The9 Posted 30 June, 2017 Share Posted 30 June, 2017 The arrival video they've just put up is one of the most transparent attempts to win over the simple-minded I've seen from the club. Looks like a bit of spoon-feeding is in order to stop people making them sack managers they like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 30 June, 2017 Share Posted 30 June, 2017 (edited) Speaks very well, comes across very well, says all the right things and seemingly has all the right idea's. He seems quite a confident fella, won't be afraid to put his point across and say what needs to be said. Seeing him tower over wee Ross was a bit funny. It's a million miles away from the interview with Puel when he first came, a million miles. For a start, I didn't fall asleep.

Dark Munster Posted 30 June, 2017 Share Posted 30 June, 2017 Depends what you deem preventable. VvD and Austin were both impact injuries. I thought we had one of the lowest incidences (if not the lowest) of soft tissue injuries. I just look at the statistics, and we're miles behind Leicester and other teams in terms of average number of players out at any given time. We've been regularly near the top of physioroom.com charts. Maybe we're really, really unlucky, and maybe the likes of Leicester are really, really lucky.

It's a million miles away from the interview with Puel when he first came, a million miles. For a start, I didn't fall asleep. I think it's good people have a bit of optimism and enthusiasm for the new manager but you really extrapolated a lot from a pretty predictable and bland interview. The only real question in there was about what the fans could expect in terms of playing style and he dodged it - I think he mentioned something about a middle part but no idea what he meant. As for having the right ideas? What on earth do you mean by that? There was no detail at all aside from playing as a team which every manager is going to say. Don't get me wrong - I'm not knocking Pellegrino. I'm just amazed you can come up with all of that praise from a ten minute interview in which very little of substance was actually said.

suewhistle Posted 30 June, 2017 Share Posted 30 June, 2017 Have we signed The Invisible Man as our new manager? Just the one quote from him, no pictures .... WTF is happening? Even if he is on holiday, surely some sort of Interview and Gratuitous Shirt Holding Picture could have been rustled up? I think only players are allowed Gratuitous Shirt Holding Pictures.

Dellman Posted 30 June, 2017 Share Posted 30 June, 2017 He did say something of substance. He said football was not a job to him but a vocation because he just loved doing it.

He was an awful man who did awful things but are you seriously trying to argue that Hitler was NOT one of the world's greatest ever leaders? Don't confuse values/morals with leadership qualities!

Don't confuse values/morals with leadership qualities! The fact that he inspired followers to do such awful things is evidence in itself of his leadership qualities. He was a terrible leader. The government of Nazi Germany was utterly, utterly chaotic. And he got too big for his boots, thought he could take on the might of Russia in addition to fighting in Western Europe and consequently lost the war. Anyhow the point is this - charisma does not necessarily equal success. The same people on Twitter who had written off Puel in December have now swung in the complete opposite direction over one interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor Posted 1 July, 2017 Share Posted 1 July, 2017 Impressed by the first interview. A definite advantage over Claude Puel that he can express himself effectively in English, presumably benefiting in part from his time in England at Liverpool. Learned more about his philosophy in that interview than ever came across from Claude who was more affected by the language barrier. Liked his thoughts on constant improvement and that small details can make a significant difference. That sounded very much like the Dave Brailsford approach that contributed to the success of British Cycling. Very optimistic that this is a manager who the players will quickly come to respect.

Micky Posted 1 July, 2017 Share Posted 1 July, 2017 I hope he goes on to be our most successful manager ever. But this is simply an interview, words.
