  1. We have a hat a bunch of shit names and a blind fold
  2. Nah! Lennon isn't a kick and chase guy man. That's Theo. Theo struggles to keep control dribbling at pace. He usually is best when he knocks it forward and then gets there quicker than the defender. Lennon dribbles with the ball at pace really well, as does Sterling. Absolute nonsense, for starters Walcott's best attribute is his off the ball movement to get into finishing positions he hardly dribbles at all. Lennon can only dribble in straight lines and definitely is nowhere near Walcott general game and he cannot take a man on in closed space. Not many orthodox wingers can't dribble in small spaces when being double marked. Also Walcott is an inside forward playing in a side which suites his style of play. Lemon is a orthodox right winger playing in a system which hasn't suited him since redknapp has left and even then it's debatable
  3. Very good player just lost his way and had the ability coached out of him. He was making adults look like fools before he was a teen. what, like, 12? Yup. Decent players too. Ah, right! Thought that was a typo Did you know people that played against him as a youngster then? Yes, he grew up a stones throw from me. We used to play in the local park together (when Leeds would let him) Nice, is it a case of too much too young? That said, it's not as if he's tumbled down the leagues. Possibly, but his family kept him grounded. Don't get me wrong he was driving around let's in an m3 at 18 but he's cool, stayed friends with all the people he grew up with and what not. I don't know what it is, but he was much more than just a hug the line winter in his youth, could dribble centrally and was a good finisher as well. Cool, interesting to hear that. Do you think my comparison to Sterling was that way off? I see similarities at times. I could certainly imagine him playing centrally too. He's certainly a better shooter than he is a crosser that's for sure. Feel like he just got pushed out there due to his pace, and was told to hug the line by coaches, and it's taken away from his game. Yes and no Kaka, what we've seen from Lennon is more akin to an orthodox right winger where as Sterling has always been given more creative freedom than that. I think Lennon had the ability to do what Sterling does now but that day seems to have gone. He's played a couple of times centrally for Spurs and has looked quite ineffective to be honest but that could be more down to Spurs' style of play than anything else.

  8. Ex man city? Aye, the one they sold to Levante for £800k who sold him to Lokomotiv 24 hours later for £10 million
  9. And this sums up the way football has gone on a wider scale as well. Efficiency is a word for the work place not the football pitch. The Grim reality of modern football
  10. We all complain about that statement and then suddenly De Boer becomes an option? I'll believe it when I see it.
  11. I don't know if it's because I've kept a close eye on it for years but it still amazes me people don't know the basic 3 or 4 numbers that have represented the clubs debt for the past 4 or 5 years now. The loan he made the club on purchase is repayable. Not within any stated timeframe. But to label it as not repayable is false regardless of timescales. Would he need to give advance notice to take it back?

  13. Waiting for a championship manager. Laughable stuff
  14. No, VI and Flip do I don't like Busquets btw. Fantastic footballer but him, Alves and Alba are nowhere near likeable characters. Was just playing my friend, busquets is hard to like
  15. Not exactly crap is it? All they are saying is we'd have to pay them off to get the right man which is most likely true. Not that we will. Crap as in no decision until the hull game and we it'd be a 2 million compensation bill to bin the clowns currently in charge.

    Lee Charnley

    Pardew wasn't even close to getting sacked despite winning 5 games in in the calendar year until October, as well as conducting himself horribly on the touch line which apparently is important to Charnley as well. Never ever rule out us going for the cheap option, even if it might just be because we're waiting another season for someone to become slightly cheaper. I agree with this sentiment. Let's not forget the classic line, once we get the person we think is right we stick by them Also, the "promote from within" statement from one of the fans forums IIRC. The good thing about Carver is that he wouldn't get the same protection from the media that Pardew got and he'd be an even bigger train wreck so I can't see how he could possibly last an entire season. However, that'd probably mean fast tracking Beardsley's UEFA badges until the rest of next season meaning yet another write off. If Charnley is to be believed they don't really care about media opinion. I hope you and Ronaldo are right though.

  19. They need a central midfielder he's one of the best in world and will only get better. Plus, him leaving was during the ferguson era, times have obviously changed since then
