I found this bit funny:
"[Daniel] Levy had an easy explanation: 'No, the thing is, the coach doesn't get it, the players are hungry, they don't eat,
I just get the image of Thudd driving straight to Mcdonalds after training as a result of being starved by Juande. After all:
"We trained not far from a McDonald's and we'd see them in there eating hamburgers"
I'll be at the Dnipro game (1882 as well) I'll give him a cheer, the c*** did win us a trophy.
Maybe a bit of "Juande give us a wave, Jaunde Juande give us a wave"
That was one of the criticisms at the time iirc. The players had to eat at a certain time, no pre-match meal etc on the day apart from some liquefied concoction and apparently there were complaints of hunger pains. It did sound like things were over the top, though easy to say that when we were losing games.
