trooper 940 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I can't help thinking that McClaren is now reading from the script left by Pardew. He said something about us being "tremendous" on Saturday it was a boring first half & within 10 minutes of the second half we were 2-0 down ok we pulled one back we were far from tremendous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being funny, but it'll work (and has worked) on a sizable number of the fans, so it's probably worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 9007 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Absolutely but "tremendous" come on we were far from tremendous. If we're going down the route of pulling a football manager up on his word choice, we may have very little time in the day to moan about his tactics.

It's not just Saturday though is it its week in week out as I said it feels like he's now reading from Pardew old script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 9007 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 It's not just Saturday though is it its week in week out as I said it feels like he's now reading from Pardew old script. To be fair, we've been playing some decent football, the issue is that we're not taking our chances and we're giving away stupid chances at our end. To say we've been tremendous may be overestimating it, but the message is clear. We're playing ok and sorting things out in either box will soon see us winning games. I have anticipated every jibe, joke and glib remark that you're all yearning to make and it's all water off a duck's back, so I wouldn't bother if were you.

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Looks like a bad injury for De Bryune, great young player and shit with coming up to the euros, arguably Man citys best player alongside agueroBad news for my dream team too. I had my transfers all sorted but it looks like I'm going to need a rethink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Howard Webb has just claimed that a West Ham penalty shout that was identical in every way to Mbembas, wasn't a penalty. However it was a penalty when it went against his beloved Man U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
