Collage Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Can never make my mind up on him. Some days I think he's the most tedious dullard around who's long since been eclipsed; other times I find him extremely charismatic and almost Rafa-like in his obsessive nature and studiousness. He's definitely an icon. This. I love and hate him. In terms of success and building a winning team he was the best. Turgid football. But he’s a proper manager in a way, obsessive about the game, great tactician. The arrogant tosser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 It's a funny thing, arrogance. It's a trait I find a bit repulsive basically anywhere in everyday life - except for football, where, in many cases, it's something I admire and consider to be really important (providing there's at least some justification).

I don’t know and not the point. He’s not as good as he once was, which makes me less tolerable towards his arrogance. That was my point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 The point is, one of his finest talents was winding up the media. His clainm that he was special was just a part of that. You need self belief to play with the media, and a little arrogance to not care so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I suspect the congested calendar just simply doesn't have room for the game to be played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Mourinho got the refs to check the size of the goals before KO claiming they were too small. Turned out he was right by 5cm. Impressive imagine Bruce having this kind of wherewithal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Actually there was an incident at Morecambe where Bruce was heard to be complaining about the size of the steak pies. That was also before KO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I suspect the congested calendar just simply doesn't have room for the game to be played. Not like next weeks fixture could be delayed instead, considering the round after that won’t be played until December. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Mad how many Prem flops/ hasbeens the Forest squad has.
