Liam Rosenior

No I can fully understand people’s apathy (or worse) at the prospect of Rosenior and of the two being talked about now I’d much prefer Jansen.

The club haven’t helped themselves yet again with this saga. If, five months after sacking Beale they appoint Rosenior, no matter how they try and spin it, the appointment will be a big disappointment to many and yet more ammunition for those who think despite all the laudable rhetoric they’re really just winging it.

We all know he wouldn’t have been on their list (whatever number we are down to now) if he wasnt free

That's it on Rosenior in that we could have had him a good while back, and the club will try and spin it he was one of our top targets.
Over Jansen he knows the league so won't be a surprise, but he would have to be allowed a few staff to come in with him.
 
He seems a decent enough manager but he didn’t inspire a Hull team with a big budget and better players. In the two games against us, Beale won comfortably enough at Hull and we should have beaten them here but we missed a load of chances and they scored off a huge deflection in one of their only attacks.

However, I’d give him a chance but a 34% win ratio at Hull isn’t setting the pulses racing. I would prefer Jansen for the totally illogical reason that I know very little about him, perhaps I’m a victim of European equals good.

Fear of the unknown turns to Fear of the known in football :lol:
 
Speakers taking incredibly long on purpose, to make the shit appointments not seem so bad. :cool:

The bloke is an absolute god
 
I can't see him fitting in with the model. Hull invested heavily in attacking players plus a goalkeeper to replace what was accepted as being a huge weak link. Rosenier point blank refused to replace the keeper despite several further blunders and persisted with the slow ponderous playing out from the back despite that being their obvious weak link. That doesn't sound like someone who would fit in with the approach here which is build around developing player capital. I'm sure some of you will be cheering that, but that's not the point. Why would our current owners wish to employ someone who is constantly going to be doing things his way.

But this is how our hierarchy want us to play, so may be seen as a positive

I see what you mean, but my point was that if there are tensions between what the hierarchy want to do and what he wants to do, then he won't compromise ... at all ... and even if the players available change to a set which makes his way even less viable. So definitely not a 'yes' man and that may be very appealing to this board. But you can go a little too far in the other direction.
