If this fella now decides against playing Mangala in the middle with Idrissa, then it just proves what we all already know. That he is totally inept as a coach.
I said after the United game that it was totally illogical to start Doucoure ahead of him. Mangala does not excel in any one area of the game but he is comfortable at everything. His main aim is to look after the ball and retain possession, which none of our players seem capable of doing. Most importantly, the fact that he is so good at screening the defence and happy to play his part, it allows Idrissa to go and do what he is best at, which is press the opposition and put out fires.
These 2 should be starting our games at every single opportunity, fitness permitting.
In other news, I see we are still not creating chances for DCL to score. Poor lad.

Dacoure needs to drop out now. He just doesn't have the legs, by the time he gets the ball he's too knackered to do anything with it.

I’ve said it before mangala looks a quality player.

moaning about something that might not happen just for the sake of it.

Personally, I like to win 4-0, I honestly don't see any wrong in it . . .

Who isn't relaxed Wblue2?
I am not guilty of confusing football with life and death. It is simply a game of football and nothing more. I learnt long ago not to let these players and this game impact my state of mind too much.
Perhaps back when the players fought and cared for the club like the fans do, it struck a little deeper when things didn't go well but I am under no illusions that the players could not give a s*** about any of us, so why would I waste getting over-emotional about it all.
That being said, I am a paying fan and absolutely entitled to comment on my teams performance, especially on the respective fans forum.
I was merely making the point that Mang and Idrissa should have long been our starting midfielders. I imagine if that was the case, then we would have far more points on the board than we do now. If he now decides to change it up again and play Douc's in there, it just proves again that he should not be managing this football club.
That's all mate - relax!
Moaning about something that might not happen just for the sake of it? He has literally changed the midfield pair more often than not this season. This part of the pitch is as vital as the backline having continuity.
Can I take your personal email down so that I can run any posts by you before I hit the "post" button next time?

It’s a banter site chaps, and I don’t think we should stop the banter just because we achieve the odd win. Good win yes, but their were still issues to discuss, that’s all BN was doing.

4-0 and all they can do is still moan.

It’s not moaning, it’s a bloody discussion site. Yes we won four nil, but it was far from perfect, and if not for Pickford could have been a very different result.
Guarantee if we get hammered at the weekend you will be one of the first on here to have a go.
