Hugo Lloris

kimchi

Mate it is annoying , I spend all my time staring at SSN hoping a nice yellow bar will come up
Levy has a massive balancing act on his hands , he has to keep us lot happy by getting decent players in but he cannot go potty on wages and he has to put a few quid by for the stadium so he tries his damndest to squeeze every penny he can

I know squid, and overall he's done pretty well I reckon, but we've had some VERY hard knocks along the way eh? And he keeps flipping between different management set-ups when the last one didn't work out. It's very much trial and error, and I personally don't believe the 'error' bit is over yet. Time will tell if AVB's given time. He needs it, we're undergoing a complete revolution, with almost all of Harry's work being thrown out imo. I'm not against that, it's just he's staked big this time...just as he did under Ramos, who did well for us until half the squad was changed, and then look how that turned out.

We will see! I still believe. COYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What was the answer Kimchi ??

The new stadium - Not yet agreed or announced

6 or 7 top 5 finishes - Sacked both managers who got us there

some stunning football - agreed

turning the club into a success in the 11 years he's been here , have a look at the 11 years before he came and compare where we finished - two league cups.

@FrenchFtWeekly @BhagArjunBhag Anyway RMC radio reports a text from Lloris' father saying he is "sorry to see his son leaving Lyon"




Right i'm going back to watch 'The prestige'

Don. prob just leaving home at last

Squid - the answer (I think) is that they're the last three permanent managers we've appointed in the off-season...and look how the first two turned out, both backed to the hilt too (although Ardiles was obviously pre-Levy).

Ramos did well with the squad he inherited when he was appointed (not in the league but we won the cup in glorious style on the way in the semi) but as we all know the revolving door at the start of the next season had us all foaming at the mouth with expectation, and look what it came to

Sorry, don't mean to be a doom-mongerer, but I think we've got to temper our expectations of AVB and give him at least a season and a half, because we've been here before under Levy and it didn't work out well (last season's summer transfer window probably cost us third place as much as anything else imho, and he's done almost the same thing this time).

Just saying. We appear to be moving in the right direction, especially with the stadium, I just hope AVB is given time, because so far I reckon he hasn't put a foot wrong, but if things go bosoms up I worry he'll be the fall-guy.

Right, onto positivity from here on in (until tomorrow night at least )

COYS

Kimchi...... spot on mate

As for AVB I've no idea if he will be great or garbage for us only time will tell but I do believe we have to give the guy a chance to prove it either way

Couldn't agree more Squid, and that's all I hope for really this season, give the guy a chance. He's been backed in a revolution in personnel (bit late! But...) and playing style so we must back him for a fair bit, whatever happens
