Steve Holland getting involved. Does that mean it’s setting the foundations for the waistcoat to take charge in the summer?

I think it’s more like:

Step by step or;
Little by little or;
By stealth or;
Slowly, slowly catchy monkey or;
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha the waistcoats on his way!
 
It’s funny now on twitter when you see all the tweets and videos on how Middlesbrough (lol) played under Carrick. Do they not remember the football Ten Hag was playing with Ajax before he joined the scum. Every single manager there reverts to the same tactics. They try and change things immediately, realise it won’t work and play on the counter.

So now they are applying the rules of the game and it's not corrupt? Make your mind up!
Because that's the point isn't it, the rules are irrelevant so ignore that an Everton player was offside, ignore that it hits the top of of Rodri's arm and then give the pen and screw City over.
In one example your saying how they didn't follow the rules and then in the next you say it's fine they followed the rules You honestly make no sense!

Eh ? The first offence was that an Everton player was offside. That is why there is no debate about a possible handball. There was no need to discuss any offence after that. This has been done to death on BM why you are still quoting it I really have no idea.
 
This might sound controversial, but I don't think that they have a bad squad. They can deffo put out a fully fit starting 11 that can compete. The problem they have is a complete lack of confidence, lack of passion, lack of energy. It is totally flat. Nobody is willing to make a risky pass, because you have the groans from those fans who have seen success, sat with their arms folded. And then the pundits on TV and on social media who have won everything, who get paid to stick the boot in on you.

Carrick aint gonna change any of that. He's a softy spoken, un-emotional robot of a man.

They need the fire and energy of someone like Simeone. If Carrick gets top four I will eat my hat.

To me they have a squad full of misfits, players bought over a period of time by different managers with different views on how to set up their teams. As it is they are directionless because none of them seem to be pulling in the same direction, it's as if each individual player is saying: "Nah, I don't want to do that, I'll do this instead."
We play as a team: Pep has us all singing from the same sheet, as it were. And in all fairness so do Arsenal, and the dippers did under Bingo, but the rags' squad is a collection of over-priced and ineffectual square pegs forced into round holes by a boardroom of people who know next to fuck all about running a football club - and I appreciate their incompetence like no one will ever know!
 
Read a few different sources that Berrada and Wilcox had a meeting with the pisscan to get his views on van horseface, the parking space avoider and car wreck. Seems he annointed car wreck and is still pulling the strings
