You know what he means though, right? A manager can be cautious or bold, and each style has it's place. If you're going to get promoted from the Championship, it probably helps to be a bit more bold than cautious.
But nor do the sides we're facing. We've got more to bring in, but so do most...
Yes, that's basically what it means.
Wow, that's weird. No one said that aiming to get a draw in away games is the same as scoring an own goal to make sure you only get a draw. You can set up with the plan to get a draw, or you can set up to go for the win, whilst accepting that may make you...
You don't get the choice to win your home games and draw your away games, it's a cliche from football pundits to suggest what you should aim for. You should aim to win your home games regardless of your away games. And since you won't win all of your home games, you should be aiming to win some...

and I disagree with the fallacy that you only need to...
Well I'm a bit stressed having had to sit through the pain of listening to us on the radio, and a I'd have liked a win against a side that I don't think will do much this year. Obviously delighted to have won the first two games, so 7 points from 9 is fantastic. Not delighted to have drawn...
No I didn't. I can add, of course that would be good enough. But 'win at home, draw away' is a common cliche that is wrong, not because it wouldn't give you enough points mathematically, but because it suggests that draws away from home are enough, and they're not.
Indeed, I'm delighted with the...
