Dinho lad

Incredibly harsh. This thread is like a bloody yo-yo. He has a great amount of skill as he has shown in glimpses. He just makes a lot of wrong decisions fueled by his natural naivety. Needs to learn his craft in league one or the championship, like many of our other fringe/youth players. Reserve football is no place to develop and a large part of why we havent seen as many youth players prosper as they should have done. That's the thing though he shows flashes of ability on the ball which - as we've seen before - gets mistaken for caged potential. It would take a monumental effort for him to reach even Obertan's level. It is a waste of time keeping him here until that is tested though. He won't be fairly judged until he is playing for someone else. But to be fair to your argument in the starts he has been given he should have shown more and taken his chances. He did look great in one European game but its another flash in comparison to his forgettable performances. Ferguson should be ahead of him every time. Travesty he wasn't starting today by the way. Ferguson didn't do too well in his last start either. (Although, I agree he should be given more game time.) I don't particularly want Ameobi to start games, but he'd be useful come-on late to give us something different.

Looking decent so far. Annoyed that RVP is not starting, though. http://i.imgur.com/geDwz.jpg http://i.imgur.com/VnSTz.jpg

Blasted? Hardly. It was simply a disagreement. It's easy to come-in now and jump on a player's back after a poor performance, but I noticed that you failed to reply to my post after I gave a few examples to why Ameobi needs to stay here. (for the time being anyway.)

That's the Ba equivalent of "8 more years", I take it?

Ba.

Nah, Ba is far too selfish.

Guess what?

Blanc is as defensive minded as Pardew.

We need a CB and a forward. Nothing less.

Has to defend them in public. I reckon he'll have came down on them in the dressing room. Exactly this.

What did the ginger ninja say? That our good season last season was simply down to 9 or 10 good players at the club (HBA, Cabaye, etc) and that the rest of the team, seemingly, based on their performances when given the chance this season, are not good enough and were carried by those 10 or so good players. (to make them look better.)

Yep.

Not even a PL player.

Lua-Lua is desperate to score.

Have a word with yourself. He is a young lad learning his trade who has been thrust in at a level he's not yet ready for. He needs to go out on loan but due to our ineptitude in building a squad he hasn't been allowed to do so. Some of our fans have a terrible attitude towards some of our younger players who aren't yet ready for first team football. Some might never be ready but to hurl such abuse at them isn't going to help is it? Yep..... but when a senior player like Coloccini plays badly... it's Williamson's fault, injury distrubted season, etc.

The referee felt sorry for us so he decided to send him off.

So is Shola.

I hope Perch hasn't picked-up a knock.

Agree.

Pardew won't be sacked.

Didn't realise that Wayne Bridge was playing for them.
