    I wonder if Bilic's tactics told him to keep miskicking it or putting it out for a throw when shooting?

    As we all know, the best managers invariably seek out advice from those more experienced...

    You gotta speed it up
    And then you gotta slow it down
    'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top
    You gotta play around
    But soon you will find that there comes a time
    For making your mind up

    Oh and its also good tactics for Eurovision entry ;whistle

    Baz - I now have an image of Slav whipping off the sub's tracky bottoms before sending them on ;biggrin

    That really is in the realms of a 'land of make believe'....

    Got out of jail with a 96th minute equalizer at home to lowly forest green yesterday.

    Good luck to him though, think he can be a decent mamager

    An interesting article in the Observer on Sunday, primarily about Man City and how they are 1st in the Prem for goals, 1st for shots on target and 2nd for total number of shots. They provided little graphs to illustrate this and surprisingly West Ham are 11th for goals scored, 9th for shots on target and 11th for total shots.

    Its seems we're not as bad going forward as some seem to think
  • stevesteve
    ;hmm just back at the back which everyone knows

    The thing is, there might be an argument that we aren't even so bad at the back. 3 clean sheets in our last 4 league games since switching formation.

    Since going 3-4-3:

    Pl: 4
    W: 2
    D: 1
    L: 1
    GF: 5
    GA: 3

    For me during Bilic's reign as manager we have always been very good at scoring goals but concede way too much. Many games are high scoring games for both teams. Previously with Allardyce it was the opposite; we score few but concede few.

    Since we've changed formation we've managed to get a bit of steel about us at the back and conceding is no longer a problem. We've changed to a more Allardyce style. In the short term I don't mind this. We can't expect to win games conceding 2-3 a match.

    He Who Cannot Be Named being touted in some circles as a possible successor to Gordon Strachan as the next Scotland manager.

    They should be so lucky, talk now about Moyes !!!!

    Moyes has now turned into the Ravel Morrison of management everyone knows he has ut as they have seen the replays on you tube but he can't reproduce it for toffee now.
  • imagelostimagelost
    Raffa seems to have toon sorted now
    Don't want him after what happened
    Justsaying
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    If Slav gets till the end of the season and we finish 11th or below do you get rid of him ;hmm
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    Nope.
  • alderzalderz
    I would keep Slav unless

    1. We play dire football until the end of the season
    2. We go down
  • AdamAdam
    3. Pep wins the treble with Man City and wants a new challenge with a claret and blue club.
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    We will finish top ten and Bilic will walk. ;angry
  • Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_MoyesJorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes
    Bilic won’t walk. He won’t get a better job than West Ham, IMO. He hasn’t done enough.

    I would hate having any other manager then Slav, right now and the immediate future ;ok

    jay,

    Whilst I respect your opinion I have to disagree purely based on my aspirations for the club which I wonder whether Slav and the 2 Davids can take us to. ;ok

    You only have to read the comments from the owners of Leicester after sacking their manager to see what they expect and surely we are bigger than them?
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    I don't think we're going to get anyone better than Bilic after S&G made such a mess of the Carvalho thing, who'd want to come here and have to work with them?

    And unless the Yank is moving to buy them out we are going to have the same owners for the foreseeable future.

    Iv'e got an idea, what about getting rid of Slav, and bring back bfs

    Because we won the title 2 years ago and got to the champions league quarter finals last season?

    Oh.

    Grey,

    On what basis are you saying we are not?

    We won the World Cup you know. ;biggrin
