Being half Swiss I heard this this morning on the Swiss Internet radio, they mentioned a lot about Liverpool and Leverkusen, but not very much about his time at the Albion. It was kind of brushed aside as if to say, it just didn't work out move on. FC Zürich go through managers like I do a bag of Haribo unless SH can get them into the top three he'll be gone again !!

Good for him. He should have learnt a lot from his experience with us.

Just reading up on the FCZ forum, they are happy to have him but have reservations about his tactical ability, the fans aren't quite as enthusiastic as the media. In fact one of the fans on the forum invested 3 hours of time in researching Hyypia on NSC. Needless to say the threads weren't a glowing report. http://www.fczforum.ch/forum/topic16994-3806.html

Haha, he depresses me so much.
Absolutely USELESS. What a shower of sh1te he was.
He only did one good thing which was teaching Dunk how to score.

There are many reasons for his abject failure here, and this wouldn't be the primary one, but for me whenever he spoke he sounded like the most downbeat, morose, unenthusiastic, uninspiring character imaginable. A total charisma-free zone. A malignant, dark, swirling vortex that drained all energy and life from the immediate surrounding area. It was essentially like having Eeyore as manager.

Hey... I like Eeyore, in all seriousness though.. Yeah he was useless here but good luck to him, hope it works out.

2 lessons I'm sure he learnt,
1. Don't let Burke choose/buy your players
2. See above.

He WAS exceedingly dull.
I'd actually stopped watching anything Hyypia related on player as I could no longer put myself through it.
How anyone can sit opposite him for an hour in an interview and want to employ him is beyond me.
Not withstanding the fact that he was utterly clueless and completely out of his depth.
Thank **** he had the morale courage and self awareness to just walk away. Otherwise we'd be playing Gillingham or Scunthorpe this weekend.

A truly truly decent and honorable man who waived his right to compensation and did the best he could under limited circumstances. David Burke and his spreadsheet anyone? Selling Ulloa right before the season without a replacement identified? He did get us Tex and he wanted to walk away sooner BUT THE CLUB WANTED HIM TO STAY.
That said he was out of his depth, Jones and Hughton just about got us out the shit.
But Sami I do wish you well.

I would wager £100 that they were NOT Sami signings but Burkes.

He could of stayed until he got a big pay off, Yes it went horribly wrong for him with us but hopefully he has learnt from his mistakes and not all his own doing the-club didn't help, so good luck to him.
