Comment | Time For Saints Supporters To Put The Past Behind Us And Look To The Future
at 00:04:03
Thanks for your comment, felly1 (and HI!), but even though it's a bit besides the point in the article, are we playing that intertaining? Ain't there too much panic in defence, too few assists from midfield and too few goals from strikers (except Broja who is on loan) for us to be intertaining for our own fans? I actually think that we have very capable players and yet vi loose to Norwich and have only won 4 out of 19 matches? I just can't see Hasenhuttl as a winner (even though I do like him) ... we could have had Eddie Howe (Winner!). |

I know it hasn't much to do with the new owners (even though I - as a dane - find it interesting with danish - and serbian - owners), but regarding the bit about looking forward (instead of backwards), what do you guys think about the fact that Hasenhuttl will continue untouched? Jeg REALLY like the guy and would love him to be succesful (for many reasons obviuosly!), but come on ... isn't he overrated as a coach/manager? Not to provoke you, Colburn, by knocking players I don't like, but the fact that he keeps playing Jack stephens, apparently thinks Livramento is infallible and therefore forced KWP (fantastic player) out of position (why can't they play together at the right?), again and again miss out on solid, english talent (the latest is going to Huddersfield!) and twice lost 0-9 ... is he as good as he is nice? I'll admit, that I (living in Denmark) can't follow the club the same way you can ... so have you any thoughts? (And please excuse my english and grammar!) |

Comment | Saints V Manchester United The Verdict
at 02:49:34
Agreeing with you, DPeps (I'm your new danish friend! :D ). Vestergaard slow in more than one way, and I too would like to see Gunn playing - did we really buy him just to make him an expensive backup? When will he start getting annoyed?
And please, don't any of you think that a point against a bad Man Utd justify Hughes! HE CAN'T WIN FOOTBALLMATCHES! (Excuse my English!) |

Comment | Odds Tumble On A Spanish Replacement For Mark Hughes

Please, KriSaint, not another Dane! Don't you think it's enough with Vestergaard, who once again proved to be slow in more than one way? I'm danish myself, and trust me, Michael Laudrup IS another wimp, with very little succes as a manager. Brendan Rodgers get my vote - among the realistic names. If we could pick any manager, Eddie Howe would be the perfect choice. |

And thank U to you, dirk_doone! Vestergaard seem to think, that attitude alone is enough. Højbjerg is maybe a better choice, but even though he has scored a couple of fine goals this season (and IS a fighter), he is NOT an attacking midfielder! Give him number six and ask him never to move forward (in my humble opinion)!
PS: What's the word on Lallana? He isn't playing, and he is old enough to maybe consider a return. We sure could use his assists! |

Followup:
: D Thanks a lot, DPeps! There's so much more I want to say about The Saints (I love the god damned club) and it's situation, so of course my point wasn't a very nuanced one. But then again, I've thought a lot about all the good english footballers we DON'T buy. They ARE expensive, but I'd rahter have one of them than Vestergaard and Højbjerg put together. Danish players do generally NOT have the skills or right mentality. |

As a new Danish "member" of The Ugly Inside, I hope You will all excuse the linguistic mistakes I'm gonna make!
It's very difficult to disagree (Saints do have clever fans!), but seen from far away Denmark, the fanbase do seem a tiny bit naïve. It's not just a better manager (than Huges) we need (even though we DO need that), we also need players who are used to winning. We don't need players who dosen't get on the teamsheet in bigger clubs, but good/succesfull players from smaller clubs. I know they are expensive, but every time a big English club buys qualified players from lower ranking ENGLISH clubs, the player seem to end up on your (or others) national team or thereabout (John Stones, Dele Alli, Kieran Trippier, Aaron Cresswell, Nathaniel Clyne, Jamaal Lascelles, Robert Holding, Chris Wood, Jeff Hendrick, Danny Ings, Will Hughes, James McCarthy, Demarai Gray, James Maddison, Jamie Vardy, Lewis Cook, and even Charlie Austin and Nathan Redmond with the right manager, springs to mind).
And why do many of the high profiled players from lower ranked clubs succeed?
They got what it takes!
They are mentally strong, they can put op a fight, and they have been "educated" in a though league, not so different from Premier League.
Therefore we need a manager who isn't blinded by cv's with big clubs on them, but one who will get us succesfull players with balls. I know Eddie Howe isn't comming, but I would personally prefer a young English manager from a smaller club over yet another failiure who has once managed a big club.
Hughes out, but don't replace him with Allardyce or something like that - then we would never get back up! |
