Fear Of The Fox

You beat me guys, I came to post exactly the same. Wtf is this? It isn't football for sure. This must be one of worse or even the worst game ever in the Premier League history. Turned it off. There are other ways to torture myself. I'll speak to my wife.

No way Conceicao is going there unless they splash 18M for him. Ain't happening. I can't see Moyes also accepting such a job for relegation battle. It will probably be a young fairly unknown manager which again isn't good for us as some of them are very good tactically spending thousand of hours in Football Manager. Best for us would have been Cooper because he's absolutely clueless in every single department of football management.

This is the kind of game you put Daka and Vardy upfront with Buonanotte behind them and you play aggressively from the first second. Score the first goal and you simply demolish them afterwards as they'll be hugely exposed in counter attacks with gaps all over the place. I can't really think of a more suitable game to play with 2 upfront. Ruud needs to wake up and if he can't by himself he can sign up here and ask for tactical help. I really had enough of these stubborn managers.

Even though I saw signs of more direct football I'm not convinced either. He's another manager too scared to shake things up tactically. Our midfield is all over the place injuries issues or not. He's not even trying to field a more compact unit playing a diamond with a full low block. Yes this will probably leave both flanks more exposed but as it is I'd rather have the opposition throwing crosses in rather cutting as like butter through the midfield.

Can we call up into the squad a GK from the U16s or even U12s? They'll surely do a better job than Ward.

Our team and bench today is so thin and weak even a master tactician like me is struggling to come up with something that it might work. I'd go all in and crazy: Get in Faes as a DMF replacing McAteer. Buonanotte for Khannous and have Mavididi in front with Vardy switching sides.

If we manage to get a draw here I'm opening a champagne tonight early for Christmas. Make it two, I'm opening another one for the new year also.

He's an incredible coach/manager. Most people don't like him because he's feisty etc but what he's doing at Atletico is legendary. All their games are a joy to watch, they fight until the last second, they might be 3-0 down by the 90th min and still turn the game around. There's no other team in the planet this season that has scored more 85+min goals and if I remember well it was the same at least the last 3 seasons. Maybe Leverkuzen had more last season idk. I think they'll win La Liga this season. I wish we had a manager like him, talented, tactically knowledgeable and committed to the club. Simeone will stay at Atletico until he's 70yr old I reckon.

They're getting relegated, decision will be published end of May, appeal will be discussed at CAS in July as an urgent case, final decision end of July.

What Top 4? They're not getting Top 4 even with the minimum points deduction and they know it. Are you assuming they'll be found non guilty for 115 charges while at least 3 of them have a major punishment of direct relegation?

Imo this is the only game they can't afford to lose in the current situation. Journos might start questioning what's happening. They can't lose vs this Man Utd team at Etihad this Sunday. Even their "tourist fans" will explode.

They already know the verdict on the 115 charges and all the players and staff have strict like mafia instructions not to leak anything. If anybody thinks their collapse is natural because they miss a couple of players probably believes aliens will visit us and have a meeting with Biden and Trump.

More chances to win a WC with Nigeria than with England.

I really find it shocking someone that fails everytime in his job to get the same job elsewhere and add more millions into his bank account. This world is done, run by idiots for idiots. Disgusting.

He's hungry as a wolf. Sorry couldn't resist again. 😜

If Vardy stays fit we'll most likely continue to score goals. Even when this legend just walks he's a threat and creates gaps for all his teammates. If we also manage to fix our defense we'll probably pull away easily from the zone. Big if ofc because even Man City can't sort out their defense.

I don’t think the board has the audacity to make contract proposals or set terms regarding Vardy. You just meet him and ask what he wants and which are his future plans. I know this is professional football but there are players you simply don't negotiate with. Vardy is one of them.

If Vardy was playing for Barca/Real or Bayern that period his stats would have been out of this world.

If anybody wants to be entertained by football, you can't go wrong with Atletico games. Week in week out it's a spectacle. Simeone is a legend you like him or not.

Vardy for Leicester is the equivalent of Michael Jordan for the Bulls. He's untouchable anyway you see it. Personal records, team records, trophies, every record was broken and everything was achieved under his era. We're talking about the Vardy era.

Nope. Signed young Vardy back then in the Championship Manager series. Can't find anyone now in Football Manager with the same impact.

When I was younger playing professional basketball it was demoralising seeing fans leaving early even when as a team we had a slim chance to turn the game around. Ofc nowadays I guess players are generally thick and they might not care that much but it's more than obvious a proper loud support still has an impact on the flow of the game. It happened today after 1-2. As I said earlier I'm not leaving even if we're 0-9 down.

It's absolutely hilarious. This team is so rotten to the core. Seriously it should be some kind of scientific research for this club. It's schizospursia.

They'll invent any excuse right now. I'm amazed I haven't yet seen a post blaming Putin for leaving early.

They left in hundreds after 0-2. If we were up 2-1 they'd stayed there until the final whistle. Idk why you're trying to defend such behaviour.
