Ahahaha

This is just a shambles, man. Rubbish communication at the back, outnumbered and overrun in the middle, out-muscled up front. It's all been lazy as fuck too. Recipe for disaster. Worst thing is, players will most likely be scapegoated when some simple shifts in shape will make a big difference.
-
Outfoxed by opposition playing 3 at the back.
-
Taylor's been rubbish, again. Too many moves breaking down when it gets in the middle too. Perez probably should be playing behind Riviere, for this. Abeid's been alright but needs a stronger partner alongside him than Colback, who seems a bit weak and has let runners go a fair bit.
-
Colback's a bit all over the place with his positioning.
-
Great strike.
-
Interesting side. Really looking forward to seeing Cabella play.
-
We still desperately need a striker and centre half. Another winger would be pretty massive too, considering Hatem. We've done OK, I think we've bought some decent players and there's actually a potentially more balanced team emerging than we've had for some time. We just need to add some quality in the right places and we've got 8th place to look forward to.
-
Perez, along with Aaron, really looks like he might have something. I hope he doesn't rot away in 'development' for a year, would be the worst thing we could do.

According to Ryder, it does appear there were two Newcastle fans on board. Horrible. Rest in peace.

Man, the club's social media marketing is so unbelievably backward. So many great things they could tap in to and they go on like that

The co-commentator sounds like he's picked out from under a bridge.

Cisse and Gouffran would be decent back-ups. We're in need of someone that has real quality, though, and another back up. Despite what some journos are saying i cant see another signing on top of the expected Rivierre. Maybe we are working on a loan deal for someone as well? They've probably put all their eggs in one basket and hope Remy comes back, or something daft like that. We need somebody that's going to cost at least 10 million so it's highly likely it won't happen.

de Jong's an interesting one, I think he's going to be a good fit for the league. He doesn't seem like he's going to provide much in the way of creativity but will make space with his movement and plays lots of interchanges and quick passes. It will be interesting, like, my gut feeling is that we'll get a good balance out of these players, even if, individually, they're not as good as the ones they've replaced.
-
If we sort out out wide then he'll do better. If Cabella's as good a passer as they say he is then Papiss will benefit from that too. We just need to quicken up our attacks for him, he's often making a move to beat the trap (due to his lack of athleticism) and we need to capitalise on that much better than we have. I think if he gets a good run in the team then he'll do alright, he needs a run of games with the right set up behind him. Not ideal, of course, but I don't see us bringing in a better striker, unfortunately.
-
Yeah. Plus, if more signings continue to come in, it's still a rubbish move from the club to not spend anything for 18 months and then bring in a crap load of players.
-
Some good work but so much more needs doing. Also, absolutely pointless bringing in a bunch of players at once, why not just build incrementally rather than not spending a penny for 18 months? Dicks.
-
Yep. Really glad they won it.

Football's greatest - where does Lionel Messi rank?

For some reason, I find him quite unlikeable now. -
I want and expect Germany to win it.
-
It's alright, everyone, we've got the vastly experienced and totally proven Remie Streete to take MYM's place.
-
We are run by total fools. Quite possibly, the dumbest move this regime has made, considering our circumstances at centre half.
