Got to admit I'm sad to see him go.
Now lets get Remi in.
-
Has to be Benny - probably the most gifted player I've seen wear the black and white shirt.
I'd throw Tiote onto that list - yes he's lost his way slightly but his 1st season was utter class.
-
Didn't seem in the dark just didn't want to speak about it.
-
Gutted he's leaving like.
Need to make sure we bring in Remy and Pardew has no excuses not to play 4-3-3.
I've a feeling if he does go no replacement will be brought in - hence Shola not being allowed to go to ACN.
-
Can't just rely on him - we need another striker.
-
This is the way I look at it...
Demba is the best finisher we have at the club. Do I want him to go? No chance.
BUT Cisse and Demba cannot play together which everyone knows. So IF and it's a big IF Ashley gets his cheque book out and brings in a player who can compliment Cisse then it won't be all doom and gloom if we loose Ba. For me though I'm more concerned about us not bring in a couple of defenders than Ba leaving. It's no use scoring goals if we're letting is 11 goals in two games. Defense is the key this window.

Pardew doesn't sound happy..

Come on Alan - get a couple of defenders in.
-
Getting better with each game.
-
We've had the performances to be about 6-7 points better off since Stoke away imo. The signs are there since then that things will improve.
For sure.
What got us results last year was a sound defense. Things are not going to improve till we get a decent CB - game after game we're letting in sloppy goals.
-
Praying its not too serious. f*** Valencia. Disgusting challenge.
Cannot believe it wasn't even a card. No wait I can.
-
Defence were like statues for that last goal. Williamson should have cleared that ball.
-
Typical Man U - lucky lucky side.
-
Goals, as if.
If we make chances for the forwards we'll get goals, and we'll have Ben Arfa back to add a spark.
He needs to be playing more up field. So wasted wide on the wing.
-
We gave him a chance, he took it, and fully deserved the credit we gave him for it. Unfortunately a new set of challenges have presented themselves and it looks like he doesn't have the answers.
Pardew has to take his share of the blame that's for sure. Some of his tactics or lack of have cost us this season. But that aside, it is the lack of investment that has really cost us. Williamson has been such a weak link in our defense and I am convinced if we'd sign a CB this season he barely would have stepped foot in the 1st 11 and we would have won more games than we've lost.
-
As much as it pains me to say Pardew is probably better than any other cheap alternative that MA would bring in.

Our new purple player?
Better than Williamson.
Is there a worst Center half than Williamson in the Premiership? I can't think of one. I'd rather Shola played at CB at least he'd win a header.
-
Some money to spend would be nice.
We just need a Billionaire owner.........oh wait.....
-
Unsurprised
Nope nor I.
-
I'd have Perch ahead of him 60% of the time, 100% of the time.
Agreed.

-
Ba and Cisse looked lost in 442 - seem to be v.similar players fighting for the same type of balls.
-
Thought it was LB he's played at but looked good at RB. Played well especially when he switched to RB.
-
Thought he was excellent today...
Ditto.
-
Was v.impressed with him today. Played well.
Demba Ba (now retired)

Indeed - from what I've read he's a popular player in the dressing room. Just need to bring in a quality replacement - someone who can compliment Cisse.
