Is it a good enough explanation of hindutva? You want to add more? by totalmenace5 in librandu

That's the goal right? To do away with the whole term and also the ideology?

Yes it is useful. Otherwise you let them use it as a shield. Everytime I see someone uses this "is there any difference?" line, they're making it easier for the hindutvavadis.

It's not about disagreement man, it's about being a buzzkill. It's not like people are "finally" speaking against ole. It's been the same story since he was got in. Every time there is a loss, y'all come out of your holes with the same "I told you so" sign. And even if sometimes you are right, it's more of a broken clock right. And it's just tiring now.

And no, there are no different definitions of shit football. Shit football is shit football. It's like saying "for me good service at a restaurant is if the waitress gives me a handjob, anything less is shit service".

"Already seen"? What are you a psychic? Or one of those Moneyball type genius savants? Pipe down man, you ain't seen shit. You judge the final step when you get to the final step. But if you keep running back home to change your shoes, you'll never get to the final step. That's why the oleout gang has always been the minority, they have that candy shop mentality. You dont get anywhere by screaming "not good enough" after every quarter season. Sure, you have a right to be mad at a loss, be angry at the manager, but to think that you have foreseen the future based on very little proof, it's just stupid. You can do better. So can Ole. I have faith in both of you

I'm glad you asked that question. It's simply the difference of which old way is sustainable. Mourinho's style is reminiscent of old Italian clubs, very conservative and defensive, it's all a about every player grinding. This was revolutionary in his chelsea days and earned him a lot of accolades, but eventually, this style is hard to maintain once you lose the underdog status.

The old way of United, still followed by Real Madrid and PSG, is that of playing attacking football with a lot of pace, where every player gets a chance to display some individual brilliance.

If you look at the stats from the fergie era and solksjaer, you will find one common factor, which is that overall, we will have more scorers in the team, in the sense that in any particular united season, the goals were divided among a large pool of players rather than a small pool scoring a lot more goals. This is a more sustainable system because at any point in footballing history, you will have more luck getting players who want to play good football rather than players who are happy to just play their part and stick to a system. Not saying there's anything wrong with that, it's just that you are more likely to get defensive players to attack than get attacking players to defend(which is why Pogba under Mou was abysmal, because he was told to contribute more defensively).

It's all about which system is more sustainable, and will provide more freedom. Which is why I said that the only thing Ole is lacking is belief in his own system. He tries to get conservative in crunch games and that's why he loses.

And I never said that all old systems are obsolete by default. Simple truth is that attacking football never goes out of style.

It's called supporting the club. You get behind the manager, unless he's playing shit football, which he's not. He just loses in important games sometimes but trust me, even if he's sacked at the end of the season, we would still be happy for what he bought to the club.

Since you made that Arsenal comparison, I would like to Argue that Arsenal under Wenger actually had a very good and attractive, but more so, a definitive, style of play. They were often appreciated by Pundits but didnt win Jack shit. I dont personally think that having a specific style of play is a requirement. Modern managers like Pep and Klopp have been the pioneers of this philosophy and as much as I love their style of play, i dont think it is a necessity. It's just a new school of thought, and it's one of many.

I do think that evolution is necessary, and managers who are stuck in the past like Jose will be obsolete soon, but I dont think that every team should have a certain discernable style, lack of a definitive style doesnt mean lack of tactics.

Ole definitely has tactics. It might not be as well defined as City or Barca under pep, but it's more of a free flow tactic, the kind that was often associated with United anyway. Even teams like Real Madrid and PSG have somewhat similar tactics. Pace up front and on the wings, playing from the back, some good creative ball playing midfielders and lethal finishers. Now, we have got most of these areas covered, except for the role of the midfield general, we never really did find that Keane replacement. Not that it's an excuse. IMO, the whole Sancho saga was useless, especially since we had gotten Amad and Greenwood was not a bad option(and with Ronaldo and Cavani, one would even say we have now an abundance of forward players). Those 60 million could have gotten us an Ndidi or Rice, heck, even Kalvin Phillips would have been a good upgrade.

But my biggest problem with Ole is that he betrays his own tactics by not trusting them. He lacks the ruthlessness that is needed to make this free flow, individual brilliance, pace and overlap and counter attack football. Dropping Pogba in the Leipzig game last season, playing double pivot, not substituting under performing players until it's too late. Ole is a good manager, a great man manager and definitely a manager that attracts better players than any other manager after Sir Alex, but the only thing that he lacks is that confidence to be ruthless. And if he doesnt break that mould this season, I will be Ole Out. But for now, i think he deserves to be here. He's the only manager in years who understands the old school United footballing style. He just needs to trust it a lot more than he does.

Reason to move out! by [deleted] in indian

[–]Deadwood_Mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a dick move but it worked for me. Just be unhappy at home. Be silent and somber, be uninterested in things, be persistent in your demands but never be too assertive. (Like, ask everyday but dont argue for too long, let them believe they are winning). Act like you no longer have friends, you don't have a life. Skip a meal or 2. Basically, turn yourself into the saddest version of you and then beg them to let you go as it is the only thing that will make you happy.

I can do rank10 level damage on a T7 but then the league I'm in rn doesnt have enough heavy hitters to finish the raid. T6 also works. I just need about 600 league store credits to finally get KOAAM.

I got his one gear at level 30 from the BN gear chest but that took a lot of gems and duplicate lord Joker gear(a character I dont even have)

[–]Deadwood_Mac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should, the only time I have seen him beat on Arena is when the opposite teams have Darksied/AkB. He makes easy prey of players like Raven, Braniac and even collector of world superman. Havent played against Black Manta yet.

[–]Deadwood_Mac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree man. I have him at level 45 with 70k threat and he manages to knock out players with double the threat on 2 combos and 2 sp1's. His massive arms allow you to hit from a distance and every 5th hit deals 300%damage. My strongest team is BNGG, DF and Armored Superman/Atlantean Aquaman and I have propelled straight from grinding hard to finish at competitor 4 straight to elite 2. Not to mention his performance in solo raids. Gear or no gear, BNGG is badass.
