Get subbed off and expect to be interviewed when all you want to do is stick the microphone up the manager's arse.
The interviewing of subs after they've just come off is ridiulous and completely uncessary. I like the idea of interviewing managers just after HT though and the dressing room broadcasts.
The subs interviews are going to get boring very quickly. They’ll all basically say nothing “I’m not sure, it happened really quickly and I’ve not seen a replay yet “ “Yeah the boys are still pushing. I’m confident if they keep going they’ll get another opportunity and next time they’ll score it” “It’s a little sore but we won’t know until later on after the game how bad it is” Half time interviews either managers could be interesting better though; I remember Alex Ferguson used to do them right at the end of HT in Champions League games
American sports stars, and Americans in general, seem to have inbuilt media training, able and willing to talk to reporters on-camera. The average English footballer would be unable to speculate on the state of the current game, or to pontificate on the style of play being used, beyond 'It was a game of two halves', and/or " We're going to stuff this lot"
Not at all interested in watching interviews with substituted players. I hope they spoil it by using expletives to explain how upset they are at being subbed off, or by giving monosyllabic answers.
