Thanks for sharing that, a great watch. Cutler has done wonders since he came to the club, deserves a lot of credit.

I get that lots of that particular video is for the cameras, but what is Neil Cutler actually teaching Martinez?"Oh, cheers Neil. Get up quickly after I've made a save you say? Like I did that time in the f**king Copa America final the other day?"Obviously not having coaches isn't an option, but surely top-level players must spend a lot of their time feeling very patronised.

So it's possibly why in years past, obsessives like Mourinho Benitez Wenger Klopp have all been successful despite not having Pele like playing careers.Cutler isn't going to teach Martinez how to pull off world class saves, but he is going to pore over hours of footage, and point out habits or patterns that he thinks could potentially cost him.Am clueless tbh. But that's my best guess.
