    Also why the hell is everyone half decent injured? What kind staff have we got behind the scenes who can't keep the players halfway fit and healthy?:(

    In a winning team any 50:50 injured player will battle to get on the field. In the current team take any excuse you can to avoid being on the team sheet. No collective ownership. Every one in the team are their own little special snowflake.
     
    He's not indicative of the squad at all. Matic and Young? Yes. Grant? No. He doesn't play and isn't expected to play. He's a 3rd choice goalie. They are either older players like him or really young players like J.Pereira.

    If I highlight him as being past his prime, someone complains. If I don’t highlight him as being past his prime, some would complain he is. This place is too funny.
     
    Herrera and Fellaini. Oh wait, THEY were the deadwood..

    Although Andreas wasnt bad last game, if he can keep that up hes fine, rest are awful though.
    It shows badly on all the ‘Pogba out’ stuff that, as soon as he’s out, the level of quality available is scandalous
     
    We should play against anyone the way Wolves play.
    Eleven men behind the ball and hopefully grab a goal or two.
    Playing Newcastle or Barcelona play the same system and hope for the best.
    I remember ^real^ football not this shite.
     
    God we could do with a win, just a decent perfomance and some positves would be long overdue
     
    ugh listening to Ole he sounds like a fecking idiot on nbcsports interview. Says cant work on set patterns of play because of injuries. Um yeah, you still can. It is called a freaking philosophy. He sounds clueless and completely lost.

    Our board have managed to convince the fans that the 'deadwood' are the good players, not the actual deadwood.

    Herrera > every single midfielder we have apart from Pogba.
    Fellaini > Fred, Matic, Lingard and Mata.
    Lukaku > all of our strikers (in terms of actually scoring goals, albeit against small teams - the others don't even do that).

    Said before, Woodward deserves a medal for his skill. He is extremely good at his job, unfortunately for the fans. He might be the best spin doctor in football.
     
    Why is Ole so stubborn to start the Mata-Andreas-James ‘attacking’ midfield. Does my head in.
     
    'To send the players away after a good result would have been great.'

    Ole preparing his post-loss presser already.
     
    Come on let's just fecking win somehow. Tired of the gloominess.
     
    I get a bad feeling Maximin is absolutely going to destroy us today.

    You blame Woodward and the board. I'll blame Solskjaer because he's the one responsible.
     
    Play eleven behind the ball and try to hit them on the counter.
    Only way of winning in this day and age.
    Just forget who we are and just believe we're Rochdale and we might just win.
     
    I had felt like it would be at least a month or two or continued horrific results / performances before Ole feels real pressure where the sack is looming.

    Now I'm kind of feeling like it could be after this game, assuming we fail to win.

    Could things feel a bit imminent after failure here or do we think Ole is safe for at least as another month or so?
     
    :wenger: Do you guys think there is a transfer window between games that the fans dont know about or something? always when the squad/team is announcement there seems to be surprise/shock/disappointment :confused:

    Anyway, take out Mata for Greenwood and put Pereira in the middle and its probably the best team available

    That is what I'm hoping for second half, and Williams for Young.
    Would like to have seen Tuanzebe, Lindelof and Maguire in a back three with Dalot and Williams as attacking full backs, McTominay and Fred, with Pereira as AM, and Rashford and James.
     
    “It’s always hard to break teams down”

    “If we defend well, we can have counter attack opportunities ourselves”

    “We’ve to grasp the moments, because there won’t be many probably”

    Ole sounds confident.
     
    We must try everything to give hard time to this Newcastle side. Away game, point is good.

    All this shit was so hard to write

    He said that?
     
    Can't wait to see Mata plodding around as the game goes on around him. Happy days.
     
    Out of interest, how do you get a tag line
    You get noticed :D I was against Ole getting the job so obviously got a well deserved tagline. Normally it's the opposite of what you want.
     
    This today is the worst line up I've ever seen for a PL game . I don't want Ole to be sacked but if we lose today I fear he could be gone
