I don't see it that way, to be honest with you. I think he's the most well-liked manager we've ever had. I remember going on the Bayern forums when he was Dortmund's manager, and none of them said a bad word about him. I always thought that was odd, until he arrived here. You see it now on places like Redcafe. Their fans begrudgingly admit he's a good bloke.
Obviously, City fans on Bluemoon hate him, but they hate everyone. And Evertonians live in their own fantasy world, but even some of them, in their quieter moments, admit he's awesome.
