The Manager Sacked/Hired Thread 2018/19

[jd1981]

Now confirmed

 

[Tony Towner]

He's been a puppet for Jones all season. If he doesn't go as well then he's just the fall guy.

Also gone.

Wonder what Pardew is doing?...

 

[jd1981]

Their squad ain’t great at all and 4th is about par for them. Losing Barnes has really stumped them they’ve got very little creativity in the middle.

 

[Tony Towner]

They try and play out from the back, don't have the players to do it and get pressed into making mistakes. Gayle is played on the left of a 3 when he is probably the most prolific scorer in the league. They have a stronger squad than any of the Top 3 if set up correctly. Top 2 is beyond them but a competent manager could well take them up. It'll be Jakonavic I'd have thought. He won't sort the defense out, but will get them to win home games again

 

[Kenny]

Also gone.

Jones will go to Luton now then.

 

[jd1981]

Going forward yes but defensively they’re as bad as anyone in the top half.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Hehehehehehehe

Jokanovic won't touch that until the summer. They are marooned.

GOOD.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

They actually think they are a national laughing stock.

You sort of need to be relevant to be that.

 

[AndyWolves]

Makes sense to me, they're showing mid table form and don't look like they're improving.

They try to play out from the back but can't, players are played our of position (Gayle).

If they continued as they are I could see them slide out the play offs

I hadn't seen your post before I posted mine but this is why it's a good sacking.

If BFS wanted it he'd take them up

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Their forums would explode if the club binned their "legend" to bring in a "doghead".

That would be hilarious.

 

[YoungWolf]

I think it’s pretty insane that they have sacked him. They don’t have a particularly good squad at all and they have only recently dropped out of contention for the automatic places

This is classic outside looking In view (Wolves should never have sacked MM etc.). Now I don’t know either way, as I’m also on the outside and don’t pay that much interest to them. But my baggie supporting mate says that Moore is tactically clueless, terrible substitutions and woeful selections. Plus they have been woeful for a while now. They were getting away with it at the start of the season by blowing teams away, but Barnes has gone back and the goals have dried up.

Their squad is very good? Not sure what makes you say otherwise.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

ALL I care about is quite how much I would laugh if the Count of Monte Bisto pitched up there. It would be the funniest thing in football history.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

I think binning Moore is a good call. Monte Bisto may get them up! Its harsh but probably true!

While I take your point (feels like there is more to it than we realise) he took over last season and made their season somewhat bareable when you consider what came before it and has them 4th (and until 3 games ago in the top two race)

I don’t think their squad is very good at all. Pretty terrible defence and midfield. Two good forwards who I think he should have stuck with playing as a poor but I think their defensive deficiencies played on his mind too much. Can’t underestimate how much of a loss Barnes has been. They brought in Jefferson Montero to replace him.

Doubt they will catch top 2 now but they won't drop out of the play offs.
Watched their game yesterday and they were fucking awful (aside from Murphy)
For some reason Moore doesn't change the formation and plays Gayle out wide and even worse, puts Bartley in the team!!
Won't take much to see them pick up results, a tweak here and there and they will probably win the PO.
Phillips, JRod, Gayle, Murphy are all good players at that level and Harper looks very decent for a kid.
I expect someone like a Rowett with Kevin Philips to rock up there.
