Heron Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 One up front is just w***. 1, 2 or 3 up front is not the problem. Slow build up play is. Too cautious. Yeah and we have slow build up because we have the most overcrowded and weakest (physically) midfield in the league. Either attack is our best form of defence (which it should be) or the other way around. It needs a shake up. A new captain should have been selected in the summer and players like Sissoko now need dropping if necessary. Right now it's necessary because they have to have the right attitude and for me he doesn't. We have no leaders, no composure and no backbone. Still!

joeyt Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I know it was only against Northampton but Thauvin and Janmaat clicked so well in that game, its annoying that it was discarded the next two games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrymac1966 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Of course it's Pardew that's why he was appointed when Ranieri and Laudrup were available For what it's worth we have launched 50 million into a bottomless abyss too ... very poor scouting by the chatty man Winaldum and Gouffran are 1 and the same except for the price posts like these that makes me thing matchday posts should be banned. OK kidda so I should be banned ... I take it your fukin blind then and didn't watch the game but felt it on brail TV Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maze Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 SMc's Interview from Sky - Didn't do what we've done for the last four games. (Well that's bloody true. We have gone from shit to turbo-shit. So in that sense Steve, it's actually a good thing, if it hadn't been for the fact you need to be better than what you have been the last four games) - Failed to compete, win our duals. - He doesn't know why it was. The journey? The ten minute warm up? (I know this, and I'm not even close to being a good manager. Look at Fantasy, I'm really shite. But it is called lack of preparation. - Wake up call that you have to be 100% (Seriously?! SERIOUSLY? The fact that you need a wake-up called to be 100% is quite fucking worrying.) - Credit to WHU. - We didn't match them. - Big reaction needed on Saturday. - Journey not the best preparation. Stop it - First four games, what we've been doing, we didn't do tonight and we need to get back to that. (Again, Steve. No, NO NO! you need to get past that and perform better) - Lack of cutting edge a big problem. Really? REEEEALLY? - Final ball/final cross was not of quality of WHU, thats why we lost. - All about the training pitch now. - We need a reaction now for Saturday. - Not just from the players but also from the staff and the fans (?!?). Reaction from the fans, you say? Well, that's probably as nailed on as the fact that you will lose yet again if you "go back to the last four games") - Shot ourselves in the foot with their second goal. (Impossible. Afaik, it deflected of the foot... or head.. of a West Ham player.. Besides, the ball was in the back of our net) - He confirmed that he did see their second goal.

TRon Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 It's great that McClaren realises we are shit, but has he realised he's had a hand in this? The timing of the subs today suggests he thinks his choices are right, but they had an off night. He needs to realise he has setup us up wrong and given shit players too much game time. It's not even that. You can put 11 shit players together, but if they compliment each other the whole can be greater than the parts. It looks the other way round at the moment, and McClaren is starting to look like he's a few drinks behind Sir Alex if his smiling, red faced Santa routine is going to last much longer this season.

midds Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I know it was only against Northampton but Thauvin and Janmaat clicked so well in that game, its annoying that it was discarded the next two games He's too scared to drop Colback but doesn't trust him enough to play him by himself in front of the CD's. He picks someone to play next to him as security (stop laughing) and he likes Sissoko and his graft but he can only play on the right. Therefore the only position free is on the left where he doesn't appear to be as good. #dropcolback get it fucking trending, get the useless cunt out ffs.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Of course it's Pardew that's why he was appointed when Ranieri and Laudrup were available Ranieri is fucking rank man. He's never been successful despite being in charge of massive clubs - five games in continuing Leicester's "party spirit" doesn't make him a good manager.

Disco Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Seems to have binned off the forward thinking stuff he had going on at Derby and has reverted back to the defensive, dreary stuff he specialised in at Boro. Tonight was pathetic against a very winnable opponent who cruised to victory in first gear and he needs to take full responsibility. Wijnaldum has to start deep or a change to 4-4-2 against Watford please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he said before the game that it wasn't going to be an excuse and afterwards he referred to that same comment. He was asking if it had made a difference, that's all.

Heron Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Let's not get into the whole nit picking a fucking interview. He clearly isn't the suave dick Pardew was and whether that's a good thing or not is yet to be seen. He hasn't had enough time to be judged but he still needs to shake things up. Watford is huge for crowd pleasing and no 3 points makes it a mountain for him and more importantly NUFC to climb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The only positive from last season has been the possession stats, but really too many negatives so far. We are set up not to get beat, but have been beaten 3 out of the 5 times we've played. We have zero cutting edge, zero. The players look devoid of ideas and it's just really more of the sole destroying stuff of last year. We are not getting out of the bottom 3 all season unless something changes and changes fast.

Heron Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 More defensive than Pardew is a load of s**** like It's not. He's playing two DM's. He's also playing 3 attacking midfielders. It's pretty much the same if not more attacking. This whole 451, 4321, 4231 shit is just that...shit, anyways. Problem being the one thing NUFC doesn't have is time. So he needs to change it regardless of how much time he should reasonably be given. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
