DeBoer isn't sending anything to Lou other then flowers and a box of chocolat

I don't see how Pete can have the balls to send his boss a message, when knowing this place is a revolving door for head coach's over the past decade.

By sending a message to his primary boss (Lou), he'd be sending a message to the boss of his boss (JVB) and if he wants to keep his job as our HC, I think Pete will just sit tight and go with the players that's been given to him.

He doesn't have the same track record as Lemaire to just walk up to Lou and say "Look, I need this certain type of player and I have no intention on utilising player x, y, z cause they don't fit my system".

Just can't see that happening.

What balls ? If Deboer didn't like Volch he would've sat him a lot more. That's the message he could've sent to LL and he didn't do it at all. 36 games played (+ 4 games suspensions).


Tallinder or Fayner look way more as the odd man out here.

Very much so. All indications from Pete is that he loves Volch. He never put him up in the box despite earning a seat up there many a night. Fayne looked the wrong way once banished for a week. Same with Larsson.

Lou alone has to give Volch his walking papers since no one else seems to want him gone.
