If Farke is under pressure for his style of play, Corberan's turgid offering will be even worse.
Rohl or the QPR guy show promise or even Eustace

Carrick shown potential at Boro also.

Though none of these names fill me with confidence. It's a league full of mediocrity.

Every fan forum in this League moans about same shit... "one dimensional"..."Clueless subs"...etc.

The other part of my post is the backing of who ever, i don’t think makes any difference with farke but someone coming in would need guarantees, Equally as important as getting the right man.Would they do it.

Fully agree about Corberan, but even he seems to be able to change things about where farke just cannot

Corberan's niche is making teams tough to beat. There's no flexibility in tactics, we saw that last month when we parked the bus there and he did fuck all different. He'd be useless here.

They’d all face the same problem - teams packing the defence when they face us. Honestly think we’ve seen more teams do that in just over 12 months than we did in 2 season under Bielsa in this league.

Can only remember Ipswich and Leicester going toe to toe with us at ER, and we scored 7.

Bielsa’s tactics forced them out though, Farkes slow ball is futile, they have time to regroup, have a cuppa and regroup again. It just doesn’t play to our strengths. We now also lack players who when luck is with us can unlock the defense. He just cannot see that when we score it’s through pace in attack and quick build up.

If we are not spending money in January, we need a manager who can get the best out of Piroe.

Unless they're doing a production of The Invisible Man at local theatres I fail to see what opportunities Leeds holds for him.

The guy can finish. No doubt. But he runs like he's just woken from a general anaesthetic.

40 goals in 2 seasons for Swansea mind. I've read he played as a kind of second striker/10 there. Not as a creator, but just arriving on the scene from deep to finish. I think he needs someone up there with him doing his running. I don't think it suits him playing in the 10 against teams sitting back as there's more onus on him to create.

Seems a very niche player to me. A luxury even. Probably have to build the team around him to get the best out of him.

I actually feel sorry for Piroe. He comes across such a humble and polite young man. Never moans. Always looks over the moon when we win. Yet fans get on his back (including me) because he's been asked to play a way he's not comfortable with.
