Sauce salad?
Nuno's doing a good job. I understand folk are sad that he's replaced Cooper, but given he hasn't really had a window and has had to work with the player inherited, in circumstances I doubt he signed up for (deduction) I think he's done a good job.
I find the whole 'slow' thing ludicrous and completely disrespectful tbh - he's clearly needed to stem the flow of goals and has set us up to achieve that, while still attempting to get a foothold on possession and threaten going forward. Don't like that he's playing players you don't rate? Well that's football management for you - I'd love to see my favourites out there every week, but as last night showed we'd be forever frail at set pieces. Also, trying to pick 11 favoured/good ones is going to be hard, given several of last night's 11 had been written off at various points in their forest careers.
And really tactically most posters, myself included, haven't got a clue in terms of how we set up and/or adapt to opposition threats. Football management is about so much more than picking your 11 favourite players.
The other recent one I've seen creep in (in various places, not just here) is the 'diesnt want to be here' line - watch him post wolves games in their successful period... It's not much different. And as if managers play out their views in public - strikes me as a real taskmaster who will fight for his players and expect the same from them. Also, football managers generally appear happier after a win, and we've not had too many of those of late.
There are very few premier league managers we could have attracted with the record of Nuno - I think that earns him some respect. I remain keen to see what he can do with this squad with a couple of windows. I'm very much 'in Nuno we trust' mode, and I certainly don't think I could do better.
