Agree but he set up to draw at best I know I just wanted to provide some balance before the thread erupted. If we had have drawn it would have been a good result. It should be seen in context indeed I tend to react to each game as just lived it - tonight was shocking Overall he isnt and has done very well But why does he keep messing with a winning formula ?

I said it as soon as I saw the team news.
We need to batter Rotherham on Saturday to remotely justify that awful team selection tonight.
It was clear for all to see it was a horror show waiting to happen, before a ball was kicked.
Campbell and Fletcher have been top drawer recently. We went from that, to Vokes and Brown. Our attacking threat was none existent.
Zero shots on target in 90 minutes of football is pathetic.

Terrible team selection awful tactics all down to the manager. Some people claiming we have the best manager in the league dream on that was as bad as anything Jones or Rowett served up. Not the man to take us back to the premier league.

Waved the white flag the second he put out that team, against a team we should want to be competing with at the end of the season. Pathetic

We only have two decent strikers. We had a chance to go second and he plays neither of them Unforgivable for me

Play offs, bless 38 games left. I know you’d be gutted but there’s plenty of points to play for yet...... I’d be happy to stay up you can forget the play offs

Forget it. Move on to Rotherham and 3 points. A fit and firing Clucas and Powell are vital if we want a sniff of the play offs....... Ordinarily I'd like to forget it and move on, unfortunately this is not the first time he's done this to a winning team. The players must be as baffled as the fans.

That was as bad as anything we saw under Nathan Jones. Big difference is with Jones it was every week

It's a really frustrating trait for a manager to have ,especially when they have proved that when they have to they can produce a team well capable of scoring goals.
It's what did for me with Pulis in the end.
It really doesn't have to be like this.

I’d be happy to stay up you can forget the play offs The trick is to not get too carried away by the extreme highs and lows. We’re a team in transition, playing games every 3/4 days in the most competitive league in Europe, led by a manager who’s record since he joined is quite frankly superb. We’re currently above the curve, let’s not got overboard......

Absolutely shite from MON who waved the white flag with an absolute aberration of a stating xi. This 3 at the back just isnt working. 6 goals in the last 3 games FFS. Why would you rest a young striker who’s been involved in 4 goals in the last 2 games with less than 10 games of the season elapsed? Chester involved in another calamity and Tymon can’t play in his own half. Mikel manning a 1 man midfield with the other 2 absolutely nowhere to be seen. We’ve also had to suffer 94 minutes of wheely bin Vokes lumbering around. Just get a grip man FFS that was utter utter shite. We shouldve gone with a flat back 4, Mikel and Cousins in the middle of a flat midfield 4, McLean and Brown out wide with Ty Kai and Fletcher up front. Solid in the middle and hit them on the break. Even with your 12 men we'd have probably lost.

I obviously wouldn't be gutted don't be so moronic, but there's not a chance in hell we're making the play offs if we keep setting up so negitively. I don't want him gone, why would I, I want him to play the attacking football he himself proved works that kept us up.

Ordinarily I'd like to forget it and move on, unfortunately this is not the first time he's done this to a winning team. The players must be as baffled as the fans. We could just dwell on it for weeks I suppose. That’s the beauty of the Championship, park the last game and move quickly onto the next one. We are a work in progress, we can’t play the same XI every week, tonight’s experiment didn’t work simple as that. Similar personnel won at Wolves for example which helps understand MON’s thinking. Swansea are a younger more energetic team than us and it shows tonight, but there a long long way to go.....

He's put a team out there without a single player who likes to get on the ball, in this squad you can't just fucking get by without any of clucas, powell, Campbell, Fletcher. They are the only quality offensive players we have. And none of them started!!!

I’ve no idea. Only thing I can think of is he played for a draw in a ‘bonus game’ and we’ll go full strength v Rotherham to ‘guarantee’ the result. Hughes Ala newcastle relegation season. Changes needed to be made as we couldn’t play the same team again and we don’t know how fatigued players were. I feel like we have to play a completely different style with certain personnel (Vokes).

I actually said we need a “fit and firing Clucas and Powell” for us to even have a go at making the play offs, and with 38 games to go and with us statistically showing play off form since O’Neill joined I’m not sure why it’s “moronic” You constantly stick the boot in and certainly don’t dish out anywhere near as much praise considering the job he’s done.....

Why won't he go back to 4231 or 433. We have no wingbacks. Smith and Fox are decent fullbacks. McClean, Tymon, Smith or Brown are just not wingbacks. It is a very specialized position and decent ones cost a fortune.
Please Michael clear your mind and go back to what you know.
