Time to build for the future. Harper has to be dropped.

Not sure he'd take a job that far south.

How on earth have Cardiff finished 4th 2 seasons running? They're an absolute disgrace every time I see them.

Honestly, I don't think we'll know how good Guardiola truly is until he's in his next job. He has the squad of players i've ever seen playing for him. Always going to be exceptions though.

He's an egomaniac, and a small club is obviously beneath him and his ice baths. He should take a look at the best in the business - Ferguson started at East Stirlingshire; Ancelotti at Reggiana.

Yep.

No Latin, thanks.

No chance.

He's a solid shot stopper, as Harper was at that age. He commands his area poorly, as you'd expect for a lad of his age.

Would be interested in the England job.

The average loony in the street has more pace than Shola.

Allardyce, Keegan and Kinnear badly misused the lad whilst rolling out the red carpet for the likes of Butt, Smith and Duff.

Not even Seb Larsson wants to be here, man. I'd rather not fill the team with the likes of Fabrice 'black man with black and white heart' Pancrate, thanks.

Simpson's transition has been amazing? He's contributed less than zero going forward and has done OK defensively.

Think it's about £450K.

The second legs of the playoffs always are. Last season's in particular.

Hughton did a job, just like Nolan did a job. Neither belong at a club with any real aspiration.

Turboshite would be your mate, for about 10 seasons I might add.

Sitting by while Lee Dixon shat all over Enrique too. Pathetic.

Overall reflections Looking at what I wanted us to achieve back in August, pretty much all expectations have been met or exceeded. We've avoided the relegation battle, moved in the right direction in terms of evolving the midfield and generated a lot of optmism for next season, which is obviously needed to make SJP a fortress once more. Yet again, the squad has been severely compromised by a horrible January transfer window, and we're about to arrive at a crossroad as a result. Replacing Hughton looks a very good decision. Just hope we can get some magic in the squad, because the spine has revealed itself to be stronger than most. High Moment A fair few actually. Probably the Villa game. Felt like we were a PL team again, and it was nice. It was lovely, truly lovely. Low Moment The sale of Carroll and the gutless defeat to Fulham a couple of days later. Kicked the TV when the final whistle went. Haven't been that angry since the last time we lost 1-0 to those West London c***s. Best Player Comes down to Coloccini or Tiote. Colo just edges it for me. Quite simply the best CB i've seen at the club, and no reason he can get even better as his understanding of the Engish game improves even further. Best Individual Performance Ben Arfa against Everton, Coloccini against Arsenal (a) or Tiote in the same game. Special mention to Nolan for the key goals against Scum. Best Buy Has to be Tiote. It's lovely having a player with rough edges who can dominate a game, mainly because we've had the exact opposite type of players in CM in recent years. He's the player we've needed for close to a decade, and it's absolutely imperative that we keep him. Most Improved Andy Carroll or Leon Best. I'd have said both were Championship strikers before August but both have stepped it up. Carroll's improvement in the most staggering i've ever seen in football tbh. Best looked sharp in pre-season, and carried that into into the PL after his injury.

Good to see Forest failing.

What a waste of a post.

As good as Suarez is, the goals haven't exactly flown in from him either. They'll need to get a few players in to get the best out of the partnership.

Shearer obviously thought our biggest weakness was in defence and the goals would come with Owen, Martins and Viduka up front. Which is possibly why he set us up to keep clean sheets first and foremost. Incredibly, he was a pundit 6 months later and still spouting the same crap about our biggest weakness being in defence - with the best defensive record in The Championship. The guy's just completely clueless.

Rubbish.
