I suspect, professionally, he's extremely hard nosed and will be very focused and single minded in pursuit of what he sees is correct. Like any line of business, that can get one a reputation of being cold or uncaring. Football can be cut throat.
Subliminal innit
I'm intrigued by the use of two decimals here. Is this to obfuscate we paid £0.0012 for him, or just a quirk?
I'm not arsed how much Pennington was on because he was absolutely turnip as well.
Your implied point is that we have lost DCL to injury and that means we are completely and utterly uncompetitive. I reject that thesis and maintain that we are underperforming. Plenty of teams lose their main striker to injury, often for longer than we have had DCL out for, and don't collapse like the England cricket team down under.
So you acknowledge he has no plan B? Once plan A is knacked that's it, expected losses? Seems a bit silly to me but then I'm not a master tactition.
In that they're both rubbish but you inexplicably think they're both boss?
he was good for 20 mins against liverpool, and by good, I mean he held the ball up a few times.
Simms and Dobbin cost nothing, could have used the game time, and most likely will both make the club a profit at some point.
no, I was making the point that his whole recruitment strategy was blown to bits, and that his plans for the season had to be totally rewritten with the loss of dcl. It's just important to be aware that if we had kept him fit the way he was for Carlo, I reckon we would be well on course to better last season's 'exploits'.
No id rather have had no one at all, than having to watch that fat mess tryna run.
jeez windy, he's a chap that has won trophies wherever he's gone (save for the mercy missions such as Newcastle), and he's had three months of season one. Relax, it's going to be okay. The danger has passed.
