Exactly my thoughts.

Can you elaborate?

He's going to go with all defenders and given up front on his own

The latter I fear!

[PeterWithe]

Hope he wasn't being gung-ho about the match, we are all used to drab nil-nil draws and we are capable of getting one, its all we need.

[Matt Collins]

Kendrick has been pretty inconsistent on mcleish. 3 weeks ago he was definitely staying, a week ago he was gone, today he reports that he 'may go even if we stay up'.

I suspect he just doesnt know

[Mazrim]

He's said he's going to go for it and play this way or that how many times now?
But I know what will happen is that which has happened 98% of the time. We'll try and keep it tight and have very little cohesion going forward and it will be dull, unimaginative and uninspiring.

Or I suspect he's got knowledge from inside the club, and they've changed their mind on McLeish's future....

Quite I'm fed up with his claims of what we're going to do. Just fuck off Alex.

Well, he has been manager for 18 years now, and little of that time have his teams played anything resembling attacking football. His history shows that he is either unable or unwilling to play anything other than safety first-football. Anyway, as we've so far only managed one goal a game (only Stoke has scored fewer than us) this season, it's a little late leaving such progressive thoughts till the penultimate game.

I believe that Mr Five may be starting up front with Emile

[Risso]

McLeish's idea of gung ho football is playing Emile Heskey up front rather than on the wing.  Anyway, I hope DCF comforted McLeish as he is likely to be cruelly overlooked for the Manager of the Month award that he mentioned last time they met.

Don't give the game away.

[Mazrim]

Come on DC5, spill the beans then.

Leaving us hanging after that set up really isn't cricket you know.
