Can never see that happening under this fella mate - thats the difference between a manager who is the boss and one who either doesn't care (Koeman) or is too soft (Silva).
People will slowly come to understand why he booted James and brought in players like Townie as for all the dInoSaUr talk - these lads give it all on the pitch.
Running up sand dunes = commitment on the pitch.
My main gripe on the Rodriguez fiasco is him not being truthful. Why not just say he's not my kind of player as he doesn't put in the level of effort i require from my players. Just be honest and i would have no problem with him getting rid of anybody if he explained it truthfully. To say he would only be available for 50% of the season but then play rondon who I'm fitter than just leaves a bad taste. I voted yes by the way so not in the camp of never accepting the guy, his small club comments are irrelevant to me a quip i rank alongside
Moyes and his the peoples club. I was more bothered about the fact his last jobs have been less than successful plus going to China for a job in football smacks of retirement, but hey its been a good solid start.
