Bruce will never ever drop jonjo.. Its actually becoming embarrassing. He's costing us the chance of signing willock a future England player imo
Bruce had a shocker second half. Shelvey was ****. Longstaff was also crap. We need two new cm next season.
Shelvey didn’t tackle because he’s a lazy **** - had nothing to do with a yellow. It was all 11 of them too, absolutely pathetic. Manager is ****e. Still not the reason for that second half. 100% down to the players for me. Obviously we know you’ll try to pin it on Bruce
Well his opening line was what I said above, which is basically him saying the job is difficult because of the fans
I didn't think almiron had his best game today mind, but gave 100% and was a pest. Shelvey I have no words for how bad this player is yet he's out there e dry minute of every game.
In all seriousness shelvey should've been off.. He was worse than **** even 11 vs 11. It doesn't take much to l lw on a yellow you take him off and get someone with mobility on instead. Bruce was the reason we held back mate it's really that simple Why are you denying that?
And Bruce confirms he told them to go after them, don’t go deep. As I suspected, it’s 100% the players. Honestly they’re just ****. Even when the oppo is down to 10, youve got the chance to muller someone, they’d rather have 45mins off.
Bruce had an option to change it. He didn’t until they scored goal 2. Why not do it when it was the right time. Bruce doesn’t make the right calls. The players where poor. Yes. Shelvey couldn’t make a tackle. He’s out. Longstaff was crap. Miggy literally made the wrong decision every time. But game management comes from the manager mate. He nearly ****ed yo a 2 goal lead against 10 men.
You believe what he says? He said he gets fan mail, I thought he was lying on that too but you probably sent him it
Bruce has just confirmed they were told to go after them, don’t sit deep. We have our answer where the fault lay for the 2nd half. For sure Shelvey shouldn’t be playing. For sure he should have been taken off. Zero to do with the 2nd half performance though. We’ve just got lazy players.
So again bad management. He tells them not to. They do. They ignored him. He watches. And erm.........watches..... and does **** all. Then when he HAS to make a change because he’s left it to long he brings Willock on (who should have come on about 25 mins earlier) and bang. He is a **** manager...... Because he can’t manager a situation and he can’t manage the players.
Where’s the Sunderland fans today. Eating their bacon sandwiches with 6 digits each hand........ Looking like we won’t be playing each other after all. Hows the bacon you say!?
Game management comes from players on football mainly fella, they are on the pitch. Always been the case at any level of football. He’s a **** manager. He should have made changes. However that attitude has been confirmed as down to the players. I’m not surprised, this is the stamp of some of players we have.
One of which is Shelvey. Who he kept on the pitch. I agree the players where lazy. But it’s up to the manager and his team to motivate them. He just sat there blowing bubbles most of the 2nd half.
