ShearMagic Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Beye Taylor Cacapa Enrique Faye Emre Milner Duff Owen Martins That team should be enough to give any of the teams outside the top four a bloody good game. You can guarantee it wouldn't though. Didn't he go off with a hamstring injury or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Keegan didn't mention anything about any injury on Emre on the post-match intervue. Hope he's fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Aye, I think you all were mentioning the person who speculated about Emre and an injury...I was the one who wrote it and I heard it on Setanta by the match commentator if I am correct..."..and we are being told Emre may have been withdrawn b/c of an injury to his hamstring..." or something like that. It was early in the morning after a night out but I'm sorry if I confused anyone! My bad all...hope I'm wrong and my mind played a trick on me...

Guest BooBoo Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Serious question- has Emre ever had a good game in an away Premier League game? Maybe Spurs last season?? I'm struggling. He's the ultimate homer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 His assists-to-set pieces ratio this season has been surprisingly good. Still a bench player though. If Keegan can sort Barton out, he can play a big role for the rest of this season. Really wouldn't like to predict how our midfield squad will shape up by next September... could be anything.

Guest f***thepress Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Come the villa match i hope kev plays this team as some are still underperforming; Harper Beye Faye Taylor Enrique Milner Barton Duff Nzogbia Owen Carroll Duff maybe better off in central midfield at least he can pass the ball something butt appears unable to do... Give young carroll a go , much better foil for wee micky Given needs a rest or that bowel injury looked at again , stood and watched Huths header slowly pass into the net...

Zoggy is suspended, Given is ten times the keeper Harper ever will be, Martins should be one of the first names on the teamsheet, definitely ahead of Carrol, Duff is not a CM, Emre doesn't deserve to be dropped.

Optimistic Nut Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 His set-pieces when he's played have been much better this season than before. Pretty sure at least 5 league goals have came directly from an Emre free-kick or corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emre5 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 he's in the turkey squad who face sweden in a friendly tomorrow(wed), we'll know then if he's injured, if not has to play against villa. Didn't play too badly considering 3 match ban would've been struggling with fitness hoping that's why kk took him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I thought Emre played much better than Barton and Butt. Barton and Butt looked cemented into mid-circle while Emre did all the running in the first half. He kept the ball in the team and went on a few nice runs with and without the ball. Think he gets alot of stick unfairly based on sundays game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when Martins is back he'd be able to play the killer ball Not down the right, thats tactical suicide mate. That means; We will never get to touch line on the right flank. We will be playing much narrower The crosses will be in swinging (which is harder for strikers) We will have less protection of the right back However, Emre's abilty to deliver a ball is vital to our season. We have already scored 3 from Owen and 1 from Cacapa and there are probably others too. His main problem is that he deosn't get enough goals. I'd love to see Emre run at teams more too.

James Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 One thing I'd like to try on a short term basis, but doubt I'll see, is a system where Emre gets 45 minutes, and Geremi gets 45 minutes, and both players are instructed to play at a higher intensity safe in the knowledge that they are playing just the 45 minutes.

Or just sell the pair of them and buy two players who can last a full game... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sniffer Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Neither of them are good enough. Sell 'em both in the summer. Geremi especially has been a huge disappointment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
