Sickening. cant be bothered to find the post but said in the summer that Given wouldn't our keeper by the end of the season, still almost shocking to see that. fuck it, he's gone and probably wont be Man City's keeper for longer than a season and a half

Jonas battled so hard but I find it quite incredible so many saw him as motm

yep, she sits next to me in the Gallowgate

50 goals in 9 seasons, jesus what strikes me about Shola is the fact that he played alongside Shearer for over 5 years he has no clue how to use his body whatsoever. You could stick Craig Bellamy on him, and he'd still be outmuscled and beaten in the air time and time again, it's incredible

both Duff and Taylor dived, both are divers, no change there whatsoever.

Private planes are still ok to land aren't they? Private planes and planes from abroad still going, UK internal planes aren't. Highly doubt that, private planes can do whatever the f*** they want my mistake

Would be a good buy, swap for Duff? would be a hell of a buy, have wanted us to sign him for over a year

Selling our best players? We've sold a keeper who put in a transfer request that we have a ready replacement for and one of the most under achieving player we've had for a long time. When was the last time Zog had a good game by the way?, I really can't remember. Huh? Along with Martins he is our most threatening player. Even this season, if you ignore his appearances at LB. Underachieving yes but doesn't ignore the talent, if the club was more stable either of them wouldnt leave - seeing as they both signed contracts recently. Players brought/bringing in. Taylor a defender good enough for championship takes a mean free kick and Kevin 'no good game in 2 years' Nolan. I remember when we signed Duff, Chelsea fans were saying aint had a good game in about a year. Same thing is happenning 'o all he needs is a change, better environment here, first team football.. will come good'. Johnson would be a good move but my optimism is at rock bottom. Most threatening player?, when? Yes he has talent but that means f*** all if its very VERY rarely used. He's done nowt for us this season, just like last season. As for our two most threatening players, Jonas and Martins, N'Zog isn't even on the list overall because he's only threatening once every 10 games. I'm not going to argue this anymore, I think you have an agenda because he's left and you have the hump with him. He has been threatening when played in his natural positions more games then not, which is an achievement considering just how s*** we are. First half of last season he was our best player behind Martins upto December, also the part of that season when KK started to win games he was very good too, so don't understand the 'f*** all' comment there. You didn't really defend what I said about the signing brought in mind? You agree with me on that? When KK started to win games he wasn't in the team. He made 32 league appearances out of 38, yes some of them sub. Hardly not in the team. you said when KK started to win games

That is absolute rubbish, he wasn't even a part of Keegan's 4-3-3 we're talking about a player who after his great form of 05-05 has netted just 3 times for us, get over it man

It was very difficult to figure out who was the winger and who was the full-back at times yesterday

I don't agree. I always get the impression from him that he'd rather score than make a positive impact on general play. And the amount of times he ends up on the floor and stays there unnecessarily is a fucking disgrace

Arshavin is nearly 28 years old and he's wasting another 6 months of his career due to stupid wage demands. Grade A cunt

He really really was an absolute disgrace yesterday

Would have been happier with the cheaper Mbia to be honest

Played well yesterday I thought, with the exception of the goal

He isn't the answer yet, far too one paced and lacking in technique. If only we could send him out on loan for a couple of season

The fact is, when he becomes available for selection again he has to start, given that Xisco no longer exists

motm by a mile yesterday, only Enrique came close

You've got to be joking. You've doubted me before haven't you ............. We'll concede a penalty every game with those two together. My main issue with Taylor aren't his attributes, but the fact that he hides when he is needed defensively. How many games have we seen where Taylor literally disappears from the game and his partner is left to do most if not all of the defending? I'm glad other people have noticed this as well. How does he make so many mistakes then? Because when things do come his way he can't handle things. It's true though, whenever we need players to stand up he hides away from the action, then as soon as the incident happens just stands there and points. Total cowardice. Then he tries and plays the battling Geordie lad role by doing stupid things that he thinks will win him points with the crowd, clattering into Reina for example. Despite the fact that he doesn't have the abilities to be a good player anyway, that's what makes good players and separates the good players from the great players. Look at someone like Gazza, even when he was having a bad game, he never hid, never. When some people with that much talent do. Obviously he knew how good he was so that helped. But if you haven't got the ability to start with at least try your best to make it up with any kind of character you have. Something going by Taylor's performances on the pitch he doesn't have, then he comes out to the press talking all of this rubbish, he's a fraud. Simple as. which should have earned him a red card, when we already had Beye and Enrique injured and Bassong suspensed ridiculous

indeed. In his prime with Keegan he played a bit like Lampard, although not as good tbh. Great player was Lee, certainly along with Bearsley and Cole the main reason we finished 3rd in 93-94

Henrik?? My bad. Wouldn't go near him.

When are we allowed to say he's not been good enough? When he's gone in the summer having been relegated as the most expensive defender in the club's history? The lad needs a season in a normally funtioning team, not this shower of s****. Who was the last defender a club paid £10m for who needed 12 months to settle in? His weaknesses, being getting turned, physical weakness & appalling defending when forwards are attacking the ball into the box, aren't anything that will be fixed by having time to settle. He needs to start looking like a good defender now. Errr...Vidic? tbh Liam's argument is flawed anyway as it's fair to say that most teams in a position to spend £10m on a defender generally have a decent enough midfield in place problem being that quite a lot of people said that all we needed was defenders, in spite of myself and one or two others saying the setup of the team with regard to being more offensive was the real weakness.] I'm pleased to see that you have now came around to my way of thinking. As for Coloccini, hes' OK, we have 3 good centre halfs at the club, but Taylor and Bassong are the best combination. Best combination based on one game? based on my judgement on the attritubes of the players, and what I prefer to see from my central defenders playing in this league that we play in. They've only played together once so it's impossible to state for if they're a better partnership than Coloccini and Bassong. I doubt we'll see that partnership again either unless Coloccini gets injured. I think playing together once is pretty much irrelevant to the judgement mate, I think they both have the most important attritubes to be first choice If you mean understanding between them, then that only comes through playing together. You really spoil yourself with your stupid opinions. Taylor a good defender. He continues giving away goals and basically looking out of his depth every game and you still consider him a good defender, honestly. Admit you were wrong about him like most have

rather have him on the wing tbh but I agree
