Everybody is in a situation where it's hard to...
It's hard to look impressive.
I heard some people using this kind of lack of success in Middlesbrough or whatever against him, but it's not... It started well.
It did well initially.
But it's like... That's like saying Vincent Kompany shouldn't... Like, Vincent Kompany's had huge success now as he may well do the double with Bayern Munich after going down with Burnley.
Like, what...
So it's not exactly the same, you know, managers fit in to particular challenges at a particular time.
There are people in Real Madrid at the moment who sound like they're going to reappoint Jose Mourinho, which is maybe the maddest story of the day.
But maybe that's the scale of club that he needs or the style of club that he needs to be the old Jose Mourinho again.
But then, you know, he should have been a great fit at Arsenal and he wasn't.
Yeah.
The only thing that the post-Ferguson era has proved for Manchester United is that there's no right way of making the appointment.
Like they've hired the interim guy in Solskjaer.
They've gone for the, you know, Ranić sort of a profile.
They've gone for the Amram kind of a profile.
Moyes, the fellow who's doing well at a lower club and trying to transpose it.
And none of them has worked.
So, I mean, I don't even, it's hard to know what they're even thinking about this.
If it's not Carrick.
The one that I think is really interesting is Iriola.
