Demitri_C Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Bruce refusing to play him despite Hogans injury. Not even a place on the bench. Tell me Bruce how are we better having two rbs on our bench than having mccormack? even a out of form mccormack has managed more goals than hogan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are obviously issues, it's been alluded to on her by a number of people on here. I also have a been told by a work colleague who supports Leeds there was talk of him going there but comments had been made on a Leeds forum that he had marriage and drink issues at present. Whether that is true or not none of us know. However that only highlights to me that whatever issues that McCormack has supporters from all over, not just Villa, know that something isn't right with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, there is definitely more to it than we know. It's not a stick I'll be using to beat Bruce with. I know he came out and said Ross looked decent in training and was working hard, but I wonder how much of that was aimed at any potential suitors listening? IF the guy is mentally and physically right to play, then I think we'd be mad not to try and use him in some way, especially now. I'm not convinced he is though.

But what I would say if this was happening at most 9-5 jobs you are expected to get on with it. Edited August 16, 2017 by Demitri_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known people book time off work, a week or two holiday, when dealing with marital problems. When I broke up with a girlfriend a while back, I'm sure I booked a day off or two because I didn't fancy going in to work after spending a night arguing with an ex. It's not as simple as that for a footballer, so I don't think the 'Well a normal person couldn't do it' stance is fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 So your best forward is injured, your £15m centre forward is doing nothing in your system, so you leave a £12m striker with over 100 goals at this level in the stands? Makes absolutely no sense at all whatsoever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get we are all frustrated, but your saying it makes no sense, without really knowing the whole story? Maybe he is fine and Bruce is just being Bruce, but I think there's more to it tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your having maritial problems they may give you a couple days to sort your head out if you are lucky or no the new trend is take A/L if you wnat time off. Its not right but thats how a lot of companies are today. But do we even know if this 100% the case or just rumours? 45 minutes ago, bobzy said: Hello society dinosaur, how are you today?

Villarocker Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 People are questioning why McCormack couldn't make the bench last night and explanations being offered are speculative based on his previous well known misdemeanours. However, what explanation can be given for O'Hare not to make the bench? Maybe it is just a case of the manager and his coaching staff not seeing what others see?
