How’s the match bonus did you say?

Been in the game long enough to know that was dreadful, shithouse performance. What I can’t stand about this bloke, he had an esteemed career - he knows full well standards needed at top level, but has made a career out of management despite being totally incapable of enacting them into his sides. Total loser manager. Doesn’t coach, just repeats same crap in interviews for 25 years.

May as well play an academy lad over this guy now. Clearly been told he’s not getting any new deal and doesn’t give a toss anymore. Bound to be looking after himself, doesn’t want to get injured. Haven’t seen him do anything of note since that header earlier on this season.

Throw Carroll a bone and make sure he gets his match bonus

Win, lose or draw we always manage to just let the second half fade into obscurity. Nothing about this side at all. No urgency, no bottle, no courage, no talent.

Gayle’s given up like. No contract at end of year, he’s not arsed if we win, lose here. As long as he doesn’t break his leg he’ll be happy.

Less than 15 and Carroll just sat in stands with all his layers on. Not even warming up. Don’t worry lads, it’s not a must win.

Any shots to the bench it’s just Bruce standing there. Seems like he’s told Jones to stay out of the way, and not be seen in box shouting instructions. Bound to on back of Hopey putting stuff out about players and Jones. Bruce is such a child man

Good stuff from Willock that. Not seen Jeff do that once since he’s been here.

This Krath long throw business has to stop.

Unfair that

Throwing too many players forward here Steve... Steady on.

Was thinking the same. What’s this all about? Not watching on Amazon.

Would have been far better option to have around than Joelinton, Gayle, Muto, Joselu in hindsight Like Toney, he doesn’t develop the way he has if he’d have stayed and not got games though. Should have stuck in a few clauses for any future sale, or buy back. Scored goals in Championship when he was out on loan, so would have been obvious to think he’d get PL interested as soon as he had a bumper season down there like he has done.

Yep! Hard angle to score from and he misses they’d be blaming him for not squaring it. First 10 mins he looked lively down that side. But we’ve killed that plan to death, and their LCB, LB have worked it out and winning everything tried to play down that channel. Hopeless though, Fraser is only player who can run at anyone, but you’ve got Dummett behind who’s never going to support or create space or overlap.

No idea how you’d change this from the bench. Everyone on there is equally as shite. Missing Almiron massively. Without him where not bothering to press at all. Missing that extra player in forward line, Bruce has bottled it and stuck Hendrick in instead of Gayle, Murphy in for Almiron.

Wish he’d played that mole. Could do with a bit of movement in midfield.

Would rather fat pisstain just started Carroll and we launched it up to his useless carcass. At least then we’d have some conviction about us, be a bit high tempo and get bodies running forward. This is just back to death by thousand cuts shite we thought Jones eradicated

Hopeless this. Back to the glories of Bruceball. Playing 4 central midfielders, but everything is going backwards then direct to Joelinton. No movement, no passing through lines, no patience, just so obvious. Not seen Hendrick do anything yet. Willock, Hayden equally anonymous. Shelvey getting on ball but usual crap.That long ball on Joe hasn’t worked numerous times now, it’s been sussed, but where totally incapable of changing anything up.

Merson’s harmless enough. People getting annoyed with anything he says are making the critical mistake of taking him seriously; once a season he might say something salient, but I find it usually amusing to see what he’s going to come out with next. That cock spot Richard Keys on the other hand is totally intolerable. He knows full well what he’s doing, these dorks like Paul Merson and Tim Sherwood are just amusing.

Aye, it’s an actual thing... Hughton 2010 Mick McCarthy 2012 AVB 2012 Di Matteo 2012 Di Canio 2013 Ferguson’s last game for Man U 2013 Roberto Mancini 2013 Hughton (again) 2014 Craig Shakespeare 2017

And in 2013/14 and 2014/15... Fair does! Looked through those seasons, totally missed him at West Ham! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30766357 West Ham and wor Andy humping Bruce 3-0! All your favourites, 5 back, injured players with references to lengthy injury list , same old broken record patter in the post match

Out and out striker wise (excluding Ronaldo/Messi) probably top 5; No particular order but I’d be having him, Suarez, Ibra, Henry, Van Nistelrooy/Ronaldo(when he was fit) CL all time goalscorers is a pretty decent metric. Only Raul up there I wouldn’t be having, never really saw him play, but strangely never thought him a great.
