Gutless performance. Oscar is a joke.

[terryberry1]

Absolute shocker today, players were poor but Oscar has a lot to answer for. Shocking tactics, shocking substitutions. We are going backwards. Today I have joined the Oscar out camp. The bloke hasn't got a scooby. Goodbye Play Offs

THE TRAGEDY IS WE COULD HAVE BEEN WELL ENTRENCHED IN THE PLAY-OFF POSITIONS BY NOW
I said it once and have not changed my mind
the guy is out of his depth

I agree, anyone who tells their players to hit a penalty 3m over the bar at 1 nil down is obviously useless. The players aren't converting in front of goal. Thats not oscars fault! You also dont know what goes on behind the scenes re transfwrs. Oscar may well have been told he cant sign another striker as he has two returning from injury shortly. Again, not oscars fault!

What you on about? Forget the shite penalty. I'm talking about his negative bullshit passing game he tries to play. Its just crap. His style is crap, his tactics are crap..... He is crap.

I was in the in camp but have joined you.

I had faith, but it is gone, He is the wrong person for the wrong team, Full stop

The heart left the club in the transfer window when El Abd and Barnes left. We now have a squad of players who hardly seem to give a shite and are lacking in bottle. Two moments epitomised this. Nobody wanted to take the penalty and the free kick in injury time. Lacklustre describes today's performance, a word which also sums up the managers demeanour.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Forget the penalty, today was appalling. No invention, no commitment, no direction. Rudderless.

Moyes out! Moyes out! Moyes out!

Today we were very poor but can we get real if all the players were available would that have been our starting eleven

So it's not his responsibility to allow extra training for areas we struggle in and play the correct tactics and formation to support Leonardo 'Crusoe' Ulloa up front?

We all moaned that Gus didn't have a plan B but it looks like Oscar doesn't have a plan A

Stephens was fit and paid £600k for him. Don't play him as he's to attacking.

I'm surprised Oscar even knows how to find the staduim.

Lest we forget, this season appears to be shaping up a bit like the end of our first season back in the championship under Gus. We worked our way back into a situation where we were playoff contenders... and then the wheels came off at the end and we couldn't buy a win. The next season came together pretty well.

I refuse to submit to the modern football disease of expecting immediate results. I want to see what Oscar can do after his own close season. Add to that the opening of the academy and hopefully the final implications of FFP becoming clearer and we will be in a much better position to evaluate how the club is doing.

 

[casbom]

It was a day of 'no' = no passion, no belief, no tactical plan, no conviction, no pace, no confidence, no plan B, no idea and no chance of making the playoffs. Boro wanted it more and deserved to win, it looked like we had given up on the playoffs already! I've never criticised the players before but that was a totally inept performance.

 

[Max Paper]

Ulloa didn't want to take that penalty, it was very obvious. In fact like he didn't want to take it so much I said to the guy next to me as long as he he hits the target and misses then fair enough. With regards to Oscar, the football is no more boring than under Gus. Give him a full pre season, let him bring in HIS players and judge him next season. This one was all about consolidation after the mess Gus left behind. If we'd been told we'd be 4 points off the play offs with a game in hand and out best player (Bridcutt) gone with 8-9 games left, I'd be amazed at people who said they wouldn't take it.

But it's his fault that he just stands there with his hands in his pockets showing no passion at all!!!

Take the guts out of the team, you get a gutless team.

It's not about the league position though - it's about the boring and negative style of play. 39 goals in 38 games is pathetic.
We sign Lingard who is a proven goalscorer and then play him as a bloody left winger.
