The College Dropout

Not sold on Reo Coker at all. Jenas has captained England at many levels and was also captain for us for awhile and we all know about him....

Why do people still take Vic seriously? Clearly either a WUM or someone that knows very little about football...

Totally agreed. Too much money in players that don't want to play for us... I want Owen to leave as well.

So was Boumsong.

If Souness consulted FM rather than his mate in Spain we would've singed Berbatov instead of Luque.

We took one step forward and two steps back when we sold Jenas and replaced him with Parker... atleast Jenas didn't have to do three pirouette's before he passed the ball back to Titus... Parker is still somewhat over-rated... a very average player who deserves a team like West Ham.

Definetely the shitter-less balding ginger version Sven.

The lad has a brilliant attitude, he works his socks off. He's just mentally unhinged, that's all.

lol but Scholes knows how to put himself about/closes down quickly and never sherks a challenge, despite being terrible at tackling, he also has alot of discipline in th role of CM unlike say a Kieron Dyer or Arteta (who can't play as a CM in a 442 in the Prem)

I don't think Playmakers are that important these days..mainly because they are often deployed as second strikers or wingers.

Aye he's a great destroyer but can't pass very well and we give the ball away enough as it is. I'd prefer another African. We need a big African in the middle. I love black people, don't you? They're brilliant No. Only pure Christian/Muslim Africans... (I think I need a wink)

Agreed, like a better version of Faye tbh. Breaks up play and gets about well but a very limited player. Honestly think that's harsh on the lad, he's a much better player than that. Looks good for Liverpool at times because he has a very basic role, namely to win the ball in midfield. Meanwhile Alonso alongside him has the task of passing it from the middle, while at the same time playing as a ballwinner in midfield himself. They play with two holding midfielders for the most part, think its easier to look good for him in a system like that. His touch can be a shambles at times too. I agree to an extent. Sissoko's only job for L'Pool is to win the ball.. but Alonso doesn't break up much play himself, a Spanish version of Michael Carrick.

Agreed, like a better version of Faye tbh. Breaks up play and gets about well but a very limited player. Faye couldn't even do that very well. Sissoko is much more atheletic and imposing. btw is Parker sure to be on his way?

Aye he's a great destroyer but can't pass very well and we give the ball away enough as it is. I'd prefer another African.

Didn't he play for Barca for a year or two? He looked crap for them but originally very good and looks great for Porto aswell.

Wasn't really worth posting was it?

I'm probably the only person who likes this thread.

Different player imo. Aye Davies can run.

I think Curtis Davies is currently a better defend than Tayls but I don't think they would be too great together. Davies sometimes looks nervous and panics...as does Taylor.

If we're after footballers let's go for that Messi fella...

I never knew the NBA had squads of over 80+ players.

We need much better defenders than Taylor.

No club in the world could afford the wages that Chelsea are currently paying. That must have atleast half a dozen players over 90k a week.... they'll need to let these players go and move to a bigger stadium before they can fully establish themselves with out Roman.

Darren Bent is by no means a target man We have an option to take a gamble with Carroll, or try and sign one those: Nikola Zigic, Jan Koller, Alan Smith (can work great as a target man) , Stefen Iversen (scored something like 20+ goals this season), etc.. But i don't think a player like Darren Bent will do us any good at the moment.. Darren Bent plays well upfront on his own for Charlton. Whilst not very big he's good in the air and is good at holding up the ball and bringing others into play.

An attacking 3 consisting of Zenden, Pennant and Kuyt are not good enough to win the CL but they were a deflection away from doing so. Finnan looked like he was injured/knackered so I can understand that substitution although he coulda flung Bellamy on RW and put Pennant as a WRB.... Tactically pretty sound but his substitutions were very poor
