3-5-2 is the last refuge to which a scoundrel clings.
I really don't know why people are so worried about what the media or anyone else will think of us if we sack another manager
we are lying 16th in the championship with no hope of even a play of place, playing the worst football known to man after spending the most money that's ever been spent in this league
and people are worried that sacking another useless manager will make us look like a laughing stock !
Strange how 3-5-2 has been condemned as some sort of spawn of Satan formation, as though of itself it condemns a manager. Stranger still when you note that Chelsea, 10 points clear at the top of the PL, have been using it for the majority of the season. Now obviously they have much, much better players but that isn't the point when it is the fact of the formation not the players that is being ridiculed.
It hasn't worked for us, Bruce has said as much himself, but that doesn't mean that trying it was a crazy, off the wall, aberrant experiment.
Just about everybody could see that it was doomedd to failure before kick off. No decent wing backs and therefore no balls into the box for the forward players. Comparing it to Chelsea is utterly irrelevant. It was a terrible decision, and got what it deserved, ie nowt. Your post is like saying "now I know that putting my hand in the oven when it's on is going to hurt, I won't be stupid enough to do it again". It was a dreadful deciion from a bloke who has sadly lost the plot.

we say that every six months and yet like actors auditioning for a role, they still keep coming. One day the auditioned and the part will marry up

Conte is being found out this season.

But perceptions are important. My worry is that sacking another manager makes us look like a basket case with a trigger-happy chairman, and I can't see that being remotely attractive to any top class manager.

Yep, it's a bit different playing three at the back with Luiz and Cahill than it is with Bakerbauer and Mad Tom
