Worked in an Italian company for a while, although if you judge by the colleagues I had there were zero attractive women in both offices. I've travelled there twice tho and I wasn't that impressed at all.

of the places I have been to - the hottest women have been in Amsterdam and in Prague - and I don't mean the girls in the red light areas - just the regular girls walking around were very impressive.

I've never been to Bulgaria but if the women there look like Nina Dobrev, count me in.

Anytime ive been the talent has been a let down. I have to say, surprisingly the women in ireland are great. Sexy as. Belfast/Dublin/Cork, amazing talent.

Love a Dublin accent, literally gives me a boner whenever it's a woman, having a predominantly Irish name helps as well

The players were baffled... and called him a weirdo: The inside story on Frank de Boer calamitous 77-day reign as Crystal Palace manager

Introverted is one way to describe Frank de Boer. Those who have worked with the Dutchman over the past 77 days might offer up far less complimentary descriptions.

'Difficult to get along with,' said one Crystal Palace source. 'A bit of a weirdo,' said another.

A tad harsh, perhaps. How well can you get to know someone in 77 days? Nevertheless, his personality — or, by all accounts, his lack of it — is said to have played a role in his sacking.

According to insiders, communication was not De Boer's strong point. This set of players are used to Tony Pulis, Alan Pardew and Sam Allardyce who are assertive and authoritative.

De Boer's distinguished playing career should have commanded instant respect. Sadly, it didn't work out that way and it could be argued that the players never gave him a chance.

The decision to play Luka Milivojevic as a centre back in pre-season bewildered the Serb and his team-mates.

Signed by Allardyce in January, Milivojevic played a crucial role in Palace's midfield as they avoided the drop last season, so moving him into a back three did not make sense to anyone.

Similarly, De Boer is understood to have had a difficult relationship with defender Damien Delaney.

The Irish centre back has made close to 200 appearances for the club and despite an increasingly peripheral role, remains a hugely popular and influential member of the Palace squad.

Maybe De Boer mis-read the dressing-room politics, but his relationship with his players was hardly harmonious and it is inevitable that concerns would find their way to chairman Steve Parish.

The players simply weren't convinced by De Boer's methods and the difficulties he encountered in communicating with his squad left them confused about what was required on match-days and in training sessions.

De Boer arrived vowing that his team would dominate the ball. Pass, pass, pass — just like Ajax.

It sounds credible in theory but putting the plan into practice in the Premier League was easier said than done with the squad he had at his disposal at Palace.

De Boer did not have the personnel to play three at the back. The players knew it wouldn't work but it seems no one told De Boer.

Certain players would argue that De Boer would not have listened anyway. Allardyce had the team playing percentage football. It wasn't attractive but it worked, so no wonder the Palace hierarchy tried to lure Big Sam back to Selhurst Park last week.

Eventually, the decision to sack De Boer was made as the team flew back to London after losing to Burnley on Sunday. It is not as though De Boer wasn't warned because some of the Dutchman's allies predicted this ending and told him as much in the summer.

He should have listened. De Boer arrived in south London intent on rebuilding his reputation after being fired after only 83 days in charge at Inter Milan.

That reputation is now in tatters and Roy Hodgson will be confirmed as the new manager within 24 hours.

De Boer's departure has been coming ever since Palace lost at home to Swansea before the international break.

The only surprise is that he was given Sunday's game against Burnley to try to turn things around.

From the boardroom to the dressing-room; everyone knew De Boer was on borrowed time and finally he's been put out of his misery. The dressing-room upheaval played its part but by no means was it the only factor. Manager and club certainly did not see eye-to-eye regarding transfer policy.

Ask those close to De Boer and they will tell you Palace did not make enough effort to sign the players he had identified. They will say the club did not trust the manager's judgment.

However, others at Selhurst Park might suggest the players who De Boer wanted had 'costly mistake' written all over them.

Who is telling the truth? The reality is probably somewhere in the middle but what is for sure is that manager and club weren't singing from the same hymn sheet.

De Boer certainly didn't have much money to play with following Palace's heavy expenditure in the transfer market over the past two seasons. But, by the same token, you can forgive the club for not throwing millions of pounds at unproven talent from the Dutch Eredivisie.

Ultimately, though, the key to De Boer's sacking had to be the results. Four games, four defeats, no goals. There is no escaping those numbers and the numbers certainly didn't stack up for Crystal Palace.

Tbh Daily mail shouldn't be trusted even when they have quotes from players, so I for one won't believe when they quote some unnamed player or coach.

De Boer: 'Inter players chaotic'
By Football Italia staff

Frank De Boer claims Inter “formed a block” in the locker room. “When I tried to play position-based football… The Ajax youth players did better.”

He was brought in to replace Roberto Mancini two weeks before the 2016-17 season began and lasted until the end of October.

The Dutch tactician was also then hired and fired by Crystal Palace this term, but insists San Siro was a worse experience.

“I had more complications in Italy and it wasn’t just because of the language, but also the way of transmitting my messages and my ideas,” De Boer told Ziggo Sport in the Netherlands.

“Our way of thinking is much more similar to England, whereas at Inter it was all based on sentiment. They formed a block of seven or eight players and the rest try to knock them out.

“It was a bit chaotic, everyone did what they wanted. When I tried to make Inter play position-based football, well… I’d never seen anything like it. Youth team players at Ajax did it better.

“I didn’t expect that to happen. Even in training, they gave up on the routines very early and didn’t see the point of them.”

SHOCKING STATEMENTS! no not rly...it is well known our "stars" are fucking morons...TIME FOR REVOLUTION!

 

[M.Adnan]

First solution for this problem is to know who are those group of blockers. Ship them out, and replace them with Rafinha's and Skriniar's. Not only we'll qualify for the CL, but also seriously compete for the scudetto. Doesn't matter who the manager is.

Are you referring to Barcelona ?

 

[Demenza Senile]

If this is true then it is extremely disturbing and we need a big shake up here if we dont make the UCL this year.Chaps like Brozovic and Perisic most definitely need to GTFO.

Infact i would be prepared to see guys like Handanovic and Icardi sold as well.I would only keep Skriniar and Cancelo here and make a new squad with the money we earn from these sales.Way too many rotten eggs in the dressing room who are an insult to our colours.A chap like Icardi being captain and his wife destabilising the club every year simply cannot be the way forward.We must draw a line in the sand this summer.Enough is enough already.The fans need to boycott the stadium if our present crisis continues.Let the higher ups know they cannot continue to mock our traditions and values using our monies and time to pay these merceneries.

 

[Nyall]

This group of players are that way because they know they have the full backing and support from our management over any coach that comes in.

At any other team, management would take action and get rid of such players, realizing that they are a cancer to the team.. But Here? We ponder to them and give them pay increases and extensions after a few good games.

What group of players you talking about. We only have couple players who can perform consistently.

The block of 7/8 players that Frank is referring too.

 

[M.Adnan]

I know for sure that Eder, Brozovic and Kondogbia were part of that shitty group.

This is why I've taken De Boer's side despite his mistakes. He wasn't the real problem. A group of Chievo level players who don't listen to their managers are why we're having a shit show.

 

[surripere]

"whereas at Inter it was all based on sentiment. They formed a block of seven or eight players and the rest try to knock them out"

What does that even mean? I'm lost.

 

[thatdude]

I assume that means there are 7-8 players that run the dressing room and are undroppable
