Vive_La_Villa Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Didn't see yesterday's game but sounds like Bruce is setting us up to stiffle the opposition knowing that we have enough attacking talent to score when the chance comes. The guy got 4 teams promoted. He knows what he is doing and he will get us to the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikantcpell Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Why did he never play for England? He was a superb centerhalf in his days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I think when he gets tired we can bring Andre on. We've got a subs bench full of... Andre Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though we won that's never really a good thing. Usually means we are under pressure... If we were still playing now it would be Fulham 0. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted October 23, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm sure all the Fulham fans returned home delighted with their <60% possession whereas we had to settle for the three points. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop the rot of conceding late on or after we have scored re-ignite the fan base To return confidence to the players & staff. To get the team fit. allow individual players to recover their form, without duress. Agree 100% Quote He could well change and play more entertaining football, when he feels we are ready. Hmm, I think we'll have to wait till our 2nd season in PL for this. I think Dr T made it clear that 50+mill spent means, Get us promoted asap. Bruce knows how its done and will get us to the playoffs. From there its 50/50. If it takes another year to get us up Bruce will stick to his ways. He'll also be wary of coming straight back down (our current squad would not survive in PL imho) so Dr T will have to spend again. Getting us to play a type of football to compete with the likes of Soto & Everton will take us a good 2 years in PL For Europa L or Champ L we have to them be 6th/4th out of ManU ManC Chelsea Arsenal Spurs & Liverpool just take a lot at their managers pedigree (let along squad quality) Bruce will get us up - keep us up - but wont get within a whiff of Pep Jose Wenger Klopp Poch and whoever Abromivich appoints Edited October 23, 2016 by Grasshopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
