alreadyexists Posted November 15, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 15, 2021 In the video they must’ve said the word ‘press’ about a million times. I’m cautiously optimistic, like with every new beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m cautiously optimistic, like with every new beginning. Everything looks good. I remember thinking the same when Sherwood first came (and it was actually good for a while). Cautiously optimistic for sure, we need to give him time to figure this out and not heap unnecessary pressure on him. First order of business, slowing the Brighton hype train. No pressure!

Its clearly just a cardboard cut out with Jack Woodward doing a Gerrard impression from behind the camera. Embarrassing from the club. Laughing stock. Down by Christmas.

Tempo looks good, it'll take them a while to get their methods bedded in, lots of new drills, new expectations and so on, but they look on top of it.

WallisFrizz Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I keep going full circle with this one. First unimpressed that we’d even consider him, then keen to get it over the line, then happy it was done, then thinking we’d made a mistake then massively impressed by his interview and excited. Now, I’m back to remembering that we’ve still got the same players and the same injury issues (possibly new ones as well after international break). He’s not the second coming and we should maybe temper expectation. The PR for this one has been off the scale is excellent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the tempo and the urgency of it all. For anyone expecting a huge sea change by Saturday though… I can’t see it, I think it’ll take weeks until he can grind it in to the players and install a new system 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes no sense to me, it's all so obvious. Aside from the intangible stuff like attitude, aggression and commitment, they have spent their whole lives being drilled as to precisely what to do on a football pitch, particularly off the ball and particularly when you reach the higher levels. There’s obviously scope for using your intuition, but it has seemed to me for a long time that they’re lacking the correct framework to allow their talent to excel. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see anything particularly interesting or exceptional in the 3 minute training video, but I do love a gaffer getting involved. He’s still probably the most gifted player there and I do think that gives him an edge. As long as everything else is in place of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
