Is Bruno Lage A Good Manager Or Should He Go?

[Lupollet]

He’s obviously fallen out with Jonny over something now. What has happened to Podence? Has he pissed him off as well?

Podence has an injury and has refused to play with injections

Podence has an injury and has refused to play with injections

How do we know that? Do you know how he picked up the injury or what it is?

 

[Tredman]

Timbo said so in the E&S podcast

Can well understand, playing him through an injury didn't exactly help him last time

 

[Sniffer]

Yes you can understand it. The manager making it public and therefore throwing him under a bus on the other hand....

Wolves stars in dressing room protest at Lage’s plans - Exclusive

Football Insider has learned that Wolves stars are protesting against Bruno Lage’s plans to implement a new tactical system.

due to Wayne’s thoughts making it into another article, I now think the dressing room situation is absolutely fine

if the issue was the a player backlash because he wants to change shape Id make Bruno right on that one

BREAKING: Bruno Lage has tested positive for Covid-19 and will miss tomorrow's game away at Chelsea. Goalkeeping coach Tony Roberts will be taking today's press conference.
Its reported that Bruno Lage is feeling fine and has been able to take some training from a distance.

A good, committed performance by the players now would be the ultimate fuck you to the absent Lage wouldn't it?

Get. Out. Of. Our. Club.

Laugh all you like Mark, he’s an appalling manager and shouldn’t be anywhere near our* club

*though I guess our doesn’t apply to you.

Its very tempting to let that last 20 minutes or so gloss over what has happened the last couple months, and it shouldn't happen.

There will probably inevitably be cries of it wouldn't have happened if Bruno had been there, etc...maybe, we'll likely never know. It does raise questions about where this approach has been before now though - where was it against Newcastle when we went behind? Against Burnley? How many points have we limply left on the table through not doing exactly this?

I don't see us replicating that against City or Liverpool as we'll get steamrollered, but if there's not something similar against Norwich from the start then there might well be a mutiny.

 

[Alan]

The 20 minutes today are a credit to Trincao and Chiqi, not Bruno.

4-2-4 is not sustainable, and our Plan A is still, uh, bad.

Changing one person doesn't fix all the problems.

 

[Tredman]

I’d get rid of the clowns on the bench too. I’d even let them keep their AirPods. And most of the scouts and Sellars can go too.

Changing one person doesn't fix all the problems.

Of course it won't but it can make a huge difference. For example Chelsea changed Lampard for Tuchel and won the Champions League.

"If you can't fix everything at once, fix nothing at all"??

"If you can't fix everything at once, fix nothing at all"??

Yes, exactly what I'm saying isn't it?

 

[Alan]

You'll have to elaborate if you want me to draw a different conclusion from that tbh.
