Hate is a strong word .
Whilst some might get on my nerves I don't hate any .
And Ray Parlour always comes across as a genuine Gentleman.

That's what Brazil want though isn't it. I've mentioned it before but the way they went out against Croatia last World Cup was ridiculous. They were so much better than them, went ahead but just refused to be pragmatic after that, got caught with loads of men up the pitch and conceded an equaliser on the counter then lost on pens. I know obviously lots of teams including England have lost to Croatia but that Brazil one was so avoidable it was laughable.Ancelotti is obviously a great manager but it’s clear he doesn’t actually coach defensive shapes or instructions.

Relationism, innit. Very popular in Brazilian domestic football and Ancelotti, despite not being Brazilian, has been heavily influenced by it and is one of the few elite European managers to subscribe to that philosophy (almost every other European coach subscribes to positionism). It makes sense that Ancelotti is the head coach of Brazil because their philosophies are aligned. Ancelotti has always built teams around mercurial players and pretty much just gives them the freedom to do what they want on the pitch. He’s the opposite of Guardiola in a way.

More like smart arse stupid sayings to make people appear more intelligent.
Absolute nonsense
Mocking things because you don’t understand them is a sign of low intelligence.
I have some spare crayons if you’re hungry.
Can't remember which game it was but a couple of nights ago, the commentator was remarking on summat then said "or the first quarter now we have to call it"
****s.
