What would McClaren do with this team?

More likely....

Everyone would be up in arms on here because he had not come out and been around to everyones house and told each and every fan in person that he was not interested in the Newcastle job if Bruce is sacked.

A rescue job with half the games left wouldn't be Mac's thing, we'd probably be slightly better off than now, but only just.

Billy on the other hand, would have had us pushing hard for the play offs.

Really?

your definition of 'great' must be very different to mine?

It's just @MuespachRam being the old contrarian that he is.

Read a couple of threads..... Gauge the prevailing mood....take the diametrically opposite position to provoke a reaction... 

Rinse and repeat....most likely not what he really thinks at all.... ?

When we was near the top of the form table, this is the McClaren effect.

When we’re losing, what would McClaren do with this team.

Couldn’t have seen this coming from a mile off, not at all.

I really can't get past this... disappointing. 

True though.

McClaren would have this team playing with purpose and intent. Rooney appears to be Cocu with a scouse accent. They both speak surprisingly well, but serve up dire football. McClaren on the other hand, appears a buffoon when speaking but inspires feelgood football, that is until morons start moaning that a 3-0 half time lead against Brighton is not good enough! ??‍♂️

I'm not sure Mac would be doing any better with the squad to be honest. We may be playing better football, but the squad is so small, especially with the injuries that the team wouldn't be much different.

We're forced into playing 4231:

GK
Byrne   Wisdom   Mengi   LB
CM   CM
RW   AM   LW
Kazim

Choice in goal is a toss of a coin - Roos vs Marshall
Likewise at LB - Buchanan vs Forsyth
CM is any two from Bird, Knight and Shinnie
The three behind Kazim is out of Lawrence, Jozwiak, Sibley and Roberts

Even Kazim and Lawrence don't appear to be 100% fit at the moment. For Mac-ball to work he needs the players to be fully fit, with top options off the bench. We just don't have that right now.
