Which sporting cliché from a manager's press conference makes you want to throw the remote?
Football managers have turned dodging real questions into an art form. Some phrases are so overused they've become punchlines — but which one truly deserves to be banned forever?
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
'We take each game as it comes'
Uttered by every manager from the Premier League to the pub team. Says absolutely nothing but somehow fills 30 seconds of airtime.
B
'The lads gave 110% out there'
A mathematical impossibility repeated after every draw against relegation fodder. If only effort actually translated to points.
C
'It is what it is'
Deployed after conceding a last-minute equaliser or a shambolic 4-0 defeat. Basically means 'I've given up caring, why haven't you?'
D
'We go again next week'
The standard reply after a hammering. Comforting for absolutely no one, especially the fans who paid £80 for a ticket.
E
'The referee had a shocker'
Because obviously the linesman is why your £200m squad couldn't beat Luton. Deflection tactics at their finest.
