Foluwashola Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Ashley can continue to sanction money to be spent on forwards and midfielders for the next 10 years but he'll never understand the fact that a relatively small investment (compensation and wages) on a proper manager would be the best investment he could make. You can buy Berahino for £20m or whatever and he'll score a few goals but investing £10m on a good manager will see the club about 10 places higher. He's thick as fuck. A proper striker would see us 10 places higher anarl. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 This is what Boro fans used to moan about every week about him. Every week he would say they were magnificent. We huffed and puffed and had a few half chances but without a top drawer goalscoring centre forward to convert them we aren't gonna win many games.

nufcjmc Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I can understand protecting players and trying to keep some form of positive mindset but this ren and stimpy happy , happy joy joy shite he keeps pushing will eventually piss off even the most "give the guy a break" supporter. When we are shite I would much rather he tell it like it is, consistantly shit enough to be and deservingly so for most of the season in the bottom 3/5 teams you cannot use any superlatives to talk about performances when you have lost for the THIRD time newly promoted watford. His comments about the three changes made about the players were also so gag inducing I feel he must be either a great big twat or trying to look like one to make the convo about him being shite instead of 70% of the players. He used the term tremendous and then went on to say we are weak in both boxes and I know for a fact we didnt dominate in the middle so were exactly were we "tremendous" at rolling over and telling sides to fuck us long and hard and send us down with a wanker at the helm who will smile all the way to the last game of the season telling us "if we play like that every week we will be ok.......... in the championship" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the fuck is he on about. It's one thing to want to not slate your players in the media, it's another thing entirely to just chat fucking cheddar. The thing I like(d) about McClaren is that he's generally honest, so if that goes then he has very little left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I can't even be arsed to read anything he's said as it's the same old crap every time we lose.

Ronaldo Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Every interview he uses the word "attitude" about 4 times. If you havnt noticed, listen for it.

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 all him today, he pardewed his way to this one Aided by a fair amount of s**** on the pitch. All he had to do was make one f***ing change. Jesus. And then what? Our centre halves still would've been mugged off by Deeney and Ighalo being able to out-muscle them. So might have been an idea to play to our strengths then rather than rely on a defence that got raped by the same front pair at St James. The f*** are people watching? The same thing but trying to view it with more balance, maybe? Balance. Christ. Have you actually criticised any players today, by any chance? Or is it just your usual McClaren rant that you've been regurgitating every single week for about the last 7 months? We're back to the Pardew days again are we? Manager gets it all wrong so lets blame the players, or perceived lack of them. Last week was McClaren, I don't recall anyone taking it away from him. Today was McClaren too, f***ing s***. Every decision wrong just like most of his time here or we'd have more points. Why do you only view this as one way or the other? That's my point, I only ever see you criticise one person out of the staff in our whole mess. Because we go through players like a hot knife through butter while holding onto managers for years. It's simple stuff to me. Get a better manager the players will play better. Today was the worst I've seen of McClaren, basically Pardew vs Reading levels of absolute s****. You blame whoever you want but I said before the game started we were beat with that formation and selection and that's how it turned out. And you don't think there's a decent chance we'd have been beaten in a 4-2-3-1 with 2 physically poor CBs against 2 of the most direct forwards in the league? I think today was reminiscent of early this season with Anita playing at 3rd CB so things looked good until everyone realises we had no attacking intent and we lost. I really don't think I'm alone in thinking if we'd played the same formation as WHU with Aarons at LB we'd have given a much better account of ourselves. You praised the Anita thing and gave him pelters when he stopped doing it Meh. This won't go anywhere. We didn't look very good going forward today even when people were in their more conventional spots. The only time we looked threatening was that opening 20 which was with a 3. Excuse me? Ah yeah, total nonsense. Cheers. Not total nonsense at all. I vividly remember us having a discussion a few months back and you definitely criticised him for stopping the Anita dropping back thing. You pretty much said every decision McClaren made was shit and the only good thing he'd done, get Anita to drop back and pick up the ball, was something he'd abandoned. No, I said it was the only thing he'd done tactically that worked and it was correct at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovejoy Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 This squad, despite its flaws, is better than the bottom three. We've spent most of the season in there. Manager not good enough.

biggs Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Just not enough balls in the players to raise the game and if it was a top 6 side we are playing would more than likely had a better outcome but McClaren just cannot motivate the players to perform on a consistent level from one game to the next .What does Steve Black do exactly and thought he was there for the psychology side well feckin fine job he is doing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The irony is we do have some goals in our squad in de Jong, Perez, Wijnaldum, Cisse and Mitrovic. Yet we are losing to teams who one decent striker who we fail to cope with.
