[Albion] Roberto De Zerbi - JOINS AS NEW HEAD COACH (4 year contract)

[Milano]

Italian coach and staff……mates with Pep. I can’t wait for us to start diving, time wasting, feigning injury, niggly fouls and general twatishness. I can’t wait.

Careful, certain people will get upset with that generalization of our Italian friends.

I know, it’s like not everything posted on an Internet forum is totally serious……

Not sure if posted before, but this is a fascinating piece about De Zerbi. He would certainly make an interesting appointment!

Interesting, but my main conclusion from that is the writer fancies himself as far more of a literary talent than he actually is.

Get him in, new manager bounce.
Boing, said De Zerbi.

He doesn’t come across as a typical Italian coach. Rather than a coach focusing on defence he plays a possession based, higher risk game looking to beat the press with passing. He’s been criticised in Italy for taking too many risks.

I enjoyed it.

I ended up skipping a load of his literary triple. 8 pages in before he even mentioned RDZ. Even then he was trying to turn the football descriptions into a literary work of Shakespeare.

Came across more like a Disney script writer.

Still, I get that he plays nice possession based football.

Christ, yes, that was a tedious read (Well, the bits I read).

Not getting the credit it deserves

A Scotch football fan obsessed with an Italian football manager. We’ve already got a Swede football fan obsessed with an English football manager! I think that’s enough!

Absolutely. The pride of authorship has got the better of him.

He was mostly writing about himself anyway. It was quite a way in before I found anything about De Zerbi.

The article would benefit by being reduced by a good 90%. Less is more.

I must say that when I first head his name these were the first things that came to mind.
Ant like Dr Who enemies that weren't scary at all. I wanted one as a pet aged about 7.

We're they the same ants that terrified Sarah Jane into a near swoon? Or maybe that was the giant maggots.

Lol. Yes - a bit of a self-indulgent 'long read'. Bascically you don't need to start reading it until half way through the article!
