| Julian on 20:40 - Sep 10 by connell10 | Who Nourry |
Got to be honest couldn’t stand him la§st season , way he was setting us up awful football but this season he seems diff , he’s getting more fecked off with the inquires as every game goes by seems more focused this season maybe because they think we are good enough for the play offs , which if we had half a fit squad for the season we might stand a chance , he just seems diff maybe he has blocked the calls from nourry and William’s and is doing it more his way during the games |  |
|  |
| Julian on 22:37 - Sep 10 with 3484 views | EN_Ranger | I think he’s been more honest and open this season in 6 games than he was the whole of last season. He was toeing the company line before, now he calls the team out after every game. Which makes me like him much more |  | |  |
| Julian on 22:47 - Sep 10 with 3457 views | bosh67 | Love the last line Connell. Top marks. I think he's made quite a jump so far this season. He's clearly got the link up play and transitions in what we do a lot smarter and quicker. We genuinely look like a pretty good team. I agree with some on this thread thinking if he would stay after this season if the injuries pile up again. He looked very frustrated when asked about the new injuries. Then again Nathan Jones on the joint presser after the game said that the schedulers had no idea about how 5 games in 12 games impacted players and injuries. He was spot on and it does appear that the 'dropping like flies' issue is pretty much happening throughout the league. But yeah, so far a big jump forward from the gaffer but as I have said on other threads, for me Kevin Betsy alongside him is a big factor. And possibly Bould actualy being in the dug out on match days too. |  |

| Julien on 08:49 - Sep 11 with 3008 views | superhoopaus | Really impressed with Julien this season. Win, lose or draw he’s calm and rational after the game and usually describes it the same way we all saw it. He’s holding the players more to account too. You can already see him getting as frustrated as the rest of us with the injuries starting to pile up. |  |

| Julian on 10:00 - Sep 11 with 2868 views | Wegerles_Stairs | He's certainly got us playing much better this season. However, the problem with having someone so dependent on the CEO is that they will stand or fall by their boss's decisions. If he's so frustrated by our latest batch of injuries, he always has the option of selecting a certain striker who was sitting in the stand on Wednesday night with the away support... |  | |  |
| Julian on 15:54 - Sep 11 with 2570 views | gazza1 | I think/thought he had learned from last season but I was very annoyed at the side he selected, maybe because of previous team selections, with the side he put out against Boro. The team selection was a major factor why we got FA from the game. Other than that major wrong team selection I am 'warming' to the man.....I enjoy listening to him talk. Do I think that he will jump before the end of the season - No I do not, he is better than that & I think he has got a lot of what he wanted pre season. |  | |  |

With some of the team selections and the timing of the subs, do you reckon he’s being steered by the bloke with the laptop next to him on the bench? Minutes, load, “this one has to come off” type stuff. Is that Ben Williams, or one of the analysts? |  |

The guy with the laptop is the corner and kick off specialist. |  |

Not a clue tbh but, perhaps the 'Laptop Man' has something to say but JS makes the final decision...... |  | |  |

My theory on this is the club wanted to keep him, and the negotiations around that happened fairly early in the summer. There was a Nourry interview where he talked about player recruitment that, I thought, sounded like they weren't about to embark on a new manager search. Part of that process has involved a 'deep dive' into the availability of players last season. Julien was more and more open about that towards the end of the season, and at the end of that deep dive there's been an agreement for all parties to get on the 'same page' - i.e. JS will buy into all the loading stuff and generally err on the side of caution to try to help manage player's fitness, with particular emphasis on potential assets like Lamptey. In return I think Williams committed to getting the squad much fitter than it was at the start of last season. All of which has Julie feeling a bit more comfortable if anything. It's a theory anyway. |  | |  |
| Julian on 00:02 - Sep 12 with 2062 views | baz_qpr | I think he's a really decent manager probably best since Warburton, he has created harmony in the squad and belief, we are playing really interesting and innovative tactics, he is pragmatic when he needs to be, and maybe stubborn but all managers are. a number of players are progressing. Not many managers in this league I would chose over him at the moment |  | |  |
| Julian on 08:15 - Sep 12 with 1806 views | londonscottish | I find Julian's communication style human and engaging. I find Nourry has created a weird too-cool-for-European-business-school persona. My brain switches off as soon as he starts to talk. Maybe if he submitted everything in written form, I could make it to the end of the first paragraph. |  |
