Re: Corberan Sacked
And some want him to replace Marsch!
Re: Corberan Sacked
He was the great white hope with some of our fans as Bielsa's replacement.

Re: Corberan Sacked
Irrelevant him being sacked so soon into his new club.
In fact his record there is similar to Jesses here.
Two wins, two draws and a loss and he is out the door.
Laughable really.
Last season at Huddersfield is a superb effort and the fact they are relegation fodder without him says it all.

He was managing Olympiakos who've won 20 odd of the last 30 Greek League titles including the last 3 in a row.
For them his record is poor with them as close to the top as they are the bottom (7 points off both).
Which for a team of there standing in Greece is practically unheard of.
Never got the hype some of our fans had with Corberan.
Presumably it was some idea he would play BielsaBall but Huddersfield played dire hoof ball whenever I watched them.
Be interesting to see where he appears next.

I wonder if Steve Cooper's getting nervous now?

Seven games out of thiry eight is no way enough time to allow a manager to make an impact.Cjay wrote: ↑Mon Sep 19, 2022 8:08 pm Two aren't comparable though.

It smacks of the panic setting in across the board by over leveraged clubs

Re: Corberan Sacked
He's ploughed all his money into Forest though. Can't imagine Olympiacos fans are too happy about that, and Forest fans unhappy he still owes Olympiacos. These multi club arrangements never work out.
Re: Corberan Sacked
Perhaps not.
But he has actually been in charge of 11 games winning only 2.
In that time he has failed to beat a Slovakian team twice, a Cyprus team twice (needing pens both times to get through those Europa League qualifiers. And the two teams who finished 9th and 10th last season respectively took points off them to with 0 wins.
They are bottom of there Europa League group having got through last season.
Whether he has had enough time is debatable but he hasn't done well at all in the time he has had.
Plenty of managers get sacked for 2 wins in 11.
And based on the history of Olympiakos he would have been expected to do better.
It's like when Moyes was at Manure.

Re: Corberan Sacked
Tbf in the time he has owned Olympiakos they have won 10 League titles and 3 Greek Cups.
Forest have won promotion.
Can't imagine either fanbase is to unhappy.

Re: Corberan Sacked
You can read absolutely nothing into this re Corberan and in my eyes it does him no harm.
If you're going to be your own man and stick by the principles and style you want your team to play, then good on him.
I'll use Arteta for example, it's taken him a while to get Arsenal towards top gear, but he's slowly and correctly getting there, and without the prima donna types Abameyang etc.
He stuck to his guns and thankfully had owners that either trusted him or understood his plan.
He's got HIS TEAM of players playing how he's asking them to, a couple of cracking signings and he spotted on arrival the players and youth he felt he could work with.
I think i'm right in saying, in his first few weeks and months some fans couldn't see his vision and as per start calling for his head as they were near the bottom.
Their mouths will be shut now.

Re: Corberan Sacked
This Marinakis bloke is accused of match fixing, drug smuggling and planting a bomb at a ref's house! And he passed the EFL's fit and proper test
Re: Corberan Sacked
Olympiakos - a dogshit team in a corrupt dogshit league.
They did you a favour Carlos my old son.
You will have no trouble getting another job.

Well let's face it.
That third one has passed through most of our minds

Re: Corberan Sacked
Would be too soon for CC here and a huge risk (though would have him over JM). Did excellently with Huddersfield though and will be interesting to see how he does at WBA.
Re: Corberan Sacked
I'm interested yeah, he'll need time, time we don't have. I think he'll get there though if all goes well with players adapting and board backing him.
