Apokalips's latest activity

Ah yes, I did forget about that whole "jobs for the boys" nonsense. Funny considering how many mention both Carrick and McKenna as desired future managers.

There was a desperation from some to absolve Ole of the blame for our performances.

As if! Bloody Coventry overturned a 3 goal deficit in 20 mins, City would easily do that in 80! We'd get beat 6-3 again probably!!

But if the managers plan is not to sit (which it clearly is), then both that defender and midfielder could get blasted or dropped for not following instructions. I can't see players telling each other to ignore the manager's instructions...

It's not his biggest faux pas and I'm not outraged or anything, but he should have the ambition to try and win it all, reach for the stars etc. He should be conveying belief in himself and his squad, this feels like Jose self preservation...

The overconfidence in here about Slot failing because of Erik's poor performance will probably leave us with egg on our faces.

So he fought with Leonardo over transfers but is not interested in transfer dealings, hence his fall out with Chelsea? I'm not sure this makes much sense unless you're saying Leonardo wanted him to deal with transfers too? When someone repeatedly...

Absolutely incredible to think back on...wow!

Fully agreed, I've said it many times that the way fans talk about giving managers time and carte blanche to do what they want in hope they turn into Fergie is so disrespectful and oblivious to how truly great Fergie was. All these fans saying...

Simple and accurate. I have no idea why Mourinho at United is ever spoken about, especially in glowing terms. He was a prick and past it and those that he talked down actually kept him in a job and were excellent at times under Ole.

They are also swift at getting rid of coaches and players who do not meet their standards. That swiftness stops malaise setting in and standards across the board dropping. They are far from perfect, but they aggressively pursue success, whereas...
