  1. Don't think people are suggesting a lot of the individuals are incredible, but they irrefutably complement eachother perfectly and are unquestionably a good 'team'.

    Would feel safer publishing a cartoon of Muhammad than slagging HBA on this forum tbh

    I'm not suggesting that he would, but he claims to love the club.. he obviously loves his salary more. Out of principle, if I was in that position I would walk. The club has to come first. Easy to say that on a forum when you're not actually walking out of a very high salary job at the end of your career. And you wouldn't have a part if you that think you could turn it around?
  4. So he's reportedly a decent coach. Doesn't mean he'd make a manager. Would bank on one of the much maligned 'dinosaur British managers' taking us up over him if it was my money.

    There's no right formation, you look at the strenghs and weaknesses of the players and try to come up with a system. Unfortunately our squad is such a weird hodge podge of styles because we buy primarily for resale, that it isn't really perfectly suited to any gameplan. It's telling that in years gone by people have been screaming for certain formations or certain players, whereas this season no one has the slightest idea what our best team would be. Squad is a mess.
  6. Do we have his address? I've got some haribo tangfastics and half a chocolate orange, let's just send him a load of prezzies.

    Yeah nothing to get worried about, think it's just our version of an end of year review in a normal job.
  8. Every manager talks nonsense, it just gets picked up on more when they're losing, which is usually when they have to do more of it too.
  9. Considering the other frightening options then yes I would, with some hesitation. He's never built a successful defence in his career (didn't see his teams pre-Wigan so that could be nonsense) so I dread to think what he'd get out of ours. Would probably score a lot of goals and be reasonably good to watch though so yes.
  10. This. Hans is silly. Proof is in the pudding is a fine adaptation. Silly Hans.
  11. I'm not sad enough to actually go looking for a quote but come on, you must've said something negative about Colback as a left back at some point, it's exactly the same in that they started at lb and then we're moved to the centre. He's just not very good.
  12. I live literally less than two minutes walk from there and have never been in, looks decent from outside, would you recommend it? Have never usually heard of the rest of the acts on and it's so hard to motivate myself for the journey.
  13. So he failed, I respect him more now anyway for the fact he actually had the guts to go over there and take the challenge.
  14. Think I read Sherwood was unhappy with recruitment because he desperately wanted more premier league experienced players, could be wrong though.
  15. He is apparently one of the most vocal.
  16. That's the thing though, Darlow whenever Forest were on was ropey as anything. Not to say he might grasp the chance. I mean Elliot has and surprised us all. I'm pretty sure no one thought Blob would be as good as he has, in fact he's kept us in games. Bournemouth away was three points Blob won us on his own basically. Blob has been pretty f***ing s****, I am quite confident Darlow will not be any worse. Just because he is a decent shot stopper (all keepers are at this level are) and put in a few performances where he has made a string of good saves it doesn't make up for his total inability to command his box, unwillingness to come off his line, lack of pace and utter uselessness in one on one situations. He's f***ing s***. Outrageous this like. But rob said nice words about the bad man and nasty words about the nice man

    Yeah I've not seen many full games of spurs this season but I think he's probably the best current option. Think he was trying too hard to impress with the first non penalty tackle and the penalty can happen to anyone really, I'm not too worried about it. He's no peak Ashley Cole but I think he'll do for now.

    .... Is Gini just not that amazing? I'm trying not to judge him on tonight like but I always thought we just weren't using him optimally and getting the man who beat Manchester Uniteds big new signing to Dutch player of the year was amazing, but Depays proved to be a bit bobbins and I'm just not seeing it? He's obviously decent enough for us in our current state like but had hopes of him being the kind of player to force a big money move to a top six club with his performances fairly quickly.

    Maybe that's what Johnson watched?!?
  20. I'm still embarrassed buying condoms, depending on the rest of my goods. Thank god I don't need to do it often.

    This is doing my head in like, i agree to a point about Rooney. But if Vardy was the same age as Kane/Alli him starting wouldnt even be debatable. This impact sub stuff is nuts & seems to be the cliche fast player against tired legs. I also dont get this undertone in football that if you're good at a younger age its more "real" & you have more potential. What matters is whats happening right now. Vardy is a few goals off the likes of Lewandowski & Aubemayang in what was seen as a much weaker side. Yet aye, lets maybe bench the guy. It has to be his age like, must be. He's not been at the top level for as long so its not as "real" or something, maybe give him a chance off the bench. It's just the formation stopping me from saying Vardy MUST start, if we play a two it should obviously be him and Kane but I'm not sure what to do with the rest of the team. Have to confess I didn't see the Germany game so I can't really comment on how the three with Alli were or who to put around them but it sounds encouraging.

    In the squad, probably. Starting, get tae f***. Agreed on the not starting.

    People just hate Rooney, not as good as he was but should still be in the squad.
