cant wait to see him grin through this one shit face weasel

Wouldn't be surprised if we see him and Coloccini there for as long as he's fit now with Mbemba going in at left-back when he's back. well the fact they are mentioning scans I recon its weeks for mbemba, and also I recon its colback at leftback as soon as he is fit because he has to play obviously.....

liverpool had 75% of the possession but its not about that its about putting the ball in the back of the net when you get a chance which explains the reason why they always find a way to drag themselves out of the shit season after season

alot less pressure today than some sides will allow him but fair play to him for covering in a role he obviously isnt suited to

I wonder what will happen first he is replaced by one of the injured players coming back or he does something rash to get red carded/ breaks down like an alpha romeo?

Still an 8 from me we can't string two performances together so could be right back in the shot depending on the results points wise we don't have any form of cushion or margin of error with the current bottom 3 beyond one set of results so could do the cycle of trading places for a while yet

We need him lads he is s true Geordie just what the doctor ordered according to mclaren seen as the docs have fucked up everyone else he don't have a choice but to play captain caveman

the man is making a toon career out of nearly scoring nearly as much as Cisse liked to be offside

to think we waited all this time to back a manager and put our lot in with this half hair headed cretin

we were getting back into the game after a nervy start the injury messed with the flow abit it was a game changer but we were marvellous in defeat I am confident "insert cheesy grin" we will stay up and Saturday is what we will focus on. translated to, we were useless the players are bought by committee and I mentioned English players too many times by god they are shit but least I will get my lumper regardless win loose or draw has no effect on me at all stupid supporters

we are so lucky dummet has been passed fit and brought back into the side no left back needed.......

so negative so defensive despite buying no new defenders and having one of the poorest defensive records in the league, playing to DM may have changed for now but we still sit too deep as a form of protection which so far this season hasnt worked for shit

based on so far Villa have more chance of getting out of this than us we are that bad

exactly, we are relying on 2/3 sides to go on a poor run and for us to do something we have been simply incapable of doing in more than a year not wanting to dismiss the new signings and their potential influence on our fortunes or style of play but effectively it may not turn around straight away and if it doesnt it may be too late to catch 1/2 to get to 16th /17th what a season whoever in the board descided to state top 8 needs to be taken outside and shot.

If we loose to Everton its a massive pressure on the side as taking Norwich out of the equation everyone immediately ahead of us will then be 7 points ahead of us thats more than 1 win is going to solve and seen as so far the side cannot put two wins together on a regular basis we are going to be down there for a while adding more pressure. Not sure how much new signings has on the playing squad in terms of morale we just seem so fragile we are so in the shit it does not look very good. I guess I may calm down in the new lads gell and pull us collectively out of the shit but it we get served up same old same old we are fucked.

looking at the table scares me having a game in hand aside the gap is starting to form just hope we can get a run going which would be something we havent managed in a season and a half I am at an 8 at the minute.

I can understand protecting players and trying to keep some form of positive mindset but this ren and stimpy happy , happy joy joy shite he keeps pushing will eventually piss off even the most "give the guy a break" supporter. When we are shite I would much rather he tell it like it is, consistantly shit enough to be and deservingly so for most of the season in the bottom 3/5 teams you cannot use any superlatives to talk about performances when you have lost for the THIRD time newly promoted watford. His comments about the three changes made about the players were also so gag inducing I feel he must be either a great big twat or trying to look like one to make the convo about him being shite instead of 70% of the players. He used the term tremendous and then went on to say we are weak in both boxes and I know for a fact we didnt dominate in the middle so were exactly were we "tremendous" at rolling over and telling sides to fuck us long and hard and send us down with a wanker at the helm who will smile all the way to the last game of the season telling us "if we play like that every week we will be ok.......... in the championship"

Agreed a weak middle was part of our issues, the weak middle also contributed to the additional pressure the back four have been under this season, the middle has also reduced the number of goals a possible striker could score through lack of forward play and movement to free up areas of space. For that I think Shelvey is a great signing just what the middle needed and will help us improve however I wont be jumping up and down saying its been a great transfer window as we bought two midfielders which was my entire point as I still see us weak at centre half and left back and I dont see having our current strikers being enough to get us the goals we need. If we were signing 4 players this window and shelvey was amongst them then great if he is the only quality edition I still dont know if thats enough to see us through. That's quite a bit different from what you first said, which made it sound like we got midfielders we don't need. I don't think anyone would say our business should be done, but when the window opened CM was our greatest need and we've taken care of that (hopefully). will have to agree to disagree then, my original comment was when someone else proposed a reset of how many signings we will make this window. I personally feel if we had of signed a left back, centre half and striker and tried someone else from our current squad in the middle that would have been better than buying 2 midfield players and no one else. Ideally we will go on to buy a few more or loans and I will feel more happy.

We've had by far the worst CM pairing the league this season, and it's probably the two most important positions in the team. Upgrading it will improve us more than any other player would have.

above defenders and strikers? then no central midfield is the last on the pile for me You was happy with Colback and Anita/Tiote in the middle? Really? not my point exactly what I mean is if the window closes today and we sign no one else you really think 1. colback will no longer play in the middle 2. the two midfielders we signed will help our lack of a quality centre half and a left back 3. score the 10/15 goals missing in the side from a striker who can regularly score I dont think colback and anita are any good I dont want them in the side but mclaren has been keen on two defensive midfield players which again I disagree with as well.

so its a constant training or conditioning issue then?

end of window summary prediction we needed defenders and strikers we got midfielders and a pile on the injured list happy days

He's a good player. Young and English, resell potential. The fact that Middlesbrough just bid £9M for McCormack makes £15M for Berahino a bargain imo. except we could be talking 25/30 million and for a club that is still 50/50 for going down this season it is an expensive risk especially for a kid west brom just havent fancied this season despite his 20 goals last season.

I think Lee Ryder failed maths. More like failed at life he gets paid for this shit
