Fucking despise Edwards almost as much as Bruce. Hope he gets invited into a Saudi embassy in the near future. Bald cunt.

Plus Patriot Barnes. Top lad, loves a pint, hates horrid forners like Benitez. Don't think Bishy Bish is there anymore though. Although it's like choosing how you want to die, I'd much rather Llambias was MD rather than the bald cunt.

Well, Bournemouth was the end of McLaren. Can't see Ashley fucking this cretin off now though. SJP was toxic that day. This is when having fans in helps, Bruce has been getting away with murder all season with this tripe.

Posted in the Bruce thread, Jones' formation is bollocks. Plays with no strikers and exposes our s**** full backs badly. We may well be able to play with Almiron, Wilson, Manquillo and ASM but they're out and it needs changing. If we don't beat Villa or Brighton a strong 10, we're down. Change to what? Isn’t formations problem, is lack of making use of it, and having any conviction in anything we do. Resorted back to Bruce’s classic approach of direct to Joe wide, who hopefully can get better of a full back physically. Nothing went through midfield, despite having four players in there. Full backs forever rushing it forward, instead of playing it back into midfield and going again. That’s not just lack of talent, that’s instruction. Can’t just drop wingers so deep to protect crap full backs, as it’ll be back to case of having next to nobody in forward areas. It’ll be a case of us being sitting ducks again. We aren’t good enough in transition to move the ball, move positions, be patient when needed and get players from deeper areas into attacking positions to build attacks, probe down one side, come back out and try again. The formation is part of the problem. We caught out Everton with it and capitalised on a poor Southampton defence who conceded 9 goals in one game in the game before but now its been found out. The players available can't play in this, Gayle was tragic when he came on and was tragic at Chelsea when in this weird false 9 winger hybrid position that Wilson had joy in at Everton. We didn't press today like we have done in games previous, as we lack Almirón's energy. And with ASM, Almiron and Wilson out we have zero goal threat or creativity as was seen today. Constant long balls to Fraser () and Joelinton. We need to get the best out of the players we have available and keeping on playing this system is hindering rather than helping.

I think he wants to sell to PIF as he'll get 300 odd million but I agree that he's not desperate to sell. If he was desperate to sell it why doesn't he knock £100m off the asking price and get rid?

Playing him and Joelinton (although the latter wasn't too bad which says fuck all) is like playing with 9 men.

Posted in the Bruce thread, Jones' formation is bollocks. Plays with no strikers and exposes our shite full backs badly. We may well be able to play with Almiron, Wilson, Manquillo and ASM but they're out and it needs changing. If we don't beat Villa or Brighton a strong 10, we're down.

This formation that we've been playing since Jones has come in is shite, mind. Aye, it won us the game at Everton and Southampton but its now been found out. Its basically playing without a striker and it exposes poor full backs really badly. Maybe we can play it with all players back fit. But they aren't. He has to change it but he won't, the useless cunt.

Well said tubes. Telling it how it is.

Serves Bruce right for thinking a point at a 19th placed WBA who have a worse defensive record than us and have won 3 times all season was a good result tbh.

Embarrassing to the sport.

One of the worst games I've ever watched. We're drawing our winnable games, can't see when we next win. It certainly won't be without ASM, Almiron and Wilson.

Hendrick being on the pitch may as well be like having 10 men. Not terrible first 20 minutes but then reverted to long balls to Fraser whenever we win it back since then. Don't seem to be doing anything remotely similar to what Jones has brought in last few games. Tragic stuff.

Bristol City letting me down for £125 on a six fold. Hate betting.

Keown called out McClaren too. To the punditry thread

Sorry everyone for yesterday. But in regards to what Disco is on about:

Oh tubes, you’ll definitely watch it. Aye. Wish he'd fuck off with his constant shite patter. 4 or 5 different accounts over 5 years. Absolute weirdo.

Danny Rose saying that he was shocked at getting so much time off at Newcastle whereas Pochettino would only give Spurs players 1 day off if they were lucky. Benitez having the players in for training in the evening after he was appointed in the afternoon in the same day. Bruce is such a fucking embarrassment to the profession of being a football manager. Clubs' owners and directors deserve everything they get for appointing him.

25 years ago.

Spot on tubes. You tell them.

He has to go now. Untenable as fuck.

Rodgers was as well iirc.
