Lamouchi - what did he ever do for us ?

[A Quiet Monkfish]

...apart from securing Championship safety. Actually, did we survive because of Lamouchi, or despite Lamouchi ? We're no better than we have been throughout the season. We don't look as if we play any different. We can't even take a decent corner. Results ? We've average 1.17 points per game under his management - 1.22 under Morison.

If he stays, he may improve the team with good loan signings and free transfers, but I'm not sure what the desperation is to keep him for another season. I would prefer Nathan Jones - if he would come.

He didn’t use that ridiculous new type of ‘football manager speak’ that Morison & Hudson used in interviews

You can’t polish a turd. Lamouchi got the best out of this squad I think. Remember these aren’t his players. I think we’ll improve under him next season probably still be lower table but not in relegation scrap as much as this season

Did we average 1.22 points per game under Morison? Didn't he get 11 points from 10 games, so around about about 1.1.

But he didn't get the best out of them. Morison got more.

Re: Lamouchi - what did he ever do for us ?

He's certainly got enough results to get us over the line

We were definitely heading for relegation under Hudson even though Hudson was doing his best as a young manager

Whilst there were times when it looked like were were going the same way I think lamouchi needs to be given the job as this club needs stability

He knows the players and hopefully will be able to see what's needed to keep us up

We have to stay in this division by any means necessary

No he didn't. We had a fortunate win on the opening day and a freak first half at Boro after he started to panic and change shape, which he almost managed to chuck away in the second half. Despite that we were still heading downwards, we'd have been in the same situation had he stayed on until January and was sacked when Hudson was, maybe even worse

Morison was not a good manager, there's a reason no club's gone anywhere near him

Morison had lost the plot

Lamouchi or a similar type of manager should have been appointed immediately

Think he probably meant last season as well. I tend to agree with the OP about the desperation to sign him up - would Morison and Hudson won those three recent away games for us? Possibly, but I don’t think we’d have scored eight goals in doing it. Lamouchi has improved our goalscoring and he did well to get us averaging more than a goal a game given our previous scoring rate. However, after a good start with a bold approach that helped beat Reading and the wurzels, I’d say recent home performances have, if anything, been worse than earlier in the season under our other two managers.

He was employed to keep us up

He did it with 3 games to spare

The other two may have but we will never go

In the absence of Eddie howe and a transfer budget I think we go with sabri

They'd have both taken us down for sure, with five games to go, they were useless, they weren't even Managers.

I agree with you

Lamouchi wasn't exactly a messiah but he did enough in the end

Now he deserves a chance

A choice between Lamouchi and Nathan Jones - you choose.

He had us at the end of the season, the teams with the weakest squads always struggle at the end of the season, having Robinson suspended and injured for most of his tenure didn't help, along with the other best players missing games through injury.

Morison had the full squad available and quite a good first eleven at the start, although lost Collins quickly, and Hudson had more players and Robinson available.

Let's see what he can do in the limited transfer market he gets, there has been talk of him using contacts with European clubs, but let's see if that is just all talk.

Lamouchi

Nathan Jones cracked at Southampton

This may not be a big Premier league job but the pressure put on Cardiff managers from the fans and the media is way above what it should be
