Man management

I think that rules out the prospect of Bale moving to QPR.

“We have a great relationship,” said Bale. “Last season we had a great campaign and obviously we came up short but we had a great working relationship on and off the field.

“We chatted quite a lot about tactics and stuff like that. He definitely got the best out of me last season and hopefully can again.”

Unbelievable, how do these guys get a job?
They publish an EXCLUSIVE about Bale WANTING to join Man Utd, with no quotes whatsoever. Absolutely ridiculious

We all know the hype Redknapp gets for being 'great' at man management but clearly AVB is a step above to get the best from our players.

==================

AVB got the best out of Bale whilst bringing the worst out of Parker, Ade, Walker and BAE.

You just know i cant resist a counter argument on this debate.

And i dont want to break into song but its not unusual .. for a player to speak highly of a current manager - its a pretty bog standard answer in an interview situation.

You always say that chicken but I never really heard players come out in such positivity towards redknapp like avb. It's there staring at you in the face mate... Bale saying avb is a big reason why his game has improved. Why would he say this for the sake of it?

Don,

Of course i always say it - because its true. How many LFC players are currently saying how good BR is, how many of them same players said KK was the bees knees? Come on fella, stop listening to what you simply want to hear.

Many players praised Redknapp but like any club, the players are hardly going to claim the previous manager was better are they?

When AVB goes, our players will praise the next manager...and so on.

You wouldnt tell your current girlfriend your ex was better in bed would you?

In my opinion, Bale had a great season on a personal level but I think it came at the expense of the team at times.

Players played out of position, and the balance of the side skewed to accommodate him in his free role. Indulged at times to the detriment of the collective.

It's no surprise Bale has praised him - he is the beneficiary. If Siggy came out and said his game had improved from playing LM with a right-footed LB, or Verts had improved by playing LB with no natural width in front of him, then I'd be impressed
