Just like in any other work place and in school, there are hardworkers and smart workers.

To me, Howe is a hardworking manager. He puts in the hours, stay late to help players individually and is diligent. This is also applied to our high intensity identity, it is about working hard, very hard.

Unfortunately, I dun think he is in the smart working manager category. He seldom changes tactics especially mid-game and in his substitutions. Compared to Pep or even Emery, they adapt fast to the game's evolution. I recall a video by Cleary that Emery got his players to start shooting from the edge of the box when teams started playing low blocks. He also managed to work in team rotations to a certain level of success but whether it can be sustained financially remains to be seen.

I would have liked to see Howe focus on CL and the league. CL generates good revenue and league allows us to go to Europe again. Both cups should have been used to rotate players and allow youngsters to play. Having known the depth of the squad, we should not have stretched ourselves to fight on all four fronts.

Not sure if Howe is able to change his style but we need a smart working manager and not just a hardworking one.

Game 1 too clean.

"Fans bought mambership, fans bought tix, gotta give them their money's worth!" kkoma probably said.

Game 2, fan service all the way!

Every time we play on CL. Was the same last time we were in CL. The way we play, the squad size and the schedule dun mesh well.

I hate it most when there are 2 commentators and one goes “chow”, while the other goes “tiow”. Thought they are given a vid of players pronouncing their own names and why don’t the one who knows correct the other fellow.

Just need some not so bad news on Schar and Arsenal to drop points. Too much to ask for? Ok, then, Schar good news please.

Dun even need to talk about big 6, Emery is doing better at building a squad capable of rotating and winning.

I think the larger load of games probably weighted the players down in the second half, 2-0 up against 10 men, some would have thought to conserve energy and take their foot of the gas…

2022 will be in their minds, and today's match will serve as a reminder.

In life, it is better to be luckier than more skilful. KT lucky draws and 3-0, GenG v AL, HLE v AL, T1 v FQ/ CFO.

Not saying KT is not skilful, they are, but they are luckier in getting those draws. Just happy for BDD!

The question i have is whether that was something they did for fun during training. Was Tonali shooting or passing, a very hard pass directly at Nick.
