Pellegrini to Pep and Klopp to Rodgers are actually good examples of it working??
---------------------------------------------------------------------
So those pairings play the same tactics and style of play?

Not far off it. Rodgers and Klopp certainly.
With City it's more about what they did in the background before Pep arrived but it's the same principle.
Either way Id really like to revisit the Fred is as good as Fabinho chat. Cheers me right up.

I disagree. Fred just hasn't performed up to now where as Fabinho has fast become key to Liverpool
I'm more concerned that nobody has mentioned the article title in over 80 comments. Not very commom for on here.

Almost as though one is better at football really.
Maybe.
It could be the quality of those around him, his coaching, the confidence of Liverpool as a club right now.
If Jose and Pep are Interested you clearly have some ability.
Im genuinely at the point where I think City just mislead Utd.
No way that City make transfers like Laporte, Sane and Bernardo while Utd are signing Maguire, Fred and Sanchez.
you cant just make up a quiz if you dont have a real answer.

Name and shame
Do we really need a person to remind the board, the manager and the players that United like to play exciting, attacking football?
Do we really need someone to tell us what Managers are suitable for the club ?
Do we really need another scout?
If this was on the $pud board it'd be easy....

On the first two points, very obviously
It’s clearly the absolute biggest issue with the club at present.
Not a clue what scouting has to do with it. They’re completely different roles.

Seriously though. You didn't answer my earlier question.
Why do you think all these big clubs bother having sporting directors if they essentially dont really do very much.

Lots of them do admin stuff. Our fans are talking about identifying and signing players and dictating tactics and systems
A 'director of football' may well not be necessary - it is just a label anyway .......
..... but footballing direction really is a necessity.
Otherwise you end up with a set of clueless, directionless, ineffective tw@ts pretending to be a team

You can have the right football 'direction' and still sign wronguns. DOfs are only human. It's an opinion end of the day.
