Completely agree, I've watched some of it in my time when in Moscow and when for a while I continued to watch some of it on channel 5 - but it's horrendous most of the time, the standard for 95% of their games would be lucky to reach our Div 1 or even the above the border northern pub league..
As AVB is leaving come the end of the season or sooner, I wonder where he'll turn up next?
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him in the PL again... :10:
He is a fake that was over promoted after having the only horse in a one horse town. I think even those who brought his whole clip board intellectual crap must be starting to see he is a bluffer. The luster is off the fad now and the returns will keep getting less. The bloke was never any better than a host of English first division coaches who with the squad he had at Porto would have matched what he achieved whilst playing better football. I honestly think Steve Mclaren is as good or better than this joker,

I could comment, but I can't be bothered.
Although I guess this is a comment. Darn it.

I actually rate Steve McClaren. Season before last he was the reason QPR were bossing according to everyone I know connected to them, left and took Derby to the playoffs from middle of nowhere while QPR dropped off badly. Obviously didn't do it last season but be interesting to see how he does with Newcastle.
As for AVB, people who try and take away from his achievements at Porto will find they don't know what they're talking about. He took a team who finished 3rd the season before he joined to an unbeatables season. You can't do that if you're clueless.
Perhaps he's ill suited to the premier league, or perhaps he's not a truly top class manager, on the flipside maybe he'd have made it work if given time/the players he needed it's impossible to know but he's nowhere near as bad as some of you make out. He's still only 37, who knows what he'll have achived by the time he's the same age as say McClaren (54) Koeman (52) or even Pochettino (43). In fact he's already won more silverware than 2 of the 3 and more European cups than all 3.

Love him or loathe him his record speaks for itself.
As for McClaren being better, do me a favour.
