The_Steve Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 We know change won’t come overnight, but the joy this appointment brings us something we can truly build from. It’s not an unknown gamble. But one of real quality and ambition. If Deano got this sleeping giant back on its feet, Unai is ready to help it walk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is known as an europa league coach doing best with underdog clubs rather than the huge clubs with expectations to win. He had only won one league title and that was with PSG. He is probably in the category just below elite but I'm excited to see what he can achieve here and if he can take us into Europe. He is a elite manager look at what he has won Would you say poch is a elite manager? Or potter? Emerys achived more than chelseas current manager has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday morning a manager like Emery would go nowhere near us, now they are saying he's crap. Funny that. Eat shit Paddy Power WE GOT UNAI!

one_ian_taylor Posted October 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2022 Lots of excitement. A little unfait to set expectations, but what do people think would be good progress over the next 2-3 years? For me, great progress would be: - Consistenrly improved performances and value from the existing squad - top half of the league for 2-3 year consecutive years - cup final or two - youth players brought through - steady evolution in terms of transfers and good value (players with a lot of upside, but not necessarily huge transfers) Thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don’t want to dampen anybodys enthusiasm after a miserable couple of months but he has a tough set of opening fixtures and we might hover around the lower half of the table for a while yet but this is definitely worth plenty of time and patience and not getting on his back straight away.

Playing with a consistent style and identity, integrating youth and experience and getting the best out of the current crop until we bring in quality replacements. First goal is to break the top 10 by next season at a minimum I feel. But he’s going to be backed hard, hence the long contract and extension option. He’s still only 50 and achieved a lot, but returns to the league to prove the Sky 6 media types wrong. But it’s a project he can fully shape and who wouldn’t want that? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually you see or two reservations or a counter argument at least. Just seems everyone is on board with this. Truly amazing. What more can NSWE do to try and bring success? We have all the ingredients now surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way would he have been in post after that 1st year at utd. Pep elite? At two of the best clubs in the world and one club with unlimited money where he still caNt win CL? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted October 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2022 Still buzzing about this. Now Unai is definitely a manager that "deserves a pre-season" so let's not get too critical too quickly. Will no doubt take time to implement his structure after 18months of Stevie.

I just want to see some performances first off. Win, lose or draw, I want to see us with us looking like a football team and enjoy watching the majority of games, even if we lose, which we will sometimes. 1 minute ago, rjw63 said: I've seen plenty of "He was shit at Arsenal".

The people saying that should go and have a look at the Arsenal squad that season, it was terrible bar a few players. Yet he managed 5th and a Europa final.

Poch has also never won a trophy outside of psg. You can make an argument for tuchel of course. Poch would have been very exciting, but emery’s achieved much more I said it yesterday in this thread. I reckon outside of the UK people would rate Emery higher than Poch. The only thing Poch has that Emery doesn't is a more successful stint in the premier league (and even that is because Emery's time at Arsenal is underrated) This is probably a better appointment than Poch 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
