I don’t get the hate for Lampard like, it’s weird, he’s done relatively well in his only two jobs and now all of a sudden he’s another Bruce? ‘Kin hell [emoji38]


I just don’t like how he was being praised for giving their youth a chance when in reality it was down to their embargo, then first sign of a budget the likes of Tomori & Abraham were dumped.

This....he seems to have gotten a great reputation for giving youth a chance, when in reality he didn't actually have any other choice.

Find it bizarre any manager would go on holiday during an international break.

 

Aye, senior players may not be around, but I assumed the coaching staff would be working on their tactical approach to the next few matches, as well as everything else a manager should be doing (working with the scouting department, considering improvements, taking a look at the youth products, working with the players still at the club).

 

Wonder if Klopp and Guardiola are in Tenerife.

Agreed, but in OGS case I imagine he is in every day for long hours unlike bacon face Bruce, so probably feels it’s a good time now to relax, I also imagine Man Utd will have a lot of players away at all levels. If this was Bruce taking another holiday I’d be livid.

Especially one under the pressure Ole is who’s team is underperforming

Isn't on "holiday." Visiting family in Norway.

 

Very petty thing this to try and tackle him with. Absolutely no problems with it.

I was raging when Bruce did it here tbf.


It “made sense” with Bruce - every international week as a player, he was the only one not away so Fergie gave him time off.

 

Solskjaer was a Norway regular for much of his career, wasn’t he?
