Outstanding management is playing attacking, exciting and winning football at all times.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2024 9:05 am Tactical masterclass last night when you think about it.
As Gareth said, it was a complex game where the Dutch changed their shape and style about 4 times during that second half and he responded. That's the crux of what people dont understand when they talk about good or bad managers. They see the team they've picked and how that team performs, not the technical elements that make or break a manager. We dominated the first half and then they stifled us. He changed it to ensure we didnt get beaten. Despite Lee Dixon bleating on about subs every game, he waited until the opportune moment to put not the right players at the right time and they combined to score the winner. Outstanding management.

For me negative, boing possession is not attractive to watch under any circumstances. Thats the the why although I desperately want England to win the Euros I refuse to watch a single match and that will include the Final.
