Its about time. The current teams looks so flat and predictable. A young talent like Fleck and Aaron may be the injection of flair that we need. None of the current players who have been tried on the left are the answer - i include Novo and Naismith here. Novo is far better on the right or upfront and Naismith has only had 1 game there.
-
Dont know how genuine this is. But i think he would probably score more in Italy than he would in england due to the slower game.
-
Not really! Its Southend! :box: Would still rather see Chelsea win things than Liverpool - what was Benitez thinking last week trying that mind games with Sir Alex!!! Its cost them big time!! Sir Alex must have been laughing his head off, now they can go top this weekend before Liverpool play Everton
-
Aaron and Fleck have shown more talent, excitement and ability in the space of 15 mins than Adam, McCulloch and Lafferty have done in months upon months!! Both should be playing!
-
Agree with boths sides here and Johnny is spot on where id play him at home but not away - but thats not acceptable for a footballer to not be able to play in certain matches. When he is good then he looks promising, yet when he is poor he is absolute gash! But would be in my team every day ahead of Adam and McCulloch.
-
I just hope WS has the bottle to drop him but i cant see it. The likely thing that will happen is BF will "turn up" over the next few weeks and put in a couple of good shifts here and there and people will think the old BF is back. But this wont be the case. He is a distrubtion to the rest of the team IMO and has zero leadership skills. If anything he is the opposite and makes leadership worse. Im fed up seeing him shout at fellow players and this has gone back for years. Under 3 managers we played well until he walked back into the team, picking up the captaincy at the same time!! Give Edu a chance or bring back Hemdani. I dont think Hemdani is under rated at all.
-
I assume these 2 points are pointed towards WS for his constant selections of poor players and not giving talented guys a chance!!!
-
A lot of the time a players proof is in the pudding when they move down south and cant stand out. I cant see Burke appearing in the headlines much at Cardiff at all. Does that say anything about the level of the SPL these days as well, including the fact the Championship is a league on the move up.
-
Sky said he has knocked it back. Well done Kaka for not just jumping at the money! That said, watch him sign tomoro!!
-
Chelsea in a bit of a mess at the moment, they have no harmony as they have had in past few season, now the likes of Fat Frank and Terry dont seem to be able to do much. They are missing Essien more than anyone. And Drogba seems to be in a sulk.
-
The figures going about are for 175 million package, with 100 million going to Milan and 75 million on Kaka's wages which will be 500k a week!!! But also read it is 100 million euro's to Milan. Silly silly money!! If it was Chelsea or Man Utd buying they would be talking half that, its just because Man City arent 1 of the big boys that they have to up the money.
-
At last these cracks in Ferguson are appearing more obvious to more fans. His negativity in his attitude has been obvious for years and now his playing ability is getting very obvious. Yet he is still first name on the team sheet. It may well be a result in playing with injuries for too long but at the moment BF is reminding me of some of the 9IAR team who couldnt find an extra gear to make it 10IAR. BF needs to be dropped. Davis and Mendes are easy the best option in the centre of the park.
-
With the down time for a few days we never got a chance to discuss Burke moving to Cardiff. Getting him off our books is a big scoop as he was a waste of a wage. Some say he under achieved but for me he only showed glimpses of skill but was always blown off the ball with ease. He was 1 of quite a few dead wood and him leaving is as good as when Mo Ross and Stephen Hughes left.
-
Is Latpay still there also? Do you think WS is giving Hughes his signing tips???
-
Agreed with John in the opening post. Last season was a success in its own way. Had WS utilised his squad properly and the fixtures went kinder then we could have also added the SPL and UEFA to the 2 Cups. But we should have used last season as a spring board to take the team onto the next level yet its the other way. We have we backwards fast! The signings either have been overall poor or havent been given a chance, and yet the likes of Dailly were kept on for no reason which is wasting more money. WS just never wants to fit talented younger player into the team. Im not saying we should field them every week all over the pitch but Fleck and Aaron should be tried before McCulloch etc. The season isnt lost yet but you worry about the morale in the team when every player knows they are for sale.
-
I cant see Boyd going anywhere. Unfortunatly I can see Bougherra or Mendes being the players sold off. Mendes aparently not happy that he was "offered" to Newcastle on loan??!!! Not sure what is going on behind the scenes at the moment!
-
Newcastle might as well just start wearing our shirts. They try to nick a load of players. Bougherra, Mendes, Ferguson, Boyd, McGregor all linked this week and now they have got Lovenkrands on trial. Whats with that bloke Willie McKay offering all our players to them!!
-
BF wont want to go but i think many Bears wouldnt mind it TBH. We will only really get 1 more season out of him after this and he isnt near any kind of level/form he has had in the past. 1 of BF's downfall was actually being made captain, this went to his head and effected his play. Was interesting to hear a Gers fan call your call the other day saying BF is more of a bully that captain. Whittaker and Broadfoot were both playing well in the team until BF came back - not to sure how accurate the comments are. But another example he used was at Inverness last week, BF over hit a cross yet it was Broadfoot who had to apologise to BF - i couldnt beleive it! If we got 2 million for BF it would be a good piece of business.
-
Davis would be my first pick in the centre of the park at the moment. Pity Edu hasnt played or settled as well or having him sit deep and allowing Davis and Mendes to go forward sounds good
-
He had a brief decent spell at Leeds and a great run in the Euro qualifiers for NI, apart from that he hasnt been scoring at all
-
Crikey, i go to bed then come back and all my threads are tampered with :box:
-
Great goal by Commons! Decent player this guy!!!
-
Well MB should have went long ago. I dont know why SDM calls some fans mice when he employs a yes man to work for him. I dont know about anyone else but i certainly wouldnt be in awe of Murray if i met him and id tell him this in a nice way.
-
Thats the managements fault though and the buck stops with them. We judge them at the end of this season. Its a 3 stage process and come May time will be up on all 3 and if they havent delivered the title then they are out. I get the impression a lot on here would still kind of be upset if we won the league without Boyd.
-
85% off Lee McCulloch is hilarious tho!!!
