Laudrups Last Tango in Paris on 08:27 - Feb 6 with 517 views | Swanfan1 | . . . Huw disappointed with comments about Laudrup Swansea City Chairman Huw Jenkins believes it’s vital everyone gets behind new Head Coach Garry Monk and moves on quickly from Michael Laudrup’s departure. “Everyone needs to move on; get behind us and focus on Saturday’s game,’’ declared Jenkins. “The fact is, Michael’s time with us has come to an end. But I have found some of the things being said about him today hard to stomach. Much of it has been extremely unsavoury and unnecessary. “Too many people have been trying to play the blame game and unearth disrespectful reasons behind his departure. “We were quite open and honest in our official statement, because that’s the way we are as a club. Since then we have tried to keep our own counsel on the matter because we have nothing bad to say about Michael. “He deserves respect for what he has done in the game and you couldn’t meet a more genuine and honest person. “It’s time to move on.’’ | |

Laudrups Last Tango in Paris on 16:54 - Feb 5 by JJJack | My favourite idea from this whole debacle and by a mile the most ludicrous suggestion, and to be fair to you, you aren't the only one to say it BUT, this idea that Monk stirred everything up single-handedly in order to appoint himself Manager. Quite simply I have never heard anything so ridiculous in my life. on this basis, Monk has single-handedly been responsible for: * 7 Prem wins in 33 games * Ineffective fitness methods, physio and nutrition * A split between the Spaniards and the rest of the players * Signing Vazquez, Schecter, Emnes, Ngog etc * Not starting Bony at the start of the season in many games * An apparent shambles of a mid-season break to Dubai * Laudrup swanning off to Paris and giving the players 2 days off in the middle of a daunting fixture list with a Derby coming up * Laudrup clearly being demotivated * Players wanting more discipline then going off on the piss anyway * A total breakdown in our style of play and ability to create changes and especially our continued slow starts. * Appointing himself as Acting Manager Seriously , have a word with youself!! |
The truth is much more boring. ML didn't deliver expected results. So he was fireable. Westham humiliation provided the emotional fuel to get it done. The rest is spin and speculation. | | | |
