  1. Seems a bit weird ordering them in straight after a game though.
  2. What a bunch of athletes we've got then. Bet Jose didn't have any, he'd have just been having his salad and protein shakes
  3. Harte is shit. Amazing goalscoring record for a fullback though
  4. God damn it how amazing would it be if Boro were turboshit this season.

    The thing is, even if he comes in, struggles to adapts and doesn't show his full ability - he'll still probably be better than most of the team.

    Mate in 08/09 Guthrie was what 20/21 and in his first season with us so I think its bit unfair judging him on that Nolan was an experienced pro brought in to steady the ship, Guthrie was a young lad thrown in at the deep end from the moment the ship started sinking. I think acceptances should be made moreso for Guthrie than Nolan.
  7. I think that's because if a player gets lots of appearences for the U21s they're not good enough to make the step up. The best ones nearly always breakthrough to the full squad early and hence aren't capped by the U21s up until they're 22/23. For example there is a lot of talk that Wilshere has been left out of the U21s because Capello wants him for the full team, and he's only what, 18?
  8. The strikers for their upcoming game are Carroll, Welbeck and Sturridge. So not really, he's the only out and out CF there.
  9. It was the same end of last season, he only turned up for the cup games.
  10. Fuck that. By the way, what a little runt that Kenny Miller looks like. He's worse than Bellamy in the snidey punchable cunt stakes. I'd hate to see us sign him purely for this, regardless of his (lack of) footballing ability.
  11. They definitely weren't like. They did more with what they had and were solid at the back but we looked a much more competent footballing side. Long time since I've been able to say that

    I don't remember Guthrie ever being that bad in the Prem, where as I remember Nolan being a total disaster for his first 5 months here.
  13. God damn it I'd love it if we were shipping him off somewhere. Some remote island somewhere would do.

    Same goes for Guthrie, I think. Neither has anything near the athleticism needed at this level. Possibly, we'll see. I still have more faith in Guthrie than I do Nolan.
  15. Sulejmani would have been good for the 'Ben Arfa/Nolan role'. Christ, can't believe that's what I'm referring it as

    Aye, i think that situation is almost certainly the reality.
  17. No KPB for Pompey today. Not that I'm surprised like, he's probably trying his hardest to find a new club as we speak.
  18. Aye. They're similar to us but the other way round. Them minus them 2 from Zog/Figueroa/Rodallega and they're pretty much down, in the same way if we add a couple we'd have much greater chance of staying up.

    I disagree. I think Nolan and Barton could work, with Nolan's willingness to get into positions. The key for me is replacing him as the second striker. If it means him playing in midfield I still think it would improve us. Hawer man, the Nolan thing is delusional. I thought we played our best possession football in midfield with Guthrie and Barton today that i've seen us in a long time. Nolan should be an impact player at most.
  20. Was saying that all last season. Eye for goal and brilliant delivery. Suprised somebody hasn't gone for him. Wigan or someone. He's only 20 aswell.
  21. Gylfi Sigurdsson would be a great signing for us imo.
  22. Shit, I clicked the wrong one. I was meant to put staying up! I'm pretty split though. With 2/3 players in the right positions I'd be 100% confident of staying up. At the current state I'm worried.

    How? Nolan in central midfield makes us even more dogshit.
