I think the general opinion about him and Jahanbakhsh are going to be wildly different this time next summer. This time next year we'll be talking about them as key players for the first game of the season. They're going to thrive under a more attacking coach who believes in their talents and...

No, but it was Tommy's celebration of Bas' goal that got them riled up.

Mahoney-Johnson has to be a serious contender for worst player, signed on loan as a striker but was so useless he ended up filling in at left back a few times. If we were paying for him anyway, we might as well get some use out of him! Back in the days before squad numbers in the football...

Tell you what gents, I'm not looking forward to uploading my 5 x 1 mile hard session from today. The wind is my biggest excuse, naturally, but I was surprised - parkrun on saturday was 6:17 per mile average pace. My quickest single mile rep was 6:44, and that was largely with the wind at my...

Villa Park, The Bescot and The Bet365 all on one drive a few months ago. I'd like to see a game at Villa Park, it's such a classic older ground. The Bescot for Walsall and The Bet365 for Stoke are less appealing in, essentially, every conceivable way!

He may not pass the "no wankers" test - but he's got good experience at this level, has been part of a Premier League winning team and is available on a free transfer, which may appeal considering the outlay in the last week. He wouldn't be the worst option, but I don't picture him being the...

Good effort, but; These are the equivalent of singing, "Sit down, shut up!". :lolol:

Play them to death. :albion2:

I don't think there is any chance of Huddersfield being in the play-offs. It was a poor team which luckily got promoted, a dire team which somehow stayed up and a pathetic team which was deservedly relegated last season. The squad this season hasn't been improved and is packed full of the tame...

Does your average football match have the better part of 500,000 attendees?

By the logic of many, Steve "1,000 games" Claridge must be just about the best pundit around. Been a player for more years, and for more clubs, than was reasonable based on his talent and had the briefest of spells as a manager. Personally, I think he's the worst "pundit" on the circuit and his...

:lolol: Hemed just isn't as good as you want him to be. He was a part of the promotion team and that will never be forgotten, but he will be. Ordinary player at Championship level and well below the minimum standard to be a success in the Premier League. His loan spell at QPR largely showed up...

Also, we have seen a number 9 wearing striker converted into a right back before, you know. Sir Gary Hart redeveloped his game to suit the needs of the squad. And so shall Jurgen Locadia! :jester:

Matt Clarke starts tonight for Phillip Cocu's Derby County. They did splash out almost £10million on another centre back though, who is not available tonight. He has the shirt, now he needs to justify keeping it and to be fair, I'm pretty confident he's a good, solid, defender. We'll see.

Congratulations to Curious Orange - I'm going to get that place back on saturday. :thumbsup: No chance of the Hardway for me - I'm going to focus firmly on Leicester now the decision is made, I'm going to behave myself during this training cycle and only deviate slightly, for the Isle of Wight...

Frankly, I won't be upset if this one doesn't happen. I don't think we need him - it's just going to be an additional block to Andone and Locadia getting a chance in the side. I believe in both of them, as central strikers. I'm not interested in seeing either of them playing deeper or on the...

£35million, £57million, £35million, £32million. Aguero is the bargain of the group!

I'd like to keep all these things in the same please, because come the end of the season - all these predictions are going to look ridiculous.
