Qwiss I don’t know. Even Klopp who is a big character is part of the problem. His team was the biggest user of data. Everything from recruiting, training, how much time they play, how they press, etc.

Qwiss

Claudius they didn't control as much though. More direct than the likes of City, us, etc Slot seems to be taking more into a similar mould to us.

Looks like it's actually getting worse too with all these mid block cunts popping up all over the place making the game as passive as possible.

I watched Australia lose to Bahrain in a World Cup qualifier last night. God I hate the way our team "plays". We have very few players who know how to control a ball and pass it so that one of their team mates receives it in a good position. Our coach Graham Arnold doesn't help matters. Can't wait until he's gone.

Also one or two of the Bahrainis were the worst divers and cry babies ever seen. I really wish referees would give some of these jokers a yellow card.

Does anyone watch/listen to the Podcast called The Overlap? Even though its 2 United (G Neville and Keane) and Liverpool player (Carragher) and Wrighty, i find it to be pretty good most of the time. I enjoy Keane & Wrighty's interaction..

USArsenal listened to the Vieira episode, which was wonderful but haven't really bothered outside of that one.

Qwiss

USArsenal Keane and Wright steal the show. Carra is less annoying than he is on TV, Neville still annoys the crap out of me though. And Jill Scott is a massive try hard. Should have Alex Scott or Karen Carney, they're more natural and likeable ex-pros IMO.

USArsenal Just watched the Vieira episode. Excellent. Loved that he said his management style is most alike Arsene.

Not surprisingly also he named Diaby as the biggest talent that played like him. In fact he said Diaby was going to be an even better player than him, had everything but unfortunately Smith that cunt killed his career before he even got going. Wenger and many other players also said Diaby was unbelievably good.

USArsenal

I didn't think i would like it since im not a fan of Neville or Carra, but their interplay with Keane and Wright (and their guests) is pretty funny most of the time. I only recently started watching it.

USArsenal

Qwiss Oh, the bromance with Wrighty and Keane is hilarious. I find myself liking their interplay. And ugh, yeah, Jill Scott is cringe when she's on. Carra is ok.. Neville is still Neville, but i like how Keane gives him shit about getting beat at RB all the time. lol.

Dom

I watched the one with Vieira and you could sense Neville and Keane being sheepish and clenching their backsides in fear.

Qwiss

Dom agree though it seems Vieira respects Keane, seemed to have no respect for Neville.

USArsenal

Love it. Binged it all weekend.

MistaT

Amy other good episodes/guests?

Mirth

MistaT the Rafa Benitez episode is decent

Qwiss

He's taking his cue from Keane who has a dig at Neville every other second.

Dom

Qwiss

I get the feeling, though, that Keane doesn't respect Vieira. He's such a bitter person.

Sicario2

It’s a good show but way too Man Utd heavy. Every other week it appears an old team mate or Neville/Keane is on!

There’s only so much old Fergie tales you can listen to!

My main football podcasts are to do with Fantasy football (FPL). Playing that is like a second job I swear!

Who also said that he didn't allow Xabi Alonso to leave when he had an agreement with Arsenal. Which pours cold water all over the idea that Wenger cheapen out on him.

Clrnc

He didn't actually said that, he said he forced Xabi to play in the UCL which will make him cup tied. Xabi initially didn't want to as he wants to move to Arsenal and had a personal agreement, but Benitez convinced him that he needs him for that match against Standard Liege which Liverpool needs to qualify from.

He was then cup tied and then he didn't move to Arsenal, maybe for that reason or maybe Wenger tried to cut the price down since he's cup tied.

MistaT

Wenger arguing about price because someone is cup tied feels very on brand

Qwiss

Dom Keane hates everyone, he'll be feuding with Wrighty in a few years.
