They never give the MOM award to an away player – ever. As well you know.
Out of the Latics players, N’Zogbia was the only one on the pitch with any sort of creative spark, with the possible exception of McCarthy.
His final decision making undoubtebly needs to improve but then again I said the same thing about Valencia the entire time he was here & we flogged him for £16mill & he’s doing alreet for himself at United
On the subject of Bobby’s comments – if he was proud of that performance then he wants sacking. Immediately. I suspect however that he was less than pleased with the performance but is one of them managers who will not criticise his players in public. Unlike say a Paul Jewell who was very vocal in his criticisms and then used to pick the exact same players for the next game (for us & Derby).
Bobby’s approach is feckin annoying & it leads you to question his judgement but I can see the reason behind his thinking if indeed he is using it as a smokescreen to protect & encourage his players
