1. Chelsea won the Champions League under Di Matteo.
2. Barcelona won the Champions League under Enrique.
3. Brazil was so talented in 2002 just about any competent manager would have guided them to a World Cup
4. Zidane wasn't a brilliant tactician, just knew how to manage ego's, when he guided RM to the Champions League
5. Argentina won the World Cup in 1986 because of Maradona, nobody talks about Bilardo.

There are countless more examples.
Theres also countless times managers have won things due to coaching, set ups, tactics, part of management is creating an enviroment where players can flourish.

If this was the case, England should have won atleast 3 world cups and 3 Euros by now....
 
The way I took Postecoglou's statement was that coaches don't place much value on assist figures when evaluating players. That sounds reasonable, but it also is just stating the obvious. It's not an either/or thing. Assists aren't going away because of one off the cuff remark at a press conference.

I bet Ange would have loved 2 or 3
( or 4 ) assists from our players this evening; it would have been game-changing IMO.

But obviously it’s up to him at the end of the day .
 
Werner could be the worst striker I've seen since Rasiak. Bringing him on was a terrible decision. We may as well have played with 10 men.

The prick makes Janssen look like R9
The worst decision was having him on the bench - given the starting XI we obviously had no desire to win this game so why the fuck have Werner on the bench at the expense of Moore or a youth player - Ange is finished as far as I am concerned has absolutely zero regard for the club or its fan base
 
Or... maybe... had Ange not have left our best three players on the bench until midway through the second half, we'd have won.

Face it. Our clown of a manager fucked up and picked the wrong team and as a result we lost.

I'm utterly sick of the sight of him. It's Emperor's New Clothes territory now. He's a shit manager and I can't wait until he's sacked and returns to obscurity where he belongs.

Maybe

Maybe they start the game and with only 3 days between games they don’t look as fresh as they did in the second half and they also play 90 min and one of them picks up a knock before AZ
 
Completely outplayed City second half. Some players clearly need some rest like Spence. Moore’s only young so may also be struggling with some soreness hence why Werner got a go. Not that hard to understand.

And they completely outplayed us first half and should have been 4 nil up.

Just like Ipswich when we should have even 3 nil down in the first 10 minutes.

When we win under Ange it’s always in spite of him. We get lucky the opposition miss their chances. Our default under Ange is just to lose.

He never coaches a win in a tough tight game.

I honestly can’t wait.

Deluded people thinking we will win the Europa. We will get absolutely battered by a decent team in the next round or two.

Once we are out of Europe hopefully he’ll be sacked immediately. Will probably be a contract clause so Levy can do it on the cheap.


I can’t even contemplate him getting a third season. It will be a disaster. He’ll definitely be sacked by October if he is but we will have wasted yet another season.

I’m tired. We can’t keep flushing seasons down the toilet under this fraud. Life’s too short.

He needs to be sacked summer latest and we need to employ a proper manager.
