NewConvert Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 9 minutes ago, Jovan said: Gombau is no better than JVS. We need a championship winning coach from a decent League. I would disagree. Gombau has at leat won some silverware in HK, admittedly not highly esteemed but he has won silverware. Where they are similar is that neither seem to get angry at the players but we do know that Gombau can get angry at the media, so the fire is there. Also, Gombau did not have any concerns with upsetting his players - I am not sure about JVS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And its exactly what you mentioned in regards to the rocket. JVS doesnt like it and thinks its causing unrest towards the rest of the team and his coaching philosophies. Thank fuck he wont be there next year!!! Couldnt agree more highly in regards to Franjic and Zullo where they think being part of the City family will open doors for them. You dont perform you dont deserve to play let alone have your head in Europe. It all comes down to the coaching staff. JVS has had his way for far too long with very little results. I think there is method to a very strange transfer window where we have freed up funds for the incoming coach which im told is Josep Gombau. Gee if I had to choose between Sorensen or JVS, let me see... (0.000001 seconds later) - Sorensen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jestr Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) Sorenson had a long career under some quality and experienced managers. It didn't take him to long to see this team has a muppet in charge. he doesn't have to be happy about this rudderless boat's sinking final chances as well as his professional goalie career getting hammered due the number of goals he has conceded. He can mostly thank the retards employed to protect him Edited February 29, 2016 by Jestr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSK_47 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) If its true that JVS is unhappy with Sorenson razzing everyone up, its pretty ironic that one of the main reasons he was signed was to bring leadership qualities to the team that we desperately needed Edited February 29, 2016 by KSK_47 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bielsa is still unemployed but doesn't speak English. It would at least save us from the 1 hour pressers where he goes into minute details over tactics.

You had me until "Josep Gombau", Obviously I know nothing of your sources, and if it happens then fine, I'll take it, but I've seen so many people - including press sources - mistake Gombau's move to NYC to start an academy to be him joining NYCFC (which he patently did not do) that I now cannot believe any link between us and him. I'm pretty sure people just keep starting rumours saying he is coming under the mistaken belief that CFG is holding him in NYC on the down-low until the time is right.

Dylan Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) It's very clear that we are not going anywhere with JVS in charge. The team reflects the manager. Limp and weak. I'm looking forward to next season more than this one tbh. No JVS, New marquee, new kit (hopefully a long term one). almost like we will finally lance the heart boil and push on.

Yeah, I'm in some ways happy with how the season is going. We're not sinking without a trace and humiliating ourselves by finishing outside of the playoffs (touch wood), we've had some high-scoring games for good entertainment and to show the league how we play and how we can destroy existing scoring records, and yet we're really not meeting potential which means that JVS' position is tenuous. Surely come season end he will be gone. It's only a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k o Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Well, even if we finish in 6th position it'll be the best 6th position a team could hope for. Bruno potentially golden boot, breaking scoring records, great home record etc. There's been some amazing stuff this season. Edited March 1, 2016 by n i k o Apologies for the positivity guys.

I don't doubt that he has some knowledge about the game but we've seen that great players don't automatically transform into great managers (I.e JA).

Yeah true Id be throwing big money at a well known coach at the end of the season but I'd also like to keep Sorenson around at the end of his contract if he wanted because he is very well liked from what I understand.
