We've come close in recent weeks. Not literally, but getting the recipe right. An early success for ASM is all we need as a catalyst. I think that would relax him, and that would relax everybody else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I really like and admire him and I want him to do so well here. He’s a guy you can get behind and he totally gets us fans. There are a massive amount of pfm losers who’ve had longer careers in football in the top flight who aren’t half as likable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Second half was no backs to the wall stuff, it was well executed, I thought looking back, it took the first 45 for the players to get the system/tactics, that and Leeds were pretty aggressive on and off the ball pressing wise and putting pressure on the full-backs.

Dandy Man Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 He got a lot more right than wrong today. Generally think he has tried to address our tactical failings from one match to next and it's slowly moving in right direction. Looked to be very clear about keeping compact in midfield and not getting pushed back too deep late on. Also liked that we looked to slow game down whenever possible which helped break up Leeds momentum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I think he got the most out of the team today. Defensively we were as solid as could be hoped although this was helped by Leeds being awful in the final third. This felt like 3 points that we would never have got under Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consortium of one Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 This was not an easy game to manage with guys getting hurt and cramping up. He kept the team focused and reminded them constantly to defend further up the pitch. Nice, nice win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephant Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Delighted for him, I would love to be completely wrong about him, because I love this club more than I want to be right about something. Hopefully he can build on this, he has made big mistakes in previous games and hopefully he’ll learn from those. It’s still only one result and long way to go. He needs now support from our board with new players. We need to back him and get the necessary players in. Hopefully today convinced that we still have fight left and need players in for it.

LionOfGosforth Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) I like the man a lot and you can just tell that, although things haven't been great and we've often thrown points away, he's absolutely working his bollocks off to put it right. You can only admire that. He's probably put more work in since he came than Bruce bothered with the entire time. I desperately want him to succeed. Ultimately it comes down to results and so let's hope that's the first of a good few wins. Edited January 22, 2022 by LionOfGosforth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Really pleased for him. Said it in another thread but he's done brilliantly to galvanise the squad under these circumstances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWMag Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 And 5 of those 10 were against Arsenal, Man U, City, liverpool and Leicester - throw in missing his first game with covid and Clark’s howler against Norwich, not doing too bad so far. some of the stick he has got is undeserved and I really think people should wait to judge him until he has his own squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 This is a massive week, especially on the back of this result, it's now on the owners to really back him and give him at the very least 3 good players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce had us on 14.25 points, not even comparable He needs to try and string some wins together but the owners really need to have his back and get an absolute minimum of 3 players in Edited January 22, 2022 by Geordie Ahmed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some very positive signs today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
