's "disagrees" are legendary, I think he's given me more kisses than anybody else
.As they are obviously a result of fat thumbs, we all have a laugh about it and he's good enough to remove them.
If I had my way, I would remove the disagree button altogether, as in some cases it just becomes contentious and/or petty. If you don't agree with someone then just state your POV and agree to disagree. The world would be a boring place if we all thought the same.
PS - fully expect for some clever dicks to say they couldn't help themselves and give me a kiss for this post!
I agree that it can be an unwise strategy in business, but 'my way or the highway' doesn't seem to have done Guardiola much harm in developing strategies and choosing players for his football teams, for quite a few years. Postecoglou seems to have mastered the art of 'Iron Fist in a Silk Glove' - which is perhaps a more acceptable way of describing him?
You really do like to tempt people, don't you? I resisted!

Brilliant!
If it weren't for The Sun's Graham Taylor 'Turnips', this would be Footie Headline Of All Time.
Yes it does.
Your two sentences are a direct contradiction of each other, revealing that you have absolutely no idea what your first sentence means.
...but then we should be applauding the fact that an Aussie can even type.

The follow-up "That's Yer Allotment" when he "hurled himself onto the compost heap" was pretty good too TBH.
It's worked everywhere he's been.
At any rate, he's not stupid. It's not like he would have rocked up on the first day and burnt bridges from the off. He's single-minded and unwavering in his approach, but also has a way of getting people on board considering his players always seem to want to run through walls for him. So clearly the balance is there.
I think a lot of it has to do with just being a decent person, honest and upfront with people and treating everyone fairly, which may sound overly simplistic, but can also be effective.
I think "my way or the highway" suggests to people conflict, but it doesn't necessarily have to go that way. If handled sensibly it can simply be a case of "this is the route we're going down and I'd love you to be part of that. If so, great. If not, you're free to explore other opportunities and if it's in the best interests of the club, we'll look to facilitate that". All perfectly reasonable IMO.
Always wondered how Bismarck would have done as a manager.
But, a point well taken by you. Thanks.
I remember when he linked and everyone was losing it I said in a post his doubters would end up liking him very quickly, but even I didn't think it would happen before the season started. Has to be one of the most captivating talkers in the game, can't help but be inspired. OUR manager.
That Aussie charm has certainly worked wonders , so far !
He carried a bit of a cough through most of the last season. People were worried about that too but it cleared up.
Seen pretty much every presser last 2 seasons and never heard the breathing thing. My guess is the mic was too close or not set up properly. Nothing more sinister.
Thanks. Probably just sinuses and, like you say, the way the mic was set up.
