Hoorah.

I respect alot of our players actually. The only ones i don't have respect for are the talentless grafters like Barton and Smith - Plus Carr, although i would call him a grafter. Owen annoys me aswell.

Is this good enough? No. Is he doing all he can with what he's got? I fucking hope not. Are you happy with the performance from the players? No. Are you happy with the formations & tactics? Nooooooo. Are you happy with the results so far? No. Will he get it right given time? I've having my doubts. He doesn't seem to be learning from his mistakes. Has the club progressed? On the field i would say no. We've had an easy run of games which makes our league position look alright, i think it will be lower come the end of the season. Is our near future with the manager? Yes. Have you felt proud at any time this season? A couple of games yes.

Derby are still rubbish, it's just that our midfield is woeful and can't control a game.

Andy Gray is just disgrace tbh, he treats a live game like it's "the Andy Gray" show, like we've tuned in just to hear what his deinitive opinion on absolutely everything. And the chap who said he favours the top 4 is right, i remember against Arsenal Oba was called offside at the end of the first half, the replay showed he was clearly on and he kept saying "Ah 50/50, 50/50. Bollocks to 50/50, look at the replay you fat little pervert!!!

£15m?! All the numbers i've heard have been half that.

Crouch isn't exactly shy of diving himself, the cheeky git.

Arshavin Lassana Diarra/Manuel Fernandes Anelka

I like him, but i'd like to think we'd learnt our lesson when it comes to buying sick notes.

Our midfield makes me cry. I really hope we strength it in january.

No, we've got enough grafters. We need technical players that can hold onto the ball and create openings.

Brown is error prone, he isn't an improvement on what we've got IMO.

Second that. Money grabbing whores, the lot of them. They should be disbanded.

How many times has he played left wing this season? It's only a couple isn't it? I remember he played on the right a couple of times aswell.

Or Geremi.

I would like to see us stick with the current formation but move Zog in an attacking midfield role, with Milner staying where he is and Enrique coming in at LB. That way we would have a bit more pace and creativity in midfield. Obviously the Zog playing there wouldn't be guaranteed to work, but i say it's worth a try.

I agree with everything you've said.

Yes i've seen him play, i've not just plucked an opinion out of thin air. So far everything he's done here has confirmed my opinion aswell.

The reality sometimes is actually real. [Parky/] No, you've lost me. The Allardyce out crew are ignoring some of the home truths/realities reg our squad. Our midfield doesn't stand up to proper scrutiny. I'm not part of the Sam out crew, but it is his fault. I was dead against the buying of Barton and Smith, they're all hardwork and no quality. Barton has a great deal of quality. Barton is a grafter, always has been. He's never been a good technical player and his passing has always been dodgy.

Not exactly an abundance of alternatives and if Barton rediscovers his form from last season that would be a big leap forward. I'm sure if you asked a scout i'm sure he could name you quite a few good technical players around europe, we didn't have to buy english.

Our midfield is atrocious, they can't pass, they have no vision, no footballing brain, the list goes on. Barton, Geremi, and Smith make me grimace every time they get the ball. They do work hard though, i'll give them that.

But people are booing BECAUSE the team is playing badly, not the other way around.

Is this sarcasm? No, i think for a new player that is yet to put in a good performance he's being really quite cheeky. Talk isn't going to win people round.

Who does he think he is ffs?!! He can't play well unless the fans are worshipping him? The guy should keep his face shut, concentrate on his football, and pick up his fat wages at the end of every week. Honestly, i'm flabbergasted.
