Van der MoodHoover Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Can't believe that either pulis or pearson would be high on anyone's list. Surely we showed how pearson without his team of Shakespeare et al is ineffective. And does pulis have any credentials apart from dour survival football? Neither of these potential appointments has me quaking..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Maybe Monk wants to go to Swansea? Would make some sense to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuespachRam Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Monk is a faker...he isn’t any good. They have spent boat loads of cash and aren’t going up this season. If they get Pullis he will get them up next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 To be fair, probably a good move for Middlesbrough. I expect them to surge - hopefully we can make second and avoid a play off against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Expect Gestede to feature more regularly or them now. I don't see them suddenly becoming this powerhouse though. Pulis is a master of getting his teams in survival mode, stopping the opposition from playing and grinding out wins. But there is a difference between doing that and setting up your team to win matches. To gain promotion from the Championship you have to win matches. Does Pulis have that in his locker? His Stoke side got promoted on around 79 points or something stupid. Different ball gme these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the window to find a big lad to lump it up to Glad to have Monk out. We spent over £50 million this summer, £30 million on strikers and yet we've scored less goals this season than in both of our championship seasons under Karanka's defence focused football. We didn't develop a style of play under Monk and we only won 2 more games than we lost. It wasn't the results but the way we couldn't perform or beat any halfway decent team. Pulis is basically just Karanka again, but with the ability to actually keep us up. He'll have fun with Ayala, Gibson, Friend, Leadbitter and Clayton kicking the **** out of anything that moves and Gestede and Assombalonga winning stuff in the air. The realistic target has to be playoffs but a 9 point deficit from Cardiff in 22 games isn't insurmountable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
