Not sure he was from mcr. But shagger he was

Still remember a passage of play (hull away I think) with elano, Johnson etc stroking the ball around as the best thing I'd seen us do until maybe the pep side of 2017-18.

Could he have done something if the money had came into club year earlier??? Did fantastic pre England days. Probably best days behind him by last noughties

Good man. We played some brilliant stuff the first half of the year under him. The second half is best not to mention. Will never say a bad word about him.

I quite liked the Sven period.

Had a few really decent and capable players and there was a sense of optimism after the horrific 10 goal at home season under Stuart Pearce.

He was really calm, and at times funny in a really dry way in press conferences, and I seem to remember one where Joey Barton supposedly made a comment about our takeover by Shinawatra, suggesting that it may not have happened if it hadn't been for him (indicating that his performances the season before had kept us in the Premier League).

It was put to Sven and his reply was a simple 'Thank You' with a confused kind of smile and little laugh.

I preferred Sven to the two managers either side of his reign.

We played really well until Christmas when we got mauled at Chelsea. Never really recovered after that and fell off a cliff
