Don't have anything against him and hope he finds a new club. That said I'm happy enough for us to let him go. He has some talent for sure but I just don't think he has the mentality to be a consistently effective player for a club looking to push for Europe every season. He'd be a good addition for a newly promoted club or a team whose goal is just to stay up next year.

Depends on the fella. If it was Cabaye or something then you couldn't blame the lass for trying her luck there first.

Spanish guy in excited about the international tournament shocker. We're gonna destroy ye btw.

Flying out on Thursday, gonna be a mental couple of weeks. Absolutely can't wait, hope we don't just lose all three games in convincing fashion.

Fucking state of that jersey.

Sounds like he'd be a signing in the Abeid mould, looking a couple of years down the line with maybe the odd cup appearance in the short term. More signings like this the better IMO, long as there are a few for the first team as well of course. And yeah, being a Coventry fan sounds rubbish.

Aye, you just know he's an absolute dickhead.

Americans love a good "strong" challenge.

Well worked goal that.

This commentary duo of Ian Darke and the most American man in the world should be fun.

Honestly can't get my head around some of you lot seemingly wanting to see England get beat just because there's a couple of Newcastle lads playing against them.

Honestly hadn't heard of David Forde until just this minute.

Tbf we wouldn't be bad if we had some decent midfielders and defenders.

And fuck you Sewelly!

What's wrong with Jonas? Great squad player but to be honest I'm hoping that next year he won't be part of our strongest eleven. A new CM to play alongside Tiote and Cabaye in the 4-3-3 should be one of our main targets for the summer IMO.

McShane ffs, I genuinely hate the fucking sight of the ugly, useless cunt.

What a horrible little man.

The last ten pages or so. Fucking state of them.

With a few good additions to the squad this summer we should be able to have a good go at this next year. Take it seriously and try to win the fucking thing, that was the point of qualifying in the first place surely? Yes, we'll need to rest players from time to time but rather than resting the whole starting eleven at once you rest a couple of them at a time, when you feel the individuals need it. Let's say, for example, we sign Amalfitano, Hoilett, Pieters and Douglas this summer, with none of our good players leaving. You have three games in a week coming up, you feel that for most of the lads that'll be too much. Instead of just sacrificing one of the games and hoping the reserves get a result, you do something like this over the three games Krul Santon Taylor Colo Pieters Tiote Amalfitano Jonas Ben Arfa Ba Cisse ---------------------------- Krul Perch Douglas Colo Pieters Tiote Cabaye Marveaux Hoilett Ben Arfa Ba ---------------------------------------- Krul Santon Taylor Douglas Perch Cabaye Jonas Marveaux Hoilett Ba Cisse ------------------------------ There's three sides that I'd expect to give a good game to most teams, with nobody except Krul featuring in all three. And that's not taking into account that players like Obertan might be improved next year, or that Sammy, Abeid, Ferguson or Vuckic might take the step up and become useful squad players, or that Coloccini is made of steel and doesn't need to be rested. If we try and half arse our way through the Europe League we'll be out early, no question. Same applies for the Carling Cup and FA Cup in my eyes. If you feel some of the young lads are ready then give them a go, by all means. But one or two at a time. I want to see us win something. That should be the primary goal next year. Qualifying for Europe gives us an extra competition in which we can achieve that. If we don't give it a proper fucking shot it'll be a disgrace.

I like how he tried to cover his tracks by picking Wolves to lose 12 of their last 13 games after having them pushing for Europe all season. He must be balls deep in Mick McCarthy as we speak, there was never any reason to expect Wolves would be any good.

Really deserves to be in that squad, if they've genuinely got four better wingers than him to choose from they should win the thing at a canter. Just hope he makes it through the tournament with no injuries and is 100% for next season, we'll need him at his best next year if we're going to repeat this season's accomplishments.
