Excellent battling performance ( BUT )

[StokieinSpain]

which we deservedly won against a very good side BUT what on earth possessed TP to play Huthy totally out of position at LB Having been on a spying mission he should have noted the speed and skill of their danger man but even if he was rested TP should have done his homework and as the lad has been with Chelsea and Barca he had to be a bit special even if he did not make the grade there

To make matters worse Huthy stayed way off him which is potentially suicidal because he either skins you or gets a foul ( to which Huthy is not averse ) or a pen near to or in the box IMO Huthy should have sat on him and clattered him (fairly) early on to test his resolve which Reidy and Strachan questioned on TV whilst acknowledging his skill

As for the question of TP managing a top club It would not work Fergie gets away with it because of his standing and reputation but TP's "bullying" tacics would not work with the highly ( over) paid "divas" (at the top clubs) who would not respect him

TP has it in him to be a very good manager if he can not be so stubborn arrogant and negative He rules by dictat rather than motivation and I just hope that he does not pee Huthy off so much that he becomes unsettled
