Flower or pietersen? Who would you choose,
« on: January 07, 2014, 05:17:21 PM »
According to the guardian.

http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/jan/07/andy-flower-england-team-director-kevin-pietersen


Flower will only stay on if pietersen goes?

Pietersen has pledged his future and want to win the ashes back, so will be available of selected and wanted by the rest of the England set up?

Who would you prefer? Flower or pietersen?

#teamKP for me.

What I would say about this article is that Selvey is supposed to be on a plane and the writing style isn't that similar to his, more sensational that the usual Selvey style...

Flower for me. Easy decision. Look at ferguson at United. Got rid of plenty of big players and built new teams. This is what Flower now needs to do.

Ask Man U fans if that is the case.

Problem is any player of any nationality can be bought and play for any football team, so night quite the correct analogy.

If it has really come to this get rid of them both...

No player or coach is bigger than the team plain and simple.

If Flower is such a good manager, how come he never started to put the problems of the summer that were plain for all to see right and how come they all look so miserable before the series even started?

If it was plain for all to see why did everyone think England would win ?

I thought we would lose the home series but batter them out there.

Good point Keiron

Everyone to a man. All the experts all the pundits including The great Sir Ian botham predicted England to win. Botham predicted 5 nil to England so he got it wrong in a massive way, so to blame flower for not seeing it coming is harsh.
