KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Garde tries to play the squad game but these players have no confidence. The Wycombe replay was an excellent case in point. I rate him but the circumstances in which he finds himself are not favourable. One thing I will say for the board,they do a bang-up job of gagging former managers so the most juicy bits of behind-the-scenes remain hidden. I can only imagine what Garde is dealing with - but I can only imagine what he was told before signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHV Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 In fairness to Garde I really wouldn't read too much in to today. Man City even with a so called weaker team can hammer anyone. They are a million miles ahead of us and most people to be fair. Put a top class manager in charge of them and really that should shit all over everyone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Why on earth would Pearson be better suited? Anyway onwards and upwards. The real match is against West Ham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_c Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Pearson, whose Leicester City side that were on the cusp of relegation, are now top of the league with a different manager. Yeah he's definitely a better manager than Garde. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Hasn't really delivered like I hoped since he came here, nor has he been given the chance to do so. Feel sorry for him. I'd still like him to stay for the next season in the Championship, but I also feel that it doesn't really matter as long as Lerner is our owner.

supernova26 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 The only manager in the history that gets praised for losing football matches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Too many shit players with shit attitudes in the squad, today was an opportunity for him to see if any of those losers were gonna step up and show they have what it takes to make it into his first 11, none of them did anything to improve their chances of getting into the first 11 of the worst team in the league. Just shows what a job Remi has and that it's a lose/lose situation for him as he is lumbered with shit players with shit attitudes and gets no support from the nob heads running the club to improve a shit squad. I can think of plenty of games under Remi that we would of won if we just had a clinical striker, the performances have been decent for the most part and I hope Remi sticks around because I'd like to see him given a proper go of things here but if history tells us anything its that we usually don't support the decent managers we hire and instead throw money at shit managers.

Yeah he's definitely a better manager than Garde. You do know that it was Pearson who was in charge of Leicester staying up don't you and he had them in the top teams in Europe for form for many months? Ranieri only joined them in the Summer, Pearson is a major reason why they are where they are right now, yes he's a header but that doesn't mean he isn't a decent manager.

useless Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Pearson's done less in the game than manager's we've already sacked. He'd be a step backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he's definitely a better manager than Garde. Their ascendance started while Pearson was there though. Everyone can twist any argument to suit themselves in truth.

That's my view anyway. I'm of the exact opposite opinion. Its in times like these when the club is an absolute shambles, that it is important you have a calm and composed figure capable of keeping his head while those around him are losing theirs. People like Pearson or Sherwood would be a PR embarrassment in times like these, and would probably be found swinging from the Holte end. Is Garde a good Manager? I think it's difficult to say one way or another at the moment given the situation he inherited, but his character is exactly the reason I would like him to remain in charge.

Popular Post Gary Thomas Posted January 30, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Remi is not the problem. The fact he is working under an owner who has given up, a chairman who has no clue and has inherited too many players who are not good enough is.

I think it's difficult to say one way or another at the moment given the situation he inherited, but his character is exactly the reason I would like him to remain in charge. He's improving us. But inexcusable to not have our players getting into the box. Simpleton Tim Sherwood managed that with a half time talk before managing his first game. And he seriously needs to give gabby a chance. I like many of us wish Remi well and really want him to be a success, someone said that he's probably a better manager when things are going well and i kind of understand these sentiments, however do i think that Remi can lead us straight back up again? no is the honest answer in my opinion. The championship is a horrible hurly burly marathon of a division and i just don't see Remi being able to make his mark in it, so yes with some regret for Remi, i think Pearson should come in for next season.

GENTLEMAN Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I still have faith in Garde, I think he will sort us out in the long term whatever happens this season. It would be absolute bonkers to ditch him for Pearson or Mick McCarthy, but Lerner has made similar decisions in the past (e.g. Ged for McLeish). Keep the faith.
