villa4europe Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Doing it his way... Starting Wilson, Carroll, Joelinton and Almiron (although Google has it down as a 4-4-2) When they lose those players are going under the bus Expect Emile Smith Rowe to further the buzz around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Pulled the 4-4-2 out the hat this week. Good times. 5-3-2 one week abandoned at half time then 4-4-2 the next week abandoned after an hour then back to 4-5-1 you played prior for 5 months. It's textbook Brucey. FM novice. We tactics and coaching ain't working so I'll just pull a new formation out my arsehole and hope for the best. Samba in a back 3. 4-4-2 with Hogan and Gabby. Shudders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got it in for me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a new 4-2-4 by the looks of it, he was watching some videos of the 1950s games. He is just the ultimate tactical hipster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I mean, he'll say its the quality of the players not the system, he has to play defensive football because they're not good enough to do anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He basically said he's going to stop aping Benitez's tactics even though the players seem to prefer them (for some weird reason!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure he said the same at Villa after a period of poor form, it’s just another of his tactics. Edit - tactics is clearly the wrong word to use in the context of Bruce!

Keyblade Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 He already has his excuse ready if they get thumped. "See, this is what happens when I try to play attacking football with this squad". 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
