No but I couldn't imagine Brian Clough being successful as a manager in the modern world either I am not so sure, a combination of Clough and Taylor would do okay i think. They got the best out of players...

No he wouldn't. He couldn't ( by his own admission) deal with the EPL & nothing's changed. It amazes me that folk bang on about us having better players than before ignoring the fact that so do all of our opponents. Every EPL club improves their squad year on year which is why having better players doesn't really mean a thing and simply doing what you did last season is the equivalent of going backwards in this league. We cannot rely on 'shock' results against the big boys but need to sort our home form against those around us - we've been awful at Selhurst for years now & sticking with counter-attacking football won't fix it. Even Sam said so....
Spot on.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |

Yeah, but then you look at the squad Freedman put together in the Championship, and how they were pretty much the backbone of our premiership side for several seasons. Maybe you don't remember or weren't around - but the reasons why were playing premiership football are down to Freedman, Pulis and Allerdyce. But it started with Freedman (and I think Pulis would have been f**ked without the squad players Freedman signed). The fact you completely overlooked Holloway speaks volumes. The players were out backbone because we couldn't afford to buy better. Hardly because they were irreplaceable and PL class.

He isn't Director of Football, he was appointed as Sporting Director, there is a world of difference. This will be good... Go on then, what's the difference?
