  1. Why even put Santon on the bench if you don't bring him on after that half. FFS
  2. Seriously, I don't know if one option could be "to win this" to make stated intentions realised. At least it should be thought about, I don't think it's impossible.
  3. I know the feeling. I want to laugh at him for failing but on the other side I feel kinda proud and hope he does well. Totally split.
  4. Makes me wonder how we survived over 100 years without the Carroll-money?
  5. That depends on how you calculate the expenses. If we include agent fees, salaries during the contract period and sign on fees, we've used all the money. And a very, very important factor is that we used some of those money to tie down Tiote for 6,5 years. You're so emotionally tied to Carroll that you have difficulties to see what we've bought/secured for the future with the money we sold him for: *Tiote *Cabaye *Ba *Maveraux In sum, those players are of course much better than Carroll. And we have REPLACED Carroll if we're talking about getting in a similar player (Ba), but if you're yearning for a marquee signing, we have not succeeded. Personally, I think it's important to consider many aspects: I don't want us to use too much, he must be fast and have a good engine, and he must fit into the squad. What a post, you always deliver.
  6. Oh no! Someone had a different opinion to you on an internet forum. They must be getting paid. If anyone on Ashley's payroll would like to contact me about disagreeing with HawK, or any other user, I'd be willing to listen to offers. The Carroll deal seemed to work well for everyone involved. We got a s*** load of cash, Carroll got a massive wage rise, Liverpool got a young, English striker and his agent made a fortune. As it has turned out, the money we received hasn't obviously been reinvested in the squad and we've not replaced him in the team and Carroll hasn't settled yet at Liverpool and hadn't come close to finding the same form for Liverpool that got him the transfer in the first place. The thing isn't about Carroll. It's just a total mess that we had 8 months to find a striker and we didn't. And here are people who think it's acceptable. We had longer than 8 months, we needed a striker before Carroll left. I know we did, but after Carroll it was a must. That's true, but it's a tough call. Without the sale of Carroll it's not sure that we could have afforded Cabaye, Maveraux or BA. In reality we got three potentially very good players for the price of one potentially very good player. Besides, we need a different kind of attacker than Carroll:fast, poacher and who's capable of beating the offside trap. This post just cracks me up. Four sentences full of c***.

  8. Hey Derek, did we really try to bring in another striker in the summer?
  9. Jonas played almost always against two men when attacking, Duff was always there helping Baird. Considering that I think he did alright attacking and great as always defensively. He's really undroppable to us IMO. Maybe we can use Marveaux on the left side of centermidfield when playing 4-5-1/4-3-3.
  10. Your day has arrived Punk. Tin helmet at the ready, son. I know, but I just have a good feeling..And if he sinks Fulham, 99 % of the forum will have a lot of explaining to do. I'm probably the only exception What is there to explain? How s*** player scored?

    The striker

    Lovenkrands has more experience so never gonna happen.

    Shefki Kuqi

    Shefki has been training with Crystal Palace and probably gets a contract somewhere soon. Edit. And I don't mean us, just informing... :colo:

    Erik Pieters

    Or even cold wednesday night...
  14. "Oh boy, I'm in great position...hmmm....Is Kyle totally unmarked on the halfway-line?"

    Joey Barton

    I would consider this window to be a massive success if we can bring Maiga and Cissokho in, but equally important for future would be to get Joey and Colo sign new contracts.
  16. I didn't think he even tried to nutmeg, just ran the ball straight to defender.

    Joey Barton

    How do you know how gutted Enrique is?
  18. Yeah he's a right footed midfielder not played for months filling in at left back....... Bit harsh. By the same logic if I played on goal against Fulham and tried my best, would I be outstanding too? How can you say we should get rid of Best when we have Lovenkrands in our bench? I would start Best ahead of Shola/Obertan/Lovenkrands for now.
  19. He was crap in a pre-season game played in an ocean, we better kick him out, right?
  20. Signission. :D That's probably the worst spelling error the world has ever witnessed. :colo:
