Teasy

Any chance of us playing any kind of Football disappeared the moment Tiote replaced Anita.

Most obviously penalty you'll ever see, refs looking straight at it, when was the last time we got a pen?

Completely sick to death of this useless prat playing every game, fucking abysmal.

On the Bailey's already?? Hah, nah not drinking today. Too much Bourbon last night and the night before. Do like the odd Baileys at Christmas/New year though

Our squad has certainly shown that it's better than the league position, it clearly is, however I don't think we are top 8 material without a number of signings. The squad we have got are better than the position that we are in, it's just a case of getting them to show up. It's not better than the position shows, our form the a whole 12 months has been rotten. Aye half of that was with Carver in charge though. Here's a quick look at our form in the last 12 months under Carver and McClaren: First half under Carver - 9 points Second half under Carver - 4 points First half under McClaren - 6 points Second half under McClaren - 11 points EDIT: Finally got it right

1-2 win.

Shelvey might be a decent player, but he doesn't score much and doesn't create much either, don't agree that he'd be a great signing.

You mean apart from the clear cut chances we created?

Ian Wright - "With no due respect to Fabricio Coloccini"

Despite our position it's not close to half as soul destroying to watch as "Football" under Pardew.

Weren't some people saying he was on another level to Wijnaldum at the start of the season? He annihilates Wini. At chess maybe. I'd assume there's a reason Depay went to Man Utd and Wijnaldum went to one of the worst teams in the league like Aye ok, he still looks shit and has produced far less for Man Utd than Wijnaldum has for one of the worst teams in the league though. I suppose potential is the reason, since he's nearly 5 years younger than Wijnaldum.

In other words Taylor is back until the summer. So they hope he can stay fit until his contract runs out and they can shift him out and bring someone in with the wages they would be paying him. Pathetic attitude really, especially since our current center back pairing isn't good enough to begin with. Can only hope its a case of playing things down so clubs don't think we're desperate for a new defender. But in reality their's almost no chance of that being the case.

Course they won't give Taylor a new contract. Ashley's a Footballing moron no doubt, but even he will see that paying someone millions every year to be constantly injured is a waste of money.

Should just give him away if necessary, we'd save more than that in wages from now till the end of the season.

There's also a big difference in our pressing against a team like Liverpool and a team like Villa. The players just don't work as hard if they're not playing against a "big" side.

There wouldn't be enough places available up front for both Mitrovic and Perez. Since obviously Gouffran would have to start... As if we'd play Gouffran up front Nah Gouffran would have to be the 5th body in midfield (since he's obviously so great at it) leaving one place for our teams designated attacker. With Ameobi gone its a toss up who would get the job of having the ball kicked at him while stranded 20 yards from any of his team mates.

Pardew would certainly have played hoofball right from the start, continued to tell players to have as little possession as possible because its too dangerous and focused 100% on counter attack in every game. That would almost definitely have gotten us more points from the first several matches simply because we'd have conceded less. But would I say that makes Pardew a better manager?, well I've disagreed with Mclaren quite often lately, but no I don't think he's worse than Pardew as a manager.

"A lot of my management is about my front foot"

They're hardly the same teams now as they were then like. I mean West Ham were bang in form back then, right now they look horrendous.

We'll be in the bottom 3 tonight if it continues like this. Aye Swansea have to score soon. West Ham cant keep the ball, every time they get it its hoofed to a Swansea player or passed out of play. Its like "Big Sam" never left.

West Ham are fucking turbo shit.

Been a terrific manager that Pards apparently..
