    Must have learnt his wing play form Jesse<laugh>. I just watched them on tv and the football looked 'functional'.

    Some guy called Ellandback thinks it's a formality. And he has insider access to all kinds of AI platforms.

    On Corberan he took a skint Huddersfield Town from nailed on relegation and saved them, then took them to the play offs before walking away. He was then asked to save a skint WBA and he did the same and then took them to the play offs before walking away. FARKE has had the 2nd most valued squad in his first season and failed to get promotion beaten 3 times by Southampton. Last season he had the highest valued squad and did win promotion as he should. Corberan did a great job in Spain getting them to midtable taking points off Barcelona and Real Madrid. Struggling this season but has a depleted squad and by all accounts not happy

    and he's always active on the touchline like most good coaches are, not stood there like a dummy with his chin buried in his coat!
    Players react to a passionate coach.

    No if he feels he has done everything he can with what he’s been given and is getting no more then he says ok I’m done and thanks. He is getting upset in Valencia as they sold players he developed and not really replaced them. For those who say he is boring and we s aw that not long ago when he was at WBA and we went down there and he stopped us playing and made FARKE scared to go for it and it ended up as the worst bore draw ever.

    However the truth is he sets his team up to nullify whichever team is up next and can move formations in the game:

    About four times in last 50 we’ve been improved by employing a new manager. Armfirld, Wilko, o Leary and Bielsa. Let’s see if this next one will be n improvement or another step back

    Well my hope of Roberto Mancini taking the job has flopped as hes now changed his mind is flying to Doha in the morning to take over at Al Saad. He was due to fly Sunday but with the Leeds job maybe on offer he cancelled but obviously Marathe never rang him so he’s off now <laugh>
