At this point just survival this season would be my expectation nothing more.

I would agree with Robbo though , its the sitting back that makes us tired . When the other side has the ball and you're chasing shadows it's more tiring than keeping possession yourself .

So on that note Im expecting more possession . His style to date would indicate the width will come from the full backs so Im also expecting the end of us playing wingers . Maybe not replacing Zaha was always the plan and Glasner has been lined up for some time

Our attacking options suddenly look half decent with a narrow front three and runners from the midfield .The players we have brought in the last years (Ahamada ,Lerma ,Franca and Watson ) certainly fit a Glasner style more than Roys .

The cunning plan has been exposed , lets hope its worth it

I reckon this is a decent take to his approach on things and there were certainly signs against Everton. This is primarily why I was advocating giving Ayew a shot at LWB in another thread. I reckon it’s easier to convert him to an effective wing back than Mitchell and we would then have decent width with Munoz on the right.

Stay up whatever it takes, sell Olise and one of the CDs in the summer, 100m, keep the other CD, Doucoure and Eze, and buy 4/5 players that suite his style, get rid of Schlupp, Hughes, Jairo, Clyne and Tomkins, contracts up, give Ward one year extension. Keep Johnstone, and loan out Hendersen for a year to improve, get some Austrian keeper as second keeper

If Guehi goes plus your list that could easily raise £150m. e.g. Olise £70m, Guehi £65m plus the others.

That will give us a hell of a fighting fund to wreak havoc in the transfer market.

I am still in shock and very impressed by what Steve Parish et all have pulled off in the last few weeks. Top drawer dealing.
Hopefully all the board is on board to roll out a very exciting future. Maybe they will throw in a decent chunk so we can really go to town.
I am in awe of what they have just pulled off.
It was all achieved with a huge amount of diplomacy, sensitivity and caring. Well done Parish and your team.
Amazing.

More tinkering? No thanks. I would expect Glasner to outline exactly what he expects from Mitchell whilst bigging him up at the same time.

Fair enough, a lot for me depends on how much defending he envisages the wing backs doing. I’m not sure I’ve seen enough natural ability in Mitchell going forwards for him to excel in that position. Maybe Adaramola might be more the attacking wing back we are after. As you say though, not much point in second guessing at the moment.

One thing I expect him to deliver: in almost all circumstances, have some ambition when we have the ball.

While sitting back is one thing, I think it is an okay strategy provided there is a plan to counter properly and dangerously when in possession. At times under Roy, we tried to soak and soak and soak up pressure and it's an incredibly difficult task.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

Sky Germany reported amazement that Glasner was joining a "small English club".

In a way I see their point as Wolfsburg and Eintracht have European pedigree and we have that Zenith Data thing. However...

Firstly, outside Bayern Munich and a couple of other clubs, the Bundesliga ain't all that. The EPL is the dominant force in world club football and we are now in our 11th season bang in the middle of it.

Secondly, a closer examination of Glasner. A filler of trophy cabinets, sure, but he was sacked from his last job for not winning for 10 games. His CV is toxic in Germany, he has a reputation for being difficult with management, and there was no orderly queue for his services. What better place to launder his CV than in a club like ours in the best league in the world?

The match is about right, I would say.


In property development, it’s always a case of buy the worst house in the best street. Done right the profits/gains take care of themselves especially if the ingredients are there already. This pretty much works every time.
Same applies to us I think. s*** team in a great league under performing with injured stars. I think OG can see this.

Done right we should easily be the top team outside of the big boys.

We could be one of the top teams outside the big teams…….but not if we sell 3 stars in the summer as some seem to be advocating.
We’ve not managed to replace Zaha and Olise and Eze would also be difficult to replace.
It’s no coincidence that we’ve struggled to win games without them.
There isn’t a conveyor belt of equivalent talent waiting to replace them.

We’re not Brighton who manage to sell their players at way over the odds and then allow themselves a small smile as they fail to deliver for their new clubs not schooled in the Brighton system of play.

New managers … who knows how it will ever turn out.
Who remembers going away to Burnley September 2017 and Wayne Hennessy trying to play out form the back via Chung young Lee… remember how that ended.
I’m sure this time the intended new mode of play will not be such a radical change for the players.

I honestly don’t see the club selling. Only if a player really kicks up a stink. I actually think that MG would be the most likely but only if one of the title challengers comes calling with a guarantee to start after he does well for England.

Eze, Olise, I think with there injury record and there age another club will want to see a consistent run of injury free games or it would be a reduced offer which I don’t see us taking.

Doucoure would have been a major candidate after the madness of last summers prices for central midfielders but as with Eze and Olise I think a view will be taken by the big boys here and abroad as he may not be the same player on his return.

Overall I think we are going to be in a great position start of next season so long as we stay up. Being as Luton just lost 4 -1 , looking better than a couple of weeks ago.

I still have nightmares over that. Not sure why, but it does stick in the mind.
