I did read your post and that doesn't change my opinion of him one bit. Journos are often provocative, that's what they do. Doesn't mean you should write off everything else they say.

What's astute is his stuff about the change in emphasis in modern football, away from conventional 442 to a formation that makes the most out of attacking midfielders and expects strikers to be much more well-rounded "total footballers" than they would have been in the past. It's also astuts of him to point out the similarities between our tactics/formations, last season, and those employed by Spalleti.
The 4-6-0 stuff is just him being provocative again. Certainly got a reaction out of you.
