Popular Post! The Chels 2,502 Posted May 7, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted May 7, 2014 The City match on now just shows the importance of offensively adept full-backs in breaking down stubborn defences; and for as long as Mourinho continues to play Ivanovic at RB and Azpi at LB we will likely continue to struggle in this department.

Their third-choice striker has scored as many as our top scoring striker. Jovetic (4th choice) is one goal behind Torres despite starting TWO league games.And despite all that, we took 6 points off this lot...one of them with a goal from Ivanovic.

Maybe we'll push on and get Shaw if we can ship on some of the fringe players, but Man City's strikers cost £110 million. We might need two so that's at least £50 million.We won't win the league without new strikers. We can probably win the league with Ivanovic and Azpi as full-backs.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Madrid just also bottled the league, so that is 4 points lost in 2 games they should win. So Carlo is not really some amazing magician as some claimed out to be, yes he is a great manager like Jose and Pep and Klopp...etc but no where near the God like type some are portraying him. Also funnily enough Madrid could also end this season with just Copa and that means they will have just as bad of a season as us considering they spent like £100m more.

Just stating that we can't say Ancelotti has had a bad season when he has just fallen short of the league (it looks like) and has won our equivalent of the FA Cup and still might win the UCL which would cap a fantastic season.

But then again we weren't far away from glory this season in what some called a disasterI was refering to 'MrBlueGuy'. But yes we were very close to glory but have fallen short which is dissapointing. Next season we will have a trophy for sure but by no means a disaster.

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Football managers to take part in Question Time style debates live on TVTop Premier League managers are among those who have agreed to take part in programmes in front of live audiences on Sky, BT Sport and BBCFootball managers from all four divisions of the English leagues have agreed to take part in a new series of ground-breaking “Question Time” style debates which will be broadcast live. The programmes are the brain-child of Richard Bevan, the chief executive of the League Managers Association, who has been in talks with BBC radio, Sky Sports and BT Sport to air the debates which will take place before a studio audience.The exact details and format of the programmes have yet to be finalised but the first broadcast could take place as early as the end of this month with a whole series then planned for next season.Bevan has been encouraged by the response of the managers – including some of the biggest names in the Premier League – and will also turn to former managers and those out-of-work who are looking for opportunities to get back into the game.The programmes will basically be modelled along the lines of BBC’s long-running ‘Question Time’ show, which is hosted by David Dimbleby, in which politicians from all the parties debate the big issues of the day and field questions from the audience.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/10815740/Football-managers-to-take-part-in-Question-Time-style-debates-live-on-TV.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
