Ha HA - thanks for the update ! Now Rafa is back I BELIEVE !
Yeah but Rafa is a no nothing cunt according to you? You can't have your cake and eat it Ross....oh.
It all adds up !
Lucky :Torres will score 20
Liar : saying he's crocked to make opposing managers believe they need to pay no special heed
Manipulator : getting Ross to believe he's home and dry
Lads, Harvard Medical Review came out with a new found condition for football fans in their latest quarterly,. Rossanfieldinl 4 Syndrome - Medical condition where fans turns on their own clubs most successful manager in 20 years, picking out every flaw,driven by the disappointment that the success was not continuous, while praising other successful and unsuccessful imperfect managers at rival clubs. It's true, I've seen it!
It's now 12 hours and 19 minutes since Torres last scored. Surely he's running out of time at Chelsea?
It's been seven hours and fifteen days since he took his goals away.
That sounds like Piedro's sort of form.
Is Pete really that bad?
Well he seems to score very regularly if you consider that bad😉
I hope you win...
I have a feeling Ross is gonna eat a shit load of humble pie... regarding Rafa, Torres, and his ridiculous opinion on mangers being useless etc..
And from what I hear, he is going to love it!

It's not just my opinion, it's a statistical fact.
No, the problem is that you've found one random statistic and applied to some sweeping generalisation that somehow managers are 100% irrelevent.
Which is absurd Ross.
Not irrelevant.
With two exceptions they don't have any positive effect on a club when you equalise all other factors. And that over the course of a season there was no evidence that tactics made any appreciable difference to a team.
The game is all about the players.

He's one if the two exceptions. And a perfect example of how people wrongly judge squads. People think Unitec have a weak squad buoyed by some unknown magical power belonging to Fergie. The truth is its always been a strong squad and all it does is highlight the gap between what people think makes a good team and what actually does make a good team
Does Fergie actually do tactics? I think he just tells the players to go out and batter the opposition, and if they don't he shouts angrily at them at half-time which makes them play better in the second half.
*Not sure if joking*
Obviously he does do tactics. He has been adapting his team tactically throughout his tenure. To begin with he battered teams with a 4-4-2 formation, and then he adapted his tactics in line with trends in continental football. I wouldn't say he blinds his players with tactical information, but there's no doubt he is a tactician.

Not to mention his letter to Rafa after the 2005 final in which he wrote his opinion on the tactics in that game, and what he would have done.
This fact you speak of.... where is it?
