Frazzle

They did, see my last post.

Unlike Barca games where the passing is done around the midfield Swansea's today was in front of our midfield most of the time. I think the action areas were 20% for us near their goal and 24% for them, says it all.

Chris Coleman was doing his best to put a downer on that second goal like

I didn't say he should. If you're not responding to me directly, I agree.

You're right Sewelly about dropping Ba, but I'm not having the Shola knocking. His recent sub appearances have been literally world class.

Well according to rtg, and I mean 99% of them believe McClean & Sess are worth at least £20m each. Aye, seen a few saying that. Man City and Real to start a bidding war seemingly... In fairness, this is a world where Jordan Henderson cost £20m. True, but as well as being distinctly average he was also, fortunately for him (not for us), born in England.

Few journalists said only the Henderson and Bent sales make the latest Sunderland reports look half decent, unless they can do that each season I don't think their finances are that great. Dunno how much effect Carroll's sale had on ours but our wages to turnover ratio is much better I think.

I'm not desperate for Ba to be rested to be honest, we don't play for two weeks after this. Think I'd rather see us secure the game by 60 mins and bring him off (maybe asking a bit much and getting ahead of myself but so what ).

Rob Lee saying he is a cross between Cole and Tino is a fairly decent comparison.

1 goal conceded in 4 games since Colo's been out. Massive credit to Pards, Willo and Perchy.

Was Cisse mate.

Did his defensive work excellently today. Shackles off for Bolton...

I voted 12+ :banana:

But the formation works. Look at the German national side for example - I'd say Podolski is wasted on the left wing there as well. But the formation works and the team does great. That's the most important thing. It isn't about Ba's goals. It's about NUFC's goals. Sums it up perfectly.

I agree to some extent but its not like he had no money to spend (Jones, Young etc.), Pardew for me.

Why are they showing Everton chances from yesterday when they didn't even show Ba's delflected shot etc. from today?

Alonso totally ignores the Bolton fans after his goal and jogs towards the Wolves stand.

Hasn't their home form got slightly worse over the season though? They'd only conceded abour 2 in 6 hadn't they?

Arshavin. Was only £15m at most though, not over.

Needs a goal for what? He's all round play doesn't look short of confidence and the team are winning, don't see a problem personally.

As long as we're winning and playing well I don't care if his goals dry up and neither should he. He's an important part of the team still.

Wenger hasn't even paid over £15m for a player has he? Unless my mind is going blank.
