Dr Jinx Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Peak handsome at Newcastle was Cabaye.. and he could play! Probably the best midfielder in a similar role we’ve had since Rob Lee.  Leaves a bad taste that he wasted the second half of his best years at Palace.

As he goes along the road a bloke comes up to the car. Starts giving him some stick, swearing at him, so he carries on. Goes along a bit further and another bloke comes up, “gazza you fucking traitor, fuck off. So he carries on getting sick of the grief he’s getting. A bloke comes up to the car and starts mooning him, gazza looks up and says “and Beardsley you can fuck off as well!”  I’ve butchered that joke horribly like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I don't think Fonseca did well at Roma. But I don't know the details. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toontimes Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Based on the various videos on YouTube Fonseca’s style of football can be exciting to watch, but is also high risk. His Roma side scored freely but also conceded at will too.  His style requires all the team to be technically proficient and needs centre-backs and a goalkeeper who are comfortable on the ball. Midfielders need to get box-to-box at speed and the wing-backs need to excel.  So with our current squad what could possibly go wrong? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toontimes Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 The video already posted in this thread from Tifo football gives a great explanation of his tactics at Roma where he employed a fluid 3-4-3 formation. I have linked to it again below.  I think at this point in time we need someone who can adopt a more pragmatic approach to  avoid relegation.  Link here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should just bring Allardyce in? Is that what you want?  The whole shite pundits peddle about you need a proven Premier league manager who has been there done it is absolute horse shit. What you need is the best manager you can find. There are 30 games left to play and the squad, whilst lacking in a couple of areas is far better than its position in the league. Bruce kept this squad up for 2 seasons ffs and he is about the worst manager I think we've had in terms of tactics, training and fucking off the fans.  HORSE SHIT Edited October 20, 2021 by relámpago blanco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
