Guthrie would be good behind the striker, I think. He likes to get on the ball and make things happen

If we'd have had him instead of Obertan last night I'm sure we'd have kept hold of it a lot better. Mind you, we could've put any fucker in there and we'd have held onto the ball better. Looking forward to him coming back and showing what he can do. really. We haven't seen enough of him.

I've no doubt he'll be the right sided Gareth Bale in a couple of years

He's a total no mark of a human being

He played badly tonight, but he's been a good player over the course of the season. littlelunchbox is being a bit of a mong

Think that Ameobi picture a few posts above could easily be a 'you don't say' meme

nahh, he knows what he's doing. naah

Quite liked our shape tonight in the first half really, and against some of the lesser teams it'd have worked even better. Just need Ba where Obertan was and Cissé up front

Come on Guthrie!

In fairness to Simpson, I think he's had his best game for us tonight. Been excellent, really. Actually passed it a couple of times

Guthrie needs to come. For Ba or Cabaye. Need to keep the ball somehow

Williamson plays a pass to feet and we actually put more than 2 passes together and get the ball in the box

Tioté's been mint. Our best player along with Colo so far today

Who exactly was Ben Arfa meant to pass it to? We have no movement

TICKING TIME BOMB!

Think it's safe to say Santon is a right back, not a left back

Quite looking forward to this. Not too hopeful about the result, but I'm expecting HBA to start especially with Taylor absent. Hopefully he isn't made a scapegoat if we lose badly, as it would've been on the cards regardless.

Ryan Taylor ‏ @TaylorR1984 Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Absolutely gutted to be missing tonights game. I'll let you know what the extent of my injury is after my scan tomorrow. Such bad luck...

Can play wide according to FM, like. His attributes on it also seem to suggest he's a winger rather than a central midfielder

What the fuck were we doing to draw against Wolves at home?

Yeah, Le Tis did it a couple of times (including Liverpool instead of us). I was seething

Sell Tioté for £15m, get Diamé on a free. Not bad

He'll be 23 in August, so he'll be for the first team. If Guthrie and Tioté are off then we will need players in midfield. This guy, Mark Davies and Corgnet would probably do

From another forum: "Good deal for you lot if it's a free as mentioned. He's very decent player for Reims. Excellent passing ability but he's unlikely to rack up the goals or assists. More of a holding the ball and releasing for another e.g Cabaye to do tricks with it. Think Arteta."

Can't say I'm overly pleased he'll be here that long, really. Decent squad player for now and next season maybe, but I'd have rather have just let his contract run out next year and see where we're at then. I know he can play multiple positions, but by the end of next season you'd like to think we'll be in a position where we can have better quality squad players and won't really need him.
