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

Exactly.
Not comparing him to the man himself, but, Brian Clough was as arrogant as they came.

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.



It's a joke. Get a life 8)
I have a life already thanks, a very nice one !
Unfortunately for you I wasn't commenting on your hilarious pictorial banter but the prior comments 8)

Apologies to you CT :)

Spurs mate of mine reckons Sherwood will be good. Says he gives him a lot of credit for work he did with the youth team too.

Given where we are I would prefer somebody with more experience but as the board were slow to react our choices were limited.

Welcome and good luck Mr Sherwood.

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

Which means he'd still be our manager in the Championship. Imagine that.

You can't write the bloke off until he's given you proof to do so.

the positive for me is that we waited till now to sack him

let me explain, if he had of gone earlier when Pulis was available or when Alardyce was under pressure we might have ended up with one of those two anti football  munters,

I don't know how I would have coped to see Aston Villa manager- Tony Pulis

I've seen enough of Sherwood to write him off. I hope he does well enough to keep us up, I don't think he will, but hope he does obviously. But I think long term we will struggle with him. The only positive people can see is that he 'doesn't take any shit'. That's not a recipe for success, thats not the defining quality of any good managers. This is just as clueless as appointing Mcleish.

For about the billionth time...what Lerner needs is a football man or two on the board, other clubs do, which is why they wouldn't have made this appointment, and certainly not at this time.

Here's another moan. What happened to handling ourselves with a little bit of class? Fox courting Sherwood at games, Krulak speaking out against Lambert, feels like a shabby way to carry on.

1. Sherwood had a good record in his short time at Spurs. The kind of record that'd keep us up.
2. We can now move on from Lambert.
3. Five wins from thirteen may be enough to keep us up. And isn't exceptional form.

1. His record, no matter how brief, is decent.
2. He's confident, arrogant, passionate....good, it's about time we started showing some of that as a club, let alone a team.
3. He seemingly plays decent attacking football without being afraid to have a go. Works well with the kids and won't be afraid to throw them in.

1. He'll kick some lazy, underperforming arses.
2. He knows what a net looks like.
3. "So this is Old Trafford? So fucking what."

1. I can understand what he's saying.
2. The players will as well.
3. If its OK with Paul Merson, its OK with me.

1. He's not Neil Lennon.
2. He will hopefully keep us up.
3. If he does number 2. Lerner will hopefully find a buyer who will invest in not only our "illustrious club" but also a new manager!
