  1. With Haidara in he is 3rd choice behind Santon. But then you have to consider that he is finished here and I've never been impressed with his attitude. Therefore in a right back emergency I would turn to Anita, Perch, Ryan Taylor, Tavernier and Mbiwa before him, effectively making him 8th choice right back.

    I can see this being Thomson House's made up story of the month. Getting all January signings in plenty of time must be bad for paper circulation.
  3. It's just a smokescreen. Put himself in the media, make the press and QPR miss the fact that we are signing his good friend Lionel Messi.
  4. So you know for a fact he hasn't? Can I go ahead and get Saturdays lottery numbers while you're there? I know the British media, it has been widely reported that they have been informed of the issue, and if he cheated the media would tell us! Not necessarily like. Maybe his lass has been caught bucking? No matter what it is, I think we can all agree that the 'his lass is ill' excuse was total bollocks. I think you and others are being very stupid. Based on what we know the bad things being said of Colo and his family are the least rational explanations.

  6. He has not cheated on his wife. I just hope he does not get tarnished by this if he walks and the situation then gets properly explained. People are being a bit thick and too easily believing slander and lies.
  7. Not worried about this. The UK airports were not operating well yesterday, I'm sure the club rather he wait a day before travelling than leave him stranded in Heathrow or something.
  8. Has the poster Dijon done any puns yet?
  9. I thought Mick was responsible for the dossier?

    He's lost me too now. He has gone down his usual route, start out great but it has all gone to his head now. He needs to go.

    The scouting isn't the problem. The recruitment part is however. Nope, I think we are just finding players we would be expected to find. We have gone from being very poor in this department to simply average. There is no evidence of a wide network. Carr has a good eye and likes players with a pleasing style of play but that is as far as it goes. Disagree completely. The big problem we have is we only seem to focus on certain areas. Hearing Carr say we won't look at South America was extremely disheartening. What you and Village Idiot say is what I am trying to say myself, and this is the reason why I think we are no more than average in finding players. We have a good scout but we do not have a good network.

    I think we are seeing that our much lauded scouting system isn't actually anything special. In fact it is quite limited.

    Apologies if this has already been asked, but is he a pure full back, or is he more like Beye or Bassong in that he has good central defensive attributes but has ended up on the side?

    Originally from Erebor until the dragon Smaug took control of the Lonely Mountain. Currently homeless as he seeks to reclaim his kingdom.
  16. I would be thinking more about next season if we signed him this month. If he doesn't start or look amazing this season the experience could allow him to hit the ground running next season.
  17. Sammy Ameobi (I think Shola is too old for this now)
  18. I think there is a problem with that corner, Anita was clearly bothered by something
  19. Phil Jones, Chris Smalling or Lescott sound the obvious three, but there could be others.
  20. Assuming that there is some grave health concern, i think that the club should go out and tell Alex Ferguson, Roberto Mancini , Rafael Benitez, Wenger, Villas Boas, AC Milan, Barcelona what it is. I am sure if Colo does need to go back to Argentina for the season one of these will help us.

    Regardless of the performance, his sending off was a travesty because the referee was looking in the wrong direction for the first booking and guessed a yellow card. The ref needs sacking for that
  22. That's because they're not one dimensional. Diagonal ball to target man every time you get in the final third. Predictable but it works and adds excitement To be fair though I'd be happy if we made such a system so effective.
