I don't like this talk of buying squad players. To me we need to buy the best players that we can and make the players they replace in the first team squad players. Worry about adding cheap players to fill out the squad once the first team is sorted.

Has anyone told them it's about more than just yellow and red cards?

If he wants to kill two birds with one stone he could just say that Alan Smith is the infamous Toon Insider and watch him get killed by death.

Plus Sven to be sacked and they're still owned by a dispicable dictator.

I would but I don't rate him much either.

What exactly has Zarate done to get so highly rated? He's at least an FM legend. Barnes has done absolutely nothing to justify any hype.

Yes...just the one bad game...

Man City.

Larsson would make a good squad player. Don't really need those though.

More the realisation that if you take Viduka, Martins, Geremi, Barton and Faye out of the team we're absolutely shit.

The fact that this thread only has four pages sums it all up really.

I propose a toast to the end of Damien Duff, the end of Alan Smith and hopefully the end of bad times. Roll on next season and the good times King Kev!

Cool.

2 or 3-0 loss for us. Can't see anything else with that team.

Sounds like he's dissing Owen lol.

Dreadful team.

Chelsea fans everywhere have just started weeping in unison. Bramblinho played a blinder at our place last week. Rooney always tears him to pieces.

True, but I think when a player is deciding on a club they take many things into account and league position is definately one of them. Also if representatives are trying to sell a club to a potential target dont tell me beating Chelsea in the final of a cup wouldnt be somewhat impressive. Bottom line they have finished above us for the past four seasons. I know what your saying about the two fifths being a blip but they clearly have a good team and dont belong in the bottom half of the table. We dont either truthfully but if I am really honest I think they are clearly the more likely to do something in the next few seasons. Also when you hear some of the stuff KK comes out with in interviews it cant help either imo. If you look at their squad they only have maybe 2 or 3 top quality players: Woodgate, King and Berbatov. The rest of their players are either good mid table players, young players or complete shit (Jenas, Kaboul etc.) I think one thing they've managed to do well is create this facade that they are a step above the other teams chasing 5th place when in reality as Everton and Villa have shown this season, Spurs aren't really that good. Anyone can beat Chelsea on their day...heck we've done it 4 out of the last 6 times at home and once in the FA Cup. I honestly don't think players will be impressed by a league cup win at all.

Only 4 and 5 are big reasons really. No-one abroad will probably even be aware that they won the League Cup as it's fairly meaningless. Their 2 fifth place finishes are more like the blip than their current form given their overall performance since the Premiership began.

This. By the way: best avatar ever.

This.

I thought that earlier when I saw his team but didn't wanna be an arsehole. His back up team is far better than his first team.
