Mourinho is Trump, except Mourinho speaks five languages, whereas Trump can't even manage to speak one properly. 2016's big three grand follies were Jose Trump, Donald Trump and Brexit. |

I find his writing style dreadful and inarticulate. It doesn't help that I have no interest in Manchester United or Mourinho, apart from the amusing fall out on here! Maybe if I had an interest I would have got through more!

I always hope that bad writers, who are making a living from it, will prove me wrong.

Early is a superb writer. If you're looking for an example of this, read his match report from the Wales v Ireland game in October 2017. It's not a match report, it's a work of art.

It is clearly subjective then. He isn't for me.

Remember his piece in the independent, where he constantly spelt Falcao incorrectly, the same way as he did on this forum for years.

I couldn't read anymore after the bullsh*t intellectualisation of a bleedin manager getting the sack. Serious self indulgent bollox.

I like Ken Early's articles usually, and not having read this one though I can relate to TJ's point as well from previous pieces he has done

Football managers are no longer mere people.
With the decline of religion, they are now our secular Gods. We invest them with all sorts of powers, we invest irrational belief in them. They are our messiahs, and when they prove to be false messiahs, we crucify them. The power and the trust we bestow on them is emblematic of the increasing sense of powerlessness that people in society feel. Man has always searched for meaning, and hundreds of thousands of years of human evolution have led us to the ultimate search for meaning - the football manager soap opera. The interviews, the press conferences, the rolled down car windows where we desperately hope our chosen one will reveal an exciting new possible transfer target, the tweets from unofficial "in the know" sources that a manager is about to sign a brilliant new player you've never heard of, the barbs, the mind games, the refusal to shake hands with another manager at the end of a game, the annoyed look on a manager's face after a handshake, the search for thinly veiled discord between manager and star player. Football managers are the opium of the people. Edited by sid waddell - 19 Dec 2018 at 3:31pm |
