Listening to Bilic at half time, articulately (in a second of many languages) and insightfully unpick the game is streets ahead of Pulis as co-commentator. His knowledge of world football is incredible too.
Yet in the stands, we have Pulis referring to "The Lad" for most names- as he hasn't got a fucking clue who they are- and mocking the quality of corners throughout the tournament, minutes into the game. Textbook Pulis.
The bit for me, which reminded me of another manager to whom we're familiar with, was after the second goal went in. He said, in pretty much these words, "Turkey should've tightened up after the first goal and seen it through to half time before addressing matters." I understand the sentiment, but it speaks volumes regarding his approach and Slaven's.
In my opinion, we are very lucky to have our manager.

Slaven is always very good at explaining exactly what a team is doing right or wrong. Most of the match discussion on the BBC is just the usual cliches and all that , blah , blah , blah as Slaven himself would say.
