Rafalove Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Today was shocking, not even trying to score. Not just today but you can make the same accusation about our team for the last 3-4 years. Who else has been as boring as this? Pulis’ Stoke? Big Sam’s Bolton?

ElDiablo Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Bottom, well clear of second bottom. Rancid shite. Edit - meant in terms of the 20 teams in the league currently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Think we are probably one of the worst ever. The most disgusting, turgid shit. Sam's bolton played an actual system and had a plan. We are like oldham or some shit from the inception of the premier league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 We are the worst. Close the thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjohnson Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 On the pitch comfortably the least entertaing team. Off it got to be near the top...at least for fans of other teams...although West Ham run us close Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 A team that doesn't create any chances or shots on goal has to be way down there. So yep, head and shoulders we are the shittest team to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexumaster Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 At least when we played with 5 at the back under Rafa there was cohesion and a bit of an understanding in how we'd counter if given the chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 We’re probably the most pointless team in the premiership. We offer nothing. No excitement, no entertainment. Nothing. We’ve replaced sunlun as the turd that won’t flush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjohnson Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Alternatively...we are the most entertaining for everyone else to watch...we consistently make their teams look like prime Barcelona, or Brazil 70 and who doesn't want to see their own team destroying the opposition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 It's Bruceball. It's not like there's a plan his team fail to enact, it's that his players have no idea what they're supposed to be doing. Beyond a slap on the back and an encouraging word, Bruce just doesn't do tactics. It's the same everywhere he goes. To be fair, if you're a support of, say, Hull City, and he's getting results when you're not used to getting results, he's probably the second coming. If you're a Newcastle or Villa fan, though, where the expectations - of at least something entertaining to watch - are just that little bit higher, he's totally out of his depth. Us and you are the highlights of his managerial career, and I think one spin-off of that is that he feels extra pressure to get results, which too often translates into "do your best, try not to lose". As I said on that Bruce thread, I distinctly recall my dad, when Bruce was at Blues, going on about how the results were OK but the football was the worst he'd ever seen.

toon25 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Even Pulis and that god awful Stoke side had a plan. The shit we get served up is aimless horse shit. Literally relying on individuals to string together attacking moves and organise defensively. No game plan. No intention to win. No tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocker Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 We're horrible to watch. It's embarrassing. 3 years of hard work pissed down the drain. Fuck you Steve Bruce. Fuck you Mike Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 It’s starting to remind me of Pardew. We rely on moments from players yet never look like scoring until it happens. The only difference is Pardew had better players to hide his awful tactics. I don’t actually dislike Bruce though, I quite like how he defends his players to a certain extent but he isn’t good enough at this level and shouldn’t be here. To answer the question though I think we do play the worst football in the league. Most clubs have some sort of identity or system. We’re all of the place. I think we’ll be relying on three worse clubs again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocker Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 If I was Bruce, I'd ask for a young, up and coming assistant manager to take reigns of the tactical side of the game, and training. He can then continue to blow smoke up their arses and be a 'man manager'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWN Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The point got the cunt out of jail, it was horrendous and but for Darlow it would be 6-1 The last 2 games have made good players look terrible and that’s down to the plan As if we have one Genuinely the worst side(manager ) I’ve seen in the top flight in a black n white shirt and I’m over 50 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Without a doubt. Look devoid of any plan whatsoever. The Shelvey-Hayden partnership in the middle is painful to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
