Exactly, his understanding of tactics is bad, starting with two strikers (I assume that's what he was going for anyway, otherwise he was playing Riviere as a winger, because his pre-match interview saw him say "When Yoan Gouffran signed for us it was as a centre-forward and he keeps telling me that, so he has an opportunity today") away at Everton, but frequently only starting with only one at home?
I know that in Europe they do opt for "coaches", not "managers", but if you are going to do that here, at least ensure they have a basic understanding of positions, tactics, and motivational techniques.
