Putting the bad mouthing of Ange to the side …This is stuff that came out of the 'reveiw'. The coaching team got an absolutely mercilessly critique from Ange down, the level of practical and logistically issues raised around the player fitness recovery and tactical preparedness didn't reflect well at all. Someone said 'Michelin star facilities McDonald's chefs' .
Ange is a great motivator, no questions about it, but other aspects and details got seriously slept on. Some argue he was let down by people he put trust in. But he placed that trust in them he made the call to come to his biggest job without an established backroom.
One thing that has apparently been 'learned' is they this doesn't work Nuno got similarly separated from a long standing assistant and suffered too. There's loads of anecdotes about confused players tactically . And loads about poor conditioning.
Utter arseholes to a man
Intellectual children every one of them
Frank doesn't stand a chance with these babies mourning over their adopted daddy
Bloke from Brentford thinks more of THFC than half the fanbois. Who want us grateful for 17th and a cup. Get to fuckFrom Brentford Forum
some on here thinking it’s not a big move upwards is just sticking one’s head in the sand …they have one of the best grounds in the world, a decent squad on paper with money to spend for the CL campaign, one of the most loyal supports home and away (far far better than Woolwich)….etc etc …plus if he likes living locally to TW8 he doesn’t have to move which will prob be a major family factor too
If offered the job he’s gone like Mr Gump going for a run![]()
When he joined wasn't it mentioned that Ange generally joins clubs alone?Putting the bad mouthing of Ange to the side.
100% - Managers need to be allowed to bring their staff with them.
Surprised managers (Ange, Nuno, Conte) agreed to join us without their team … Levy setting things up so we can’t get the best out of our managers.
If Frank joins, he needs to insist/be allowed to bring his people …
Just having to counter the numpties in the fanbase who have already decided he's a bust without knowing - or understanding - anything about him... or football.I sense a "cult" forming around him already....and he hasn't even been announced yet!
okYou will 100% be the first to call Frank shit and want him out,
If not you have to change your username and entire persona on here.
That’s all well and good but that belief and fight needs to be backed up with some tactical nous, which sadly Ange didn’t seem to haveHonestly, with just 3 decent signings, I genuinely think we have a squad capable of challenging top 4 and having a proper go in all cup competitions. For me, Ange had the belief and fight that is vital for teams that win. Frank hasn't got that and if he wins us anything or gets top 4 next season it will be a miracle. But hey, he's a nice guy, maybe he'll get a trophy for that.
Have you lot read what Steve Perryman has said? This has been an open secret and theres lots to this story untold.
You feeling ok, RA??
We want a manager who can stand there and say, "Who is the best fucking team in NORTH London?".
Don’t worry, they will be sucking Frank off in no time, they just need a replacement for Ange’s dick. This guy will be their new hero soon.Just having to counter the numpties in the fanbase who have already decided he's a bust without knowing - or understanding - anything about him... or football.
Necessary work.
He's coming here.
If it all goes left I'll be first in line to get him out.
Because THFC always comes first.
Because I'm not a fannyboy feelz merchant like the deranged Ange stans who are trying to create a toxic environment for this guy to step into.
Not having it, and they can all get bent.
Enough tactical nous to win the Europa league, and beat Brentford home and away last season. But yeah, lets replace him with the tactical genius who managed Brentford in those games.That’s all well and good but that belief and fight needs to be backed up with some tactical nous, which sadly Ange didn’t seem to have

It's almost like we didn't finish 19 points behind them, such was the tactical mastery of AngeEnough tactical nous to win the Europa league, and beat Brentford home and away last season. But yeah, lets replace him with the tactical genius who managed Brentford in those games.
Maybe if he puts on weight, starts calling everyone "mate" and just stares on gormlessly during matches not saying anything, then yeah... they should take to him.Don’t worry, they will be sucking Frank off in no time, they just a replacement for Ange’s dick. This guy will be their new hero soon.
Aight.
