Most liked posts in thread: Gary Bowyer - when do we judge?

8 pts from games everyone of us would have taken that but the fact we have kept 3 clean sheets, defence and O'Donnell look solid it does show what can be done when given time to assemble. We still need probably 3 more in but no doubt GB has got the squad United.

 

Is that the same Parkinson you thought was clueless when he was here? Doubt Bowyers losing much sleep.

 

Where's the fun in that?

 

Very true. I think new younger managers get caught in the trap of trying to play new modern attractive football but if you look at the top sides they do this from a strong solid base. Liverpool had the best defence last season

 

Yes that's the point I was making

 

I think that was why Devine got hooked at half time, lucky to be still on the pitch.

 

Not quite. But he needs to sort things out and turn it around quickly, as the pressure will start to build soon

 

What's his record as it stands now?

 

Going going......

 

Not helping himself with that today. No idea what it was.

 

so, say longridge is fit but not match-fit and he starts and plays poorly - you'd be one of the first on here saying he's not got enough and shouldn't be playing, calling for him to be dropped. if we play 4-4-2, who are your central midfield two?

 

Sounds very familiar to last years recruitment when you put it like that.

 

doesn't answer the question though does it. people demand 442 but nobody can suggest a central 2 that doesn't get dominated by the opposition at the moment.

 

When did he sign his 14 th players what’s he called?

 

The 442 system is better suited to our squad, and yes we have a weak midfield 2, he continues to play Akpan. He better find at least one before Monday. Otherwise we won’t be looking upwards and promotion that is for sure.

 

Pop the list of signings up and I'll let you know which one(s) you're missing.

 

He's signed 13 new players, and resigned 2 that were already here so either way, 14 is incorrect.
