If some people wear them on when they reach the Cup Final while playing Championship Manager then I don't see why he's above it.

Didn't seem to hinder Laudrup, he wears his customary shirt and jeans. Oh and Michu don't look bad for £2m either

lets see how he does over the season, but it's annoying that we can't seem to identify strikers other than those well known big names who have no real interest in playing for a club that pays average wages and isnt in the CL, and cost so much they were arent willing to pay the price their clubs want for them

we probably do need a DF. our transfer business has gotten mightly sloppy lately

It's annoying because this has been the case for so long now, Demba Ba/Papiss Cisse/Jelavic are just a few players that weren't that expensive that could have improved us.

I hope avb gets a chance to implement his own scouting network as there's is no point always going after the Llorente's/Leandro's/Remy's when they're established stars. We need to go for guys that clearly see us as a step up.

I had to laugh at the fact that AVB was trending on twitter for the whole match. The main subject in question? His lack of suit! And, to a lesser extent, the tragic lack of weird squatting. We did get the Iberian Tigger goal celebration though...:LOL:

I'm going to have to refresh your memory .

We have reverted to the D.O.F. structure .

If it all goes tits up it's AVB's fault .

It it's a resounding success , then all the credit goes to the board .

Only one flaw in the plan , if it goes tits up this time after finishing the two most successful managers of recent times for foreign glamour the board will have completely exhausted any credibility they might ever have had .

I actually liked him not wearing a suit and I also liked his interview afterwards.

We lost, but nice one AVB.

His interview was spot on, couldn't disagree with a word of it. Imagine if he said those things wearing a suit? They'd give him the Premier League trophy there and then.
