I don't. He was a decent-ish player that wasn't really interested when he first came here, and since his return from Birmingham hes been a generally poor player with the odd decent game here and there.

He may well want to leave but the very first line of that article makes the whole article sound utterly fucking pathetic.

The thing is, for me personally, he's already shown a great deal more than Jenas showed in his time here. Jenas had the technique and vision, but hardly ever applied himself. IMO Guthrie is the real deal in terms of application, and long may it continue to improve. The key is for the player not to believe his own hype and just get on with things. My Jenas-loathing aside (which has subsided considerably, it must be said), I'm not sure Guthrie has quite yet matched what JJ did for us here just yet. He was very, very good at times and scored some hugely important goals. I was always a big fan of Jenas, him and Dyer gave us a fantastically high powered engine room during our Champions league years. I don't think he has made the most of his ability though, either here or since he moved to Spurs. I'm not sure he's hungry enough to dominate games week in week out, and that's what Guthrie has to look to do. I always thought Dyer ran himself into the ground by half time, particularly early on in his time with us. I wouldnt say he really had a big engine. Just uber quick!

The only real alternative I can think of to stopping teams buying their way out of trouble would be to introduce a cap on the amount that can be spent per season. I don't know whether that would work though.

Jenas was very good in his first season for us. Just a shame that his career is pretty much living off the back of that.

You know I've had my share When my chairman left home for a brown eyed man I really didn't seem to caaaare He knows now what it means to be alone He sure don't wish he was at home.....

I got 46 points.

Its a shame your avatar doesnt involve the smug grin he pulls before making a tit of himself there. The end bit reminds me of when Robert smashed the ball into Bernards head

I'm not saying he didn't score. I'm just saying that it wasn't the fantastic piece of work that most people seem to have persuaded themselves to think. FFS, he was one on one on the goalkeeper, inside the penalty area, in ten yards of space when he received the ball. You'd back any Premiership striker to score from that position. The finish itself (not the first touch), really was class, I fail to see how you can't see that.

this idiot hasnt got a clue. Makes those two late headers up here from Bramble & Faye even worse now...would have been sitting pretty in 8th. That is fucking depressing!

Would be nice to see West Ham plummet now as well. Oh and just for shits I'd like to see Hull lose every game between now and the end of the season and go down

If he reminds me of anyone its Steven Gerrard, not that I'm saying he's as good as him by the way.....

It's cos he's with his pal innit!

Some people are never happy. Quality player in my opinion, the only questionable lack of end product from him is with his shots, hes already assisted a fair few this season.

Can't really argue with that. Other than perhaps Butt deserving of a 7 maybe...

I agree, I thought Guthries delivery was generally very good today.

Very satisfying result, no-one played poorly today. I thought N'Zogbia was quite quiet early on but came into the game well. I thought Enrique had a very good game, as did the rest of the back four (bar one uncharacteristic fuckup from Colo), and we deserved our win. I really hope we push on from here, though I'm not completely ready to shake the feeling that we're gonna be there or there abouts all season.

When we lack depth and are in massive turmoil, I couldn't think of many worse players to bring in than a really injury prone, negative attention attracting mouthy twat.

I'm not overly a fan of Zoggy in central midfield either, but we are pretty stretched there at the moment. I've just read that Guthrie actually has more chance of making the game than Duff anyways, so I'd just stick Zoggy on the left and guthrie in the middle.

I wouldnt mind seeing: Given Beye Colo Bassong Enrique Geremi Jonas Zoggy Duff Owen Martins Although I'm not sure how Geremi would be able to cope with little defensive assistance.

Apparently Aalborg wouldn't give that much as they are replacing him after this match. well yeah. Im sure the fans would probably have him though

Anyone see the Aalborg manager with his fans then? What I would give to have a manager that we have that kind of raport with.

Beat Arsenal 1-0, 3 years ago today. Probably the best game I've ever seen Scott Parker have.

Couple of goals for Kazenga!!
