  1. I don't mind Sunderland fans to be honest. The ones from round mine are all decent lads, hold a really strong hate of anything Newcastle related like. I do agree with hating mackems though.  Theyre a hideous breed. The accent is absolutely horrendous.

     

    Has to be the worst in Britain, ahead of the Brummie accent. Rancid.

  2. Three signings is simply not good enough, as good as the new players allegedly are.

     

    It's no surprise, though. From an attacking point of view, the numbers are there; Cabella, Sissoko, Aarons, Obertan, Gouffran, Perez? Plenty of options so they're probably not going to sanction any more additions in that area - regardless of how gash/unsuited/unproven those options are. Another season of square pegs will ensue if we're not buying a winger.

     

    Defensively the squad is a joke but again, there's numbers, regardless of how gash/unsuited/unproven those options are.

     

    If we're signing any more then players are going to have to leave. Lighten the roster.

     

     

    GK: Krul, Elliot, Alnwick, Woodman - no room

     

    RB: Janmaat - room for one

    CB: Mbemba, Colo, Taylor, Williamson, Lascelles, Good, Satka - no room

    LB: Haidara, Dummett - no room

     

    W: Sissoko, Cabella, Aarons, Obertan, Gouffran - no room

    CM: Wijnaldum, De Jong, Colback, Anita, Tiote, Abeid, Vuckic - no room

     

    ST: Cisse, Mitrovic, Perez, Riviere - possibly room for one more?

     

     

    If we were an outfit that took our football seriously, there'd be absolutely f*** all to prevent us from signing more players. The squad is full of absolute guff.

     

    Sissoko better be nowhere near the wing.

  3. MYM was shifted to right back as soon as Coloccini was fit, and then to the bench when Debuchy was back despite performing well. I have absolutely no doubt that under a different manager he would have become a very good PL centre half.

     

    Also, I seem to remember an away Europa league game when they were together (Colo and MYM) and they were fine. It definitely would not have worked long term but they definitely were not terrible in every game they played together by all means. There was probably only a handful.

    When will Crystal Palace fans start to resent Alan Pardew: they won't but cracks will show after Xmas

    How many goals will Balotelli score this season: 8

    How will De Jong get injured this season: collapsed kidney

  5. I think McClaren will put Sissoko wide, for some reason. Wijnaldum and Colback/Tiote :anguish: in the middle, with de Jong ahead. Leaving Cabella, Aarons & Perez to fight it out for left wing. If we sign Mitrovic, I'd still be starting Cisse ahead of him.

     

    Really, really hope not. Looking forward to watching Sissoko under proper management.

  6. Would love us to have a player who would grab the game by the scruff of it's neck, proper old fashioned captain like Keane or even Gerrard. Sissoko has the physique to be an absolute monster but he is a proper pansy. Currently Janmaat most likely, although it will be Coloccini I would wager.

     

    Nolan was a mint captain. You want a captain who will be in the refs lug all game.

     

    PS need this avatar changed ASAP

  7. What's the big deal with having options in the squad like? I realise it isn't a priority but the more talent, the better really. Obviously CM is not a priority but competition is healthy, especially when you are improving the squad with better players. 

     

    That and it will give everyone a lift, including the players.
