It would make sense for him to go to Chelsea. McClaren has to be on borrowed time now. I've been patient enough and ignored some weird tactical choices over this season but the way he lined Newcastle up last night just adds to the fact he's an absolute madman that's so out of touch with the Premier League.
A front three of Ayoze Perez, Townsend and Sissoko. Perez playing through the middle. The team then proceeded to send balls in from the wing for an entire half to be met by absolutely nothing. Perez needs balls through the middle, not forgetting he isn't 6 foot either and he's a number 10. Naturally we didn't head a single ball for that reason. Mitrovic was introduced finally and thus non surprisingly got onto the end of a cross albeit sending it wide.. but again our first effort on goal. Perez can now freely explore the final third and begins to make chances and take ones of his own.. being the only player to actually force a save.
How does one call for wide play in the transfer window, sign a winger, then proceed to play your smallest player in the middle on his own? A team that now has no Centre back and no Left back pending the results of Mbemba and Dummet. £90 million and no defenders. Suicide. I suppose you could take advantage of the 13 first team midfielders on the book
Absolute madman.
