I rate wellbeck. Sort of. He is a useful wcog because he plays the right options and works hard and stuff. A current-Rosicky type player who is never going to be great. And Cleverley is Arteta-ish, so I like him. Johnny Evans is decent (I know he's not English, but just on man Utd players) I don't like Smalling who seems to be a total liability every time I see him play. And I don't understand what Phil Jones is.
Wenger defends Hodgson:
Quote:
on half-time team talks...I have been aggressive at half-time, yes, but you have to adapt to the culture of your team. When you go to Japan, you have to be cautious, because what looks normal in an English dressing room, suddenly looks completely shocking in a Japanese dressing room. You adapt to the culture of where you are, but sometimes you can say one word stronger and that is not politically correct, and that can happen to any manager.
on the scrutiny...
The problem is that… people always want more and the cameras are everywhere. We would like to have a bit more confidentiality because we know we are a bit in danger in these situations. I can go out of a game and we have a penalty turned down in the last minute and you can go overboard in the corridor with the fourth official, and you wouldn't like a camera to be there. The demand to see more is always bigger, but who pays the price? Sometimes it is the manager.
There isn't a person in or following football with an ounce of common sense that wouldnt back Hodgson on this.
Unless they had an agenda.
Even the press seem to be finding it hard to make this one fly and find anyone who, excuse the phrase, gives a monkeys about it.
Tbf, Woy had been playing Star Fox 64 the night before:

Little bit infurating there wasn't a proper game save but brilliant anyway.
