In that role, he shouldn’t be anywhere near the coaching side of things. Him going into the dressing room at half time is an absolute farce. It’s just more unnecessary interference, rather than just letting one man take charge of the coaching of the team. Utter joke. I'm fairly sure he's just there if Wayne has any questions or asks for some advice. It's a good idea in my opinion as Rooney has zero experience as manager. If we had a proven manager coming in, I'm sure Mac would take more of a back seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minesahartington Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 At the moment of course, with covid, they are not using the dressing rooms so I don’t see what the problem is.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players were poor as result in the second half but if anyone in the Wycombe team had asked them a question regarding opportunity cost formulae they were very well drilled.

Mac was assistant manager at Man Utd, so it was his job to get involved in coaching. Here he is technical director, so he should be advising the board, not the manager.

We need results, and now! Yes, I do. I’ve always thought it significant that Mac watches from “on high”. It gives a better view of what’s happening that you don’t get at ground level.

They went out to win free-kicks so they could launch it at the brick-outside toilet that was their centre-forward and we fell for the most industrial level football imaginable. We should have cut off their supply by pressing them better but we fell into the trap of camping in our box instead. I’m sure Rooney and Mac knew what was coming but the players still naively went in too strong. You can’t always legislate for a ref whose blind to players falling over. It was happening all over the pitch - Wycombe “Wander & Fall over”ers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I actually disagree there. We could have changed around either personal or shape in midfield in order to retain the ball better. This is what i think we needed to do. Calm the game down and take a bit of control. Perhaps brought on someone very physically strong and aggressive like Bielik to help combat it. Swapped Fozzy (who was going well but faded) For Buchanan to match McCleary's pace better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarke looked much more confident with Fozzy, needs the extra experience atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
