Brendas mind games leave a lot to be desired. He seems incapable of giving a press conference without talking more about us than his own team. He thinks he turning the pressure up on us, but really its just adding to his growing comical reputation.

He wants us to slam 6 past them as they are safe.
He hates Liverpool and says he cant wait to see us lift the trophy because its the closest West Ham will ever get to it .

To make the assertions he has, which are so demonstrably wrong (eg number of games won on the bounce, players involved in a particular move) suggests he is either:
Stupid
A pathological liar
Suffering from some sort of psychological disorder.
as no person of normal intelligence believing what they were saying would publicly say something which was so discernibly incorrect. imo he displays the hallmarks of someone with serious issues.
I realise what he's trying to do, I am questioning his means of trying to deliver it.Goo said:gordondaviesmoustache said:If I was in his position and I'd elected to engage in the game he's playing, I would make absolutely sure that every word that left my mouth was accurate.

I see your point GDM, but I can't help but think he's only doing what he thinks is best for his team in terms of relieving pressure etc.
Granted, to us it's frustrating as hell, but it's amateur hour all day with him, so it doesn't really bother me anymore.
He's a rookie at this level in terms of dealing with the media, he's nothing on our Pellegrini. The cream always rises to the top
