  1. I had an epiphany last week and realised why he has to go. The biggest issue with our team is that too many players don't want to be here. They've been sold the club as essentially a glorified shop window and so they show no fight and desire in games and generally have a very apathetic attitude to the club. McClaren will never be able to motivate these players as they know that he doesn't want to be here either, don't forget he knocked us back twice and only came when he didn't have a job and we were the only club after him.
  2. It's not even a mid table Championship team. It's their B team. That is the really worrying fact.
  3. I agree with the principle of what you're saying, but you're being harsh on Sissoko. He did exactly the same thing against M'Gladbach and followed it up with a delightful volley that hit the bar.
  4. Obertan will be even more awful than usual today. He is one of the mentally weakest players I've even seen. Returning to the club he failed at will break him, expect shocking control, misplaced passes and dribbling into blind alleys all afternoon until he is subbed at 60 minutes.
  5. Based on the first two games (and the last 18 months), Colo signing on for another year could be our worst bit of business this summer. He's on a big wage and him staying means I find it unlikely that we'll sign the second central defender we so desperately need.
  6. Don't want him at the expense of Cisse. If he comes I see Cisse going, might have been different had Riviere not got injured, he could have been moved on instead.
  7. http://talksport.com/football/new-premier-league-kits-classic-sponsors-featuring-liverpool-man-united-and-arsenal?p=7 If only. Even makes the blue trim work. The blue on the stripes still looks crap.
  8. How is the BBC able to get away with such terrible lazy punditry? Murphy freely admitting he essentially watches no other major league than the Premiership, it's literally his job to watch football!!! Jenas asserting Zayata does Cech "With his eyes" over a slow-mo of Zayata with his eyes clearly fixed on the ball, he's had all afternoon with that footage.
  9. Nah. Yes. Class Quite the prediction. Had a good game though. Not a huge fan but he went some way to winning me over (still some way to go mind).
  10. Biggest lesson from that game was that both Tiote and Colo aren't up to it anymore. Overall broadly positive.
