Foxhateram Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 this is a direct quote "were not likely to win tonight, and i dont mind if we dont" is this his way of hyping up the players, getting them to prove him wrong or is it just the sign of him becoming a shadow of the manager he was supposed to be? what do you think?

Foxhateram Posted 8 January 2006 Author Share Posted 8 January 2006 He is right, though. its the FA cup, anything can happen! did luton say that last night! ok they didnt win in the end but they made liverpool work for it! he should be encouraging the players to go out and give there all and show the spurs that the midlands is beeter than London every step of the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 I don't like to hear the manager talk like that but i think he just wants to take the pressure of the players and see what happens. It will be interesting to see how we play away from the pressure of the league situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 Does anyone have the same thoughts as me? Levein will today play Paul Henderson in goal, because come on lets face it we are not really likly to win are we? So Levein will play Henderson, Levein will hope (For Rabs sake) Tottenham score a few, then Levein has an excuse for not playing Henderson, and because he loves Rab so much, he can then play Rab and make this as an excuse for not playing Henderson? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone? What utter bolloxs people are now starting to post! Levein, the Devil incarnate, only joined LCFC to see our demise never mind the affect it will have on his own career.

Levein, the Devil incarnate, only joined LCFC to see our demise never mind the affect it will have on his own career. Yeh I bet he'd love to see Spurs spank us so he can put it on his CV. Well he's said; "were not likely to win tonight, and i dont mind if we dont" So what are fans ment to think? Yeah I don't think we will either, and its the truth, but don't you think the manager should be fired up for the match? I'm not slaggin Levein off after he has been quoted as saying that because as I said its the truth and I don't think we will win either, however ain't the manager ment to fire the players up instead of talking negative? And as for the "What utter bolloxs people are now starting to post!" prehaps its fans becoming delusional after watching the shite we have seen recently or comments we have heard from players/manager?

I have to agree with you there. Stupid comment by Matt, and if it was an attempt at being witty, it was a very poor effort. I'd bet that people will start putting their heads up Levein's arse again, if we, however unlikely it is, stuff Tottenham. Disappointing to see so many so-called fans losing their sense of realism and perspective to have a go at the manager at every possible opportunity.

You really need to have heard the whole of the interview to be able to give that statement some context. Pulling quotes like that is a trick that newspapers like the Sun use to misrepresent peoples' views. After reading his other comments it's highly unlikely that he wouldn't mind if we lose.

Suffolk_fox Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 Alex Ferguson uses mind games all the time, if Spurs think we aren't bothered then we go out and play our hearts out, it fcuks their game plan up. FFS, every opportunity is being taken to have a go at CL, and to be honest it is starting to get a little tiresome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 If he'd said "I think we can win tonight' he would get blasted anyway I don't know if it was question Levein had been asked or whether it was just a comment but Levein but why did he have to say anything? If the question was asked surly he could have got round the question, Tim Davies did when he was questioned about Levein furture the other day...Davies even turned the question back to the interviewer. If he said "we can win tonight" - People would expect a win If he said "We ain't gonna win tonight" (Which he has said) - People call him negative...and to back him up he plays 4-5-1 Its like Dickov when he was questioned are you staying?, He didn't need to say he was staying he could have just said "I'm not sure, we'll have to see what happens" Whats so hard about that?!
