[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1212241, member: 73592"] I can answer - I have answered, what I haven't done, is defend Galthié As far as I can see, your questions to me are: "[B]your idea of Galthié's « excellent management skills [/B]»" which is a partial mis-quote (though you got it right later) from my words "But he was unhappy in camp, from the above, was offered to go home instead, and took that offer. Quite honestly, the way the quotes in the first post are worded, Galthié is demonstrating excellent man-management skills." FTR, "the way the quotes in the first post are worded" refers to: "He told me that he didn't have a good feeling about me, that I could go home. So I told him I preferred to go home. I needed a break, a mental break from all that... I left liberated. It was by mutual agreement" I think it's pretty clear where my view on Galthié excellent man-management skills comes from - it's from the words you typed. But then, you'd know that if you read the words that I had typed. FTR, the above does not strike as "driving Jalibert back to his club" so much as Galthié identified that a player "was unhappy in camp... was offered to go home instead, and took that offer" "[B]why would you expect him to lose his job by the summer?[/B]" as a response to my words "I do think that he needs to win this 6N or lose his job this summer - but that's because this French team (that he built) should be winning more - they win plenty of matches, but have a soft underbelly, and don't have the silverware they deserve. Ultimately, it's a results business, and Galthié isn't getting the results that matter... but they risk achieving the square root of ____ all, and if there's to be a change before the RWC, this summer is the last realistic opportunity that gives a new hire time to do their thing." Again, I think it's pretty clear what I base my opinion on - to anyone who had actually read the words I typed And then you have a non-question of: [B]You keep contradicting yourself though. You admitted knowing and caring little about FG's management style (« I neither know, nor particularly care about Galthié reputation or management style »), yet you credit the man with « excellent man-management skills » (based on ??) but you said he could be out of his job by next summer…hilarious.[/B] When there is no contradictions whatsoever between "identifying a player with a mental health problem, and acting appropriately to that" and "not winning tournaments" Now, if you have any questions for me that I haven't already answered, feel free to ask them - but please, show me the respect of actually reading what I've written, and maybe reading what you've written, and checking that you're not either missing things I've written, or mis-representing things that I've written - because they don't fit YOUR narrative.
