Does Bruce have the right targets in his mind .... I'm worried.Sandie wrote:We need to sort this midfield. Tish was more effective than I can remember Westwood being in years.

Me too. It's going to be a big month for us between the window and trying to get by without Kodjia.

Pretty honest and uncompromising "Man up or I'll find a team who'll play my way".

He doesn't evade his own failure with the team selection and he certainly doesn't pull any punches with regards to the players (I can't bring myself to call them a team).Sandie wrote:Here's the interview: https://audioboom.com/posts/5452390-steve-bruce-on-defeat-to-cardiff-there-s-no-excuses-we-were-awful

Re: Cardiff V Aston Villa: 2nd January 15:00
Lets look at three players who each played one half:
Ashley Westwood:
3 touches
2 passes (I can't find whether they were forwards, sideways or backwards)
1 shot
0 tackles
0 clearances
0 blocks
Gary Gardner
6 touches
4 passes (1 unsuccessful)
0 tackles
0 clearances
0 blocks
Aaron Tshibola
47 touches
35 passes (94% completed, 1 key)
2 tackles
3 clearances
0 blocks
What sort of utterly inadequate pathetic excuse of a footballer manages to be in central midfield for 45 minutes and have as little influence and as few touches as Westwood and Gardner did? Absolutely inexcusable. Tshibola did better and begs the question of why he didn't get a game whilst these wasters did.
Let's not stop there:
McCormack, 14 touches in 81 minutes. Shite.
Bacuna, playing in midfield/wide for 90 minutes. 23 attempted passes. 56.5% successful.
