    Loïc Remy

    I thought he was decent but his decision-making could have been better. He still did some excellent stuff though, he's a very good footballer, best all-round striker we've had in a long time.
  2. He can go outside too, he's whipped in some lovely crosses over the last couple of games. Really never thought I'd say it but he's looking like a very useful wide man. I like the balance he and Gouffran are bringing.
  3. Really poor, if true. Colo simply doesn't deserve to be starting, we hardly missed his captaincy skills when he was out either.
  4. No animosity towards him at all. I don't think it's right to say he chased the money, I think he legitimately went there to try and win something. I can see why his way of leaving would leave a sour taste for others though.
  5. He'll go at the end of the season, we get an out of contract Pirlo on a 1 year deal. ITK.
  6. Really looking forward to seeing how Pogba develops, love his style.
  7. Question for any Wigan watchers, how's McManaman been playing this year?
  8. Spurs are so negative in possession, their players so rarely turn forwards when they get the ball. Paulinho hasn't looked really settled to me the few times I've seen him and Lamela hasn't adjusted to the physicality.
  9. Don't think so, personally. He got the ball first, then went through the man.
  10. Mackems can sod off whining about the red. Larsson should have been off vs. City, sometimes it goes your way and others it doesn't.
  11. From his comments after the game, didn't seem like he wanted us to sit back at all.
  12. Heard Cabaye was immense. Pleased they got through. Good news for us, not that they'd suddenly stop performing but it just adds that extra bit of motivation.
  13. Why is it so certain that he'll play the same team? He switched it up after beating Cardiff.
  14. Deary me That boy is an utter fool. I have no idea why he thought it would be good to put that in the public domain, although, judging by some of his other tweets, this isn't really surprising.
  15. I'm not suggesting an alternative that is, I'm saying that hanging on for dear life isn't. I'm suggesting that there's one sure fire way to do it, I'm suggesting that there's a better way of doing it than we are now. First half against Spurs was a very good way to do it, and a way that I thought would be a good idea after seeing them recently. Second half we hung on for dear life and defended our lead. Why? What happens at half time? I know it has been a consistent theme, mainly over the last year or so, but I thought in yesterday's case, we just got pegged back and faded as it went on. To be fair to Pardew, he said afterwards that we were deeper than he would have liked.
  16. I know, I'm just saying I can't think of too many times he's had a run there, the Everton games are the only ones that spring to mind for me. I do think his best position is on the right but I think a spell on the left would improve him, I think he needs to add more variety to his game and not always being able to cut in would help that.
  17. You better start buying it because he can't..... he's proved it time and time again. I can't think of too many times that he's properly played there. His first appearance for us springs to mind, he was pretty damn good then.
  18. I think he can play on the right, I just think he needs a spell on a side where he can't cut in as much. I think it'd make him a better player.
  19. I'd start trying him on the left, to be honest. I don't buy it that he can't play there, a lad as talented as him can manage, he just needs to adapt and use his brain more than he does on the right.
  20. The team spirit on show was great. It's really important to have that. Great performance, sometimes we're just going to have to do a defensive job.
  21. Snodgrass looks homeless Really like Fer, lovely finish.
  22. We've only got 1 long term centre half at the club and that's MYM. We should be getting one in January and another one next summer, at least. I think Williamson's a decent short-term option but he should be gone by next the beginning of next season.
