We were a lost puppies vs. bloodhounds on the day regardless.

But he is a miracle worker. I think I love the man. A big shout to MAF and 2007 staff for finding him when he was no one outside of Malmo to Milan.

I think Palace are going to have as much reason to thank him as we had. Funny how he didn't do so well at Liverpool.

Think that was down to the arrogant nature of scousers & maybe the players not buying into his methods. Dont think Roy liked Prima Donna's & there were plenty in the scouse scum team then.

roy has a way of doing things and you accept it or you are not going to be happy. big clubs and big time players do not like his regimental tactics and methods and so he did not do well at Liverpool or England. However, at teams like ours, WBA and Palace, his approach works brilliantly and because it achieves relative success he is taken to peoples hearts.

yep, listened to an interview with Zamora recently, he said Roy's training sessions were so utterly boring and repetitive and you didn't really see the point of them until after a few games. So if he can't get people to buy in from the start then he's not going to do well

Yes, remember Simon Davies being interviewed and he said that the first 4 or 5 sessions were completely and utterly without the ball, just going over team shape and where each player had to be in a given situation. He said that they all thought he'd lost it and did for quite a while. Then the results started coming and they understood what they'd been doing.
