And jammy Leicester had the cheek to win the fooookin prem league anall, the daft twots if they had passed it about between the back 4 they would easily have finished mid-table.

There is no one set to play. Even Man Utd play a counter attack game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re comparing Man Utd to megson’s tactics? i really do struggle to believe how some people can’t understand basic football and liken Man Utd’s, Leicester’s and even the Pigs’ attacking, get the ball forward quickly, counter-attacking wing-play to Megson’s 1980s esque long ball hoof ball.

toppOwl Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Megson did a job in getting passion back and making Hillsborough a tough place to visit for away teams, his limitations showed as the season wore on, Jones tweaked what we had and won promotion. I'm sure we've advanced as a club enough for Megson not to be in the frame, he did his bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah megson didn’t sign Marshall and Antonio to play on the wings did he. He knows pace and strength are vital to what a team needs. The current squad have neither Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny0wl Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I am not a fan of Mr Megson and have stated I wouldn’t want him back. I will however be behind the next manager whoever it may be. I would rather us move forward with a young ambitious manager and I couldn’t give a monkeys where they are from, as long as they fall in love with our massive club. We have a chance to start again next season and build for the future. Merry Christmas to everybody and I hope you all have a lovely day with family and friends!! Get on those sprouts!!!

Yep it beats passing it sideways for 5mins. Then hooooof, btw a lot of leicester's goals/play was straight down the middle, as is brizzle c and cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
