Jackie Broon Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Every manager we have seems to love Nicky Butt He is good. it´s just that he cant pass a ball But isn't that a slightly fundamental aspect of being a good footballer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShearMagic Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Look, who cares about SA. We have one thing to focus on for the next 2 hours, and it's not that fat bastard Sam Allardyce. HOWAY THE TOON!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its OK if hes paired with someone who can pass and looks to take over in that department, which is why ive not understood why hes been partnered with Emre so rarely, despite them looking good together whenever its happened.

Parky Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Boro 1. Mark Schwarzer 2. Luke Young 31. David Wheater 14. Robert Huth 6. Emanuel Pogatetz 4. Gary O'Neil 10. Fabio Rochemback 27. Lee Cattermole 3. Julio Arca 19. Stewart Downing 11. Jeremie Aliadiere No Alves... They look quite poor on paper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Hmmm, apparantly let a lot of "Big players, especially defenders" go because we wouldn't spend the money! Yet the board let him spend 6 million on Smith, on a whim with no real idea how he would fit into the team, and 6 million on a unproven teenage leftback. Doesn't really ring true, Sam.

But hes saying that those signings were made afterwards, ie after he had missed out on several players, and also that other players werent possibilities because they would be big money signings (£10m plus?).

johnnypd Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 didnt expect boro to go with one upfront, tho i think its been forced by selection problems it might suggest they'll sit back and defend. i'd prefer them to come at us as we're not great at breaking down well organised teams who sit back all game. three in midfield means emre is not going to have a lot of space, not neccessarily a bad thing as he thrives when play is congested and he can slip a simply ball out wide into space. the worry is, can barton and duff take advantage of that?
