Not saying it would but it'd be hard to keep Cisse happy playing on the right wing. Never mind that he is ineffective there and can't play as part of a front two. Eventually one had to go imo

Cisse is the better player and one of Ba or Cisse had to go. Why are people so appalled? I would be far more annoyed had Ba signed a new contract and Cisse shipped out.

Good post

My guess is he will do just as well as he has ever done when playing his natural role in the team.

So people actually want a direct replacement for Ba... Even though we have one in Cisse? We need a remi type player who can float around in a front 3,not another Ba.

Andy Carroll much I'd we get someone like remi in i'd feel pretty confident cisse will produce the goods.

How are those players getting on now

He struggles with the added attacking responsibility when Cabaye is out.

I like the lad a lot but he has a tendency to give a really sloppy pass away in our half. No more so than tiote

To be fair his decision making is mainly only a problem in the final third. His distribution in front of the back four is very good considering his age.

Surely we have seen financial progression under this lot? If nothing else....

OK, name them. Me, can't stand the bloke. Thought he was a crap manager when he arrived, thought he was crap manager last season, think he's a crap manager now. I don't do knee jerk. Did you, Sir, remain flaccid when we played like a dream at the Hawthorns, or shrugged and emitted a "flukey win, that" when we beat Man U, or did you by any chance lay there counting till ten in a missionary position as he took us to our first 5th place finish in years thinking, "oh he'll be done soon enough?" I ask because I don't know how you have to be knee-jerk to give credit where it's due. One can be sans any kind of jerking, knee or otherwise, simply by reacting as a human being to what's being put in front of you. He was hardly a crap manager last season, and to say otherwise is using hindsight to simply back your own opinion on him. I never rated him highly when he arrived either, but I'm putting my fingers where the keyboard is and saying after last season, I have at least some amount of faith in him, and that he may just turn this around, the silver-haired fox. I could be wrong, but adults make choices and take stances where they could possibly turn out to be wrong, but they do so based on evidence (for me that is evidence of last season, not this season -- just to clarify).

I dunno man he's just average. West Brom are flying and who do they play at RB? Billy Jones I think. He's hardly much, if at all better than Simpson.

These last few pages are like an insight into how Sir Bobby was sacked. Fucking deplorable

:lol: I'm sorry, but this didn't get nearly enough love.
