At least Gus, like him or not, had some interesting to say after most games. OG just comes out with the same old boring crap and doesn't even attempt to answer the questions. I realise that English isn't his first language, but come on, Oscar, show a bit of animation and passion. You could very easily fall asleep listening to him and I'm afraid the team seem to have taken to playing in exactly the same way.

Oscar Garcia has to be our most boring manager ever.

Why, did he say anything of interest?
What do you want him to say? Make excuses or blame the ref? I judge us on our performances on the pitch, I really couldn't care less whether his post match press conferences are 'entertaining' or not.

Who cares what he says after the games? I'd rather him than Poyet's histrionics. Unless you want Oscar to whinge about ceilings and ****ing off to play Golf.

It's very hard to dislike Garcia, as there is nothing to dislike about the guy. But it is also very hard to warm to him as well, as he shows all the passion of a goldfish. I must admit I thought Poyet was a total tosser and I haven't changed my mind at all. But I think if Garcia was to show a bit more passion, hopefully it might rub off on the pitch....Poyet and Garcia are the total opposite of each other in personality, but in football terms I don't see a lot of difference, although Garcia hasn't had the riches to spend that Poyet had.

What I find difficult to understand is how someone with limited English and a clear lack of character is meant to motivate a football team.

You're such a dick. You moaned and moaned about the things Gus said, and now we have a manager that has the sense to keep his mouth shut and not give anything away or say anything the press will jump on him for, and you're still not happy.
Moan about Oscar for his team selection, his tactics, his results, whatever. But moaning that his interviews aren't interesting enough? Get a life mate. His job is to win football matches, he isn't a TV personality. If I was him I'd do exactly the same, keep it as neutral as possible. He probably heard about all the bed wetting from poor sensitive Brighton fans after Gus dared to speak his mind, and so, sensibly, can't be arsed with the hassle.

Well if OG is boring, I generally like boring. There's been plenty of boring football from Albion in the last 20 years but not now. As usual one poor result and the boom mongers are out in force

He's not our manager, he's our coach.

Maybe the REAL point is that if OG is rather uninspiring in his media duties then it may well be that he is not particularly inspiring in the dressing room and perhaps that IS affecting our performances on the pitch?!
Perhaps you should ask the powers that be at Barcelona?
Of which you have absolutely no evidence for whatsoever. I'd say it's much more likely that OG is just a hell of a lot more media savvy than our last manager. And it wouldn't surprise me at all if he'd been specifically instructed to act in this way by the likes of Bloom and Barber, after the fiasco caused by our last manager speaking his mind too often.
Some people just need something to moan about. Last manger - too opinionated. This manager - not opinionated enough. Ridiculous.
This. And it should be only the football that matters, which is going OK under him. Not spectacular, but OK. And next season is the season to judge him on.
Pretty sure Forster Caskey said earlier in the week that he's the best man manager he's played under or words to that effect. Martinez at Everton never seems to say much in his post match interviews but it doesn't seem to affect them...
