I'm more surprised Hughton acknowledged he's aware of Troisi

Good to hear, I know he was the leader at Montpelier, but seems to be much quieter/reserved on the pitch from my view on television. I think he'll be fine once he keeps playing consistently, especially next to Colo. More movement while he's on the ball would help too, there were several times he looked up and had nothing which resulted in turnovers. Still young, very promising.

Basically it comes down to coaching at the youth level; in academies, in schools or clubs, and in the youth national team setup. Your ex-player pundits can say all they want about restricting foreign talent from coming in at youth or the top level but it's about accountability from the people at the top of the FA. They have to create a training method that is used from the beginning and they have make sure they're producing enough studied youth coaches every year. It's not about Premier League teams forcibly playing English players when they're not good enough for the good of the national team, or about not letting foreign kids coming over to train, it's not like a few signings from Europe and the English prospects are suddenly just ignored. If there's one thing about the English press and the cunts that run the FA is that there's always someone/something else to blame, the Premier League in this instance, when it is no one's fault buy their own.

They have a soft back four, shit away from home, backup keeper, and on the back of a midweek extra time game. Absolutely no excuses here, we should comfortably beat them. Of course we won't though.

Probably best for us Stevenage go out Onto Barca/Atletico

The idea of a home cup tie is so strange to me. Never played Leeds since I've been following, will be interesting.

That's a surprise

Improvement on his end product and he'll have a decent Premier League career I'm sure. Still has a lot to work on besides that too, his touch at time today was horrid. Still I always have confidence in him beating his man.

Strong in the air, him and Dummett got cut threw a few times though.

It's a shame the Ameobi novelty has worn off, but can't fault their effort and love for the club and all that. Pardew still shit.

Even that felt fucking blunt. Such a dire state of the club.

Nice to have both Marveaux and Ben Arfa in positions they've hardly excelled at before.

Just ate that clump of resen when taking a hit, going to take me a while to get over my prejudice against resen now.

Ben Arfa to come and get hurt

Sylvain

Our fullbacks just hoy it forward right away Never results in anything.

Sam trying to revolutionize scouting by watching teams after he's played them.

Sammy was pissed there

Digging some resen out of my pipe while watching this. Saw a huge clump and went to get it before it suddenly disappeared, spent half an hour trying to relocate it in the pipe but it's nowhere. Totally mystified. It's been a good half.

anyone? Someone aid yes in the pre-match thread, although Pardew/the club haven't specified.

Joe Hart-esque from Elliot

That Other Guy not getting any looks in

Injured right now

Eriksen would be perfect for Spurs, they're crying out for a more creative player in front of whoever they put at CM.
