Was an interesting one on set pieces with Wayne Rooney of all people the other day. He has 3 players line up on the d sprinting in and one in far edge of 18 yard box. Instruction is to bend it outwards to penalty spot have the 4 players sprint and it’s impossible to defend against or that was his theory.
I agree. Got too big for his boots, let the fame get to his head and turned in to a knob. Rather than sticking to a subject he could talk in with authority thought he became the voice of football, poker, darts, ufc and boxing. I’ve seen him offer out Connor McGregor simply coz he’s bigger
He got cancelled for some comment about muslims, some of the people on the kick off left and created "the club" or something, which is dog ****.
What he’s said has been written in this forum and many others for 12 months. He just has a platform to spout it. Nobody disagrees with most of it. I disagree with the trippier comments, he’s a ****ing liability and ever since he got caught shagging about the first team has been in disarray.
Anyone not questioning the coaching and management at this point just doesn't want to, but it never stopped them with previous managers. Jesus there's a better life after Howe imo if he's replaced. It really isn't looking good at the moment and I don't think it'll get better. One window and a good manager and we might score from a corner one day I think.
We had literally a couple of corners about 2 years ago that were really well worked and caught teams out. It looked promising. But since then nothing. Something needs to change with our set piece coaching generally.
I'm a misery guts and try to be funny with my negativity, but this is for real and what I watched Today I'm not sure I've ever seen before....not one effort on goal! Corner after corner after corner..... I'm looking down the table now.
