You'd hope so but Hughton comes out with bollocks about playing "A lot of games" and the need to "freshen it up" so he'll probably 'rest' rotate the strikers. It's funny how the likes on Enrique, Colo, Jonas, S.Taylor, etc don't get rested when fit. It should be, if you score you stay in the team until you don't score. To be fair, until recently that hasn't really been possible. Probably why these kind of players are starting to pick up injuries too thinking about it.

[move]HAHAHAH f*** THIS LEAGUE!![/move]

To be fair he's not the only one who slates the fuck out of Carroll. Regardless of tonight, a lot of his performances have been a waste of space. I just hope he keeps performances like this up! Hah!

Haha fuck off, big AC!!

Having a medical

Does it matter?

Enrique is out for at least 3 weeks, so about 5 games, and van Aanholt is here on a month long loan. It's a good move to be fair, since it sustains what little depth we have in that position. I'm pretty sure Kadar is primarily a centre back before a left back aswell.. may be wrong on that though.

And if he gets injured?

Fuck off, what they're doing is illegal. These players get paid between 5 and 6 figure incomes and if they're that stupid to take the stuff in the first place then they deserve the punishment they receive.

Probably because they are aprem club and their projected earnings should they stay in prem would be enough to pay ff the debt in the future. If they go down they'll instantly go into admin. That makes sense I guess, cheers.

I'm not the most financially knowledgeable person on here, so can someone explain to me in the easiest way possible how Portsmouth have not ended up in administration? If the likes of Palace have surely Pompey should aswell...?

Fucking hell, SSN have gone mental for Moses.

Going to Stoke apparently.

Yep

Carroll is in there to distract the defence while the midfield pass the ball around him and get him as little time on the ball to be trapped under his feet as humanly possible. It's all part of the plan.

Long ball with those players? Well since these players would be better at playing it on the deck it's hardly relevant. Erm, that's why it's relevant. We play long ball now because the majority of the team don't have the legs to push forward, but the fact that Hughton seems to be targeting fast & pacey players must surely suggest to you that he'd prefer to see a passing game? I'm glad we've been playing route 1 up to this point in the season, if we'd have tried to play liquid football with our current midfield it could have been disastrous. If he wanted, Hughton could have easily gone for lumbering anti-footballers that get points on the table but these current signings point towards a better style of football. All supposition though at this stage.

Are we playing 4-3-3 now?

What's the betting it's long term and that we don't know the full extent of it until after the window closes so no replacement can be bought ? Saying that can we still loan players after January ? Yeah, til March.

If he hadn't of gotten that pointless red card against Liverpool we probably wouldn't have been relegated last season with him in the middle.

Joey will always be rushed back and injured again within 5 games or so. He's shown glimpses of his potential here, but I wouldn't say he's looked anywhere near as good as he did at Man City at times.

What prompted the change? Probably alcohol.

Trouble with this of course is that Smith is way below the required standard for a consistent premiership midfielder. Makes it even more worrying how much Butt got selected last season.

I'm slapping 20 on it then. Its means more when there's money on it.

So skirge, you willing to go on record about this and claim to be... ITK?! Don't be pulling any of those weak ass marley excuses out the bag either if it goes tits up.
