Major Isewater Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Fulham's Serb coach is under pressure after spending 100 million on players and the Cottagers finding themselves at the foot of the Prem with an horrendous defensive record . Hypothetically who would want him at Ashton Gate if LJ decided to leave ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bristolcity Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 He would be the ideal appointment for OTIB ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Yes, would be a very good appointment if we were looking for a new manager. Would be a very ambitious appointment though, and so because of that is exactly the sort of one we wouldn't make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Isn't the standard response here 'No Championship experience'. Which clearly means there are very few potential appointments, given any manager we get has to have championship experience to appease the few?

DownendRed97 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Would be the type of appointment that would be a clear statement of intent that we’re serious about getting out of this league....so I can’t see that ever happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin_unreliant Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Plus there is no vacancy at AG and he's still the Fulham manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Would have a lot to recommend him- 2 promotions and a playoff campaign, plays 4-3-3, excellent football. On the flipside, it seemed to take his Fulham about 4-5 months to get going which isn't ideal- but when they do... That said, I'm not in the LJ out camp at this stage, but yeah he would be an impressive appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Red Hat Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 I believe any appointment would need to buy fully into the academy/pathway scenario. I don't believe Jokanovic would be that person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Look how many changes he has made to his premier league team. People say LJ uses a tombola.... Obviously a good manager at this level but usually on sides with money and talent. A good % of the teams he promoted have current premier league players. City do not and often will not have that type of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true about money and talent, but this overlooks his early work at Fulham when he kept them up narrowly- took him a while to implement too. He's promoted 2 sides, Watford didn't have PL players or many of them, but did have players from their boards tieup with Udinese and Granada. @billywedlock Too many changes in the summer too I feel, 14 new players- lost loanees, obvious he had to make changes but chopping and changing. Think he's better in some ways than LJ tactically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact your brain saw exactly what it wanted to see . It took the easy route , the one where the responses are already programmed. Ask yourself this question, who's in control ? You or your brain ?

That’s probably the least likely of all things he will know. From playing us a few times he will know our squad well, formation, types of players etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed...and so many fans fail to realise, except or simply understand what we are doing as a Club. I would actually appreciate SL or LJ doing a comprehensive interview on tape actually reiterating the clubs philosophy. Plus...I think it would help LJ with the fan base if he actually showed more emotion when interviewed. Whether it's a win or a loss...it's exactly the same emotion. whilst I appreciate a more level headed approach...and it's respected amongst his peers, when it comes to an emotional fan base, they often require an emotional response. This is why Cotts and Warnock do well with football fans...they are tuned in to how many feel. They may not be right...but it does help, whether you agree with it or not. It's the same reason why much of the population will watch all the soaps, Jeremy Kyle, Love Island and such bullshit...it satisfies certain parts of the masses. Sad as it is...TV viewing figures don't lie. Same with football. From our own Website...
