Lets wait and see then...

Haven't you learned anything about Scolari? It is always the same. The team plays relatively bad throughout the tournament, but still manages to advance. Then, the team plays well in the final (might even lose, but still)... - Gremio 1995 and 1996. - Palmeiras 1998, 1999 and 2000. - Brazil 2002. - Portugal 2004. - Palmeiras 2012. - Brazil 2013 and 2014(?).

I wish there wasnt a game on Sunday for 3rd and 4th place. I want Cavani confirmed as soon as possible!

LUGANO, VIADO! LUGANO, VIADO! LUGANO, VIADO!

Neymar is so amazing!

Cavani can fuck himself with his work ethics all he wants...

GOOOOOOOOALLLL! BRAAASIILLLL!!!!

Fuck you!

Having one of the worst games of his career today. It is 10 vs 12, basically Brazil vs Uruguay + Luiz!

Fuck, dont want Cavani here anymore!

Really? I actually think the very opposite. Bad game and bot very deservingly for Brazil to be winning, 1-1 would have been more fair!

C'MON BRAZIL!!!

Anywhere but airports!

I fucking, utterly hate airports, they are the worst invention of human kind (exagerating a bit).

That is actually true, but I still disagree though!

If he continues to show his quality, I will continue to call him great no matter if he wins trophies or not. A manager can win a tournament doing a lot of mistakes and so can a manager lose a tournament doing absolutely everything right! I only talked about trophies because you started with the CV thing. However, a manager doesnt become great only after winning a trophy, he has to be already great before. The fact someone is great at what it does takes them to glory and not the other way around. For instance, imagine Neymar takes Brazil to be World Cup winners in 2014. That doesnt mean he will only be great after winning it. It is not how it works. Neymar had to be already great before, even if the recognition comes after the trophy. The same applies to Mourinho, he is not great because he won things everywhere. But he won many things exactly because he is more than great.

First I havent said that, just read the post again if you like (or you can read your own quote if you think I edited it). Second, one (see, not you in specific) that think Pep hasnt had a huge impact on Barcelona certainly doesnt know much about football. It is just the truth. Also, you or anyone else (including me) can all have teir opinions. That doesnt take away the fact our opinion can be terribly wrong!

Wrong! AVB, has a quite impressive number of trophies and acomplishments for a manager wirh 4 seasons. Just compare it with to any of the top manager's first 3-4 years of their career. So, by your standards, AVB is indeed a great manager. That is rather naive (to be polite). Both, Pep and Andre are great managers! AVB built that Porto team, so I dont see how you can use it as a negative argument to him. Also, he is doing a good job with Spurs and will obviously improve next season... About Pep, one that cant see the difference in Barcelona of 2008 and Tito's Barça to Guardiola's 2009-2012 team simply doesnt know anything about football. One can argue that he wouldnt win half of what he did if he had a 'normal' team, which I agree. You can also call him a coward or whatever for choosing this fantastic Bayern Minich squad. But to say he isnt a great manager is just insulting... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maybe you two are just being way too critical because you dont like them.

You dont messure quality by CV. You are acting just like Benitez, who has an impressive CV but is a bad coach in reality. Besides, AVB has a good CV for his age and experience! You only need to follow him closely to see he has a very good eye for talent, knows his tactics brilliantly and has drastically improved his man management and motivation. All qualities more than essential to a great manager. You may be confusing what I said. I never said the Portuguese was one of the best in the world, all I said is that he is a great coach (which is true). For instance, if we asked people to do a list of the top 10-15 managers in activity, AVB would make most people's list... Definitely a great manager, no doubt!

AVB is a great manager and I dont get those angry fanboys who cant see it. Just because he fail at Chelsea (and we got to admit the players didnt help either), it doesnt mean he is bad or all he's got is potential...

It is just my way of saying hi!

Shut up, dont even try to overrun MY meet-up. The cool people are already invited...

Now I am scared! But I will, most probably for the Newcastle home match on Feb 8th!!!! Want to meet? :eyebrows:

LOOOL! Mate, I am going to England in February. Is there any way we can meet there?

It doesnt matter, 5 stars rating only means you did everythig right, not that you have to win! A manager can do his job correctly, but that doesnt guarantee a win!
