Whilst we have a similar sized stadium,we are as a club somewhat smaller than Leverkusen and with bit less publicity and expectation and so forth,also given the fact that he will have learnt a lot in his first stint in management and the tools he will have to do a job here he could do well.

He looks the part,a cross between Jimmy Nail and Tony Adams makes him appear visually at least as somebody not to be donald ducked with..

He could score a goal or two so perhaps he will expect at least one our centre backs to play like he did and get forward..

If he can get to galvanise a real team spirit and shows he can be tactically astute and so forth then that will see us go a long wayl,I am fully behind him and wish him well..

Thirty-seven points from the first 15 games of the season made Leverkusen serious candidates to challenge Bayern for the title. A first trophy since the 1993 DFB Cup seemed to be in the offing with Leverkusen also succeeding in surviving the winter both in the Champions League and the DFB Cup. It proved to be a false dawn, as they went on to lose 12 of their next 17 games.

If Hyppia follows that at the Amex we will be in top 2 at Xmas and end up in 6th place in May, ready for the play off lottery. Nzuzi Toko looks like his type of player.

Does anyone have a list of players Leverkusen released? It looks as though we will play a similar style as last season so more a case of evolution rather than revolution. Be interesting to see the first couple of signings. He alsi appears a manager keen to blood youngsters.

He sounds very similar to Garcia. Quite negative, quiet. Unassuming. Bayer fans were frustrated he showed no passion when they were behind.

Apparently he makes Kimi Räikkönen look like the life and soul :wink:

The photos are going to be fun anyway. Hope somebody is out buying Tony Bloom a stepladder.

A foreign one who doesn't know the Championship, doesn't know what it takes to get a team promoted, and doesn't have the passion needed to win the playoffs.
You have written a macro that types that, right?

Is he a mod or a rocker?
