At this moment in time I believe the most commonly used phrase, used by 'FOOTBALL EXPERTS', is "WITH NO DISRESPECT TO BURNLEY" Harry Redknapp has just used it on TS obviously talking about how SD could go on and be the best English manager ever and things like that but never stopping to think about the bigger picture, would the owners of the big billionaire owned clubs, apart from Arsenal, allow the manager to have a massive input into the design of the new training facilities would they let him have so much autonomy in procurement and wage structures, probably not. SD bought into Burnley and Burnley bought into SD he's brilliant at what he's doing with us he knows he has a freedom that other managers don't have it's a 2 way thing and these EXPERTS have never even considered it, I don't really think they are experts they are pundits a word that describes well paid babblelers! ... if thats a word utc.

Is it "What Does Dyche Do When Heaton Is Fit? I Don't See How Pope Can Be Dropped To The Bench, But Tom Isn't A Number 2 Is He?"?

Well you can have a Old World Babbler or a Grey Crowned Babbler, so I expect you can have "babblers" but not "babblelers"

"Arsenal" Tottenham"
media obsessed with these two most boring of clubs, I play arsenal lotto with talk sport, randomly turn it on and see how many seconds pass before they mention the *****. Football has become pap with the advent of talking football, radio five has similarly become a haven for dross punits by the dozen. It could put you off for life.

I'll be gutted if we get a stuck on penalty not given and an onside goal disallowed against Arsenal. Wouldn't surprise me after last year mind

(I'm not being funny but) (at the end of the day) (Sean Dyche must leave Burnley some day). (Manchester United) (Arsenal) and (City) (want permission from Burnley to talk to Dyche). (WBA are also interested in Dyche following Pullis's dismissal) (but there is a large queue of admirers looking at him). (Burnley are punching above their weight) and (Dyche needs to be looking elsewhere while his stock is high).
I think that just about covers it for now.

How about the ubiquitous, annoying, trait of starting a sentence with
"For me...."
(just 100% not needed - as there's not really a possibility that you might be voicing someone else's opinion)

Foreign managerspeak favourites:
We are in a very good moment ("Things seem to be going well just now")
The group ("the squad")
A very interesting project ("A big salary for me")

They say all those important decisions even out over a season....................
Although it is more even for the very big clubs who must always be in the prem and less even for those clubs from smaller places, who would probably be replaced any another team from a big city with very rich owners, from somewhere exotic.

'2-0 is a dangerous lead'.
'Playing against ten men isn't easy'.
Two banks of four.
At 2-0 'the next goal is important'.
'We'll re-group and go again'
