Nuno Espírito Santo

It's weird to me when you watch something like this and then realise that we continued to practice heading in training.

Nuno Espírito Santo admits he ignores heading advice in Tottenham training

Ta.... Don't remember seeing that before.

Wtf was this Nuno

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

very difficult one to address, especially midseason, to be fair.

It could also just as been an anomaly, couldn't say they had a striker good enough to replace him and certain;y not as good in the air, not a forte of Traore's for example. They had many other injuries that year too, maybe one or two of those not available was also key for them at defending aerials in the box???

Or it could be the case that everyone was just mentally unable to win a header following the incident, perhaps oppo scouts noticed this and started pumping even more high balls into the box, which artificially inflated the stats???

Your last paragraph is the point I'm making. And it is pretty easy to address with physiological expertise. They were in shock it rattled and inhibited them, a decent coach would have expected it as an outcome.

Maybe, but it's all circumspect so 2+2=5 stuff. Could be nail on the head but equally way off the mark.

I would probably lean towards the side that they were affected, given some of the stats I mentioned previously and Nuno's emotional state in that interview. But without being there what's to say that Nuno's emotional state was what the players needed to galvanize them, show them, prove to them that he's on their side and manager to fight for etc etc...??

I have just watched this documentary, very well done IMO.
It is obvious that this had a profound effect on Nuno, as it would have on any human being. Thank goodness for the excellent medical support surrounding PL games, the immediate treatment undoubtedly saved Raul's life.

Just thinking about him again. What the fuck were the club thinking appointing him. He’s got to go down as one of the worst ever managerial appointments. On a par with Christian Gross for me. He’d have hated that first half tonight, far too exciting for him.

And Terry Neil

I still shudder thinking about the crap he served up

That was a weird 3-4 months as if none of it ever actually happened, he will be long in the distant memory

Someone mentioned the Burnely cup tie to me earlier today... I swore blind we'd never played them on this cup run!

Remember the Palace match, me neither but then I remembered we had a game where our xg was 0.10, that was it.

Nuno made us proud that day

You remembered a game due to xG?

Wow.

I should say it did, didn't get home until 4am

 

[imitationleather]

At least it all worked out in the end.

This summer was one of the most dispiriting periods I can recall as a fan. It felt like there was absolutely nothing to look forward to on the horizon.

Weren’t you telling everyone he should get more time and laugh reacting them when they suggested he was a bit shit?

Trooper!

Sometimes, when you go through despairing times, when you get through the other side, the good times are infinitely sweeter.
