Not yet, not for me, but not his biggest fan.

Stuck with Ibini longer than I would have today.

I haven't seen a Wanderers side give that much time and space to an opposition midfield in dangerous positions. How can you coach a quality midfield to do that?

Our attack had no idea but that's standard for most seasons.

 

His recruitment is excellent, I'm convinced the guy has no idea how to formulate a style of play and communicate it to players.

He watches a different game to everyone else. Why he left the subs so late when we looked dead from about the 60th minute and, what was Ibini supposed to be doing he just stood in no man's land most of the game 

[WHACKO]

I wonder what went on back in Vancouver...Ibini must have pictures. It's the only explanation.

If he gets us firing and winning stuff I wont care, but don’t think I will ever like they way he talks about the team / game lol

[marron]

Yep, the same.

[mack]

Just need to beat half the clubs and draw with the other half and we will be a top 2 certainty.

[marron]

To do that, we're going to need to score more goals than the other side, or, at least as many.

[Wanderboy]

CR comes across as a very likeable bloke. Sure, he might talk in cliches and he certainly has the the gift of the gab, but if (a big if) the players believe in him, it's got to be a good thing, right?

Rhetoric/cliches from the coach are ok but as always it boils down to performances on the pitch and whether the players deliver on the coaches rhetoric. Last season we didn't.  

[GunnerWanderer]

Listened to his presser seemed a fairly accurate articulation of the game. 
 

if I was Carl I think he would be a little concerned of us losing ball constantly in final third, the good thing is next couple of games jets and nix have also had high turnover - we should be looking to take 6 points from those.

At what point do you decide you can't win, 94th minute? What a Gooze!

Rodwell said in his post game interview we have a good manager he's played under some decent ones so hopefully should know

If only a player would be up front in an on pitch interview and state something like 'He's a numpty and knows **** all'.

Rodwell thinks he's a good manager because he gave him another gig.

Perfect solution.

CR to DofF/Recruitment. let him out a squad together and then he can hand over to someone else and go on hols till the next window.

The man knows how to pull in a signing

[WSWJACK]

Is Kenny Miller completely out now? is there a replacement? is LH confirmed No 2 for rest of season?

Said the exact same thing to a mate during the game. If Robo made the signings and someone else coached the side, we could be anything

Maybe just maybe JT and Lederer aren't the complete nobheads everyone thinks they are

Of course they aren’t. It’s just the cool thing to do in football to blindly hate the men in suits at all costs

Just that they deserve some credit for backing the manager and bringing in the current squad

Oh, I'd say bringing in a good squad is only half the job (or less). Keeping them motivated, playing to a plan and well drilled is another thing - that remains to be seen.

Well, we are going to find out the answer pretty quick on if CR is up to the job. He has everything at his disposal to be successful this season, everything is lined up for him....Its going to show up quickly if he isn't right.

yep but that's all CRs job remains to be seen how he goes with it. But my point was it's fashionable on here to play JT for all the troubles of the team, when in reality he's held up his end of the bargain pretty well the last couple of seasons

Tommy Deng about to leave Urawa Red Diamonds.

Robbo to again prove himself as master recruiter and bring him in.
