Ted Maul Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Didn't see the match, but 3-6-1 against Watford? Any momentum we had stopped dead. Pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ElCid Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 "We just said to the players that we won't have a problem if we keep performing like that every week," said McClaren He's like a broken record. Honestly the bloke is a fucking joke - the record just keep getting scratched the amount of times he plays it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 20 points from a possible 45 required just to be safe. I cannot see that happening in his lifetime. We are averaging .9 of a point per game season to date, and we now need to be averaging 1.3 just to keep us up - not a chance IMO. There is only really two teams in it with us and that's Norwich and Swansea. We are now in a position that we are relying on them being worse than us. Why the fook he changed a winning formation, only he will know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I don't hate him (yet) BUT he is crap, even if we somehow manage to avoid the drop we are not going to become a decent side under him We really should ditch him asap and get someone like Bielsa in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 He's a poor manager and I think the majority knew what we were getting when he signed on. Waited 6 months to appoint a second rate manager, only us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It wasn't the 3-5-2 that I have an issue with, with the players we had available you could see why he might have gone with that. The problem was that once it became apparent it wasn't working, he didn't know how to change it. Perez should have been stuck up front as soon as we went behind so that we would at least have another goal scorer on the pitch and we should have switched to a more attacking formation.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Where are people getting 3-5-2 from? We played Mitrovic up front by himself. The midfield were miles away from him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Doesn't matter what he's got to work with and what injuries he has to deal with, our record at this stage of the season is fairly unforgiveable. Especially since we surrended in both cups as well. In 08/09 at this stage we were in a better position, had more points, more goals scored, fewer goals conceded and were only 4 points from the team in 10th; it's 11 points this season because we just lost to them. Fucking wank and he should be embarrassed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 People were saying he'd walk before he was pushed if things didn't work out. Can anybody still see this happening? Not a chance imo. He'll take us down before he jacks it in. Man, we hit the jackpot with someone actually paying money to take Pardew of our hands to give us a clean slate and we squandered it by handing Carver the job (to almost catastrophic effect last season) whilst waiting for this utter dudd.

It's beyond belief to any sort of normal football club but to us it's standard practice. I'd like to say I hope this teaches the board a lesson but it wouldn't in the slightest.

midds 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.
