I reckon Pardew should persist with Obertan for now. The lad needs a consistent run of games as he adjusts to his new teammates, and gets to play consecutive matches, something he hasn't done for a couple of years now. If he can turn on the style and get into good form, he could be a frightening attacking prospect.

Knock on fucking wood lads! Think the reason he was unhurt is that Bardsley's left leg slowed his momentum down going into the tackle, and softened the impact enough to leave wor Colo unharmed.
What a fucking legend! My favorite player at the club at the moment.

Apparently the Arsenal board are forcing his hand to make a marquee signing.
While I do respect his single-mindedness, he's failed to deliver where it matters - results. Prissy football can only get you so far. Unless the Arsenal board are happy making huge profits on the youngsters they bring through, and want nowt more from him.

Isn't Andre Ayew rumoured to be leaving OM, or is that largely just media speculation? I heard he had a release fee clause that might attract a few clubs across Europe.
Was one of the best performers at the last world cup. Wish we'd gone in for him instead of chasing N'Zogbia at the time.

They were beaten at Wolves today, so we should do this lot. Mark Hughes is a dick.
Godd job he's not their manager then
no shit - dunno how that came out -
Think Wenger and Arsenal should sever ties tbh. He's a brilliant manager, but he's no Ferguson. And personally I'm sick of the sight of him.

Seriously though, as badly as we need a striker, do we really want this stroppy number in our squad? I really can't stomach whinging twats of that ilk. Is he really THE striker to fill the void? Do we want him THAT badly? So many questions that nee f***er has answers to. If this was Sturridge, then I'd pay over the odds and disregard the behaviour. Seeing as he's an unknown quantity I'm not too sure #panicbuyftw
Just being discussed in the other thread, our most successful side in recent times had some proper bell ends like Dyer and Bellamy. First we need to get some good players in then it's Pardew's job to manage them.
Well yes, but we also had SBR managing that rat pack.

Don't talk s*** about Maiga, he'll drop his cock on your foot so you break your metarsal and ankle.
Sorry mate. Hadn't realized he was your guy.

Ben Arfa...
Yes but with HBA we knew the sort of player we'd be getting in the sense that he's a French international, who'd been on the scene for a few years and came with a big reputation. This guy, not so much. Could turn out to be a world beater, and hoy his toys out when Dogleash comes knocking next year. Or he could just be turboshit, with an attitude.

Imagine Souness man management with all of our snail eaters
You've got a poofs name. In goal!
probably get chucked in the reserves for lessons on "properness" with Deano Saunders
-
Good first half from Pieters. Should be said though, against a pretty rubbish team. Got beaten on pace one time by Verhoek, but quite decent going forward. Got in a couple of good crosses, and hit with every pass.
Yup he's been half decent. Tends to get stuck in, and a lot of the play builds up through him, the way we did with Enrique.

Starts at LB for PSV away to Den Haag. Match kicking off now.

What a fantastic result!!
Some good signs in that game, and some not so good!
Obviously we lack a serious goal threat, but I'm hoping, as everyone is, that with the return of Ben Arfa and a new striker in place, we'll threaten teams more. Our lack of goalscoring chances in the first 2 games is alarming! Would like to see more of Best and Ba, especially the former, as he seems to have a knack of being at the right place at the right time, and is a solid finisher.
The positives, apart from having twatted the mackems, are in defence where I thought we were very solid. Our midfield and Tiote in particular didn't have the best day out. Special mention to Cabaye though for leading by example, closing down the scum defenders, and never stopped running! Wish we could have seen more of that from the anonymous Obertan and Ameobi.
Tim Krul is developing into a top class goalkeeper! Not sure if it was Souness who was responsible for bringing him to the club - but credit where it's due.
Top marks all round for a memorable win
-
Wanted him taken off at 0-0, with Ba and Best brought on, as he provided zero goal threat apart from that corner. Once Ryan Taylor's beauty flew in, I wanted him to stay on to help protect the lead. His experience was vital in doing so.
-
Glad we've finally worked our way down the french goalscoring charts to find someone who'll come before it got to Lilian Laslandes.

This is it with me and this forum like, people are just a bunch of whinging, negative bastards no matter what, sucking the joy out of coming on here and supporting the club.
If people can't see this is just our new Perez, Karelse & Caig type keeper, basically a senior goalkeeper on the books in case there's an injury to Harper or Krul who can step up to the bench, they want shot tbh. Said a few hours ago I hoped any keeper we signed was a random back-up keeper rather than someone like Green who'd have been signed to be number 1, and here it is.
But f*** me, this thread has summed up the forum for me, just f*** off.
You fuck off tbh. Can't be talking too much sense around here
No need for you to pay any mind to the numpties man. People overreact out of boredom and stupidity. Let it go.
-
If we've let Forster go out on loan, and if Harper's on his way out of the club, then we've probably found a way to reduce the wage bill (Harper can't be on peanuts after 15 odd years' service), to give us more room to manoever with the new signings #clutchingatfuckingstrawsman

Got it this week. Wears far far better than I imagined, and looks a lot better than what's been made out on here

Chelsea have bid 27m + Kalou + Benayoun for Luka.
Good offer. 27m+ 7m + 4m imo.
Better deal than Arsenal got for Cesc.
They'll get desperate soon and throw Sturridge in the deal.
No they wont
Ok care to make a bet that Sturridge will be somehow be thrown in the deal before the end of the window (not saying we'd accept but that a bid involving him would be made)?
So in your opinion, Modric = 27m + Kalou + Benayoun + Sturridge?
Wow you read my post and came to the conclusion i was saying that? amazing.
Well maybe if your post was clearer without all this "spurs itk's circle of mystical trust" malarky, you'd get a relevant response to the point you were making.
Wtf are you talking about? have a go at me when there's a reason to but don't spout bollocks about "itk malarky" when you're simply unable to read a post properly.
Me saying that a deal involving Sturridge will be made before the window closes means modric= sturridge + Benayoun + Kalou.......give over man.
So if your post isn't based on any itk info, what is it based on that you're willing to put a bet on?
Gut feeling and i'm willing to put a wager on it (only with that human centipede Dresden). You assumed i was basing it on itk..and you assumed wrong so i accept your apology and lets just move on.
yeah sorry I even asked
