KaKa Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Yeah, this guy was different levels tonight. Unreal. Was delighted as soon as I saw they weren't paying him any special attention. You cannot do that with him. He will destroy you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume he turned in Steve Bruce levels of preparation because he couldn’t have selected a worse approach if he tried. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 yep the 4-2-4 seemed what you'd do against a team you expect to roll over, and I would think that would be a bit presumptuous against most teams that have qualified for the champions league tbh. Would expect that naivite more from a new coach like Howe than someone with his experience... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's won a champions league as manager, and I know Roberto Di Matteo has too but he is better than that. He maybe had a very beneficial setup at Barca, and wouldn't shock me if he could never quite replicate that he's no mug, but was strange. PSG are a clownshow who churn through good managers Edited October 4, 2023 by Tiresias Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he knows what to do with the PSG players, as I'm not sure the players there are suitable for his typical style of play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 2 minutes ago, Skeletor said: They're 5th in Ligue 1. Think he's just shite. Another rotten club. It was a failure of a project. When you start paying players obscene amounts of money like what Mbappe is on.. it can only ever lead to the opposite of what we have at our club. Zero togetherness. Enrique isn’t a shit manager but I don’t think he’s ever been the same since his kid died. Who would in fairness. He’s a classy bloke and was very respectful of us before and after the game.

The College Dropout Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 He won the CL and treble with a prime Neymar, Suarez and Messi. Iniesta, Xavi and a prime Rakitic behind them. That was a bit of a dream team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 I said in the pre match thread. That midfield duo looked light. I knew that Zaire-Emery kid was a wonder kid and he played really well. But the 4 options weren’t intimidating. The most tactically astute managers have a Bruno plan. If they don’t, he’ll likely kill their team. And he killed PSG. He’s obviously played them before but he knew what it meant today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays with Bruno in mind the way nobody else does. He mentioned in the doc his job was to let Bruno play or something along those lines and it’s true.

sixx Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Even in the very tightest of spots I sigh a relief every time he receives the ball. Having that kind of a press resistant outlet is ridiculously valuable. I love his half turn and outside boot pass when he’s under pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 I know this will get said every time he has a good game.. but the top teams wouldn't blink at £100m for this guy if he continues as he has since he stepped foot in the door. He is such a huge presence at this club. I really hope he stays for many many years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
