Ron Manager:
Oh, those Brazilians, you know? Circa 1970? Broke the mould. Theory out the window. Free expression of football. Uncategorisable. Is that a word? It is now! You know? Far cry from small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts. Rush goalie. Two at the back, three in the middle, four up front, one's gone home for his tea. Beans on toast? Possibly, don't quote me on that. Marvellous.

Everytime i read the formation i crack-up 2-3-4 up front...
 
I hate it when a player gets sent off in the 90th minute, and every single report of the game says "Man City beat 10-man West Brom." as if they would've got the 3 goals back if they had the extra man for 3 more minutes.
 
'He really couldn't have hit that better' (said after the ball comes back off the crossbar).

...or when a player misses and they say 'unlucky'. It's not unlucky at all - he didn't score because he didn't hit it well enough.
 
"I've been consistent in patches this season" - THEO WALCOTT

"I look forward to hearing from the silent majority" - ALEX McLEISH

"I haven't seen it, but it looks generous" - ARSENE WENGER

"Whoever you support, you've got that blood in your veins" - PHIL NEAL

"Paolo Di Canio is one picnic short of a hamper" - ALAN BRAZIL

"If we'd kept a clean sheet tonight, we'd have won 1-0" - STEVE COTTERILL, AFTER FOREST LOST 2-1

"They can push the bat a little bit more than others at that level" - STEVE CLARIDGE

"In the end, Rosicky initially did well" - ANDY TOWNSEND

"He's been like a fresh of breath air" - ROY KEANE

"The thing about goalscorers is that they score goals" - TONY COTTEE

"I don't want Rooney to leave these shores but if he does, I think he'll go abroad" - IAN WRIGHT

"Belgium are outside dark favourites to win the group" - IAIN DOWIE

"Six yards out and Wheater headers it over" - PAUL MERSON

"Luis Suarez is a victim of his own make-up" - MICKY QUINN

"Sometimes you want Obertan to open his legs and do something a bit exciting" - ALAN PARDEW
 
"I can see the carrot at the end of the tunnel." - STUART PEARCE

Didn't he say that after seeing Jasper coming onto the pitch at Wembley?
Another classic Stuart Pearce:

"I think we have all been headbutted in the face at sometime in life."

And that was when he was our manager.
