Clement watch......

[topbanana36]

Seems like a good move to me...cant see a prem club making him number 1 but cut his managerial teeth in the championship..... Then get a prem club aka poyet.....

Time will tell exciting eh!

 

[tiotom92]

Hoped Real would lose as they may have sacked the management team after winning no major trophies (Copa del Rey aside) and Clement could then have been free to join us...

But i suppose the other side to the coin is that he may now be happy to leave after helping Real win the big one!

I was really disappointed in him tonight, not once in over 2 hours did I see him holding up a Brighton flag, poor show paul

 

[Dan Aitch]

But can he speak English?

 

[MillitantSeagull]

Bale 2-1

Did anyone see Paul jump up when he scored, check his right hand out, an easy jet ticket, could only see GTW, not sure what that means

Gatwick is LGW

 

[shaolinpunk]

I wonder if he'd bring his Brighton-born colleague with him

 

[DNB_Seagull]

Blackburn were relegated that season.

Good enough for Real Madrid and PSG but not... Brighton?

 

[mona]

Would be a big mistake. To get out of the championship you need somebody more pragmatic I'm afraid.

Hes a coach not the manager or head coach as they like to call it these days. Hes the guy who takes the training sessions. The pressure is not on him when things go wrong, how does anyone here know he will be a good ma nager

Good point. Can he manage individual egos, can he motivate, can he coach/improve less gifted players, can he relate to the fans, how would he react to three or four defeats on the trot, has he got a plan A, B, C and D, is he committed to developing youngsters, how well does he know the Championship, how will he take to Blackburn on a freezing Tuesday night in February, etc etc etc.

 

[Surf's Up]

and most crucially, can he work within the restrictive and unfair framework of FFP?

 

[Pavilionaire]

Paul Clement I don't think so. Real Madrid to Brighton highly unlikely.

What, like Karanka, Real to Boro?

For gods sake, do you not read anything before forming an opinion?......he had the assistant job at Blackburn, he was born and raised here, the weather is hardly a surprise to him, he has coached young developing players, he has also coached those prima Donna egos at the highest level......

Again as a coach, I dont remember any Blackburn fans calling for Clements head it was only Keens.

So he doesn't deserve a chance? Why do you think he will fail?

um, he was at blackburn ........

Sunday Supplement extolling his virtues.

 

[Seagull97]

Class act get him in.

 

[Steve.S]

Well this week could be interesting for you, it may be a week that shows you know nothing about football.

 

[BensGrandad]

Son told me that Fatboy Slim said on TV , I didnt see the programme, that it was a done deal for Clements, perhaps he knows more than most.
