The relationship with the two Italians will be established depending on the quality of the start to their season. If they play poorly, but are started game in and game out, then Herdman will be undermined. How will JH as a manager respond to poor play or poor attitudes? That will be is test.

Ottawafan Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Herdman's comments about the Bradley's is more damaging than his 36 year comments.

Quote "Two big personalities who were father and son," said Herdman, adding that the family ties made for "a bit of a recipe for disaster" when it came to trust in the locker room Nothing wrong with that....as it's actual factual.

Incompetent management at the top is a key tenet. But seriously, I think Herdman is going to be exposed at TFC. It’s already been a ridiculous tenure in the fact he’s been manager since October and hasn’t managed a match. He’s clearly trying the same “woe is us” Ted Lasso belief approach but it’s not sustainable for any team he’s managed to date. He was a good manager for Canada in the timeframe he was there but success was inevitable with the squad we have. Much more to do with our team more than doubling their talent from the previous cycle. Yet he still wanted to cry to the media that those same players weren’t good enough any time he got scared.

Ignoring that issue would be a bigger fail, it needs to be mentioned and used as an example of what you want to move away from. Saying the Bradley show was amateurish is being kind. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got his faults, but he's a bright man and good leader. I just don't know him enough to say if he learns from his mistakes or if the obvious ego gets in the way. I feel Herdman will play the management and leader role and let his crew do the actual strategic on-field coaching. I'm confident this part will work. The part I'm more concerned about is the relationship between Herdman and the management above him. I feel egos and politics might become an issue. They just need to keep it far from the team. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Diego Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I interpreted those comments as a way to wipe the slate clean since both Bradleys are gone. Everyone knows TFC were a shit show, so why not blame the two guys who aren't here anymore and give everyone a fresh start. It may even be true! h coach, johnyb, Club Linesman and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be right and hopefully you are. It’s a pretty big risk by Manning & co. but they clearly don’t have many ideas so this is obviously not the worst scenario. He definitely had his moments with Canada. johnyb and costarg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
