How good is he?

Very. He's a long term top flight manager.

Unless you're talking about skydiving or the modern pentathlon or something. I'm not sure then.

Devious cunt is what he is. Nothing short of a thief.

Very good. Destined to manage the same type of teams forever, but very good.

Is the brand stopping him from pushing on?

He's hardly going to rock up at Arsenal with his baseball cap and back six.

I'm a huge fan of him in a cult sort of way. When he does TV interviews he sounds like he doesn't understand microphones and thinks he has to shout all the way to the actual viewer, like a grandad from the 1920s.

Depends what you mean by 'good'. He's the enemy of football, but he is a very, very good enemy.

How is anybody who wrecks a Liverpool title challenge (and makes Luis Suarez cry) the 'enemy of football'?

Yes but it probably makes at least some sense at the same time. He's not demonstrated that he's suited to managing Man City, for instance, as he has no history of coaching attacking football, managing titanic egos, team selections that involve choosing Silva over Sterling rather than whether or not to play four centre-backs, or coping with the expectations of winning every week.

If he was called something more exotic like Sam Allardyce...

In many ways, Pulis is an ego-less Sam. He's not going to go for the bigger jobs because he's not daft. He knows his skills and limitations and the only ego he has to manage (and he's fucking managed) is Berahino.
