    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    Levy is like a really good player. Most of the time make sensible correct decisions but he is an exceptional player who can turn the game in his sides favour. He lacks the instinct to be really good and relies on his experience never making the bold move. On the business side he is like an...

    Harry Kane

    My only comment on wanting to win trophies is.. How many retired players legacy is judged by how many trophies they have won. I have not heard it said that Cryuff, Maradona, Greaves, Bale ( no significance in the names just random selection) have won x amount of medals They are talked about...

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    It is about the type of mf players the managers want to suit his system They have to compliment each other. Im not sure Hojbjerg suits Postegolou style but thats only my interpretation Hojbjerg is however a decent prem player but maybe not right for the new style

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    The chart does not indicate where the start point of the passing is . It is far more difficult to progressve pass in the final third of the pitch than in he defence third. For example by dropping back and picking the ball up from the goalkepper on the edge of the area it is unlikely that the...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    The article is interesting. Money changed football from being a sport to an investment business and therefore attracted a different type of owner. Gone are the passionate football lovin chairman and income executive business people looking to better their financial position. Although its...

    What went wrong for Antonio Conte at Tottenham?

    Agreed But my point not well made was Stellini s a Conte man having worked for him before Given the circumstances it would have been normal for him to leave as well But its only an observation

    What went wrong for Antonio Conte at Tottenham?

    Correction Not sacked but by Mutual Agreement Maybe semantic but usually when a Manager / Coach is fired his team go with him Curious that Stellini remains

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I am saying he has a strategy and that is to win things Its just not in the same time frame as impatient fans. We have made significant progress but not as much as fans would like. We certainly are more likely to progress than Reading! Be fair The majority of fans had turned against...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I'm not quite sure of your point However this article is looking at a point in time How many of the clubs above us have been there for years or rescued by obscene abouts of money from a benefactor

    Levy negotiated the contract Did he make the first move to buy the player ? And look at them now Happy to be a Wigan supporter

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I dont really get the qoutes " Levy doesnt worry about winning things" and "He buys players that he wants" I have never seen evidence to support either of those statements om anybody If it were suggested that he takes a balance approach to success and financial stability that doesnt suit fans...

    Our players lack desire

    It is oh so different now Football has changed beyond recognition Even big spenders in them days only bought a player or two Many teams challenged for the league and it changed who was the best from one year to the next I hate the fact we dont have swathes of money to throw around but we do...
