Every manager moans about fixture congestion and how there is too many games? Are they all wrong?
Those aren't the only two options, though.
I'm sure that most managers would like one game a week, so that they could prepare fully for it.
Get the training right, practice set-pieces, tweak the tactics for their opponent and rest the players.
Should we cut it down to that extent?
The best managers at the wealthiest clubs have massive squads to deal with their fixture congestion.
Quite a lot of them still can't handle it and whine like bitches when they lose.
They fail to rotate, get injuries because of it and then blame the fixtures, rather than their own failure.
They have 25-man squads, plus some expensively assembled academy teams to pick from.
If they can't handle 60 games, some of which are close together, then they can quit.
Internationals can **** this up a bit, as you can't control what another manager will do with his players.
I see far too many top coaches failing to utilise their squad well, though.
