    Judging by his use of metaphors in his post-match interview from last night:

    “After they scored – you can’t go to DIY football – there’s got to be a discipline to it, both in and out of possession. And what happens then, from certain players, is once they go to DIY football, it represents opportunities for the opposition.

    “There’s got to be a certain amount of energy and urgency to try and get something from the game, but we don’t have to go all in to do that. We’re still at the poker table playing – we’re still in the game until our chips are gone. But there’s too many who throw all their chips in and want to gamble, and I don’t gamble.

    “I make calculated decisions whether I’m playing cards, buying a car, buying a house, and I want the players to reflect that. When Barnsley went 1-0 up, there’s too many players who went all in. I don’t expect my players to go all in like that.”

    Imagine how good his metaphors will be mid-season.

    Is DIY football when players do what they're told rather than think for themselves? Is DIY baseball when players reach Homebase?

    Maybe they should have mixed in a few light 3bet's to balance out their range?
