Is that is why they dropped it then and why some people complained?
You didn't read my subsequent post then? And I didn't suggest that what happened in Cologne was like a Saturday night in Maidstone, but don't let that stop you.
Do players sign for clubs or for managers? Given the frequency that managers leave clubs there is a good chance that your contract will run longer than the manager will be at the club.
Nail on head. When the ball is lofted forward it is easier for the defenders to attack the ball. When the ball is pulled back it is easier for players (attackers) to run on to and is harder for the defenders as they have to turn. I played at CH for a number of years and used to love the ball being launched at me from the front as it was so easy to defend against.
Oh the ignamy of losing to Koeman who many here wanted out a couple of weeks ago! Seriously though it isn't losing at home to Southampton that upsets them. It is losing full stop. Maybe they could just about bear losing at home to a "top four" club but certainly not to any team below them.
