It would be easy to criticise a player who didn't play well, as Deeney did. But where does that leave every other player, fearful of making a mistake? Sometimes you have to say a player is injured when really there has been a fight in training or a player wants to leave, for example.

Management is about man management more than anything. If you're happy to throw players underneath a bus when you lose then you're not a very good manager. You pick the team, you pick the formation. If you're not happy with a player or a result, look at yourself first before throwing blame around. Problem with Deeney is he isn't able to do that, he'll publicly pick faults in others before himself - so he'll never make a good manager.

I wouldn't want a manager like that here. I remember us being linked with Roy Keane before CC came in. I genuinely want nothing to do with that type of character.

Totally agree. So many crap managers in the work place too who nick their reports glory or are clueless how to improve them or make them tick.

I hope Carlos looks in the mirror being selecting the team Sunday and selects Reach to be on the bench at best. He can easily say he’s carrying a knock or it’s tactical 😂
