BORING BORING DUDSBURY
Go study Charlie HUGHES or was it Leslie
Guess you dont think we play well unless we score the same nunber
of goals as our opponents
We should know by now that according to the gospel of
Dudsbury only 1 point a game wins prizes
We will be stronger 2nd half of the season
Ha ha KFA - We prefer to be strong at the start to
KFA
I laughed.

He's such a shit manager, we're joint top of the league on points and FA Cup holders. Wish we could sack the stupid fuc*er and get someone decent in like 'arry Redknapp, or, bring back Hughes - we'd be doing even better then.

Are you serious about this? I think you actually are.
Do you think any one of those managers didn't communicate with their players on a personal level and on an ongoing basis? Brian Clough and Bill Shankley were masters at getting their players bought into them. They key is, they knew that different players required managing in different ways. If you take Mancini's "one size fits all" approach, you alienate a number of your players, or don't get the best from them. And there are as-yet undiscovered lifeforms on the side of hydrothermic vents at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean who can see clearly that it's a problem with Mancini's style.
And with regards to your opening comment, I'd say that you work in a largely unskilled job, or haven't been a major success at what you do.
They were all shit scared of Clough weren't they? I was very much under the impression that the arm around the should stuff was almost exclusively left to Peter Taylor.

I've been a big student of Brian Clough and whilst he could be a hard disciplinarian, when necessary, he also had a real soft side. His strengths were that he knew how to design a team but he knew what made people tick. And he played on that, manipulated them if you like, to get the best from them. Some he psyched up, some he scared, some he complemented.
The most common thing you will hear from good players about Cloughie is that he made them feel like the best player in the world.

You claim that Mancini's alleged lack of man management skills and his, as you claim, 'one size fits all' approach will alienate some players. While i am sure that you are speaking from personal experience having been the CEO of a huge corporation, could you tell me as to how you are privy to the managers working and methods? Surely you cant deduce too much by observing externally.

Says our resident international business guru who somehow miraculously spends all day on this site. Or maybe I'm wrong and you are taking a well earned early retirement after a life spent making millions.
Still your ability with the off the cuff put down is up with the best. And is worth the entrance fee alone.

He was half the manager without Taylor though so he must have been lacking at least one of the necessary skills to manage a football team that Taylor provided.
