McCann in ? Or out ?

We will be stuck with Grant for some time yet and his beloved tactics and the same 11.
Coventry’s away form isn’t great but that will make no difference.
Then West Brom away (I am going to the game) I must be mad.

 

I'm almost certain he'll be gone within 10days of the takeover

 

What was McCants risk in changing it..... get sacked for improving results even IF he went against the boys wonder tactics, or showing himself off if he knew a takeover was imminent... there was no risk, they were and are his tactics and the second he is gone, close after the gruesome twosome, this club has the chance to breathe...

 

Well let’s hope we are not too far adrift by the time it happens because you can write off the next 2 games and we all know how good we are in a six-pointer.

 

It's a pity the reporters union doesn't arrange for all the media not to go and have an empty room. Maybe then he might realise what a total twat he is.

 

He has got absolutely nothing worth listening to. The next manager is going to be left with a lot of work to do as we will likely be bottom of the league.
I can’t wait till he ****s off.

 

it will be a fitting finale to his championship abilities as Derby County go above us just before he leaves

 

I think this is a reasonable thing to say. I don't know where this thing of Coyle being crap has come from. Emmanuel is very good so I can understand the clamour for bringing him in when we're not getting results, but I think Coyle is being unfairly scapegoated.

 

I notice Mike White asked him to explain this thing about "playing a certain way" to which he gave a really strange answer basically denying that results are the important thing.

I heard someone discussing the Norwich manager on a podcast the other day, theorising that he's good at managing a team who are at the top end of a division, but can't dig in and defend when they're a small fish in a big pond. I think that seems like a good summary of McCann too. Being wedded to attacking football when it's leaving you so exposed just seems a recipe for another bottom-placed finish.

 

Clearly a team wedded to attacking football by the number of goals we're scoring - oh, hang on. He talked about wanting the full backs to attack - they would surely have more freedom to do so if we went to 3-5-2. I just don't see that as a defensive formation. Although it might make us stronger defensively too. Expect same old same old on Saturday.

 

McCann's reply to a question put to him by RH Mike White, regards how the team are set up and play, is priceless "I will be judged on results" absoulutly deluded.

 

Just catching up.

He should have been fired off after relegation.

He should have subsequently been fired off after promotion.

He should now be fired off before relegation is inevitable.

Cheapest & most sensible option for me would be to offer the role to Huddlestone in a caretaker manager capacity with the option to revert back to playing if any new owners want their own man.

 

Puddled to ****

 

When he says "I'm one of the biggest winners you'll come across" I had to turn off...it was either that or snap my laptop across my own head.

Guy is dillusional!

 

Sometimes people should just put the spade down and stop digging!!!

 

Yeah, it's strange that we still don't actually score any goals despite being so determined to play this way, which McCann at least says is attacking.

I don't particularly think any formation is necessarily attacking or defensive. Our 352 under Bruce certainly wasn't boring, but we were very solid in the exact way that we could do to start being now.
