One good thing to come out of lockdown is the idea that Newcastle play badly because of crowd pressure has been proven to be bullshit.

 

Massively agree. He cant hide behind that now

 

He thought the players had got past Rafa's defensive brainwashing, but clearly they haven't so he'll have to go back to a five man defence next week. :(

The problem is that nobody decent will touch us.  It's Bruce or someone else shit.

 

Didn't Arteta want it?

 

I very much doubt it.  He was linked, but I can't remember anything to suggest that he really wanted the job.

 

I mean, we ended up with Bruce.  That's enough evidence to suggest nobody decent will work for Mike Ashley.

So many teams have managers who instil a clear philosophy of play and approach each game with a forensic plan to ensure they get the most out of their players and nullify what the opposition have to offer.

 

We have Steve Bruce who plays the most basic of 4-4-2 systems and sends long balls up to a diseased carthorse.

Nobody shows him up better than Potter. Brighton spend less money and have had their manager in place for the exact same amount of time. There is a clear and obvious difference: They've worked on their idea on how to play whereas we are at best organised. They show us up every time. It will not matter how many players Bruce is given, he'll never, ever come to the conclusion that football teams can be coached, not only trained. Potter is good at it too, which makes it even more telling.

We are what we are and he is what he is. He’s no coach so when we play well coached teams this happens. He’s just a pat on the back and 442 man an hope for the best some weeks will work others we will look useless. Ashely isn’t going to appoint a proper coach so this is our lot for now

 

Roll on next home game we might see 22 British and Irish players on the SJP pitch be just like the good old days
