So, twelve points clear of the bottom 3 now and a plus 8 goal difference, so effectively 13 points. Bottom 3 now basically need +5 wins to overtake us out of remaining 7 games.
yeah he did the same through Xmas and buckled a few key players, but it's got us the points needed to stay up so I'm not fussed... we would lose to city anyway, so he should be resting players in that. 2 games a week so it's the only chance to rest anyone.... he's ran max into the ground too.. he'll end up pulling his hammy again on Sunday .
It's all luck. Or is it Rafa's tactics? As for the cup, considering we beat Sheffield United we should have rotated tonight and put out our best side against Manchester City otherwise no point getting this far
We were crap. Akin to the usual Bruce tripe that we have been served up this season. More squad rotation is required. Max is going to get injured at this rate through over playing. He does everything. If we don't get taken over, he will leave!
he will just do as he did at Xmas... he'll run players into the ground then blame injuries and fixture congestion this is a major flaw in his ability... he simply doesn't rotate.
I think managers try and influence things too much during games... I don't like the type that a bellowing instructions for 90 mins... means the players can't play and question everything...
