Blame Ole, Blame Tan, Blame Malky

But not the players. Players like Mutch, Medel and Cambell, who are the backbone in the team have not been up to the task.
Players like KTC, Turner, Jones and Kim not making anything but liability. Players like Zaha and Bellamy not making any difference when they are suppose to be gamechangers. I am not critizising Whittingham, he is a model professional.
Fabio, i dont know. Got better, but not good enough. Cala the same. John a kid. Taylor, Cowie, well..
That leave Marshall, Caulker and Daelhi. Only three players showing consistanly playing level, how can you stay up when only three players up for it? And to top it off, NO STRIKER. Im not playing the blame game, but i know what needs to be done!

It is pathetic how defensive people become of both Mackay and Solksjaer. Some people on here literally despise Mackay. If they heard him talk about the club they'd probably change their tune.

Yes I have defended Mackay, but I also like Solksjaer. The people that hate Mackay seem to think it is 'us against them', with their little flags after every post :ole: to prove some sort of point. The fanbase has never been so separated.

The players have been managed badly. First season in the top flight and we've had 2 managers with an interim. Two completely different styles (apparently, as some of the football under solksjaer has suicide inducing).

Tan has ruined the club.

I won't blame the players as they do try, it is just they are being managed badly and have a completely and utter circus going on in the background. I don't blame Solksjaer for that either, he is a rookie in British football and he does have tan circling above him.

It's a mixture of everything not just one guy , the arguments on all these threads are pointless nobody is 100% right and nobody is 100% wrong . It's been a f**k up from start to finish .

The fans also should take some blame IMO because we have been pathetic at home in most games

And when you look at the team under both managers they are not up to it. Some times we did very good under Malky and sometimes we looked like Liverpool under Ole. But there is no consistancy under any manager or in any playing style. You cant blame this on nothing but the player material really, or the one who bought them. both Malky and Ole. Saying its bad man management is bullshit, because man management dosent prevent you from striking a ball clean. In my experience you battle the space in championship, but use it in the premiership. That is man management and tactics, which both ole and malky failed big time. But like me i guess many of you have the games on your pvr recorder. Sign up an account at squawka, pop a can of beer And have a look at it. And don't get me started on pace in the team. But on the bright side we have some very good young talent at the club which leave some glimmer of hope for the future. The biggest lesson learned is that you cant buy 4 players in the summer that is suppose to carry the team, and get two more In January and think your tactics will save the inability of the rest. You need a squad who can raise their game in the premiership and make a few additions to progress. Not carry the team.
My humble opinion anyway.. :ayatollah:

It's quite plain for some time that some of the players are simply not good enough.
I rant about KTC every week. For example, he's fucked us twice against Sunderland. Not booting the ball out before they scored at CCS, losing Wickham for their first goal yesterday and then went on to have a corker.
Then, we've had no serious goal scoring striker all season. The balance of the squad is terrible. Jones injured after 20 mins against Palace and when he eventually goes off, Ole has to put Turner up front.

I happen to think OGS is ok and can do a job but ruthless surgery is required with the squad.

Now just about recovered from the Sunderland trip.
Yours Sincerely
