Only have a name on the back of my shirt if player deserves it. Used to have Hart for years. Currently have no one on the back of my home shirt, but Buckley on the back of the away, as the green and black is for 2011/2012 only, and he has given me my best moments of the season.
I think this summarises it very well. I used to be a harsh Barnes critic up until his amazing January, and his quieter February has told a lot about the player he is. He is either a defensive minded player, or Gus is telling him to do so. Up front he offers very little apart from his penalties...
We love you, we love you, we love you,
And where you go we follow, we follow, we follow,
Cos we support the Albion, the Albion, the Albion,
And that's the way we like it, we like it, we like it
:moo:
I see it the other way round. Chelsea and Spurs would want an ambitious manager; ambition is taking a struggling League One side and solidifying them in the Prem for at least a season. Ambition isn't going to a below par Wolves side and keeping them up, or taking them down and attempting to get...
In hindsight, I'd rather Gus had tried to limit the game to 3-1. But at the time, he gambled, and it could have paid off; remember a ball flashed across the box at 3-1 and a couple of crosses. If it goes 3-2, then he's a genius. Not to worry, Liverpool would carve anyone up on the counter like...
El-Abd was fantastic yesterday, as he has been all this season when he's played. Remember being really impressed with him against Lambert in the first half against Saints at the beginning of the year. Made Carroll look like a bigger jessie than he already is. Useless, long haired muppet. If he'd...
No. Because Poyet DOES think of himself. He has a much better chance of getting the Spurs/Chelsea job one day if he takes a League One club up to the Prem and keeps them there for at least a year, than taking a below average Prem club and either keeping them up or getting them relegated then...
100% agree. Bridcutt is an excellent control player - the other midfielder has to be creative. Navarro has no ingenuity. Got to be either JFC or Razak for me in for Navs.
Honestly think Posh are still in trouble. Reckon Pompey, Donny and Forest. Coventry have shown ability to win games on the trot, something the other three haven't, which is important come the April run.
I'm a CMS fan and desperately want to see him score again soon. Yet I can also understand why Gus hasn't selected him in the past couple of games. But we cried out for him for 65 minutes or so yesterday. He would have allowed us to play a cagey, tight game at the back and in midfield, and given...
Incredibly true. And you know who quickened up the tempo of attacks? JFC. I know Navs is a better defensive minded player, and he might not be getting a game because of pressure etc, but JFC was fantastic in January. Navs has no creativity.
Sure Brez made some mistakes, but our defence was none existent in the second half. A million times more a safer pair of hands than Casper.
Yesterday proved to me that we need CMS back. Whilst Barnes and Vokes have deserved their starts, having no CMS in the first half and majority of the...
