  1. Guardiola Klopp Howe Potter Conte Ten Hag Rodgers Moyes Frank Tuchel Vieira Hassenhutl Marsch Arteta Cooper Lampard Gerrard Left out Lage and Silva as I know fuckall about them. Not a big fan of Conte as a medium or long term solution. Certainly with a very good team, some key demanded additions he can move a team up that last (admittedly difficult) step, but the parameters under which he demands to operate mark him down in my book as a short-term option for an already well-positioned team. Maybe he's earned that right. Started following BvB during the @shley years so have seen the Tuchel story before and moved him down quite a bit more than most. Good at improving a sloppy, directionless side, but once the players understand the system, his micromanagement and demands for complete compliance squeeze the life out of the team so that the players resent him, make stupid mistakes and the owners hate the results. I'm still angry about some of the subs he made at BvB. BvB also = soft spot for Klopp, though his recent antics have really gotten on my tits.
  2. That's the kit man fired for forgetting to separate the colors from the whites.
  3. These cunts minted yet?
  4. Getting the cracked windshield on my car replaced tomorrow during their match. Infinitely better use of my time.
  5. that was definitely NOT hit by a Ukrainian missile.
  6. 40+ pages of cover song discussion. Have at it.
  7. Probably because they don't have to deal with materials sourcing, production design and tooling, realistic manufacturing timelines and a host of other issues that relate to producing thousands of consistent, identical shirts in a variety of sizes rather than a single pretty picture.
  8. Today's Fulham match is on ESPN+ over here. Hopefully will have a nice after work treat to enjoy.
  9. Ron apparently hasn't parsed that pigshit thick accent yet - Brucie's clearly said he does "no tactics." Ron: So, Steve, describe your tactical approach. Brucie: Neeew tactics Ron: Oh, you're into the latest developments. That's great. Brucie: Neeeeew. Neeeeew. Ron: Oh, "nous." That's French isn't it? Brucie: Neeeeeeeew tactics. Neeeeew!! Ron: I'll put down "tactical nous" - very Continental, Steve. Impressive.
  10. More than makes up for having to read through the Merson-a-thon. Well done!

    I'm definitely not mad that pic was chosen by the official club account to accompany the departure news.

    Zero hour contract at the warehouse incoming!
  13. Aye. That bastardized funeral dirge version of "When the Saints Go Matching In" that their fans sing ad nauseam is more than reason enough to despise them.

    Tick, tock, thumbheed.
  15. Notable lack of a direct denial that he is, indeed, a "tactically inept cabbage head." Seems he just took issue with people saying it out loud.
  16. Buying a cannon that big would have bankrupted the PIF.
  17. There's been several posts from folks who watch BvB a lot. Hate to quote myself, but can't be arsed to retype it.
  18. Indeed. Hell, I'll be thrilled if "we tried" now means that we actually did!
  19. I'm also someone who's followed BvB closely for several years now since we've been so shit. Favre was an incredibly frustrating manager who couldn't get it done with an amazingly talented roster. He micro-managed the offensive players into being afraid to shoot while leaving the defense in positions to give away stupid goals almost every match. His subs were too late and rarely helped. He also seemed almost in tears on the sideline when things went sideways once the pressure of under-achieving built. With this group of NUFC players and the expectations here? No way.
  20. This fucking fatberg still not fired?
  21. My son was in Kindergarten, my daughter still in preschool. He's now in his second year of uni, and she is a senior in high school.
  22. Not only do Leeds have TACTICS, they have FORRIN TACTICS! It's unjust, and prohibited by Brexit, not that the South American bastard will honour it.
