  1. What does it mean if I knew straightaway?
  2. I wouldn't consider sacking any manager so early into the season, but the talk of him being amazing at press conferences baffles me. As far as I can see he churns out a few of the old cliches and gets really defensive when questioned on specifics.
  3. Exactly. It's just a shame their last infallible appointment, Dean Smith, tragically died so young to vacate the position. I do suspect the decision making on hiring managers will largely be delegated to Christian Purslow, the man who appointed Roy Hodgson at Liverpool.
  4. I wouldn't bother. Seeing how many British pundits can't see past a name it's not surprising that some fans can't either.
  5. He did exactly this on instagram a few days ago.
  6. What is it you see in Nat Phillips? He's barely played any games and the few times I've watched him he looked championship standard.
  7. We know they don't have enough food to feed their population. We know they do have pictures of supermarkets to 'fool' tourists from a distance. We know they do have nukes, but don't have anywhere near as many as Russia. We know they don't have advanced military tech. We know they do have cyber warfare capabilities, but less effective than Russia's. We know they do have a ridiculous man-child in charge who frequently talks big, but has done absolutely nothing to back it up. We know they do have Dennis Rodman as a state friend. We know they don't have any other friends on the world stage. If it weren't for China propping them up North Korea would have collapsed long ago. I know which one of the two I'd be more concerned a bout throwing their full weight behind Russia and they're too savvy to do so.
  8. He actually said it was a bit of both, which doesn't really make sense.
  9. I doubt any impact of adding North Korean cooperation would even be noticed.
  10. Their last two promotions they have walked the league with "dainty ball players". He has actually clearly been trying to address their lack of physicality by getting Isaac Hayden in.
  11. Now we just have to hope a midfielder and forward rupture their achilles too so we can get top class replacements in for them and the positivity will really be rolling.
  12. He did say it was a bit about the captaincy in the full quotes you posted didn't he? If he was too injured to start then how can it be about anything else. Either way, it doesn't really matter now. Hopefully Ming's continues to start and plays well, or he gets replaced because one of the others has stepped up and shown they can win aerial balls!
  13. I know plenty of people with "crappy degrees" earning extremely good money. Any talk of cutting them back is just gatekeeping certain jobs as many employers require a degree to get in the door for an interview.
  14. Smart money says for the first time.
  15. Keep going in more threads, they're getting wittier each time.
  16. I'm sure they will be if we're playing well. The worry is if we concede and look to be offering little to get back in the game. I'm really hoping for a good start here. I'm not even that worried about winning at this point, it's more important to show some cohesion and idea of how to break teams down in the managers preferred formation.
  17. That picture shows only one of them looking the other in the eye!
  18. Huh? He couldn't be more different as a player to the two strikers you're referencing.
  19. The few clips I've seen do make him look a bit of a tit. It seems like most managers are tbh.
  20. It's a joke. All this talk of mentally weak players for you to go and show yourself up as very easily offended! I haven't wondered why people respond adversely as no one has because I've ignored most of the debates in here for months. I have a few who have firmly placed themselves on my 'don't bother' list by repeating the same trite nonsense year after year.
  21. It didn't factor in passion or getting stuck in.
