Davkaus Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Tell you what, the Newcastle/Leicester game was proper shite. 3 shots on target all game, Newcastle having 30% possession at home and nicking a goal against the run of play, but so sympathy for Leicester, they only had 1 shot on target. Proper brexitball all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough if Puel put out that performance the "experts" be out calling for his head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I suppose results don't matter when you're British. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From his upbringing I am 100 percent sure Rodgers would be offended to be called British Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Also its getting really boring that British managers are always criticised. Dyche, Howe, Smith, Wilder even Lampard have all been praised at times this season. No criticism of Southgate either Its the dinosaur British managers like Bruce, Pulis, Hughes etc that people rightly dont rate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Southgate is criticised quite often, particularly when it comes to squad selection. Dyche and Howe certainly have, towards the back end of last season definitely. There's also the inverse too, where they don't get the credit. Who got more credit for their 7th place finish? Burnley and Dyche, or Wolves and Nuno, who spent a fortune more? Barely heard a peep out of Burnley getting 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
