I don't understand why our wingers always being singled out for criticism. Solano's the only exception. Robert is shit, Milner is shit, N'Zogbia is shit --- yet we are relegated because we sold all these "shit" players. Stop it, please.

Stephen Glass? Neesy, take a sleep. You are really talking bullshits. Without Jonas we even cannot bring the ball upfield. Can't you see that he's the integral part of all our short passing play?

Like I've said earlier if you check, the problem is the guy has no competition hence why he can play crap every game like we did when he got relegated, and still stay in the team. Looking at the likes of Smith, Nolan, Perch, Williamson, and Routledge, nevermind Campbell, Ameobi, Lovenkrands, and Raylor who's actually useless subs, and consider that we have no decent backup for Enrique, I think our money should be better spent somewhere else before "for a competition with Jonas".

Some people really need their head checked.

Apisith, that said, I will start him over Ameobi for that role. I am serious, I can see that if Nolan's dropped Ameobi will play instead of HBA.

I am divided. I am also worried that this will affect the team as a whole. However I couldn't deny that this is the most powerful weapon we have. Today we are a bit unlucky - if things' went in the right direction we should have scored twice or more by just relying on Carroll.

Who plays RB then?

I guess his reason is HBA plays better on the left.

Smith out before Nolan. At least we can get a draw.

I think it will harm the squad harmony if a player's dropped for no reason after a series of good performance/decent results. I agree that the question is when he will drop, not why he didn't drop today.

He dribbles like Messi to be honest.

To be honest, the only fault he did today is to pick Smith.

We are still more likely to get the 3 points until that fuxxking hell tackle. It ruins everything.

Please, let this be the last. Please.

Actually I don't think we are THAT bad. But Smith deserves an internal 10 match ban for that fucking stupid tackle. Ben Arfa <> Smith would do it, pull Nolan back to midfield. Tiote may sub Barton in 60 min.

Why, Smith, Why!?

We cannot complain much. Should we have an injury-free season, qualifying for Europe is definitely possible.

They deserve it.

I have never seen such a "boss" on the pitch since Vieira.

Just 1-2m for 1-2 left side cover is cnough. That said, I am also very willing to give Tavernier / Kazenga a chance. Our squad is already very large for a team which is not qualified for Europe.

Fxxking hell but true.

Not until we win a trophy / back to the Champions League.

If we are free from relegation battle, I will have no hesitation to throw in Krul or Forster. IF.

That said, Merlin, we would have to be REALLY STRICT towards the players' wage demand, just like how the club deal with Taylor's contract demand. That should be a good things though.

Yes but it's becoz we are too lucky in the last 12 months. We have 2 great transfer windows and our two young strikers - Carroll and Ranger - have been doing the job surprisingly well. Hughton has done sth while no mananger except Sir Bobby can do - building up a team. And to be honest, Ashley has "reasonably" backed Hughton. While he has not splashed out 10m for any so called "EPL proven" players, he did agree to clinch the deal for Tiote and HBA when it's obvious that these are bargaining deals with very limited risks. Credit where it's due.
