On football focus ,that every team he has managed he has improved that team, He quoted Wycombe and FULHAM, what planet does live on??
I would love to get Barnet in the FA cup.
Easy win, and a chance to mock Sanchez
Well it did improve.....when he left. He did bring in some good players, he just did not know what to do with them.
I couldn't believe my ears still an arrogant mug...never did never will like the bloke.
Sanchez is another 'if only' manager. He brought in some great players as mentioned. But when Swart was playing for Boro and cheated us out of a comeback by pushing the ball when it was over the line. Sanchez went back to playing tactics which didn't fit the players. Just like Jol really. Except Jol will be able to bring in players that will play his style of football.
But like Hughes, Sanchez had an ego that was too big for him. Unlike Hughes he had trouble backing it up.
So it was all Swarts fault 079.gif

Loved the bit why he couldn't get a job, too big for the small clubs, unproven for the big clubs, only thing big about him is his ego which is vastly over inflated.
Sanchez did definitely improve Fulham. He made the club far more wary of employing managers like him.
Funny man...hope he has an xmas DVD coming out, I may just choose that instead of the Jack Dee one.

Alas, you'll have to wait until next year. If he lasts that long
He was a very lucky boy to be given a chance at Fulham. But he was an arrogant, talentless mug when he got the job, and was exactly the same when he left it. Time clearly hasn't improved him - nor his misguided and overweening sense of self esteem. Obscurity beckons, it's only a matter of time. Let's hope it's soon....... 083.gif
The fact that it took him so long after he lost the Fulham job to get another one and that when he did it was at L2 level says it all really. To be fair he did bring in some good players and he was hampered by the loss of Brian McBride for virtually all of his time at the club. H ewould also have benefited from a fit Jimmy Bullard. The return of both of these players were a signifcant contribution to our great escape under Hodgson.
The comparison earlier in this thread between Sanchez and Hughes was apt. Both managers represent a wasted year between other more significant managers.
he did improve it as someone already said when he left we played better
Good to see his side under his expert guidence has progressed in the cup 064.gif 064.gif
Had he just done the caretaker stint at the end of that season and kept us up, then yes he could have said he improved us because, in the last months of Cookie, we were utter pants.
Ironically, had he just done the caretaker stint, he'd have had a few job offers I reckon - can't remember which other bottom half Prem teams were shedding managers at the time but I daresay a few, plus of course the 3 relegated ones.
Thin line between self-belief and arrogance isn't there? You need plenty of the former, which can sometimes come across as the latter. That he hasn't actually done anything since us speaks volumes. Other managers have made teams look as bad as he made us look and worked again, albeit they probably had higher-profile playing careers, but I suspect he gives very bad interview. He must have been on a few shortlists.
He did sign Hughes and Baird which improved us,
but he also signed Bouazza and Seol Ki-Hyeon.

I couldn't watch it again WN !
He did, in the same way Nero improved Rome by burning down all those old houses...
Just because he bought players that are good now doesn't mean he improved us. On the football pitch, we were piss poor. His general club performances has been poor League wise which is the most important part of management. Still living off those victories over Spain and England.

He also signed a very good Steven Davis and we sold a completely dejected, lost and unconfident one. Completely ruined him by playing him in the centre with Murphy. If the arrogant knob put a ball winner in with Murph and Davis on the left (great delivery and therefore no room for Bouazza) we might have been safe earlier. But then he might have kept his job I guess!!

I still don't get this. Clearly a very insecure man, but arrogant? Just trying to convince people (and perhaps himself) that he could do the job.
I think that any manager Before roy h was poo. Apart from jean tigana

Mate a few thoughts- 1 stop swearing please. We are a board that wants everyone to be welcome- and swearing doesnt do this. Save it for the desperate times (like when we lose in the 89th min!)
and 2) cookie was good, kevin keegan was top and we had a few good managers before that
i didnt write that
my mate hacked into my account (sort of, i forgot to sign out)
for years and years, everybody knew that Muhammed Ali was the greatest. But still, he kept going out and proving it over and over.
Sanchez is kinda sorta like that. Everybody knows he's the biggest waste of chemicals collected within a human body in the whole of England. But still, he keeps going out and proving it over and over.
