The real joke is that it's the same every bloody game. We're so poor going forward, whoevers in the team. It's laughable. We were ****e at Wolves.
Anyone else seen the goal? ****ing **** from Mcgregor. We may have played **** but its still a GK error giving them the goal.
If we'd kept Rosenior and spent £2 million on Bentley instead of Moses we'd have a better right-back and a better goalkeeper.
Clucas was LB. I think he's too slow for that role. Elmo and Meyler had a misunderstanding that led to the goal. I'd like to see it again, but it looked like a loose pass from Elmo to me. And yes, mcG managed to palm it right back into the danger zone.
4-4-2 Meyler off because he got a yellow and had made a few mistakes City's performance was pretty similar to Charlton match
Clunas seemed to cover all the left side Mcgregor made a good save he couldn't be expected to do any more
How some of you lot will react after the very real possibility of losing 3 on the trot doesn't bear thinking about....
I don't think these comments are down to us losing a couple of games, it's down to us looking clueless for eighteen months.
17 months of that 18 were spent in the richest league in the world in which we were comparatively a tiny tiny club still utilising a squad including many players from our time in the Championship. In the 1 other month we have been using a largely new team. ****ing football fans these days, I'm sure 15 years ago people understood that you lose games and it's fine.
Bruce should have been sacked last Dec & Pulis (who was available & just waiting for one of the bottom 5 to approach him) brought in to replace him. If that had happened we'd still be in The Premiership (as WBA still are). Very bad error by the Allams to allow their "friend" to carry on & take us down. Did they not see Bruce's last season at Sunderland repeating itself ? The squad we had should never have been relegated. We have no idea how to attack & that is down to the cautious style of play dictated by the manager. It will be the same old story again this season. Did I not see an article in the HDM this week saying that since his appointment Bruce has not had a striker who has scored more than 10 goals a season ? I wonder why ? Nothing to do with the style of play & the baffling tactics that Bruce employs ? I've been watching City for over 40 years & all I want to see is my team attempt to put the opposition on the backfoot, attack & score goals. Under Steve Bruce I have given up any hope of us doing that, no matter which 10 outfield players he selects. It really is a case of the blind leading the blind.
We're not in that league now and the reverse applies, we have largely a Premier League squad, yet we still look poor. I also believe we're no longer in the 'richest league in the world' because the manager didn't know what team to put out and his negative approach cost us far too often. He's gradually losing the fans, at many other clubs he'd have lost them a year ago.
Keep watching matches from the 80s Just like I remember them,attacking agressive football. Roberts Swann Payton ahhhhh
Compare Bruce's management style, his tactics and square peg round hole selections, to someone like Eddie Howe and people would surely want rid of Bruce. The only thing that keeps him here are the Allam's and the indisputable fact that he knows how to get teams promoted from the second tier, but, even compared to some of the football we played under Pearson, it's ****ing tediously boring to watch. Anyway I'm off to Cyprus next Wednesday for a couple of weeks and I'd appreciate somebody sorting out the problems by the time I get back.
