He's not Lambert and whilst he appears to be arrogant that may actually be a virtue. I hope he proves us all wrong.

Wow, slagging off a salute now - we really must be desperate to find fault.

FYI, the salute is Adebeyor's trademark goal celebration and he did it directly to Sherwood, no doubt to thank him for the support/belief and Sherwood (and Ramsey) merely responded back. There's nothing to see here.

1.  A bit of an unknown quantity.  Who knows he could be the next Mouriniho, whereas there is a known ceiling for Pulis and other established managers.
2.  More attacking/crazy football.
3.  Aggressive style may shock the players into keeping us up. 

Still gutted that we've missed another opportunity to do something more imaginative.

oh, another one.

4. He understands the pantomime of it all (see the coat throwing gif).  If he ever showed some humility then he could actually be likeable.

To answer the original question I can think of several positives, unfortunately they're all of the at least he's not type rather than than "true" positives such as experienced at managing at this level, record of turning around struggling teams etc.

1.He's not Lambert
2.He's not Warnock
3.He's not Pearce
4.He's not Redknapp
5.He's not Írvine
6.He's not Karsa
7.He's not Culverhouse
8.He's not MON
9.He's not DOL
10. He's not Pearson
11. He's not come with a letter of recommendataion from SAF.
12. err......... that's it.

Yes he is Arrogant, I like that as you don't get successful sportsmen that don't have an arrogance about them.

1, He will have an instant positive impact on results.

2, The strikers will enjoy the fact he likes them to get the ball early enough to have a chance.

3, The lazy buggers whilst not appreciating the initial dressing down, will understand when looking back it got them playing. Either that or they will be playing for another team.

He might turn out to be quite good.  We're never going to trouble the top 6 again under Lerner, but if Sherwood can make us comfortably mid-table, that'll have to do.  After keeping us up first of course.  Plus he dresses like John Gregory and seems to have a mate or two in the London press.

The salute thing is shite. But if Benteke scores a dozen goals between now and the end of the season, including the winner in the Cup Final, and Sherwood does the shite salute each time, I reckon I could live with it.

Christ. Whats so bad about a bloody salute? Maybe he has a sense of humour as well

Perhaps he also scratches his arse in a way that you dislike

I think he'll get us relegated this season and we'll be stuck with him for a couple of years in the championship. I'll get behind them and all that, but having watched a few of those Spurs games last season and his interviews afterwards, I honestly think it's the worst appointment we could have made. Worse than appointing warnock who is similarly a tactically inept gobshite but is at least an experienced one.

It's just a reflection of the mutliplication of hyphonated names over here ;)

Seriously they're talking about legislation to limit it to 2 family names, there are examples of 4 and 5 going around at the moment, plus 2 or 3 given names.  Birth certificates are now printed in A3 to accomodate it all.

If we're relegated this season it won't be Sherwood's fault.

No, that one will firmly lie at Randolph's door, especially if it transpires that Faulkner walked because he wasn't allowed to sack Lambert at the end of last summer.
