Southgate - great guy, inspirational captain, now an inspirational manager. We gave him a job that was simply too much at the time. HE hadn't even been training a youth team let alone a prem team.
Strachan - awful abrasive character. Had a great reputation for building good teams but he got it horribly wrong. The only saving grace was he failed fast and we got him out the door fast.
Pulis - boring anti-football, yes, but it was effective. Taught me that our fans want entertainment maybe more than success.
Monk - snide, self serving and loathsome. Had no dedication to this club. It was all me, me, me with him. Not half as tactically astute as he tried to claim.
Wilder - similar to Monk, believes his own hype as a tactical genius. He is a decent manager when he has the perfect players, but lacks the ability to make something from nothing. Again, his character isn't one to warm to, it's a veneer of intellect, but a vaccuum behind it. Lacks the moral fibre you expect from a manager, similar to Monk in that way. I think both are on the sociopathic spectrum to be honest, wilder a lot lower.
Mogga - great captain, tried for us under difficult circumstances, there's a little rose tinted glasses around his time as amanger it was generally poor, but it was like someone trying to make a model of the sydney harbour bridge with pasta shapes, it was gonna look rough and crumble under pressure.
Karanka - great guy, professionalised our approach to games, the pressure got to him, but that's what makes him a loveable guy, he is human, he cared, he wanted it to work.
Woody - too much too soon, bad time to come in
Warnock - nice enough character, despite his Boris comments, just antiquated in his approach to football. All a bit basic and obvious and 1992 football.
