That Louie Donowa goal Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 I am not slating Cotterill at all as I love the bloke never thought I would see a league title in my life time plus a cup win, but today LJ made good subs today and shows what a clever young manager we have. That took guts to take off 2 of most creative players on paper anyway, a few raised eyebrows at the time but the proof was in the pudding 3 points against relegation rivals feeling proud.

Fiale Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 If we had lost today those substitutions would have seen him getting absolutely roasted - took balls, and it seems "little" Johnson has bigger balls than people would like to give him credit for.

Surely someone must have spotted Mr Lansdowne heading for the dressing room just before half time with a piece of paper with his `preferred` team changes written on it? No? Oh well, perhaps he does have the cojones to make crucial decisions himself then which will certainly annoy a few on here. If he`d got it wrong they`d have all been out with their hammers and nails.

And Its Smith Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 When this sort of brave decision pays off then it can really give the players the belief that the manager knows what he is doing. It's the sort of single event that can really mean the players buy in to everything the manager says.......at least until he makes a massive cock up. Massive game next week. Thank goodness there is a stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider-manc Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 I said after the Wolves game that although it didn't come off I was glad that Lj at least tried something different to get us back in the game with a double substitution. It very nearly did get us something. I've seen 3 away games under Johnson and all of them we have shown improvement in the second half. To me a sign of a good manager is knowing when it isn't going well, admitting it and changing it. Hopefully he will start getting it right from KO soon though!!!

Esmond Million's Bung Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 One thing is for sure LJ has proved that he does possess a large pair, when it comes to substitutions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
