  1. You don't think we need another striker, Baggio?
  2. Mick McCarthy. Brian Kerr, Steve Staunton, Giovanni Trapattoni. Spot the odd one out like. (That said, Mick McCarthy did a fantastic job for us in my opinion.)
  3. Agree. Sad a state of affairs as it may be, we have no choice but to play Nicky Butt at the moment as he's the only one who has any ability whatsoever to play the holding role. Faye is an option I'd like to see there, but we need a change at CB as well as Taylor+Cacapa look like a disaster of a pair. Shame we didn't get Woodgate, really.
  4. plus ugly Plus brilliant footballer. Wouldnt exactly call him "brilliant" tbh. I would. +1
  5. Can't believe anyone actually watched Chelsea v Liverpool. Always an absolutely wretched game.
  6. Barton is a gamble, Enrique shows he could made it in the EPL while Smith is plain s***---but Ashley's shirt and the captaincy seems to show it's his personal favour rather than Sam's. Not backing SA but together with Beye and Faye, are his signings really that bad? My point was more about his ability to spend big money, we know he can find solid, bargain type players. And his big money signings have all failed miserably thus far, although Enrique I do agree can still be a good player for us one day.
  7. To be fair, the three players Allardyce spent any significant money on were Barton, Smith and Enrique. Would you have felt comfortable giving him much more money? He was unlucky with certain things, nobody can be expected to turn things around in 8 months. But in the time he was here he really didn't do himself any favours at all, so trying to totally absolve himself of blame is completely ridiculous.
  8. Duff is far slower than Milner. That's the reason why he never tries to cross. Sorry, but no, he's not. Milner is possibly the slowest winger I've ever seen in my life.
  9. Ah go bum yourself in the face.
  10. Duff and N'Zogbia on the wings and Martins up front is enough pace for any team. We just suck at using pace effectively. Duff isn't fast. Neither player can deliver balls like Petrov either. With have one of the most lead legged teams in the Premiership. I find it funny when people talk about Arsenal not being a particularly pacey team. Everyone of their starting XI is stronger, fitter, faster than ours. We'll get bummed by Manure no question. Duff's hardly slow is he? Not electric fast but give him a couple of yards of a start and he's not gonna get chased down like Milner would for instance. And yeah, we'll almost certainly get bummed by Man U but that wasn't the point I was disputing.

  12. He's better on the left IYAM. Better than Duff or N'Zogbia, IYO? he was last season He sure was.
  13. No way Spurs will get rid of Lennon.
  14. Zoggy's run against Man U. Would have been one of the greatest dribbling goals I've ever seen had he finished it off, wish he'd just hit the thing and at least forced a save at the end of it though.

    Alan Smith

    Dreadful player, shocked at how bad he is. I'd genuinely rather start Shola.
  16. He's better on the left IYAM. Better than Duff or N'Zogbia, IYO?

    Brrrap!

    Why were sound effects from the Super Mario games being defiled by their inclusion in such a song?
  18. I've been whinging about people mentioning him for months. Miserable sod.
  19. Pfft, I said this should have been brought in back when they only allowed 3 subs tbh.
