I don't think he's a good football manager. But I don't think he's actually aware of that or trying to con anyone.
That in in of itself takes a level of talent I doubt he has.
Even if he is aware and is blagging it I don’t hate the guy for that . I wanted it to work but it clearly hasn’t , he has been promoted beyond his ability on a salary beyond his wildest dreams . Who on here wouldn’t take the money and blag it at nearly 60 years of age having never been a big earner before. I know plenty of people who would and a couple who have .
Good luck to him that Levy was stupid enough to hire him and pay him, but enough is enough FFS . Just put him down humanely , although I have no idea who replaces him right now
 
Ipswich was identical. Delap was looking for the space where Porro shouldve been and got in behind, decent shot good save. 2 mins later the same thing, decent shot, just missed the far post.

proves we learnt absolutely nothing from the Villa shitshow.

not that we shouldve had to learn anything. Away to a pl team in the cup? Keep it tight for the first 15 at least.

we can hardly keep it tight for 15 seconds
Easiest team outside the bottom three in the league to play against.
Zero defensive acumen in the entire team.
 
WaKe up every day thinking today is the day Levy cops on and gets rid of this dud, but no it never happens. You got to wonder what it is going to take. I would genuinely take big sam over him at this stage, well maybe not, but would take Benitez or even harry redknapp until end of season.

I'd absolutely take Fat Sam over him, which is possibly the saddest comment I've ever made.

Last answer really interesting

Asked if the players lacked clarity on the game plan to execute it.

Answer: Nobody lacks clarity, if anything people have said it's too transparent. You need belief and conviction to play this way and it's really challenging...

Sounded a bit to me like some of the players maybe decided they didn't like or want to follow the game plan.

Must be difficult to keep playing a certain way when you are getting pumped every week and there are only signs of going backwards
 
There are similarities. Over promoted, massive sense of self importance, mostly disliked or ignored, speaks total nonsence, always got an excuse. I look forward to the day Postecoglou is wearing that Ostrich outfit when he's finally sacked.

The notable thing I took from his presser earlier, just caught up with it, was that the journos obviously had wind of Maddison whispering to Sonny last night about “always the same play “ because one journo asked Ange “Do you have any concerns that this group is either doubting the game plan or lacking clarity over it?”

I can’t see that question being asked for any other reason and I got the impression Ange wasn’t overly happy about it being asked. His answer dealt with the question of clarity and nothing said about anyone doubting the game plan. Not that I expected him to address that question.

Maybe I’m reading more into it but don’t think so.
 
Recognising Wenger was a good coach is hardly praising him, it’s just common sense ffs. You don’t have to like the man, I’m still never gonna compare a premier league winning coach to Ange fucking Posteclueless. It’s just dumb.
that moron is as dumb as a rock.

hes acting like its heresy to say that Wenger was better than, er, Christian Gross. h'e must be about 10.

can you imagine how many trophies we'd have won from mid 1990's onwards if wed had David Dein making decisions rather than know nothing SurAllan?

theres a reason why ive got that twat on ignore and every now and then I get curious to see what other inanities he comes out with. And then keep him on ignore
 
I wonder if there is somethng in contract saying must get euro football each season
and that is the reason Levy has not sacked him yet, if we don't get euro football he has to go without or with reduced payoff

that makes sences why Levy hasn't sacked him yet
