Will be a great manager. 

Had high standards that the club wouldn't match. Huge wasted opportunity.

Great manager? Really? So like Brian Clough, SIr Alex Ferguson, Pep Guardiola, Carlo Ancelotti. 

I think his next job after the Sweden stint will determine where his career goes. Depends which league he managing and which club

Highly likely. 

JDT is of far higher calibre than Eustace in my opinion. The players didn’t like his high standards. Eustace is deemed a better man manager - I just think the players get an easier ride.

I don't agree there. I think Eustace demands high standards and I think someone who sit near the dugout against Stockport give us a first hand account what's he is really like on the coaching staff

By high standards I think Trinidad Rover means that Tomasson was tougher on the players by working them on the training ground to try and get them used to how he wanted them to play. I have heard that it wasn't uncommon for the players to go two weeks without a day off such was Tomasson's desire. One of the first things Eustace did was tell the players that there would be no more Sunday training. In any workplace that would go down well. Different managers with different ideas and philosophies, that's all.

I didn't read his comment as a criticism of Eustace but for some reason you have sprung to his defence.

Easier ride with Eustace then JDT which he said. I think Eustace demands high standards but has a different way to do it. Both wanted the best but different ways of doing it. 

Yes JDT always had them in on Sunday after a Saturday game.

Not being forced to work on Sunday's is an easier ride. Nobody has questioned the standards of Eustace - in your eagerness to defend him you are reading something into it that isn't there.

I really liked JDT for a number of reasons and I also think Eustace is a good manager. At any normal functioning club, I think both would be more than capable of delivering a promotion but this is Venky’s Blackburn Rovers.
