One of the better threads I've read this year.
I can already see a few Ole inners getting defensive , even though this thread isn't particularly about Ole at all.
Another myth to add is that whenever we appoint a new manager, fans seem to think that the new manager has to "rip up the squad and we are back to square one again". Honestly I have no idea where that belief came from. Why is it necessary to "rip up" the squad. A decent/good manager can work with what he's got and implement his tactics on the squad. Our players are professionals and are not robots who are programmed to a certain set of tactics only. A good manager would improve those players and improve the squad further with a few more signings down the road. Really do hate it when someone panics and says, "We shouldn't sack manager X because it will destroy what he has been building and the new manager will just rip it all apart and we are back to square one again!" WTF?
