Dokko Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 He's not needed. Duff on the other hand is questionable, how many wingers have we got? Smith isn't a striker or a midfielder, not that we need his talents in either position. Get rid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spark Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 We have players to play in Smith's position. We have none to play in Duff's position. Therefore, sell Smith, keep Duff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Aye, fuck off a load of players cos we "don't need them". One or two players for every position is ample. Injuries do not occur, nor do dips in form, and competition for places is generally a bad egg in English football. We as a club can attest to that as well as anyone; Championship ftw.

toontownman Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Keep until January. We should try and keep hold of the likes of Smith, Duff, Enrique until January, by which stage hopefully we will be closer to knowing our chances of getting back up or not. Not to mention also have the time and hopefully the stability to attract replacements in . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 It could be £4mill for Butt its still no, we need everyone we have left, its not rocket science.. No way, you'd reject £4m for Butt? I could understand rejecting an offer for Smith but not that prick, he actually hurts our performance when he plays. He's the only player we have left I'd accept any offer for without thought. I was actually hoping he'd stays injured because I just know when he's fit he'll be the first midfielder on the team sheet, at the expense of the likes of Guthrie and Barton who are far better players.

I wouldn't mind keeping Smith, but if it were somehow a choice between him and Duff, then I would keep Duff. Personally I don't think we can afford to lose anyone else.

Guest Magpie007 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Same as Duff, can't afford to sell him because of the size of the squad. agreed who would replace him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Same as Duff, can't afford to sell him because of the size of the squad. agreed who would replace him? Well we would still have Nolan, Barton, Guthrie, Geremi and Butt () for two positions. As well as younger players like Vuckic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Magpie007 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Cant believe it seems more important for some people to cut our wages down than to submit a squad of 18 players or what ever to each match spot on - Smith will do a job in this league - doubt many people konw the quality of the teams we will face and how the likes of smith and duff will match up against them.

gazzaA2 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'd honestly say he's the one player left in the squad who's indespensible. He'll make us tick this season and give us the bite we need. Without him we'll have no bite in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Judging by his peformence in the last game, and the fact that it dosn't look like were signing anybody, i'd say keep. Oh my god. Isn't that all we can do though? This league is inferior (Stephen Carr got promoted FFS), so we are all in the process of watching how the team perform at this level and adjust our mindset as to what is and what isn't good enough. It will take a while to fully establish what a good player is and what a good player isn't at this level. Agree with this. I don't know why some people seem to have it in their heads that playing in the championship is in any way comparable to playing in the premiership, and that the same level of ability is required, because frankly the gulf between the two divisions couldn't be any wider. Smith looked good against WBA and he'd look good against most of the shit in that division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith looked good against WBA and he'd look good against most of the s*** in that division. I said it BEFORE West Brom and i'll say it again (seeing as you're only as good as your last game on this forum): Alan Smith is too good for this league. He's the one player we should really strive to keep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Aye, would get rid, need Duff much more than Smith. we've got a few centre midfielders to pick from whereas wingers we've got next to nowt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
