If worse comes to worse, Dempsey can play point until Adebayor is back. It's not ideal, but he's done it for the national team at times. He needs someone to interchange with too (i.e. can't play him as a long striker).

Wow, just caught-up with this 'letter to the San Lorenzo fans' business. What the fuck man

Again, as I think Mole mentioned earlier, the "don't play Marveaux at left wing" people are ignoring the fact that, the way that we play, our outside forwards are not tasked with touchline-to-touchline, hugging the outside play. Neither Ben Arfa nor Marveaux are Aaron Lennon/Gareth Bale wingers in that sense. Marveaux, like Ben Arfa, likes to cut-in, drive to the box from a diagonal, and ends-up playing tucked behind Cisse. Which is perfectly fine, as our central midfielders often drift horizontally too. And Marveaux and Ben Arfa drifting inside allows Debuchy and Santon space to get forward on the outside. Between Marveaux, Obertan, Ferguson, Shola, etc., I'm playing Marveaux at left "wing" 10 times out of 10. Even if he's not a classic winger.

Honestly don't see Gouffran starting. He should, but I don't think he will.

"Must have Yanga-Mbiwa in the line-up, lad's fit n' ready to go..." Yanga-Mbiwa - Williamson combo problem?
-
Zero excuse for Williamson to start. Two healthy, better CBs ahead of him. Which means he's sure to start.
-
Final guess for the line-up: Krul Yanga-Mbiwa Coloccini Debuchy Santon Sissoko Anita Cabaye Marveaux Jonas Cisse

Wonga changing the colour of their logo -
I don't think we will finish in the top 10 this season, if all goes well we could be close to it but I thinker over the best we will do this season 11th-12th. Agreed. 11-12 would be best case scenario.

I'll splurge for a home kit when I'm really blown away by a design. Haven't been over the last few seasons. Or I'll just look to invest in a throw-back. -
Just as an aside, the fact that I picture that god awful cunt of a character from American Pie making the posts himself only makes Stifler's posts more irritating than they should be. Which is not to say that I always find your posts annoying Stif.

Colo, Jonas. Aye, they're really useless. Fuck me. I wasn't really emphasising on the useless part, more like the high wages and brought in before relegation part. Anyway I would say in Jonas's case, yes he's useless, whats the point in having a winger who can't cross? and by that I don't mean produce a decent cross by that I mean doesn't ever cross, he waits for Santon to overlap him or cuts inside. Jonas has been a highly valuable part of this squad for the better part of his time here. He's falling apart at the seams now, but even last season he was quite integral to the team's success.

Considering most fans (as with most people in general) have awful tastes in everything, I'm not optimistic we'd even get one decent choice. I agree that it should be the away kit that gets voted on. Let the zany fuckers have their day. -
True story. If they are relegated, they've got enough good young talent to springboard back-up, imo. Can't imagine they'd have too large an exodus either, just the veterans who aren't playing anyway (Bent, Dunne, Warnock, Ireland, N'Zogbia)

rather like that kit actually. -
It does seem that Lambert is re-building the whole squad from the ground-up. Could be fruitful in a couple years. Unfortunately at the expense of relegation this season, unless he can right the ship real quick.

God help us. It's sure to be shit in that case. -
God help us if we lose this game.

Senses the impending doom. Go get him Mikey

Absolutely this. The problem is not a 'wee' club such as Newcastle buying 5 players for 18mil. It's large clubs, like Arsenal, spending that much on a single player. And doing it several times a year. Wenger can go fuck himself.
