And that’s the other thing, when managers start banging on about need x,y,z number of windows…
To me, it always sounds like their playing “Championship Manager”, can’t be bothered to “manage” the players they already have, need to “buy” players that suit their vision… it always sounds like an excuse to me, like they’re laying the groundwork for failure…
“Yes, I know I’ve been here 4 seasons and had 8 transfer windows, during which I bought 23 players (unless it’s Jammy Todgers in which case ‘during which I only bought 172 players), but the chairman didn’t give me enough time to buy enough players…”
Remember when managers used to manage? 🙂
I know the Pool fans will be all over Arne for “Manager of the Year”, but I have to give it to Nuno at Forest, took a bundled up miss-match of a squad, and turned it into a bloody good team, as the table clearly reflects… that’s a manager!
