I have read stories about players (generally) who were too thick to be coachable at the top level.
ETH’s tactics don’t actually look that complicated though, certainly not in a Guardiola sense, so I find it difficult to believe that player comprehension is the issue. They just don’t give a shit and know they’ll see another manager off if they do the bare minimum. |

In terms of how they come across in interviews:
Most intelligent: Bruno and Rashford by miles Thickest: Shaw (comfortably, only exceeded in modern football by Grealish), with honourable mentions to AWB and Scott. In terms of 'football brain' Most intelligent: er...probably Bruno. He makes a lot of wrong choices, but probably most the most right ones. Thickest: Dalot, Anthony, Rashford. Seem to almost never make the right decision. Rashford either tries to go it alone every time he gets it or tries to pass it every time he gets it (if he was moaned about for being greedy in the previous game). Also he basically @#%&!s every shot, no finesse. |

Bruno’s football IQ is somewhere between elite and Hatam Ben Arfa depending on the game. His whinging & toys out of the pram sulking is like a returning Ronaldo. You either make it happen or you contribute at every turn to it always being someone else’s fault.
There’s no one in the current squad with anything like an elite level of football IQ, not one of them can control a game, calm it down or speed it up to punish a side over stretching the way even a Carrick used to for us, let alone Scholes. Casemiro is the one recognised head in the middle of the park and he seems to have just decided that everyone else around him is a #@&%! and running himself into the ground is for schmucks so dives in far too often. You need at least 4-5 proper players to implement a game plan, ETH seems to have a few but they’re either never on the park at the same time or they’re throwing their toys out of the pram. Can anyone explain the Varane situation? Is he just out of favour as he’s made of biscuits? |

We were so spoilt He had amazing talent but he wasn’t Ronaldo. Unfairly judged. |
