The Manager Merry-go-Round

[FAITH]

Conte also said earlier on Friday that he was "starting to be a bit annoyed" with Mourinho continuing to talk about him and his club, and that: "If you want to go to fight with me I am ready."

Mou's response to it in this mornings post match presser was actually pretty good. Basically just denied that he was ever having a dig at Conte with his "clown" comments and said that they both deserve an apology from the sensationalists who are trying to manufacture a shit storm here.

He then went on and had a crack at Conte for match fixing which was pretty poor IMO

All the old British managers have jobs at the moment. Stoke left it too late.

Clement?

Why would Conte bother getting involved with Mou, theres only one place it ends and thats the gutter. Silly man.

 

[Zidane98]

Don't understand why Mou gets in unnecessry shitfights with other managers.

Its all part of his 'game'. Wants to get in their heads.

I am enjoying it. The only time a Chelsea manager will get support from Arsenal fans.

 

[Latro]

Clement?

Well he is not old and English.

He's English.

 

[Donnie Darko]

grim choices for Stoke..
no way would Tuchel take the job .

 

[DBAH0]

Really hope that Stoke keep Hughes, they'll be guaranteed for relegation then.

 

[Latro]

Please give it to Giggs.

 

[RossFC]

What's Koeman doing?

 

[DBAH0]

What's Koeman doing?

Probably still holding out for the Barcelona job.

 

[RossFC]

Mark Hughes apparently has been sacked.

 

[DBAH0]

Boooooo.

 

[kreglze]

Please give it to Ryan 'I am too good for lower leagues' Giggs.

I'll miss these sorts of quotes from good ol Sparky.

Before Stoke announced his departure, Hughes had cut a defiant figure, insisting the defeat was a blessing in disguise, arguing Stoke would now be able to concentrate on their fight against relegation. Charlie Adam equalised with a second-half penalty after Willis had opened the scoring but, despite a late rally, Stoke were dumped out.

“Has the situation changed markedly from this afternoon? I don’t think it has,” Hughes said. “It just highlights we need to do better. You would have thought the team we put out had enough about it to win here.

“It clearly gave the indication we were taking the tie seriously. It was an important match for us and we wanted to win it and to get confidence from it but we haven’t. That’s a downer, clearly.”

[Jatz]

The irony in that comment. Barton made teams progressively worse when he played with them.

 

[Zidane98]

Stoke need Pulis back.

 

[ossie_21]

Hughes has been nothing but a fraud, it makes me happy to see him fail though

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Sad face. I’ll miss sparky.

Conte is showing himself to be as bad as Jose I’m afraid - or least nearly as bad. Definitely letting himself down in all this.

Jose is another level though really. He’s got beef with every manager in the top six except Poch I believe. You can’t carry on like that
