Haha, I guess we will have to wait for season 2 of Nerds FC where he took the reigns.

I guess he could always use the excuse that he is an analyst not a coach..

an analyst should be an out of work or retired manager, someone with a better understanding of coaching and performance. he usually poses more questions then answers

Eh, he'd do alright. I'm not sure if he has the right demeanor for coaching but he more or less has the knowledge.

Respect Ratice...

We insist in some States on playing eight and ten year olds on a full pitch, with some lucky to ever touch the ball, let alone actually develop skill! Juniors play for points, encouraging coaches to sacrifice learning for results. Skilful players are routinely discouraged to keep the ball and take risks by beating players and we are encouraged endemically to pass and run rather than take on a player. We are taught to value the passion in effort, rather than the artistry in skill, a long ball and powerful shot over brilliant individual skill or an insightful pass.

So was Ferenc Puskas wrong when he said: “The ball should be moved early, preferably on first contact. To run with it is often only to waste valuable attacking time”...?

He's an analyst? Wow.. I mean, I know that's what his job title says - Chief Analyst, but he publicly admitted to not watching the EPL after the United/AC game. Awesome career move =d>

Foster is a tv pundit, and a poor one at that. In a true footballing country they wouldn't let him drive the team coach, let alone coach a real team. Australia lost 7-0 to Croatia in 1997, and without Foster playing I reckon it may only have been five or six nil.

You would no doubt be refering to [size=7]Andrew[/size] " Italian football could be run by Usama Bin Laden & Charles Manson, played in a gutter amidst pimps & whores But would still be far better than any of the British tripe" [size=7]Orsatti[/size].

P.s Foster can talk sense.

I actually saw the dude with the mono-brow at an event yesterday, should've asked for an autograph :)

When is that second season supposed to be starting up anyways? I saw ads for that ages ago I'm sure, but haven't heard anything about it in a while.
