Flew back to France today... Leaving Newcastle after fall out with Bruce. That the story of the day.. There was suggestion before Palace he'd fell out with Bruce.
The guy is a bit of a wimp. Hasn’t looked up for it for most of this season and invariably limping by half time. Think his agent is angling to move him on but must realise he has missed his best opportunity. Was at his best at the end of last season.
Think he gets kicked off the pitch tbh... Its our only outlet it was until Bruce moved him up top... He's been poor all season, but so has every player.. Only Joelinton ha improved, but that wasn't hard.. I'm sure max is a nightmare off the pitch, but when I see all the players playing badly and unhappy I start looking at the manager. I mean I don't think anyone could enjoy playing in that side... Its not fun it's just a, gruelling exersize routine
Very emotional person I think, so am I, so I also tend to fall out with people. So I can imagine how it might have been there. Obviously this has gone on for a few months, I suspect an issue being hes a plucky talented millenial and Bruce is an older guy being in the game longer than ASM's been alive. Bruce has had this problem with a few, I don't think Bruce woulda handled the talent or egos in Pardews sides. I dont even think ASM is that good, but I'd take him over Bruce. We can find any old **** to do the job hes currently doing.
Seen this over the years a few times mind. We have **** managers that force players out or manage badly.. Then the fans turn on the player... The player then leaves and does very well elsewhere...
Sounds like horseshit. Who has reported this? Bruce never mentioned in his interview. Been a bit of a pussy but he has been kicked from pillar to post.
Bruce's interview is always the same Let me guess Good morning, excuses, covid, I won't make any excuses, we were poor the last 15 minutes, the they're a very very good side, covid, thankyou
I think ASM was made promises on the back of the takeover and ofc it hasn’t happened. He wants away. I wouldn’t want to play in that team.
To be honest he just answered what they asked and seemed keen to get away. They are still banging on about COVID to him, he seemed a bit bored of being asked the same questions, couple of big exhales at the questions. Asked him about Leeds, said we were very naive. Nothing special really. But then I always laugh when fans get animated about interviews. Fans just make it up to suit their feelings about a specific manager. I don't know why they sink into to it deep, its irrelevant. Look at Jose. Just spends his whole time whinging about how other clubs have it easier. They all have their way I suppose. Mind they reckon ASM is a bit of a challenge to manage. Previous manager said so and said "lets just say its never dull". Very much his own man, terrible time keeping etc, and Bruce himself admitted previously he is difficult, but his words were "he's worth it".
Mate was just telling me he was talking to his cousin today who works in a jewellers and St Max came in to pick up some gold chains he ordered for Christmas and said he was going back to France for 3 to 4 weeks.
Because we're a **** club Watched this earlier, the Robson interview. The whole lot is great, going toe to toe with Barca but the last 15 seconds, he loved this club. But things have changed, we're now a **** club with a **** manager and **** players, all down to 1 fat greedy prick
I agree.... This is the harsh reality.. Nufc is a **** club, **** owner, **** manager, ****, coaches, **** training facilities, **** players, **** sponsors, **** strips, **** everything. That's the truth I mean ffs this is what we were!!!! When do you hear Bruce talk about a tactical decision like this 2.30 ????? Or show any passion and balls like this.
It actually would... The image of this club has been destroyed by our owner, so at lest that would remind people why 17th, playing crap football and getting lucky cup runs isn't an achievement for this club... Its making my piss boil...
