There's a touch of the Ian Holloways about him. The F1 analogy was well recieved and he seems to be dreaming up a different one each week to get some coverage at Sky sports HQ who no doubt lap all of this shit up.

I'd agree that he is coming across well at the minute but "breath of fresh air" turns to "bellend" quite quickly.

Wagner-esque.

Think he said something like: yes, Brighton deserve to be promoted... but we deserve it too.

He definitely said 'we are better than them'.

If you understood Portuguese you would compare him to Big Sam.
Going to be tough to beat. Not exactly likeable.

He reminds me of a greasy kebab shop owner, and so sly like a demons eye. That raincoat makes him look like he’s wandered into the technical area whilst on a day trip with the rest of his ‘special’ day release group.

Let’s see how ‘quirky’ he is after we hammer them 4-0 next week...

Less custard tart more broken heart.

He comes to us at the turning of the tide.

Some albion employees speak very highly of him. Apparently after our playoff defeat to them he handled himself really well. Polite, friendly and gracious. I remember when he got the job that some senior people at the club offered him their congrats.

Also at sheff wed, despite being pilloried by the local media, he was still very gracious to them. Attending press/club events and being able to distinguish between the individuals and their jobs.

It may be that he is a good coach, it may be that he is a good motivator, but what he has done at swansea is seemingly made the players happy and enjoying their football.
