Segun Oluwaniyi Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Don't think anyone can deny that Gonzalez has turned out to be a thoroughly s***, worthless signing. But it's not really anyone's fault, he's injured. No one can help that. Yes, I mean its too bad whats happened to him, but it is no ones fault it hasn't worked out. I actually thought he looked alright from what I saw of him too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Don't think anyone can deny that Gonzalez has turned out to be a thoroughly s***, worthless signing. But it's not really anyone's fault, he's injured. No one can help that. No one except the people who were tasked with reinforcing our squad and especially our (attacking) midfield options during this summer's transfer window and who failed so miserably that they had to resort to signing a completely unproven loan player on the last day of the transfer window who they couldn't even run through a proper medical because it was almost literally at the 11th hour. Getting seriously worried now. Injuries and suspensions were always going to happen and we were threadbare and devoid of quality in midfield even before this latest setback. This season has relegation written all over it.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Not sure how it was eleventh hour tbh. We were on about Gonzalez a good couple of days before the deadline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Not sure how it was eleventh hour tbh. We were on about Gonzalez a good couple of days before the deadline. Just verified. August 30th, 1 day before the deadline. Nitpicking though.. Guess you can't really fault the rest of my point..? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 30th, 1 day before the deadline. Nitpicking though.. Guess you can't really fault the rest of my point..? You didn't really make a point. Yes, he was signed near the end, yes he was unproven. But he may well have been a good signing if not for the injury. The fact that he played twice infers that he passed whatever medical the club would have to give him before putting him out on the pitch. I think all would agree that we should not be satisfied with the midfield, but I would say I don't think this season has relegation written all over it more than the last two seasons.

ElDiablo Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Oh god. Not even that dissappointed to be honest, I just fully expect shit to happen where we're concerned so it doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Wow, you came up with that youtube really,really quick. Just honestly, I'm stunned you found that so fast. . He actually does have decent form, and I disagree with the journalist, and think he needs anger treatment more than fighting lessons. His problem seems to be doing rash angry things rather than being undisciplined. And I still don't change my original thoughts about being scared of him or anything. The only person who scares me out of the current squad is Taylor because I think he's slightly mad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I saw Barton's pic on the front of The Mag earlier on. He's looking pretty pasty like; looks like he'd been away from natural light for about six weeks, like in a cave or summat or... oh aye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShearMagic Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 3 up front against Chelsea? Yeah, okay We've been at our best from a defensive point of view with the 4-3-3. Five clean sheets in eight i think it was at the back end of last season. Against: Sunderland, Portsmouth, Reading and Fulham. Hardly anyone of Chelsea's quality in there. We'll lose far worse if we play 3 up front and 3 in midfield, they'll absolutely kill us down the wings. As unattractive as it is you can't take the game to Chelsea, because look at what happens when West Brom try to play every side off the park when they're not good enough to.

Yorkie Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 We'll get hammered if we go 4-4-2 n'all. Chelsea isn't really an appropriate game to measure a formation's effectiveness. I was basically just making the point that 3 upfront doesn't necassarily mean we're more vulnerable at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
