The usual crap which with a decent striker would have us a long way clear by now? It got us to where we are now, im not daft and I know that, but lets face it weve been struggling lately and the weakest link in all of our matches this month has been our midfield.

Hughton's clearly been reading these forums.

Ambrose is a midfielder, Best is a striker. We need a striker more. What else you need to know? Then why didnt you say this in the first place insead of the usual " is the only thing I have to put because it clearly describes everything", I know hes a striker and we need a striker, and Id be happier if we got him instead of Best, because even as a midfield player I see him more of a goal threat and much more creative as well, Id rather have him ahead of Smith. Because with him in the side I see us being more dangerous than our usual midfield and a striker as Best leading the attack. The facepalm neatly showed you i disagreed. Now you are suggesting a Ambrose/Nolan CM i should have just used one here as well to save the bother of replying tbh Where on earth did I suggest a Ambrose/Nolan midfield Id be content with, Routledge - Guthrie - Ambrose - Jonas Lovenkrands - Amoebi rather than the usual crap, with Best in the side to compete for a place.

I see him more of a goal threat from midfield than Best as a striker in the CCC and PL.

Would f***ing love it. Certainly better than Best. f***ing hell. You lot are fucking arrogant as fuck at times, give me your point of view then.

He has no media hype like our 'very good players' such as Nolan, Smith and Butt.

Would f***ing love it. Certainly better than Best.

Peter Beardsley scored 9 goals in 59 England appearance. Andy Carroll's England record is clearly better. Therefore, his clearly much better than Beardsley. Alan Shearer scored 23 goals in 118 appearances at Southampton. Therefore, Any Carroll and Shearer are almost identically talented. [/Ronaldo] Please think about what you say. If you know f*** all about football then that is fair enough but please stop pretending you do. Carroll is no Shearer, how can there be any comparison and I know thats the point your trying to bring up but Best is a striker who has scored more than Carroll this season in an inferior team, we cant deny that.

This.

Aye but he put his bairn in a scum kit. There is no way on earth any sane parent would do that, and seeing as the kid was tiny I am sure the mackems wouldn't have noticed if the bairn just had an outfit from Next on. Why put a bloody scum kit on a kid? Social Services should have been involved So what, he didnt score a clear open chance on purpose, otherwise the mackems wouldnt shut the fuck up on doing the double.

To be honest, I dont mind him, he blatantly still loves us, the way he blatantly fluffed that open goal against us last season at SJP.

Loven Amoebi

"Hard place to come........." "Made us work for it............" "This group of lads..........." "Would've taken a point beforehand............" + "If there was one side that was going to win it..........."

He's scared of them. Agreed, its the only reason I see him sticking with them, anyone with half a brain knows its about time they should be dropped by now.

If you ask me, he is delivering and playing out of his position, I mean hes got 9 assists or so this season and two goals of his own, but the fact that he has nobody in central midfield to actually help him out is the worrying thing.

The only reason he hasnt dropped Nolan is because hes our top scorer, but fair enough, hes been utter dogshit for a while now, Smith offers nothing in attack and Butt just offers nothing at all, we need a CREATIVE MIDFIELDER and a STRIKER to accompany Lovenkrands badly.

I've met him once, was kind enough to take a picture with me. Heh.

Because we've only got Kadar, Colo and Williamson at CB? There's no reason why he couldn't bring in both. We can shift Kadar to RB, I know its not his position, but Fitz Hall isnt exactly setting the world alight at his original position at CB never mind RB. I very much doubt Ashley would sanction deals for both.

What I want to understand today is: 1) Why did he start Butt 2) Why did Lovenkrands not play at all 3) Why did he not bring in a central creative midfielder instead of Fitz Hall 4) Why does he persist on playing 4-4-1-1 and 4-5-1, teams have found us out with that system, its always when we switch to 4-4-2 were at our most dangerous, but he does it too late. 5) Why did Jonas not even get 10-15 minutes under his belt today 6) Why does he insist of starting Smith/Butt ahead of Guthrie in central midfield, and in todays case, BOTH of them.

Harper 7 - Good saves today Taylor 5.5 - Cant pass at all, his crossing is hit and miss. Williamson 8 - Solid, MOTM for me. Colo 8 - Same as Williamson Van Aaholt 6.5 - Huffed and Puffed, has a stinging cross on him and a good shot as well. Routledge 6 - Should have passed that ball back to Carroll, he shot with an impossible angle. Butt 1 - Fuck off man. Smith 5 - Alright, he offers nothing, nothing at all, only good defensively. Guthrie 6 - Play him in the middle, or you might as well not play him. Nolan 4.5 - Invisible, tired and unfit. Carroll 5 - Won headers, but apart from that was poor. Cannot play up on his own. Ranger 5 - His shooting and finishing is VERY hit and miss, I wouldnt bet on him scoring some of the easiest chances. Pancake 6 - Better than Smith when he came on.

Well, it does, we've proven that. But not by doing it like we did today. Just ridiculous. We looked good in the last 15 minutes when we switched to 4-4-2, Routledge and Jonas on the wings, Lovenkrands and Amoebi/Ranger in attack is what we need to start doing.... I have no clue who to put in central midfield, their all plonkers.

Stop playing 4-5-1, IT DOES NOT WORK.
