Western Sydney Wanderers Thread- Cosplay Ultras Edition

He is a great player, but to be fair, he’s been pretty average for them. I don’t blame Jurman though, from the sounds of things, the players don’t know what they’re doing in the systems that they’re playing in, they’re literally lost. The fox guys were talking about it on the pod the other day, they’ll move the ball forward but then they’re not sure what to do. It’s the same defensively, they don’t know whether to move forward as a line or whatever, it’s they’re like cats attempting to be herded at the moment.

Perhaps Jurman needs a strong leader next to him and he’ll do a fine job, but when he’s the man, it may not suit him.

This is better than any Netflix series. Fraud man comes out with more expletives defending his fraud ways

He is a fraud manager. Look at his win/loss record.

I really like the lad:

  • Played for Liverpool :white_check_mark:
  • Great entertainment value :white_check_mark:
  • Speaks nicely with a German accent :white_check_mark:
  • Good game in swearing :white_check_mark:
  • Dapper, eye-catching wardrobe :white_check_mark:
  • Bringing constant failure out west :white_check_mark:
  • Holding them hostage for longer than reasonable with clearly a fake tattoo gimmick :white_check_mark:

Based on the above, I can find no reason that any of you should have anything against the guy, with the understandable exception of the first point for you non-LFC fans.

There’s a definite trend of being sacked in December or first week of January.

I love that the pressure is getting to him. Hilariously he has started changing his coaching method plus the swearing and ranting. Shows he is at right at the point where he knows he’s fucked and there is no recovery. 18mths minimum until they are top 6 material.

Thanks Santa.

I picked that as well. In one breath he says it’s all lies / dogshit, unfounded rumours don’t warrant comment etc, yet he still saw fit to raise it in a team meeting yesterday and has apparently just started taking a more hands on approach to their training sessions.

Wonder if that’s come from Lederer. It must’ve crossed his mind this week WTF Babbel actually does if JP has been running training and then picking the team.

Correct. He wouldn’t have reacted like this if there wasn’t a big chunk of truth there.

Wilmering has done his acl, that’s 3 this year for them.

^^ I just went to their website to check the Wilmering presser, but all I found was Bossi poking the bear. :rofl:

Their forum is on the verge of putting a hit out.

Babbel: "On Wednesday morning the coach took aim at the reports, saying that if players cannot handle a tough coaching style they 'have no f*ing chance in Europe’"

Also Babbel: Sacked by Swiss Super League club Luzern in Jan’ 2018.

Looks like he doesn’t know how to make it in Europe as a coach either.

He looked a decent player so that’s a shame

If its true Sotirio is the one talking, the question has to be asked … what game of his did they have to kill in the first place?

Poor fucker.

That’s shit. He looked good from what I saw.

Yeh dont wanna see that happen to solid young players at all.

Morning routine: coffee, quick check of the online news, SFCU and then Sack Babbel thread on Wests forum and laugh til 1130.

Some of those wet nights watching a bog standard team lead by Farina looking bemused were the best of times.
