Another brain dead clueless clueless prick goes on ignore.

And all you are doing is making me hate that fat Aussie prick even more for creating fans like you.

Others, like me, warned our squad was dangerously thin on quality and exposed to another injury crisis.
If there is anything "bad" about us winning the EL, it is that it gave the board/management a reason to say that our squad is just fine. We just have to look what Utd did. Brought in several players, are better than last year but still a quite bad season. Oh how wrong the Holy Trinity of Vinai, Lange, Paratice were...
 
I don’t care. I like Australia. I have family living there. It’s nice. You invest shit loads in sport and have a lot of open space and nice weather.

Doesn’t mean you and your mate don’t reek of insecurity in this thread bragging about how good Australia is at cricket and swimming. Like any Brit gives a fuck mate. Crickets boring as fuck and I watch swimming at the olympics and never again.
You should broaden your sporting horizons.
I mean basketball is good.
And the GB basketball team is unreal.

For the record we invest less than the UK in sport.
We’re just not fat lazy bludgers sitting on a couch watching tele whinging about Ange and Spurs!

Go outside and have a walk 👍
 
Seriously I'm not an Angeboi, I'm full aware of his faults and its a shame as I think he could be a great manager if he had better assistants that he was open to listening to. any coaching ability whatsoever or the sense to realise that he needed an elite team around him to compensate for the lack of it and allow him to concentrate solely on the motivational speeches and being more of a chilled out entertainer...
Rectified for you.

BUT

How can Thomas Frank being defended for playing shit that would still be shit in my local league that makes league 2 look good. He utterly destroyed the confidence of the players with his contempt for them. Given a platform to build, he took a dump on it.

Worst manager I have seen anywhere, ever, and I'm usually sympathetic to most managers as I believe they do their best. Not this guy.
On a serious note in response.

I'd argue that this began the two seasons prior to Frank.

Even in Ange's first season the technical quality fell off a cliff the second half of the season, players couldn't even do the basics, it was dreadful stuff which then lead onto the dramatic slide towards the drop zone last season.

Frank was not given a platform to build on at all. He was however, nowhere near up to the task of rectifying the shambles that he took over.

Both Ange and Frank were abysmal choices to manage this club, and I say that as someone who was initially optimistic that Frank would at least get us organised and achieving the minimum expectations.

I couldn’t give a fuck. I’m not in to those sports and nor are most Brits. Please don’t come on an English football forum and tell British people what sports they should care about.

No you don’t, per capita you spend a lot more on high performance and participation sport. A lot more on the sports you mentioned which are all heavily biased to the geography and climate.

The UK does pretty well at sport, mostly at a variety of ones I couldn’t care less about because we suddenly funded them well. Big fucking woop.
 
Couldn't beat Bodø/Glimt though, who Ange beat both home and away last year.

Couldn't beat Man Utd either, who Ange beat 4 times in all competitions last season.

Yeah it’s almost like United signed lots of good players, sacked their coach and have shot up the table this season, dramatically improving.

Congrats on beating Bodo. The big Ange brag is back again. A team who are wildly inconsistent based on pitch and weather who can lose to utter shite or beat top sides, truly a barometer of real quality.
