"Every team will want to beat us because we've spent some money. It's normal. Coventry will be well organised and play 442." Really Sven, good scouting. Hope we absolutely OBLITERATE them today!!! PUSB

Can't see where there is any arrogance there. Surely he's right. They've spent big and every team will indeed wish to beat them as they are red hot favourites to go up.

The arrogance comes from his lack of work. When did we last play 442?

Isn't that just a case of being mistaken rather than arrogant?

If anything, thats a plus for us. They might be preparing for us to play 4-4-2. Then we come out with a 4-1-2-1-2 and BOOM. 6-1 win for Cov.

I think he is arrogant as he has not done any homework and thinks he can just turn up.

Maybe. Maybe this is what his backroom staff have told him, maybe it's just a mistake.

Let's hope he does think we will play 4-4-2. Let's hope he thinks Boothroyd is still in charge too.

He probably read that SSN article that said he still was in charge.

This is the man who buys players based on dvds of their best bits, he had always been a bit'lazy' letting his assistant do most of the work but that doesn't mean he's a bad manager

Just saw the interview. He is a right tool. Doesn't seem he knows a lot about us. "They like to play football" - what is that?

Who is seven? I dont think that was arrogant, it would be if he gave it the roy keane "anybody can get a championship team mid table"

I feel a clutching at straws if we are basing our prospects of victory on Svens description of us as a team who plays football - under AT that is correct - and play 4-4-2, not strictly true as today I feel we will be playing 9-1 formation with just Juke very lonely on his own up front.

I think people are being extremely naive if you think Sven 'knows nothing about us'. Of course he does.

Well at least he hasn't prepared his side for a game of volleyball...

I'm sure some of our managers have done the same thing.

PVA - don't let the facts get in the way of this straw clutching. Obviously Sven is a crap manager having only won 17 major trophies as a manager and the first manager to win league-and-cup doubles in three different countries. He took Man City into Europe in his first season and the City fans even held a march to keep him as manager when Shiniwatra sacked him. The press turned him into some sort of cartoon character but the bottom line is he is a top class manager who I have no doubt has done his homework on us and every other opponent.

Sven does not know how we are going to play or who is going to play. None of us know either.

I fancy a 4 5 1 with Jukey up front but odds are I will be wrong. There will be a few surprises today. Hope we are one of them.

Even if Sven has completely guessed how we'll play, that's not arrogance. If he hinted in the interview that his Leicester side practically had three points it'd be different.

Agreed.

Can't see any arrogance in what he's said. Had he said something disparaging about the City then that would have been different.
