RobRoyal Not really
I've got a real uppity funk on about Rodgers' comments after the game. Doesn't take satisfaction from beating Reading, he says. They gave me my chance, but he just didn't bring what was needed there. "Someone coming in trying to pass the ball, you know, playing attractive attacking football with tactical discipline ... my way of working just didn't suit at that time."
Well, ok, it's a bit and there is some truth in it.
But it's a massive slight to McDermott who played some wonderful football with the same players last year, and again on occasion this year. Swansea play great football but there's more than one way to skin a cat. He's claiming a monopoly on attractive attacking football and it's rubbish. He sounds an arrogant egotistical fool. Again.
We scored 8 more goals than you this season Brendan.

This probably sums Mr Marmite up rather well. He obviously has something, his team ran rings around us for most of the game yesterday but as I said on another thread he must have blarnied his way into another job after modest short term success with Watford and abject short term failure with Reading.
Can't say as he is my cup of tea. Love the football that his team have played this season, but he arrogantly tried to change too much too soon at Reading - are you really expecting to be able to get Kalifa Cisse playing carpet football just because you laid the cones out at Cobham? - and sound of his soundbites got very tiresome as the team failed week in week out. I don't think he handles the media at all well, as proven by his hopeless handling of the Tommy Smith transfer. And boasting about giving Kevin Doyle a presentation on your 'methodology' before he was flogged to Wolves; fancy yaself don'tcha?
I don't wish him any ill-will, but I don't like people who speak in management-cliches, thinking-outside-the-box-blue-sky-thinking bullsh*t.

If you still hate Futcher I don't really understand why people keep harping on about what a good footballing team Swansea are - in truth they aren't that different to us really except we're more direct.
