Delusional.

"I am not just a pundit who has never managed a club - I have managed in the Premier League and all four English professional divisions, so no-one can say I don't know what I am talking about here."

Looking at his record at some of those clubs (win percentage at Blackburn and Blackpool of 28.6 percent), I think they can.

Paul, you also thought your son Tom should have played for England.

This from a man who gave himself the title "The Guvnor".

Pompous idiot who was a decent player but should have found a career away from football on his retirement. I’m not a big fan of pundits and he is one of the reasons.

I thought this thread was going to be about Gazza's controversial Instagram post.

I really hope the PC brigade don't jump on this. It's a bloke who is and has been mentally unwell for some time attempting to make a clumsy joke.

I'm no big Paul Ince fan, but l do to an extent see what he was getting at.

In the Mourinho era the players seemed to be 'over coached' if there is such a term, and in many cases being played out of position and asked to do jobs that that were outside of their comfort zone, and not what they were used to doing.

United were, and are again, a team at their best when allowed to be let off the leash, and play free flowing, attacking football. It doesn't, as Ince points out, take a genius to realise that, and fortunately for United Solskjaer realised it too.

They are now a team playing in precisely that way again, and l can see them finishing in the top four quite comfortably.

Let's be fair to Ince, Blackpool could have had SAF managing them and they'd still be losing most games, it's a basket case of a club. (and you could say the same about Blackburn too)

Nah, let's not to be fair to Ince, he doesn't really deserve it

a joke made at the time and since. not as funny as Ince's joke about Man U, but should be taken about as seriously.

Paul Ince is just one of a long line of ex Manure pro's who comment on their former club.
Nothing will ever change, it's in their jeans:D

I like Ince less than a West Ham fan :smile:

Paul Ince is just one of a long line of ex Manure pro's who comment on their former club.

An extraordinarily large number of Taggart's players have had a go at management: Ince, the Neville brothers, Giggs, Keane, Darren Ferguson, Bruce, Blanc, Stam, Robson, Robins, Jordi as well as Solskjaer ... most with limited success.
