Hes admitted dropping another clanger on the skysports website by not dropping Henderson sooner. Not only that but he hasnt even been playing him in his right position.
To those who say it's too late to make a change...a good example VERY close to home is...Peter Reid. He had 7 games to save us and he made an immediate impact. Granted the situation in the short term is not as dire but looking to next season surely something needs to be done either now or very soon after the season finishes (which is more realistic). We have 2 brilliant options in Van Gaal and MON but I reckon MON is never going to be our manager just like Cloughy never was...nearly but just didn't happen! Unfortunately in my opinion...we will keep Bruce. NQ will blame everything on Bent leaving, while Bruce will blame everything and anything! In other words they will try to pull the wool over our eyes. As someone said, MON is 59 now and would surely relish the chance to manage his boyhood heroes! Alas....NQ is way to soft to get Bruce the sack. One person I haven't mentioned...Ellis Short. He is the key man here like...he is the one that needs to sack him (Bruce) as NQ obviously won't do it. If I was Short there is no way I would give Bruce anymore money to spend....would any of you??? Bruce has the players, has had money to spend and has had the backing of everyone but just can't seem to motivate anyone (including us fans!) We all know what should be done....but I can gaurentee you all this - there is know way that Bruce will get the sack either now or in the summer cos we as a club haven't got the nous or the bottle!
I am still puzzled how someone who had us clear in 6th can oversee a run of 1 point in 24 and a catastrophic plunge down the table. I mean, he must have been doing something right, so why are we crap now? If we could get O'Neill in I wouldn't complain, or even better if Chelsea win the CL, Mourinho's obvious route back to the Prem is blocked and I am sure he'd jump at the chance to ruin his reputation with us
When we were in 6th I don't personally feel we were playing that well mate, we were getting the rub of the green as it were. Chelsea apart, there was some very negative football played when we could have won games by a lot more goals. Top teams don't stop attacking and hold what they have, they rip the arse out of the opposition. Smarter man the me said "The opposition can't score if you have the ball in their half"
