until his management is indefendable. We're the Arthur over ere!
