HawK

Which one?

I don't think he's gash, but we don't need him. 12m on Charlie Austin or another proven PL goalscorer would be money much better spent. 12m for Shelvey was vital, we needed a player like him in the middle imo.

Maybe Perez going the other way..

why would he replace wijnaldum? surely he wont be shifted out wide after his last 2 displays? Ask our Rocket Schientisht of a manager. Anything's possible.

I'd like Townsend but not at the expense of Sissoko or Wijnaldum. As a replacement for Sissoko (potentially), I'd have to wait and see how he settles here. You won't see me arguing for increasing the amount of English players at the club.

Argh thought there was a new one when it was bumped

Are you seriously suggesting he would develop into a better player sitting on our bench with our coaching and medical team rather than continuing to stay in a team where he has scored 16 in 22 in physical league despite his size?

However relieving it is not to see Colback and Anita together in the middle, I couldn't pick Thauvin over Perez, despite Perez's recent drop off in form. Apart from vs a League One team he's shown nothing since he's joined us, whereas Perez has won games on his own on occasion in the PL.

I thought that was a serious summary at first, totally threw me I was howling by the end

Colo is fucking inspired tonight

If we sign him and he isn't injured for the rest of the season, £10 says he'll get more assists in the second half of this season than Colback and Anita combined for the whole season.

Colback Free Agent, technically IIRC.

He could be immense for us. Like a petulant,lazy version of Cabaye.

Seen more chances and proper football in those highlights than any of the past 4 games put together tbh.

This How depressing is it that you just made me excited that we could get Patrick Bamford in.

Ten minutes Timed myself doing my own When the OP takes 10 minutes to fill out his own survey, you know you're in trouble

Looks like he branded himself with a molten scarab beetle.

The original post was tldr;

A hero in a half shell? We just don't have any fearsome fighters to call upon though.

Please make all the cut-outs of Mike Ashley so we can build up a compendium of outrageous and disgusting pictures that can be propagated all over the internet.

Useless, and still the best manager we'll get under this regime.

When we finished 5th under Pardew, this was how I remembered 90% of our matches that season: http://i66.tinypic.com/3145lk0.png Long ball to Cisse, he'd lose it (never win it in the first place), then the opposition would dictate the play.

I don't think you have to blame all of the players for that, especially 2 players who helped keep a dominant team our for 90+ minutes. I'm not. They were both poor in my opinion. The overriding point is neesy was really unfair to single out Perez as the worst player when so many were poor yesterday. The only players I'd credit yesterday were Mbemba, Sissoko, Wijnaldum and Elliot (up until that last moment). Other than Mitrovic, he was our worst player up until he went off. Gave the ball away needlessly many times where he would normally keep it.

He's just not as good as we need him to be.
