I didnt agree with the OP but it was passionate and articulate and very much from the heart.
His criticisms of Mancini on the whole have been reasoned, thorough and, quite frankly, superbly written. Even when I have shook my head and audibly said to the screen 'No, you're wrong!' as I have read them I've respected the guy's insight, dissection of tactics, and honesty.
Perhaps it isnt very evident in this particular OP but in others he always offers proposed 'solutions' (put in inverted commas because, like I say, I dont agree with them usually) to the percieved problems he sees. As opposed to many others who do not.
Yet he gets all this abuse on here.
Compare K.Reeves Right Foot's output with others who come on BlueMoon folowing a poor display and spew out such things as 'Fuck off Mancini. Go now. Mancini OUT' etc and I think its incredibly unfair that he recieves this singling out. They get off scot-free because their criticism is so one-dimensional that nobody notices them and they blend in with the other knee-jerkers.
I would always hope that on a football forum there will be erudite posters offering well-written, heartfelt, and intelligent opposing views on management, tactics and the style of football we produce. This encourages interesting and reasoned debate.
Its just a shame that K.Reeves Right Foot's detractors do not share his ability to write to such a high standard (probably due to a lack of intelligence) and have to resort to such baseless bile I've just read through.
He deserves a worthy adversary. Instead he gets lager-lad numbskulls.
