Oh I accept it can work but I suspect a lot depends upon the manager in question.

Howard Kendall might have actually known those player, whereas Ten Haag clearly didn't know much about his signings, except perhaps that they were dutch ?

On the flip side to Kendall and ten Bob, none of Bobby, Pellers and Pep went back to former clubs, because their knowledge of the game and players was much more comprehensive. Fernandinho arriving from Shakhtar is a prime example. Very few people knew about him, but Manuel did.

Balotelli?

That really identifies the make up and abilities good managers possess, with a wide knowledge of players,as opposed the less well informed.

I was guilty of initially thinking £30 million was a huge fee for Fernandinho, and what the fuck are we doing , as I knew nothing about him.

I also failed my interview for the DOF job !

Watching Amorimjob's face after the game yesterday he was deep in thought and using my powers of deduction I'm sure he was thinking these lot are fucking shit and its going to take a while to get rid of most of them.

Balotelli?

Yeah, I’d forgotten Mario, but he was one player; not a full fucking team sheet, like ten Bob.

Only another 29 consecutive defeats to go, then United fans can hang a new 34 defeats banner at the Stretford End.

Absolutely pathetic.

Grown men, dressed in black(arf!), holding up a bed sheet, with childish words on it.

But it doesn't. The addition of the word AGAIN kills the rhyme. My God they are fucking stupid.

I’m still trying to work out what it means after reading it back quite a few times. Absolutely embarrassing stuff, it gives me nice warm feelings that we have destroyed them that many times over the years that a loss in form from City is all they have to be happy about.

Best bit was when they scored after about 3 seconds and it showed all the rag fans in the crowd waving their cocks about with their smug “we’re back” faces thinking this was some magical ability the Seventh One had bestowed upon the team with his intangible genius.

Then as the game unfolded it was abundantly clear Ipswich were the better side and the cunts are still wank.

How long before their dickhead fans are kicking off saying we should have kept van horse chops?
