Discord In The Squad

Nothing in this.

Boyce was annoyed Mcarthur mispassed and left him outside their box with no chance of getting back to defend the counter.

He got a clip round the ear and he probalby deserved it to be fair.

Hopefully thats where it will be left.

That’s always a possibility but i doubt either Boyce or McArthur are lining up to jump ship (in fact I would struggle to think of 2 players less likel to jump ship) so even if they’re pished off with players who may be I doubt they’d take their frustrations ou on each other

mcarthur and boyce were not in my thinking
more mcarthy di santo figgs and alcatraz are, an upset camp is not what is needed,
if they know they could be off in the summer for a better income why give a fook now

‘Why give a fook now’? Because they are professionals that why. I hate all this crap about players not giving a toss because they’re off in the summer. We only ever hear this when we lose. Di Santo and Figs are no different now than they were at the start of the season, i.e. distinctly average. Figs defending at times is appalling and always has been. I don’t know wtf he was thinking when he moves AWAY from Downing for the first goal. Why are you having a go at Alacaraz ffs, he’s only just back from injury. I admit mac had a hugely disappointing game but to suggest that’s all we can expect from him for the rest of the season because he will ‘fook off’ is a load of garbage.

Bit fooking right, too ;)

If McArthur deserved a clip round the ear for that misplaced pass then Boyce deserved one for getting turned so easily in the build up to their 1st!!!In fact I’d bet that McArthur said something pretty similar to Boyce when he was getting the verbals & Boyce didn’t take to that too kindly.
The spat wasn’t great to see but it’s not somet I’m worrying about – Steve Bruce & Peter Schmeichel used to be at each others throats every week at United
The disappointing thing for me about the incident was the bit that I seem to recall (some of them ales at the beer festival were mighty strong!!) MOTD showing where after the misplaced pass, Boyce chases back for about 5 yards before taking his eye off play & virtually stopping in order to give McArthur verbals whilst Liverpool are tearing forward into Latics penalty area. Players misplacing passes I can handle but Boyce neglecting his defensive duties just to have a go at someone whilst play is still progressing was very poor on his part[/quote]

I know Boyce didn’t have his best game but that Coutinho looks a class act. Think most defenders would have struggled against him not just Boyce! Bit harsh blaming him alone, was more annoyed about no one picking Downing up personally!!

My Grandfather who fought in the first world war and my father the second were from Ringsend Dublin both known as Paddy… never bothered them, when both were named Joseph, as is my son.
All we need is unity to escape the relegation zone get away from petty zenephobia..

come on Wigan we will do it!!
