Good grief. This post has a few of my all-time worst footballing cliches.
“imagine them having to work in an ICU!” - Why?
“blah blah blah Instagram and TikTok” - What has that got to do with ANYTHING? You do realise all players throughout history have had private lives outside of football, modern players are just more visible (through fan engagement, which we praise them for when times are good). Do you expect every player to shun their friends and families and just wallow in a pit of despair after every loss?
“PASHUN!” - Who cares if Keane was a passionate player? He’d be a crap manager! How would Dyche’s hoofball help the fact that our best midfielders are injured? Might get us a result or two in the short-term but if you’re suggesting he’d be better for us longer term that CA you’re a legit madman.
The vast majority of teams are struggling more at home this season. It’s mad to me how pundits and fans will marvel over the much-improved away records of X, Y and Z but not put that together with the dip in home form across the board, too. Increased regularity of games (and the injuries that come with that) and a complete lack of fans/atmosphere has been a huge equaliser.
