If they sit in for 60 mins, the game will be over before the last 30. I hope Bruce thinks like you tbh.

Hopefully you're correct as I'm no fan of teams keeping 10 behind the ball.

Apparently it's a legitimate tactic and not just boring as **** <whistle>

You're right Jammy is speaking like a ****ing Redknapp for Christ sake.

They 100% have the legs to go for it a full game, they've done it plenty of times. They simply don't have the interest nor the instruction to go about it.

If Bruce changes from the back five, plays a formation that allows for us to use pace on the ball, allows Hayden to play in the middle to add some tackling and tracking to our midfield, we will have a much better chance to absorb some pressure and hit you on the counter. If he plays a formation we simply do not have the players for, we will lose by 5 goals. You'll simply turn our wings inside out and pick out whatever pass you like.

If Bruce watched our game in the week he should be tasking Saint Maxim to do a Harvey Barnes at every opportunity...

Don't think Bruce has ever watched a match he's not playing in or managing tbh.

He often says things like "if you look at the other teams, they've gone through a bad patch too" but its blatantly obvious he's just googled their results before the interview.

The difference is, we have manager who’s capable of winning by both methods, as he knows the strengths and limitations of his squad.

Much rather that than a manger wedded to a ‘philosophy’ who won’t change irrespective of the players available or the opposition. We had one of them in Martínez, the poundshop Pep.

Martinez was hated on by Kevin De Bruyne for that very thing in the last internationals tourney I recall.

Hes a ****ing clown, his sides can’t defend for ****. He gets away with it on the International stage as he’s not helping coach them every day of the week. He didn’t even practice defending set pieces when he was with us, as he reckoned the percentage of goals conceded from them, didn’t warrant the effort. Guess what? We ended up sieving goals from set pieces. I ****ing hated him for nearly 18 moths before he finally got shot in the face. A total fraud him.

We went from dynamic football under O'Leary to pretty triangles the Venables way..oh and Nick Barmby.

That's why we were relegated **** all to do with having no money <whistle>

The coaching staff at Belgium is an odd collection like Henry has proven he's an arrogant useless clown to high on his own farts and Martinez is mediocre at best, or as ****e as you say.

Imagine how much they could win with a proper manager with proper staff.
