Ash Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 All those players getting new contracts. If only Barton had one more year on his contract than he would have been among them now. Doubt it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brynn Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yeah, having a right midfielder with as a good a foot as Ryan Taylor while being vastly superior in just about every other area would be horrible, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Reading the reactions to this news it seems to me some people are completely oblivious to the fact you need a squad, not just a first team. I'm confident we won't break the bank by extending him, and he's proven himself to be a dependable member of the squad for us, so I will go on record as being perfectly happy with this bit of unexpected news.

Foluwashola Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Brynn, I'm not sure what the hell you expect. He's still starting matches, of course he's going to get a new contract. Hopefully he'll be phased out as we bring better players in, but in the meantime we still need him. You don't go around releasing your players because you can "do better".

I have no problem with him being a squad player. I do have a problem with us extending his contract and at the same time pairing it with a statement of him being a fantastic fotballer and a key player starting week in and week out. Thats where the wheels come off for me, especially when you know who must sit on the bench for him to start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fail to see what Hatem Ben Arfa's lack of pitch time has to do directly with whether you should be happy a dependable squad player has had his contract extended. By all means, be unhappy that HBA isn't starting more often (I know I am), not that Raylor has been offered a well deserved contract extension.

littlelunchbox Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 think this aint a bad deal. he's a limited player even as a defender, but sadly he is the best Left back we got. People can carry on creaming over Santon, yes we know he's a foreigner and is automatically deemed as more exotic and skillful, great at pushing forward and such etc.. but when it comes to purely defending, Santon has been found wanting, and that's being generous to the lad.

Disco Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Didn't know his was running out. As long as he doesn't play too much, makes perfect sense in that he can play a few places and pops up with the odd assist/goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I would have no problems with such a statement if that was his standing in the squad. The problem is, the statement isnt just a motivational statement and sugarcoating of his position. It mimics Pardews opinion of him,genuinely being seen as a key player and fantastic fotballer by pardew and started every week if fit over options that would seem blatantly better by everyone on here save a few. The contract is a reflection on how Pardew plans to build a side in which Ryan Taylor is a key player. I dont particularily fancy such a prospect.

Ash Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yeah, having a right midfielder with as a good a foot as Ryan Taylor while being vastly superior in just about every other area would be horrible, like. £60k a week to sit on the bench? No thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
