  1. Just plead guilty, attend the hearing, yes sir, sorry sir, won't happen again sir and take the rap.

     

    ..and get rid of the smile while you're doing it.

     

    :facepalm: he didn't murder a puppy with his bare hands man

     

    I'm not sure why you've reacted like that.

     

    It was very clear in the interviews on Saturday that, he was seeing the funny side of the situation as well. There is a funny side, but it's best not to present it to the Panel, that's all.

     

    He seems to be a guy who is used to charming his way out of situations. It won't work with all of the people all of the time.

     

    I understand what you're saying. But the fact that he apologized in private and in public immediately shows that he knows well the seriousness of his actions. I personally see nothing wrong in the way he has conducted himself in the aftermath, and imo it's nice to see a manager who can see the funny side of things. It's a sport with very high stakes and emotions are so charged so often that people tend to forget that there are more important things in life.

  3. Why start Harper? Its not like Krul will get tired. Some very risky looking line-ups being posted, these aren't Accrington Stanley ffs.

     

    Good for Harper to play, what if Krul gets sent off or injured in one of our next few games? We need Harper to step in, he's not as good as he was and needs to stay sharp so a game will do him good.

     

    I'd play Krul on Thursday and give Harper a game in the 2nd leg.

    think we might line up something like this, obviously depending on Shola's fitness and Marveaux not in the doghouse.

                          KRUL

    SIMPSON    WILLI      TAV  RAYLOR

          GOSLING  ANITA  MARVEAUX

            OBERTAN    SHOLA  VUCKIC

  4. I've been watching the ESPN coverage again and Frank LeBoef was giving him a hard time saying he's a "street footballer", all skill but no work ethic, Keegan said he'd only be any good in home games.  Both comments are total bollocks in my opinion.  Hatem actually did a lot of tracking back and blocking runs yesterday, and last season some of our best moves away from home came through him: WBA, Swansea & Bolton away spring to mind.

     

    How dare you criticise comments from Keegan? He never talks bollocks. He's a club legend! Are you a mackem?

     

    :-*

  5. He was a real man out there today, along with Ben Arfa. You could see he's come back into pre-season determined not to be dropped for any new recruits. The purchase of Anita could see a marked improvement in technical performance to go along with his usual work ethic, from Jonas.

     

    Was really delighted to see him fight for the shirt like a man possessed. Top class player.

  6. Like him so much, he genuinely has a screw loose! That headed back pass was amazing.

     

    Was very impressed at this genius piece of improv. Comes across as a bit dense, but that was some super fast thinking. Welcome back son!

  7. Thought he had a fairly decent game.

     

    He did. But he did back off Lennon for their goal, and you could clearly see Krul in the aftermath yelling "Tighter tighter!" in his direction. Why he won't learn this is beyond belief. Does he not watch replays of his performances?

  8. Quickly becoming a very competent player for us who doesn't seem to put a foot wrong these days, regardless of where he plays.

     

    This post is so last season man. Perch is for real :lol:
