I still think he's a good player. I do get the impression that he's one of those players who seems confident on the outside but is actually quite insecure on the inside and needs managers who big him up and his role in the team. Currently I see a dressing room devoid of any inspiration from the management and none of the players benefit in those circumstances.

Las Ramblas gets packed in the summer, it's easy to see how one van could kill loads of people, as well as the resultant panic.

Ah shit

He'd be a decent replacement for Glenn Whelan, I'd say he's better and younger, the only problem is we've only just signed Whelan. So we would either be admitting Whelan is a waste of money already, or even worse, considering having both in the team. This is when money is tighter than it has been and a manager who cannot organise or coach the team properly at the moment. I'm with those who'd rather pay off Bruce and get someone else in with the money.

The simple solution is to give up social media. I wish more people would.

Probably Thiago. They should never have sold him and got Fabregas in.
-
I turned his interview off when he was mentioning how unlucky the goal was and it changed the game, when we were really getting royally dicked on, yet again.
-
I was hoping to wake up to him having resigned, but he actually seemed quite chipper in the post-game interview. Hopefully Tony sacks him but the resulting negative media reaction again will be unbearable.

I know stats in football are a load of shite generally, but the first half stats here make it look like we are a tinpot Spanish village team trying to keep out Barcelona. How we could have planned for this kind of tactic over the pre-season I have no idea. It would be nice if Bruce just stood down (barring something miraculous happening in the 2nd half).
-
What the hell has he actually done this summer?
-
I think Hogan is like a lot of players who stand out in the Championship, they bust their gut to get to that level and start having success, but then they get their big money move and it's almost like their level of expectation triples overnight. It's tough to handle for some, Kodjia being an exception as he rightly thinks he's the dog's bollocks.
-
They said in January that they'd brought most of this summer's budget forward to help Bruce sort the team out, so I don't see why people are surprised we've not spent that much. Judging from the way he's used the players he's bought so far, I can't say I'd have trusted him with more now anyway. We just need to coach and manage the players we have better.

Seriously what the **** was he playing at?

The banker loving, baby-eating Tory party thread (regenerated)
sharkyvilla replied to blandy's topic in Off Topic
I don't know whether someone younger like Johnny Mercer or Heidi Allen could do a Cameron and come from nowhere. If the election showed anything, it's that the Tories are still toxic to many people so would need to pick their next leader carefully as only a very few of their established MPs have any crossover appeal whatsoever. -
I finished Ozark as well, really good. The daughter did end up getting on my tits but mildly compared to Homeland and 24. The only other thing that bothered me was the amount of people to whom Marty just blurted out what he was doing. I think they could have been a bit cleverer with it like they would in Breaking Bad. Still a really good show and should have plenty of different avenues to go down in series 2.

The thing with Big Sam is that you'd know at the very least, a huge amount of drills will be done on the training ground for both boxes and I could only see us improving, and I'd say this is a good squad for his kind of style. He knows exactly what he's doing, which I don't think Bruce and Calderwood do. God knows what they've done on the training ground since being here. He or perhaps Pardew at a push I could accept, but I'd rather have someone like Jokanovic or the new breed of manager.
-
Yes, sounds very familiar.
-
Unfortunately I can't see him going soon. I also struggle to see him picking an XI that won't get annihilated by Reading either, so it's lose-lose.
-
We need Terry at centre half having ridiculously sold Baker. I think the earliest he could take the manager's job is when we mathematically can't get in the play offs.
-
Can't believe we've signed two right backs since last summer and Hutton not only is starting the season but got a new contract too. If anything sums up how shit we are, it's that.
-
After the last couple of weeks with the acid attacks being brought to my attention, today I've discovered on the news that shining laser pens at aeroplanes is a thing now too. What the **** is wrong with people?
-
I'd be surprised if he's lost the dressing room. The simple fact the team just had too many cloggers in it, with little quality, technical ability, pace or movement put together in a very basic formation. He's still probably really popular round the team and the club in general, but we have to face up to this is nowhere near good enough and we need something a lot more imaginative.
-
Things have been utterly shit since Calderwood came along. Wtf Bruce and the coaches have been working on I don't know, but it doesn't belong in the 21st century.
