Glasner Out

I agree, Like him or loathe him anyone that thinks Paddy could do as well never mind a better job is deluded. Its absolutely the right attitude to just view him now as a caretaker because thats exactly what he is. The team is the most important thing. He knows how to coach this team at this level. No hero worship, no singing his name any more but let him get on with the job and look forward to the new guy coming in in the summer.
In your opinions, which are like pie crusts.
 
I cannot for the life of me think of a Premiership manager past or present that has ever acted in the way that Glasner has. We know he’s going but why keep on about it every given opportunity?

If your wife kept going on about leaving you would help her out the door with a toe up her arse, well you would wouldn’t you? I have had enough of this petulance now and the way he has acted will not bode well for him further down the line, it’s a massive get rid now, shut the door on your way out!
Nuno Espírito Santo had a few cracks at Marinakis before eventually being shown the door. That was in consecutive pressers right up to the last. I am sure the Don deserved all words spoken.

We then had Enzo Maresca and Ruben Amorim in quick succession setting the trend for managers this year to be volatile towards their employer’s in the presser.

So that makes Oli then the fourth in a crowd to have done it during this season alone. It has been a bit of an “in vogue” move this season. It’s not the first season that any manager has ever acted that way though. The only difference with Glasner is that he survived each and every time, which is a bit unusual.

Graham Potter spoke a few times about the challenges of managing Boehly’s unique project / demands, whilst he was still employed at Chelsea. He was maybe a bit more respectful about it, but he was definitely publicly critical of his then current employer.

Rangnick, Ten Hag, and Mourinho all criticised Man United’s leadership whilst still in-post. It didn’t lead to any of their immediate departures.

Mourinho did it at Spurs too, leading him to get dumped on the eve of the cup final.

Roberto Mancini at Man City was critical of Brian Marwood, and then of Txiki Begiristain after that.

Gregg Berhalter, Claudio Reyna, and the USMNT directors famously had a very public, very toxic, three-way melodrama over the selection of, and alleged behaviour of, Giovanni Reyna.

Looks like a convenient way of getting out of a contract. Whether they should have done it or not many, most or all of their criticisms may been valid but having a pop at your own fans isn't going to endear any manager to them. Particularly those who've been going since before OG was born let alone in charge.

There might have been one or two words in veiled digs by managers, but not on the OG scale. This has been going on for a good few months now and at every pre match interview and post match interview. Interesting enough Steve Parish has been very passive in this and literally cut off all communication leaving OG to look like the out and out bad guy.

The one thing that Parish said that resonated with me was “ you never know how it will go with a new manager it is a bit of a shot in the dark, we were fortunate with Oliver Glasner”
( or similar words to that effect)
 
On paper, he def fits Parish's ideal.. however the prem is a whole different beast and he hasn't proved himself at this standard, or even champ.

Still, makes exciting times

From my brief research it looks like he plays 3 at the back with wingbacks. Maybe Parish is considering this appointment purely just to piss Lanzo off 😂 if we do stick with this system it seems like a dodgy path as it's getting limited results now and our summer and winter recruits clearly don't fit it very well. But I guess what's more worrying is that our Recruitment team d made these purchases believing that they do fit into the current system.
 
The other thing I noticed on Sunday, was the miserable faces of OG’s coaching staff. When they first started, there were lots of smiling faces, full of positive energy and clearly on task. Now, their sullen mood is starting to become infectious.

We CAN all see what needs to be done, just put them out of their misery and get rid!!! I’d even take Big Sam for the last few months of the season….

I had a thoroughly miserable face until the 90th minute !
