TBH Fonz should have come on for Heskey yesterday instead of Marc
-
Did well at Middlesborough and Twente.
Did poor at Wolfsberg and England.
50:50. No thanks.

I'd be devastated if we had McClaren

In my opinion I think we would have had a poor season like this even with MON in charge. There's a reason he walked and this season was it. He got out at the right time to save his CV.
No **** way would we have been flirting with relegation if MON has stayed. Not a chance. He may have left in part to save his CV, but whilst we may have gone backwards, I very much doubt we'd have even dropped out of the top half.
I wouldnt be surprised if we had this under MON, wasn't it Warnock, Friedel, NRC, L.Young,Cuellar and then the layabouts like Beye, Davies and Sidwell
who were said to not want to ever play for MON again? I forget who said it now I think it was MM a few weeks back that a load of player (I think it was those above) who didnt want to play for MON again.
And even though this was the case and that players hated him, he still refused to lower the wage bill and move on the ageing players and overpaid reserves. We had to lower the wage bill and we now have.
At the end of the season our wage bill could well be around £45m *almost halved since start of last season *. And while we will have a massive gap in our squad, to be honest its only really the older, overpaid and shit players we will be losing [bar the Youngs and NRC]. We were always going to have to do a major rebuild, just unfortunately its going to have to be done all in one summer.
That doesn't mean Houllier was a great appointment it just means getting rid of MON was a good thing for the club. Yes Houllier has been a bit of a train wreck and we should maybe be looking elsewhere. But we have to ask whether the realistic appointments we could make will just be MON 2.0 or whether they can take us forward further.
(Yes i understand we'd kill to be top 6 right now, but taking on a manager who can only get top 6 again is just pointless, we need somebody who can build us to a top 6 for the next couple of seasons and then start to break the glass ceiling when the big spenders can no longer spend come the 13/14 season.)

This. We are now on 42 points which would equal our worst points total in a 38 game Prem season with Arsenal and Liverpool to play. Last season we achieved our best ever points total in a 38 game Prem season.
I feel as though I've read this before.
Oh wait..
-
Hope we wait till 88mins to give Fonz or Delph (Read: Pires) to win us the game.
-
Der Hammers gives West Ham a lifeline.
-
Lucky again, shit defending.
-
3 wingers, 2 'wing'backs and Bent is having to put crosses in. jesus christ.
-
-
Walker should have seen Ash then.
-
Agreed packo.
lol like 10 wigan fans.
-
Delph should be coming on for Petrov here, NRC has been solid defensively get some pace in the mid.
-
close from Young to Bent, maybe should have done better.
-
Wigan 75% possession in last 5 mins
-
What the **** is Dunne doing.
-
I'd agree need somebody creative smack in the middle of the park, Why Young, Downing and Albrighton were nowhere near Bent then i'll never know, they should all be breaking quickly with him.
-
That was our throw! bounced off their players face/chest as he fell down.
-
Great tackle by Downing.
-
we dont look dangerous at the minute
-
Dunne is one of the worst defenders in the world
-
Looks as though Ash might have to come off. Fonz on then? would hope BRadley wouldnt come on yet and be yet another formation change.
-
back to Young in the hole again then.
-
45% possession, 100% Shots on Target
Wigan - 55% possession 75% shots on target
