Not saying he has or is, but I don't believe Harewood has anyhting to offer anymore. Know your gonna hate this but he seems like he could'nt trap a bag of cement and competes in the air like one too. Limited as he is even Carroll can just about manage the basics. I think Ranger would create more than either anyway and should be first name on the team sheet atm, whoever plays should have a better chance of scoring if he was imo.

Wouldn't grumble too much at that. Seems a definite improvement. What would you base picking Taylor on the wing for? Crossing ability?

Animal

We either play long ball because our midfield can't create or because our Chris 'Barack' Houghton knows no better. Probably not mutually exclusive. I'd like to see what Ranger would be able to do with either Lovenkrands or Carroll again purely because Harewood is about as much use as a fart in a spacesuit

From what i've seen of Lua Lua he seem far and away our paciest, attacking minded player. I thought he was one of the better of the kids alongside Ranger in the Peterborough game and at a time when we are distinctly lacking these qualities should be given regular starts, its the the only way these players will develop and conrtibute to us getting promoted. Lua Lua in particular can get past a man and created an opening that should've have resulted in a stonewall penalty in that game. I don't subscribe to this 'they'll have their time' mentality. He deserves a shot

This

I honestly hope so Be mint if my song did like albeit a bit gay and terrible

Oh and it'll be 1-0. just. Ranger finally saves our bacon, 40 yard header. I have spoken

Marlon Harewood? and I know the squad is thinner than the broth at a S***derland soup kitchen but I wouldn't let Geremi anywhere near it

Is being Sh1ite worse than being s****? Much worse. Even more so than being censored (not a criticism in the least :razz):

Zurab: Sh1te, Harewood: Sh1te, Butt: Sh1te, Geremi: Sh1te, Lovenkrands: Sh1ite, Jonas: can't be arsed ergo sh1te Barton: 'I'm a great player' but no-one understands me. Sh1te I could go on but the good:gash ratio isnt looking too good as it is, is it?

Well...its getting to the stage we're struggling against just as many sides as we've beaten and think we've rode our luck a bit given the threadbare squad. I'll agree we have players who are far and away superior to the general quality of this league but to say we have a team good enough and with enough to be truly sucessful in this league is optimisic...Hope i'm wrong pal. i really do. I do also realise they can play so much better than last night

Upping your game and plenty of huff and puff only get you so far. I think its pretty clear that Nolan has been a shadow of the player he once was at Bolton. Nolan aside, the quality in midfield i still abysmal. Butt? Past it. Smith? Has played well in spells but only really good for kicking people. Geremi. Terrible. Barton? Least said about him the better. Its endemic of the squad. Quality and depth has lacked and thats part of the reason why we are where we are now

Nolan is clearly past it and as a result a poorer footballer. The same with Nicky Butt. I agree things at mangement and board level affect things to a large degree. But to deny the fact we have players in midfield who are woeful seems a tad optimistic. The hat trick in question happened in a game against arguably the poorest side in the league. Fielding past it players such as Geremi, Butt, Nolan and Harewood means a distinct lack of quality is present imo.

You can judge Harewood on what he was like 3/4 years ago, I'll judge him on what he's like now. Rubbish. I'll do the same for Shola - on the evidence of what we've seen of him for NUFC this season, he'll be more dangerous than Harewood and Ranger. I don't think I'm being too outrageous in suggesting so? Agree with both points. Not seen anything of harewood to convince me he's anything other than terrible. Shola was indeed shite for his hat-trick but hopefully provide more goals when he's fit. I really think Ranger needs to start ahead of Harewood as his touch and aerial presence (albeit often flawed) is far superior to anyhthing Harewood has to offer

1-0. Just can't see us scoring tho tbh at the minute

This

Been very poor today. Because everyone hes another past it never was who just runs around like an idiot in every game

Geremi

Harewood is shite always has been. Our midfield has been shite for a long time and we've no options but resort to playing long ball shite. Severely riding our luck in this league
