I don't think the brand of football is too important at this stage. Its results that matter.
Even Frank's football would have been palatable if it was producing results.
He might be good he might be shit but I am not sure 3 at the back is worse than 433 considering our lack of wingers.
3 at the back we have Palhinha, Dragusin, Romero, VDV, Byfield, Bissouma and Gray who are either CB’s or have played that role. We currently don’t have any out and out wingers available so any 433 we have minimal width.
3 at the back also allows us to play Porro and Souza as wing backs to generate width and thus our 3 forwards Xavi, Solanke and Tel can play more central. 343 or 352 might be simply not doable than 433 due to our injury crisis.
and for him. Do well with us and suddenly other PL clubs might take note and give him a job in the summer. A great chance for him, so he will be highly motivated not to fuck it up.
I think this maybe the single most stupid mistake we have ever made
Sacked multiple times a NO PL experience ....
I'd expected more from this sh!t board...
This might end in tears...I desperately hope I'm wrong...
Maybe but he looked like a guy who had never played football before in the Newcastle game. I don't know if you can really trust him.
He better be gone.
Who'd you have gotten out of interest
Fingers crossed, we'll have these lads back in the coming games:
Porro, Richy -> Fulham (game after Scum)
Udogie -> Liverpool (4 games from now)
Romero -> Forest (game after Liverpool)
Kudus -> Sunderland (game after Forest, but there are Champions League matches in between).
Which means that we'll have most of these players (barring any setbacks, which is almost a certainty with our medical staff) for this final run of fixtures:
Brighton (H)
Wolves (A)
Villa (A)
Leeds (H)
Chelsea (A)
Everton (H)

It was more that he either quits or gets sacked abruptly
Just reading the BBC have your say page... so many criticising the appointment. Now I know they are mostly rival fans putting the boot in, but the common trend is that he doesn't have any PL experience. I'm actually glad he doesn't. Frank had tons of PL experience and how did that work out? Then look at Slot... no PL experience, wins the PL, now he has PL experience his team are shite. Le Bris, no PL experience but you wouldn't know it... I don't think PL experience makes any difference... quality of player, injuries, luck... there are so many other parameters that will determine how we finish this season... 4 wins... that's all he needs... I'll be backing him!!!
Seen someone thinking of changing their username to Tudor Cinema Club.
I may go with this Scottish comedy show:

Tudor’s Down.
Tudor Cinema Club was a pseudonym used by the indie-pop band Two Door Cinema Club for a secret, three-date Irish tour in April 2016. It was a "tribute act" to themselves, marking their first live appearances in over two years. The name is a direct reference to the local cinema in their hometown of Bangor, Northern Ireland, which inspired their original band name.
Looking on the positive side, he is not Frank and that is just what we need! 
It's 100% a ploy to get the supporters on their side. Very few fans are going to complain about Poch being appointed or call for his head when we play poorly. I don't believe Vinai and co. actually believe Poch is the best manager available who'll sign with us.
What the board and ENIC don't realize is that the anger will be directed right at them when things go south. Frank was a useful patsy because he distracted everyone from the real problem at the club.
You are pissing into a tidal wave a mile high and moving towards you at the speed of sound.
Poch is inevitable at this point. I totally agree with you btw. I don't get the rose tinted nature of wanting a man who pissed away the best team this club had since the 60's without so much as a league cup to show for it. but I gave up and accepted it a while back. Just highlights the low bar of the fan base.
I'm willing to bet that almost any appointment at this stage would split the fan-base. Even Lord Poch.
Risky pulling in an unproven Prem manager? Sure is. It could go well, it could go badly. But our side has lacked an identity and front-foot mentality for so long now, I just want to see the team giving it a go again from the off. Igor might be the guy we need to do that for a while.
It wasn't who I was expecting. But I'm going to be full Igor if he gets the points we need this season to stay safe. And if he does, I'll be changing my avatar in his honour.

Well, it is where we now are. Just need to get behind the big guy now and hope he can win some players over and then some games.
Have the club even officially announced it?
This appointment is embarrassing. We are a laughing stock. Can you imagine what headlines they are going to write after we get battered by Woolwich. We have just employed Lurch.
