  1. I also think there must be "other" reasons because even though I think he's slow he has to be better than zoggy, carr and company in that role????

     

    Agreed. In playing terms, he HAS to be a better bet than Carr or Zog, by virtue of the fact that i) he can use his left foot to kick the ball and ii) he has played a lot of games at left back, and knows what the hell he's supposed to be doing there.

     

    There's GOT to be something behind the scenes here.

     

    On the rare occasions I've seen him play, he's looked like what I think he is, a young player coming to terms with a new league. He's done pretty well, albeit there are things to work on. How he's supposed to get used to the league without playing in it is something else I don't get.

  2. Barnes is precisely the type of player we need. Young, Hungry, Point to Prove etc. We haven't bought this type since Sir Bobby left. He'd be coming here to make an impression and actually wanting to play. Not some washed-up former superstar on the gravy train

     

    Exactly - and I can't see why we're quibbling about such a low price! Would love to see him here.

  3. I sense sarcasm!

     

    I honestly think its a good sign he's on the bench and I really hope we get him in.

     

    Not being sarcastic.

     

    Like I said though, the fact he's still included in the squad tonight could prove that it'll be extremely unlikely we'll agree a fee before tomorrow night.

     

    Could be them showing they are willing to play hard ball but not having the balls to go all the way and risk him getting injured.

     

    Has he been in the first team up to now? If he's been on the bench for the 5 games running up to tonight, this might not be the sign we're looking for!!

     

     

  4. I think the thing that's disappointing for me is that City were just as shit as us last season, but despite getting a new owner & manager in AFTER we did they seem to be playing much better football with much better players.
