It might take some time, even up to a year but they will be back at the top. Losing badly to MKD doesn't matter as they were not remotely interested in winning that game as their only target this season is the top 4.
Hmmm there are plenty of rags out there who fully believe this. Totally convinced that Butthead is a world class manager who has won titles wherever he has been and the scum will rise to the top again. Listening to Goldstein on TShite ( how dare I!) last night was comedy gold. He basically spouted all this crap at anyone who dared to doubt the greatness of the club and the manager and he was 100% embarrassing.
Can Burnley stop them winning so we can keep laughing?
You had me going there, Mr H, with your first paragraph; nicely done, indeed.
Last night, I did listen to Talkspite for a little while myself (so you're in bad company) and Ray Parlour was talking about the Scum.
He said Butthead should forget about playing this 3 (or 5 ??) at the back formation and change, instead, to 4-2-3-1.
On that basis, when they bought Vidal they could play him alongside Hernandez as one of the 'two', with Di Maria, Mata and Shrek further forward in support of Van Pussy as the main/sole striker, which would be a better system than what they're attempting at the moment. He said, however, this would mean that 'boy wonder' Adnan Genocide would struggle to make the starting eleven.
I was thinking that, incredulously, Parlour was somehow making a lot of sense and then he qualified it all by saying that the Scum would have to "sort out" their defence, at which prospect his monologue tailed off somewhat, as the immensity of what he was saying had seemingly sunk in.
I was driving along chuckling at that, for quite a few minutes thereafter.
