Probably still blaming Rafa
apparently, our manager has come out and said "he is going to do it his way now" in the press conference today!
ffs who's way has he being doing it for the last 18 months??
"we are defensively sound and they are the best performers" so he's going on the attack
i hate the man, full of ****
someone must have had a word in his ear, to me he is just going for broke now, not a tactical change because he is astute, he has nothing left. Hes gambling it all on an attacking lineup for the next match
Probably still blaming Rafa
Maybe he isn’t going to start Jokelinton and has told Ashley he’s not listening to him anymore
This could very well be true as the idiocy at SDFC holds no bounds.
Ashley could’ve thought he’d learnt from Rafa that only a solid defence was needed to amass enough points to avoid relegation. Mike’s happy and the fans’ll be happy because they were when Rafa was here and doing that. He could well have been instructing this to Cabbage - nothing would surprise me or be too amateur to believe at the club these days. (The purchase of big Joe was an error of stupendous proportions even for us).
Perhaps Bruce is now throwing his toys out at Ashley finally?
It smacks of the way Trump is behaving now...unhinged rantings that make you go 'wtf'?
Can't see the players responding to him basically saying they're shit and it's their fault we're where we are so now we're going to do it his way?
Again, if you think about it, it’s an incredible statement. After 18 months in the job as head coach, he declared he’s now going to START doing things his way.
The more I think about it the more I think he has to be talking about instructions from Fat boy via tea boy. Even Bruce couldn’t be so pathetic as to be still talking about Rafa.

No, I think he is talking about Rafa. I don't think he'd dare be so openly critical of Ashley. It's also a way of deflecting any blame coming his way by implying that, up until now, things haven't been done the way he'd like them to be. Sits entirely at odds with his 'I take the blame' statement too.
He’s clearly feeling the pressure - and rightly so, I really don’t have any confidence in his tactical prowess to get us up the table, we will be dragged down into a battle with the upcoming fixtures.
