There's no pressure on Wigan to survive, so when it comes to the dogfight they have a little advatange over the other lot in trouble. Last season's survival was incredible. Win their final 2 games to stay up after not winning for months, or something like that.

Jesus. This is no good.

Perch isn't a CB. He's a Championship RB/CDM/utility player.

He's injured, mate.

and statement like that without taking into account the opponents is not only "malignant nonsense" but stage 4 cancer to be honest! Does anyone else see a statement? p*ss off.

Has this been posted?

I wouldn't worry, the disgusting old bastard hopefully won't last much longer.

Why not just use the £35m from the Carroll sale and the £1m profit we made by replacing Enrique with Santon? Just doesn't make any sense. At all.

Him and Colo worked as a pairing from their first game together against Palace. They're a very good fit.

Nah, he'll start.

For goodness sake.

His footballing brain is good, he's just not a natural with the ball at his feet.

Boiled down to its essence.

One win in the league? Hmmm.

Bobby would have played him every game and told everybody how good he was, they would have loved each other. Its times like this that makes me really miss Bobby and demonstrates the gulf of difference between Bobby and wannabes like Pards. Apart from his preference for Bowyer over Solano towards the end, Bobby was always spot on in the way he managed flair players. He would have gotten the best out of HBA and let him play his natural game, Pardew's constant negative sound bytes is just going to inhibit his game and at can be demotivating What a crock. Robson could be just as bad, especially in the way he failed to make the most of Viana. Aye. Malignant nonsense as per usual.

What? So just because we are doing well, Pardew is immune to criticisms? I'll remember next time you open your mouth on him. Everyone is open to 'criticisms'. Calling him daft names, and using your hero as currency against him isn't fair. Neither is comparing his situation to Bobby's, for the reasons I outlined.

Aye, a wannabe who's on course to beat the points totals from our last 7 Premier League seasons, including Bobby's last one. And how many 'flair' players did Bobby have? You could argue that Robert was one, certainly, but his statistics, directness and contribution towards Shearer's game made him undroppable. As per usual, Ben Arfa should come first.

That dog at the end.

I'm generally an advocate of athletes using sensible weight training to get stronger and faster, but it's simply obliterated his balance, his agility, his unpredictability, and made him even slower. His frame and his lungs can't take it and as a consequence his general mobility and workate would make your average 45-year-old pub player blush.

The last 15 seconds, man.

Just started.

Exactly.

2-2. Barca are shit.

I was across the pond when he signed. What exactly was said about ambition?

Got booked for nowt last week.
