If I seem a little cranky, it's because I'm so used to being at games, that I'm not very good at not being at them.
Its not only that Craig. SB identified correctly in my eyes we were weak in the CM. Got rid of Mckenna as soon as, Evans he's subbed 3 times in the last 6 -7 games. We were always linked with Meyler, We were linked with Vaughan and Palacios. If he wants to try Bruce there, fair enough. Try Chezzy there or get in an emergency loan. Not many want Roko off the front man, especially Roko, but SB does it. He knows what he's doing.
TBH I can't think of many occasions when Bruce has let the team down and therefore made his selection dubious. If anything Chester has a worse record with errors this season. I reckon it's quite brave of SB to regularly pick AB because he knows he'll get disproportionately criticised if his own son ****s up.
SB isn't picking AB because he's his son. He's picking him because he is performing well when he plays. That said, all of them having come into the team and performed when selected. I understand if you were complaining if we were losing 3-0, but we aren't... Support the team and the manager selected guys and lighten up
That's all fair enough, but we've got Faye, who's played defensive midfield on many occasions in the past, is he not the obvious choice? I'd have gone for Chester ahead of Bruce too, despite it not working all that well when he was tried there previously. I think you need some technical ability to play in midfield, being a brave hoofer isn't ideal.
Goal scored by Aaron Mclean from outside the penalty box high into the middle of the goal. Ipswich 3-0 Middlesbrough. Goalkeeper prone?
The thing is,i think he does select the best players based on merit. If we don't get it then hey,he's the manager,he knows what he wants to do. I don't think i'm a **** but if you do,hey
