NG32 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bruce man, wastes boat loads of cash on players who have a half decent season then spam out, packs a midfield 5 out with 1 up top and says "come at me bro" Aye he has done canny with Hull. But HULL BUT Steve Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Chelsea have played 4-5-1 for ages and it can be very effective against certain teams. And fwiw, Hull played 4-4-2 with Jelavic and Long up front against Arsenal. Yes, they lost, but they created chances, they weren't defending the shit out of the game.

Collage Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Remember reading an article about Bruce's work at Hull, describing him as a "hipster's manager". Laughed when I read the headline but after reading the piece I accepted it.

Ste Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 This will sound incredibly Sam Allardyce like but 4-5-1 can be a very flexible formation. Can easily shift into 4-3-3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Anyone who thinks Steve Bruce is capable of managing Newcastle needs to stop listening to those Alan Pardew motivational cassette tapes they got for Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bruce is a decent enough average manager in general, probably at the top of the average pile. But no thanks. I quite like him though. This job would finish him though. I don't think he can handle pressure. Look at what the 5-1 did to him. He took it hugely personally and it overtook him.

Collage Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bruce f*** off. He's as average as they come. Some people actually saying they'd take him here? Over Pardew? Absolutely.

NG32 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 The reality is bruce is a joke figure with nufc fans and sunderlan fans. He wont cone here. The other reality is, pardew is staying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bruce f*** off. He's as average as they come. Some people actually saying they'd take him here? It is a sign of how low we all are. Anything seems like it would be an improvement. When you hear things like even "Souness wasn't this bad" you know things have taken the worst kind of turn. But can we realistically hope for someone better than Pardew if we ever sack him? Of course we could get someone better but I don't trust we will. Its a bloody lottery.

BlueStar Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bruce Fuck off. He's as average as they come. Some people actually saying they'd take him here? That's the problem, the idea of having an average manager is appealing at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
