lovejoy Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 McLarnon needs to deliver strong words, home truths and tough decisions but I think he's too weak to do any of that. He talks a lot about showing trust in the players and creating a positive atmosphere so he won't want to risk creating animosity. Colo needs dropping and stripping of the captaincy. Janmaat needs dropping Sissoko needs dropping Tiote needs to be put down Dummett needs to be moved to CB or benched. Bring in lads who would relish a first team opportunity and stop pandering to 'established' first team players who aren't pulling their weight. this. he's done it once with mbabu and it paid off for him.

mrmojorisin75 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I think he'll go safety first (again) at Palace personally, maybe one shit change like dropping Mitrovic or Perez but nothing like it should be. If it goes tits up down there then unless he drops half the team he needs painting fucking yellow and chased over the Tyne Bridge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only manager in Newcastle's history who had to put his hand up to ask permission before giving a team talk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All sounds very good but in actuality - leaves us playing fresh air at right back and Gouffran in central midfield Fair enough on the right back situation, but a midfield of Anita/Colback, Wijnaldum, De Jong, Thauvin and Perez, on paper offers a lot more threat than Tiote, Sissoko, Anita, Wijnaldum.

The College Dropout Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 All it offers is uncertainty and thus hope. On paper Thauvin is a waste of £13m wannabe #10 & De Jong someone that's struggled with injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper Thauvin is a waste of £13m wannabe #10 & De Jong someone that's struggled with injuries. I'd rather take the risk with those two than persevere with a lineup completely devoid of creativity and invention, that has proven time after time to be completely ineffective. There is complete certainty in continuing with the same line up, the certainty that we won't win any games. I'd happily take uncertainty over that option.

The College Dropout Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 A part of me would agree. But I don't have any hope for Thauvin in particular. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad Coloccini in particular has been singled out especially as he's likely still the highest earner at the club and an absolute embarassment to the title 'NUFC captain', the useless stupid-haired f***er.

Ikon Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Good stuff. Even though i want McClaren out it's good that the spoilt cunts get some well deserved shit as well. Most of them have no heart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Will he though? I have a feeling McClaren is just as big a bottler as the players and will pick the exact same bunch of useless twats and play the exact same formation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 He has to mix it up a bit now, how can he expect to motivate players by just trotting out the same team every week and taking a bumming? Something has to change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something has to change. Agreed. It's all well and good having rows with your players but if you don't have the balls to drop them then the words start to ring hollow. If Colo's not doing the business then get Lascelles or Dummett in there and show you mean business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Colo's not doing the business then get Lascelles or Dummett in there and show you mean business. For a while I could understand (and I thought too) that it was just a matter of time before McClaren had us keeping the ball better and everything would click into place. But I think it's pretty clear now that a few heads have dropped and that's not going to happen. Sometimes you just need to make a couple of changes, even if the alternative players are worse on paper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
