when did you start saying this? an hour ago
-
His mental attributes are fine, he's just slow, clumsy and lacking in ability with the ball at his feet, doesn't mean he's a bad defender though.
-
I honestly couldn't care less anymore. But to be fair to Hughton one advantage he has over Shearer is his humility. The last thing we need is Shearer strutting in and laying down the law with the likes of Barton and the other underperformers, it doesn't work.

Fourth choice centre back behind Davies, Cuellar and Dunne? Who is Everton's fourth choice centre back? Or Spurs's? King, Woodgate, Bassong, Dawson........so Dawson. I'd be very surprised if Bassong gets benched to accomodate Woodgate
-
I don't see how, his concentration isn't bad and he rarely makes position errors. His lack of strength and pace is a problem but he appears to be adapting well and has definetly taken a more cynical approach in his first few championship games. Of course people like you will never give him a chance, you'll have a go at him constantly at the game then argue that every goal we concede is his fault, it's pathetic. Stop listening to Lawrenson and actually watch him, if of course you agree that it's possible to defend well without last ditch tackles.

I don't like the fact that people on this board seem incapable of giving praise to one player without being vindictive about another. Coloccini and Jonas would both walk into a championship best Xl and showed against Palace how important they are to us. The Jury is still out on Jonas' attitude but Coloccini has demonstrated a willingness to adapt and work hard recently. I'm very, very glad that both are still here.

Good signing. There'll be a good few saturday nights where we'll complain about the game passing him by but he'll defintely get goals. He'll also offer much needed penetration and somewhat intelligent movement alongside the brawn of Ameobi/Carroll/Ranger.
-
If we keep him, Taylor and Coloccini together we'll concede very few in this league

So does context not come into play at all? I said that rightfully, he should play against Reading on merit. Harper was terrible and injured, whereas Krul was fit and played absolutely brilliantly. It's not the same as saying he should be the number 1 goalie; but he deserved to keep his place for that game. fair enough. You weren't the only one, but the reaction to that WBA game was the most ridiculous thing i've experienced on this forum, people oblivious to Krul's mistakes and suddenly saying he was better than Harper, baffling. They said he was better in that game which he clearly was & that because of that he deserved to start the next game, which he did. Whats so baffling about it ? People saying that Krul was a better keeper based on 45 mixed bag minutes and you wonder what's baffling about that? Use your fucking head man Jayson

If our outfield wasn't so f***ing amazing i'd say quite the opposite. He's got faults that could see us drop quite a few points really; i'd certainly put the blame on him for that goal at West Brom earlier in the season. He's always been a really good shot-stopper but he's got all Given's other faults, just sorta multiplied. I don't love Harper at all, I think he has a fair few flaws, but I think he's still a lot more polished at his trade than Mr.Krul at this point in time. Understandably so. Would be 0 in 5 if it wasn't for his f*** up at West Brom. which looks somewhat favourable compared to Krul's 3 f*** ups against Huddersfield Is this strictly a Harper vs Krul argument? I was just speaking in general, i think LLLO was aswell. I'd have him over Krul but i'm still not totally comfortable with him as number 1. you seem to be changing your mind a lot in that respect mate In terms of GK, CM and CB there's absolutely nowt to worry about for me Really? We're only two injuries away from Simpson-Kadar being our centre back pairing. To be fair, I was talking about the first choice Xl. It goes without saying that we have no cover whatsover
-
Don't you think that with Harper?
-
to be fair, like Viduka we can sign him anytime we want, just preferably before the Cardiff game

you called Harper 'wank' and said Krul should play against Reading, right?
-
he learnt from the best
-
I'm amazed that nobody has snapped Van Nistelrooy up
-
Dunne's solid, had a bad season last time round but isn't a bad defender. Not good enough for a top 6 team though imo
-
I was referring to the Harper vs Krul arguement, this must be the third time you've changed your mind about who should be the no.1 this season

I really dont understand how there's an argument to be had here, he's not Pagliuca but he's solid, rarely makes mistakes after a run of games and is still a good shotstopper. If there's a better keeper in this league i've yet to see him

So Lovenkrands today and Viduka some time next week?
