Watched the post-match analysis/reaction tonight on YouTube, and thought he was quite insightful and interesting to listen to tbf.
Thought it was quite noticeable how simple he put everything, but it all made sense. Whereas Neville in particular seemed to be over-complicating everything he said to make himself appear smart, even though it was actually %@#$&!s. Souness literally has no idea about anything. |

Wonder how many times he could say "it depends" until the rest worked out that he tweaked his approach based on whether the players he had at his disposal were actually smart enough to understand those basics? Nev was almost insistent that Jose sent teams out defensively, while he was trying to explain (as you say, simply) that it was dependent on whether he had a side that understood how to be compact & how to have some idea of where a move might break down / loss of posession and how to react. Was good stuff, but that doesn't work in a soundbite in the studio at HT. SKY just had him in as bait until the discussion. |

The dull line about attacking and getting caught being naive was a planned debate clearly to pander to Mourinho but he tried to emphasise that attacking teams still need to be coached to prepare well for transitions. It’s not about naivety it’s about being competent in your style. Hence him holding City in such high regard. |

I’ve heard (just made it up) that he’s holding out for the Saudi takeover because he’s their favourite to take us forward... |
