Most players just trot out the company line, hard to read too much into it really.
He didn't trot out the company line, at Southampton all those years ago (which is why Rafa made him captain)
Bollocks to him.
After the break on Sky.
Hope he’s rattled.
It will be the usual rubbish how we 'worked hard, but were tired. Coronavirus, Arsenal good side, etc......"
If he had any self-respect, he would resign. But he hasn't and he won't.
He's going to be here for a while yet. Ashley will only panic when it's too late to turn it around. Remember Carver and Maclaren?
It hurts - should be used to it by now.
Bruce will be in the job a few more weeks yet, if he had any dignity or self respect, he would resign. But he won’t.
Bruce will say that he’s ‘seen a reaction’ tonight. It’s not been good evough though - Joelinton has been utterly anonymous. Need Murphy on at least to get some crosses in.
I sadly think that Bruce is going to be around for a few more weeks yet, when when the inevitable losses come. History tells us that Ashley only acts when it’s too late, and us playing in empty stadiums give him and Bruce the shelter neither deserve.
