often he doesnt realise that when he opens his mouth, he makes himself look an even bigger buffon and even more clueless.
that comment about the players fitness ffs.....
If Jones and Bruce genuinely care about this club they need to demand a half decent but realistic transfer kitty.
we got sky money last year.
if ashley cant pledge around £30m, they both need to tell him that they cant do their jobs and resign.
Bruce doesnt need the hastle or the money.
Jones will walk into another job with his decent reputation.
they need to force his hand.
still, whats the point anyway...
people say southgate got us to a semi final, semi final then a final in the last 3 tournaments.
but look at who he to play.
on these 3 occasionas, as soon as he has met a decent team, he's had no answers.
just dont think southgate has developed much in terms of "in-game management" since croatia in 2018.
also i really think we need to stop this "brave/gallant loser" outlook in out sportsmen/women.
we've had a world cup and a euros where we've missed the big boys and had a real chance of winning both - moreso these euros as france were on a different level to us in 2018.
i just thought 3 years would have been long enough. he hasnt change his outlook much since 2018, i wonder if he will now.
he's come out and taken the blame for the penalties but imo its the 75 minutes before that he needs anaylising and apologising for.
people saying they're optimistic for the future?
we have a great squad but are stuck with a manager who hasnt developed.
just exactly a re-run of 2018 croatia - didnt/wouldnt make proactive changes then or now.
great man-manager, i admit , but shockingly overcautious in-game management.
