Of course Rene wants his old captain back

Martinez can slap five with Gus Poyet and Di Canio for giving Pardew's sides a fucking bumming.

He's not a full back.

I haven't a clue what this squad is capable of without the individual heroics of either Krul, Cabaye, Ba, Cisse, or Remy in the past 2-3 league campaigns. Currently we're resting on the laurels of Cabaye + Remy's goals; next season we won't have either. I've said many times that when I look at other mid-table clubs their players at least look somewhat competent trapping, passing, and dribbling the ball. Our players all look fine at their former clubs, and their initial run in the team, but some who require constant coaching (which isn't a bad thing) seem to lose their way. We've got ourselves a talented squad but we've not a chairman or manager who is capable of identifying how to build these players into a squad correctly, and when we do have these players, we aren't coaching them in any manner to play to eachother strengths or elevate their individual games.

Yep. Missed a trick there tbh. They'd probably be fighting it out for a CL place.

Our squad is weak and not equipped in any of the right areas + coupled with a defeatist manager and poor backroom staff. Most of our players look timid, scared, nervous, and unable to express themselves. Only mad nutters like Tiote and Hatem look any bit of men who believe in their own ability (and that's rare when they actually look themselves too!). The rest look beat down and unconfident. How we go from turning over lower sides and playing well to showing up on a given day and play a 70 minutes like we've lost is beyond me.

MYM, Anita, Sissoko, and Hatem if dropped weight. I couldn't give a fuck about the rest. Honorable mention to Cisse if all he had to do was finish.

Be perfectly happy to see only MYM here next season. Quite frankly and this will go down well...there's seriously a handful (if that) of players worth keeping. Most need replacement. MYM is a complete shadow of a player who captained his club side, had the personal belief of a young man poised to be a French regular, and a title winner. It's insane the night and day. Talk about the PL being a better league and all that - you can see when a man has confidence in his own ability and self belief - its been completely zapped out of him.

We need full replacement of CBs.

This is the example of a club who hired the right manager who can not only develop players, but has a good football ethos, and can turn decent - good - great players into a real squad. I hate Everton b/c I'm jealous at what an inspired appointment can do to a club. It's blatantly obvious.

There's seriously not a single player I'd be arsed about selling anymore. Completely indifferent.

Everton can fuck off man.

har har

There's a fuck load of fight in this team, I'll say that.

Mother fucking A if only we had Remy out there.

I slumped like Keegan at Anfield....just now.

Don't know why Mapou was so late on getting that back into the box, then he basically stopped running at half-way line - had he busted his gut the entire way he may have been able to stop Barkley when he cut in.

fuck off

fuck off uriah rennie
