I’m sorry but this is tosh. Why can’t people just admit they are wrong. Firstly Cocu was dog poo and secondly Rooney is doing a very good job and deserves all the credit for this football we are now playing. Anyone who thinks the difference is a few injuries, knows nothing about football 

It's not tosh at all, unless you think we could play this way with Marriott up top and Rooney at DM?

Rooney has done well but there are so many more factors at play, and it doesn't really matter how many times you claim Cocu wanted us to play negative, passive football it simply isn't true.

Cocu (actually it may have been Chris Van Der thingy)  literally said during pre season that the aim was to play a higher tempo, more aggressing pressing style of football this season, higher up the pitch.

We did actually start the season trying to do that, but with Marriott up top & Rooney/Bird as CDMs all we ended up doing was losing the ball and being hit the counter.

 

What they said ... and what transpired on the pitch were clearly two very different things 

if they were hell bent on high pressure football why did he try to exclude shinnie as often as possible ?

think our Dutch friends were talking baalocks quite frankly

I recall that cocu was waiting on the return of waggy and Lawrence as his salvation. It appears wazzer can work without them

But with CKR & Bielik providing the most important thing that any good football team ever possesses - balance.

Remove those two from this team and we'd be ducking poo again.
