In less than 12 months, a Europa League Final and Champions League qualification bringing significant and much-needed funds into the Club.
We won a domestic trophy, something his predecessor failed to do in a more favorable situation.
While these guys took the bins out the back AyeA dud that took us to a EL final and won the SC in his first season?
Shmoookin a pancakeHow's your Dutch?
Yet posters were on here saying “he’s got Celtics number” because we managed a win in extra time after scoring a late equaliser.And won 1 old firm and 0 old firms in 90 minutes. And the points swing last season. Also pumped 3 nil and 4 nil against them lot because he never learned. If it wasnt for the european run. He wouldnt be here
Walter’s park the bus in 2008 is miles away from what Gio serves up. We were an organised team under Walter and everyone knew their job. Now not so much.
Can't listen to him, I take no joy from thisToo respectful, out his depth, refusal to admit mistakes, talking in riddles, talking about the league?? Gone as far as I’m concerned.
Honest question. Under Gio do you think we have improved as a team?
All I see is regression in every department. We don’t even look fit anymore while previously we were being accused of doping!
They were excused because he won titles. Gio won’tWe also got a good few hammerings at home under Walter second time around as well. It wasn't always a defensive master class in the CL.

How the f*** does he motivate a dressing room?
Tell that to three quarters of the posters here, they were practically pulling their hair out at the thought that McGregor would play for us again.It was, until it was blatantly obvious that we were getting turned over. Wouldn't say McGregor had to make any outstanding saves but he kept the score line down. Easy to say that's his job but Gio dropped him for McLauglin and has had to change it up as its clear McGregor is the better option.
He's also played Tillman on the right of midfield and continued with Kent when it's been quite obvious he needs time out of the team.
A matter of time until he's gone, in my opinion.
I’m not sure how he motivates a shite out of his own arse tbh mateHow the f*** does he motivate a dressing room?
How do you know they are our supporters tho BigD plenty of infiltration on this site .It's beyond dislike. The way some of our support talk about our own, not just the manager, but players and board members, is the stuff you'd expect from that lot talking about us. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and constructive criticism should always be encouraged, but a lot of what we see is pure vitriol. Sad to see tbh.
The guy is chronic. Can’t believe he’s still in a job.
Amen palAnd a 12 point swing in the league that is our bread and butter every season and an enormous regression in the current squad. How long do we dine out on this EL final?
That's the spirit.I want him to do well, I want the team to succeed.
I have always wanted our managers to do well and believed in them all, to a point of course.
Tonight I saw what looked like our manager applauding our opponents scoring a penalty against us.
A far as I was sunk into my chair at the pounding we were taking, that sunk me further into my chair.
Then I turned our match off and started watching Ajax v Napoli.
I don't know if Gio is going to realise, his team selections are not getting the best out of our players.

He was the manager , not Gerrard .He didn’t….it was Gerrard’s team and the team spirit he installed that did
We’ve gone backwards since Gio and his pals arrived, he’s got no clue what he’s doing mate
Yessss .Tell that to three quarters of the posters here, they were practically pulling their hair out at the thought that McGregor would play for us again.
McLaughlin more than deserves the jersey I believe was the overall sentiment. Those of us who suggested McGregor was our best goalkeeper were shot down.
Christ almighty, the team wasn’t his and the team in Europe managed itself on the park with Gerrard standards and levelsHe was the manager , not Gerrard .
Just pointing out facts.
Spot onThey were excused because he won titles. Gio won’t
Eh but after the 4-0 we got on top of them .And won 1 old firm and 0 old firms in 90 minutes. And the points swing last season. Also pumped 3 nil and 4 nil against them lot because he never learned. If it wasnt for the european run. He wouldnt be here
Honestly bud just post your CV and we can all chuckleChrist almighty, the team wasn’t his and the team in Europe managed itself on the park with Gerrard standards and levels
Gio’s a dud, simple
Gerrard got absolutely nowhere near the champions league, and beat Ange in zero competitions. God he only beat Neil fucking Lennon in one!Where were we in the league when Gerrard left?
Oh and it was Gerrard’s team that had the success you mention, his fitness levels, his team spirit. Compare that to a pre-season and ongoing training/coaching from GVB and his mates……we’re now rudderless, unfit in comparison, cannot play a pressing game
Are we better or worse under the current management? I think you know the answer
He seems to have coached every ounce of fitness and fight out of those same players. He’s had 1 pre season with an incredibly fit group of players and now they look incredibly unfitHe was the manager , not Gerrard .
Just pointing out facts.
I think it's fair enough that McGregor was criticised, but to replace him with our backup keeper was a mistake.Tell that to three quarters of the posters here, they were practically pulling their hair out at the thought that McGregor would play for us again.

Given it was backed-up a short time after with CL qualification, I'd probably give him more time than the beginning of October. That would seem reasonable.

How do you think the actual football world views our CL table?But that's not true. I'll wager the actual football world sees things differently to a message-board.
I would’ve set us up 4-3-3 Matondo Kent wide Alfie dropping in those two running in behind their fullbacks. It’s were every single side has got joy against them by not sitting back.
I bet you Liverpool we’re delighted we sat in with no pace it was a easy game for them defensively.
Fulham went after them and got joy Brighton Newcastle Man Utd all we sat in I thought it was the wrong move and it’s defeatist the way we set up zero threat at all.
Pace mate to play without it was mental but Gio has previous for this Tillman on the right fml now that’s mentalSee where you’re coming from but playing 4 at the back against that front 4 of liverpool is suicide imo. Many times tonight our extra man in defense saved us?
Matondo done well when he came on but has been terrible (hearts aside) all season (when we’ve seen him) and couldn’t even get in the squad against dundee united. Sorry but to say he should of started tonight is mental.
Strange perception for a bear.Gerrard got absolutely nowhere near the champions league, and beat Ange in zero competitions. God he only beat Neil fucking Lennon in one!
How do you think the actual football world views our CL table?
It's not that though. It's what we've been watching since he came to the club and the fact we know it isn't going to change.Lot of hysteria on here, as usual after a defeat. To call for our manage’s head after a 2-0 defeat at probably the toughest venue in club football is next level insane.
im intrigued to know what the expected perception for a “bear” should be.Strange perception for a bear.
Don't you think?
To an extent. Gerrards team were all over the place when GVB came in though tooHe didn’t….it was Gerrard’s team and the team spirit he installed that did

Haven't listened to him so you have me at a disadvantage.Likely in the same way that Klopp summed it up.

Only if you have legs in the middle of the park.It was tactically correct to start with 3 at the back
