What a joke, we are getting overwhelmed week after week and that clown picks a virtually unchanged team. Colo apologizing in the program means ****, it's on the field we need to see it. Getting to the point where I couldn't give a damn anymore
The sad thing for me is, I think every fan, no matter the tactics, would do as well as McLaren with these lads. Personally, if I were in charge, I'd play 5 at the back. I'd tell them they aren't ****ing good enough to play the offside trap, so they have to defend what's in front of them. I'd then have a diamond in midfield and play Cisse up top because he is the only actual striker we have. ----------------------Eliot----------- -Janmaat--Mbemba-Colo-Willo-Dummett -----------------------Tiote------------- ----------------Colback--Sissoko----- --------------------------Wij--------------- -------------------------Cisse-------------- Would you look at that, most of them are in actual positions they ****ing play in! I mean, except Dummett, who either drops in for Williamson or drops to the bench if Mbabu or Haidara are fit. Counter-attacking, allowing Janmaat as the only player in our squad with any talent out wide to get forward, and narrow as **** in midfield to stop us getting steam-rollered, while Wij can play the box-to-box role he wants.
We have 4 central midfield players in today and have Ayoze and Mitro on the bench. Our plan is to make Pool think were ****e then surprise them by being good?
Problem is he already fought the last stand and lost, feast or famine today, odds on Liverpool have a fun day but one of those ones where the gods show their capricious face and against all odds we win, I will not be doing any breath holding though
It feels to me like the word 'mclaren' has replaced the word 'pardew'. Is it the managers we attract (if that is the correct turn of phrase) or something that happens to them the moment the walk into the managers office I wonder. My pain will be worse than most at the end of the match as Mr M is a bin dipper and hasn't exactly shown any tact or empathy after a Liverpool win in the past. Btw, Colo will get sent off.
I think we might get a result today. They have nothing to lose and just need to close them down and play compact.
There's only so many times he will fall for that one. I was thinking more along the lines of 'accidentally' throwing something heavy and sharp directly at the tv screen the moment the fourth Liverpool goal goes in. The pain of not being able to see the remaining three or four goals would be so much worse than the pain any laxative can do
I'm pleased de Jong has started at least. If he can get up to pace a bit then I think he could help the situatios as he probably had the best footballing brain in our squad.
I think it is truly admirable when someone is not afraid to come out and talk about what really matters ...!
