Look at last night taking Lampard off for Sheva with 3 mins to go and all they have to do is avoid concending another goal. I would have pissed my self when Sheva gave away that goal kick if Scousers had ended up scoring.
He knows fluck all!
If that's the case, Wenger doesn't knows what a ball looks like. How many times this season, especially in the big matches, we were leading and lost or drawn the match? How many times did Chelski lost or drawn after they've taken the lead? I bet it goes in Chelsea's favour.
I'm sorry fellas, but he is really underrated in england. All of grant's critics keep saying that chelsea is a team of big stars, but fail to mention that with that star status, there is a big ego as a "bonus". Grant is controlling this team, WITHOUT being a "high profile" manager, which makes his job even tougher.
A manager that gets this sort of group together and brings the club to new levels, without having the status other managers in england have, must know more than F*ck all.
Three Prem titles, five 2nd place finishes, four FA cups and another final, CL final, UEFA final, three times manager of the year and four charity shields says he does know what a ball looks like.
All i said was that IF grant knows nothing about keeping a lead by replacing Lampard for Sheva, THEN (only if that was true) Wenger wouldn't know what a ball looks like. You didn't mark the "if that's the case", just behind this sentence.
So was Drogba and Ballack against Manure proof of how he deals with egos???? The way he has treated Ben Tel Haim proof of how he deals with egos??? Bollox.
Fact is he has inherited a very good squad brought together by another manager. the team is run by Abramovich. He is a muppet and a puppet. Easily not the worst manager in the prem but not nearly good enough to be talked about in the same breath or even sentance as Wenger!
I never said he was as good as Wenger, all i said that All the top 4 managers respect him a lot.
Do you really believe Abramovich is choosing the team? that's just silly.
So you think that Sheva for Lampard was a good move to defend a lead? I don't hense the fact I think he knows fluck all....therefore that is the case therefore you don't think Wenger knows what a ball is!
I do believe Ambravoich has a major influence...how many other owners are always at the training ground? How many other owners visit the changing rooms?
Mourinho would not stand for it and would not play the way abramovich wanted so depsite having one of the worlds best he sacked him.
Average Gank might just make the top 10 managers in the prem, maybe.
I do not understand the Shevchenko substitution either
but I do not make my entire judgement of Grant based on it, not when Wenger has made some odd substitutions in the past too (I reckon it is his weakest area as a manager)
Does Abramovich choose the team?
I doubt he does this on a match by match basis but I really do reckon he pipes up his opinion a lot more than other owners.
