Bruno Lage

[theweave]

- Don’t spend any money
- stay up

That’s the philosophy

Then why did they sack Nuno?

 

[Manic88]

Then why did they sack Nuno?

Because he was in danger of missing the 2nd objective. And now looks like Lage might too.

They sacked him after we were safe. And Bruno has us 8th. I don't understand your logic

No doubt Bruno is here for next season. A snippet from the Wolves website. Let the crying begin.... Or cheering!
“We have a lot of good players here, they want to continue to work hard and now the hard task for me, as the manager, is to identify which group will stay here, which players will go and to rebuild the next team of Wolves.”

 

[Deleted member drgr12429]

I sympathise with Traore. I was so good that I was marked out of every Sunday game and only managed a handful of goals per season.

What's that got to do with the price of fish?

Surprises me if this analysis has not already been completed.

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Which is an excellent point.
Conte did need 2 quality players to make progress though. Until he got Bentancur and Kulusevski in, he spent most of the time moaning that he didn’t have the tools or mentality to make a success of it.
2 world class players in your squad is also a massive boon, takes less magic to build the whole team around Kane and Son.

Good point about Bentancur and Kulusevski in particular. They have both made a big difference to Spurs performances and results since they arrived.

Nuno was taking us down this season, worst performances since the double relegation. Relegation form from October to May.


Might not be able to see that on ceefax though….

 

[Don Corleone]

We usually get another wolves story that's all as that is when the embargo ends

Ah sorry mate I gotcha

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

I don't care whether you thought Kevin Thelwell, Kevin James or Kevin Keegan signed them. Nuno was the gaffer when they came in. Fact

Another fact. Nuno didn't sign them. I can't imagine he rocked up at Compton and said...

"right then fellas, I've had my eyes on these two free transfers from Norwich for a while now, I was gonna take 'em to Porto but I'm here now, so..."

But you could with your crystal ball

 

[wwbug]

Traore wanted OUT.

The board wanted him to stay…….that’s why they offered him a contract extension.

Why not replace him , with another equivalent value loanee . A £25 million player.
Because not having him here , as an option, at all cannot be a benefit in any way.

 

[wwbug]

I have this niggling doubt that Bruno may be flakey .

 

[BCWolf]

Bruno talking like he is staying. Too bad.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

I have this niggling doubt that Bruno may be flakey .

Psoriasis?

 

[Chris H]

Psoriasis?

Bless you.

Couple of brain cells is all that’s needed.

You doubt that he is flaky or you have a doubt about the fact he might be flaky?

Not that easy in a January window.
Maybe they tried to replace him but we seldom if ever learn who we were trying to get in.

Then why did they sack Nuno?

Nuno left/ was sacked because he knew he couldn't get more out of this squad without further investment.....when it became obvious to him that wasn't going to happen he decided it was time to move on and was then thrown under the bus by Shi to save face.

The quotes from Bruno about it being a " busy" summer were also used by Nuno in the days before he left.

Nuno was 100 per cent sacked. Reason given internally was poor performance of the team and needed a change.

I hear very very little but this and the Jota news are the only real tidbits I've heard from very reliable folk.

So will Bruno next season, we’ve lost 12 of the last 16 games and can’t score for toffee…

Utter and complete BS! You really don't have a ****ing clue.

 

[Fifty Niner]

Given Wolves history in the transfer market in recent years, I’d be be very much surprised if it had (been completed)!

 

[Jamwolf]

The performances concern me more than the results.

Absolutely.
It's absurd to say that we cant judge Bruno on a season's football.

 

[Hot Fuss]

Again, It’s 9 in the last 16 league games.

No one wants to hear facts

25 points from our final 25 games last season under Nuno.

That is relegation form, even you can’t deny that.

 

[Zico]

It's your judgement that that form would have extended over the whole of this season. Fair enough to have that opinion, that doesn't mean you have to insult people's intelligence if they don't agree with you.

Just dealing in facts. I said it’s relegation form, which it is. 25 games is a big chunk of games. Never said it would have extended into the following season and havnt questioned anyones intelligence. Can only assume you’ve mixed me up with someone else.

It was purely to illustrate that this set of players have struggled for results and goals for long periods under 2 managers and it’s the squad that needs changing in my opinion rather than the manager.

Bruno has 31 points from his last 25 and according to some deserves the boot. Nuno got 25 from his last 25 and is brilliant according to the same posters. Baffles me.

That's exactly how it's looking. That we got a lift from the classic "new manager bounce", but in the end, that only goes so far. We might scrape a 1-0 win against Norwich, just like we did against Fulham and Sheff U at end of last season. Not convincing, but just enough to keep all the arguments going: "We'll be fine with a new CH/CM/CF" against "Relegation battle next season unless half the club is sacked ASAP".

Find me one single post on here that said Nuno was brilliant last season. Your boy Bruno is losing plot so you start making up things to justify it. People were still willing to back Nuno based on what he had actually achieved here, his connection with the club, the fans and the City. Despite a poor season during a pandemic he still had credit in the bank with a lot of people. Bruno hasnt got that and he hasnt earned it either.

We played poorly last season, and we havent really played a great deal better this season and our performances over the last 15 games or so, regardless of the competition, have just as bad as last season. If he gets the sack he can have no complaints.

Well done on getting the “your boy Bruno” line in again Muggy, nearly as funny as the Villa fan stuff.

I’m not making things up, some posters who had nervous breakdowns when Nuno got the boot are the same ones wanting Bruno gone. Personally I don’t get it but that’s just my opinion.

I, as usual, disagree with a lot of your post but can’t be ***** to to argue with you again pal.

You are making things up. Like i said, nobody said Nuno was brilliant last season like you are claiming. I could be wrong, but i doubt i am. And also like i said, Nuno had a connection with a lot of people here and had credit in the bank. Lage doesnt have that, I doubt Lage will ever have that.

Its hard for you to argue when you get called out on things you have clearly either got wrong or made up to try to justify your mates current failings.

 

[Brixton Wanderer]

It seems Bruno has an impossible task of winning some of our fans over simply as he’s not Nuno. Many just haven’t took to him through not wanting to.

 

[Mugwump]

Couldnt care less tbh. When you make up things that just arent true you are going to get called out on it. He's clearly a Bruno disciple and thats fine, people have their favourites, but dont try to justify his current failings by saying people were calling NES brilliant when everyone could clearly see he wasnt last season.

I think plenty want him to succeed. People are just looking at our current run of results and probably more our standard of performance and have concerns, and i couldnt blame any fan for being concerned. I dont think any of that has anything to do with Nuno because plenty were of the same opinion about how we were going last year. When you are in poor form and more importantly playing poorly the manager is obviously going to be put under pressure.

We should all want him to succeed. Plenty isn’t nowhere near enough.

Plenty is enough. You will always get some people who want better than what we currently have or who just dont like certain people for whatever reason. You wont ever please all of the people all of the time.
