  1. There was little wrong with Marveaux's fitness last year but he doesn't fit the style of the team. The style is dictated by the manager and he doesn't fancy him. I think Pardew probably has a fair appreciation of what Marveaux can do but he's also extremely concious of what he can't. Marveaux isn't Pardew's kind of player, plain and simple. Pointless him taking up wages for the odd sub appearance.

    Darren Bent

    We could really do with a player of Barton's energy. We need midfielders who can cover an inordinate amount of ground imo. He's the best 4-4-2 'winger' we've had under Pardew, anyway. 'Working wide man' You know nuffing Yorkie Snow

  4. Yet to be convinced he can adapt to the Prem and totally unconvinced he can adapt to our team as it is. Transfer away probs best option for everyone.
  5. Younes Belhanda joins Dynamo Kiev. Fee believed to be 10M Euros.
  6. We really didn't even bid??
  7. Why would that be important?
  8. For all his talent he doesn't go looking for the ball enough. He's got the skills to really dictate things but not the personality it seems.
  9. Surely average is relative to the sample set being referred to? Therefore, in a league of 20, 5th is not average. And to be once place of CL spots is not average either.
  10. All the best music shops are in Berwick Street anyway.
  11. You are aware he breaks your rules in your previous post? Total hypocrisy but it seems alright when he does it
  12. I might also add that watching Interpolic lay into someone is often a complete highlight of my working week (seriously) so by all means, do carry on
  13. Full of emo kids this place at times Emo or not he's right. Really? Show me one shred of evidence that we are 'looking at Darren Bent' I mean actual evidence not a quoteless article in the Daily Planet. Edit: Is there a website that lists every PL transfer so far? Just want to see how 15 clubs have pushed ahead of us so far. If by evidence you mean quotes from the club actually stating interest, then that means we aren't in for Bony, Aubamayeng or Gignac either. We don't have proof we are in for Bent, as you don't have any proof we aren't. I am not the one crying over it though, we have plenty of time to sign people. You dont need to go into mass depression with every transfer story when 99% are complete bollocks. Although you're completely right i do think that a forum is often a place where people can dump their emotional outbursts without suffering embarrassment for it. Not directing this at you but posters who go to great lengths to appear 'above it all' and rational are a) less fun ( i enjoy reading people ranting and pouring over the side - they can be genuinely funny with it) and b) more disingenuous, bit too much sly oneupmanship going on imo. As i say, not directed at you, nearly all transfer tittle tattle is utter bollox but the over reaction is what makes threads worth reading and contributing to. Imho.
  14. You're practically bi-polar.
  15. This lot have proved quite poor at increasing our revenue. However, they've done the sensible thing with the debts.
  16. I was thinking earlier who wouldbe the perfect DM for Brazil. It didn't take long before I came to the conclusion that Javi Martinez is the guy. Luiz Gustavo does that role of DM/third central defender extremely well, but there's a reason to why Javi Martinez is ahead of him at Bayern. Can't think of anyone other than Martinez who would do that role so good. The way we play the DM needs to be a tall ball winner who is also comfortable on the ball and doesn't make any forward runs. f***ing Spain man Jucilei da Silva?
  17. Reminded me of Benjani(not just in looks) when i watched him in one game He reminded me of Jason Scotland He must have been turboshit that game if you mean more than just looks wise [/quote Reminded me of Benjani(not just in looks) when i watched him in one game He reminded me of Jason Scotland He must have been turboshit that game if you mean more than just looks wise It was the way the ball bounced off him by about 2 yards when he 'received' it and he proceeded to run over the defender who collected his 'trap', run 10 yards with his head down and then blast it. He does hit the ball well, mind. Gets a good connection. Reckon he could concuss you from the penalty spot tbh!

    Dan Gosling

    He has no obvious qualities that would put him ahead of our even most crap/underperforming players. He's not even better than Jonas at CM.
  19. Reminded me of Benjani(not just in looks) when i watched him in one game He reminded me of Jason Scotland
  20. Have only seen a little bit of Bony but i thought his touch was quite heavy but that doesn't matter given the extraordinary amount of time defenders in the Dutch league give opposition players. He certainly won't get that here. Based on what little i saw, i don't think he'd do that well in this league.

    Graham Carr

    Which one of Graham Carr's signings has been an unqualified success?

    Graham Carr

    Gosling was the only poor one i listed. Obvs don't don't know the extent he was involved.

    Graham Carr

    If they were top, top quality players i think they would look it tbh.
