So he'll make three early substitutions if we start badly? Suspect it doesn't really mean this.

I get what he is trying to say, if we start with the right tempo and attitude you can tell its going to be ok. Sometimes this just doesn't seem to happen for some reason, like Gent away, and you know it early doors. I don't suppose you can do anything before half time to try and sort it though.

If you watch the Video of his Press conference on BBC it is not actually what he said or even implied. He actually said that within 50 seconds you can see whether or not you are set up right.

Can't believe a member of the esteemed press would take what was said and bastardise to fit into a story, and especially not the Star.

When we were kids we used to wipe our bums on the Daily Star until my dad realised that we were wiping more shit on than we were off.

The problem is with bollocks like this, is that there are always people who'll believe it.
