Guest firetotheworks Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Colo will be fine with a decent midfield in front of him. Seb Larsson would be mint, but I dont know why he'd snub Birmingham to come here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I'd go all out for Doyle. I think he'd be ideal for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Danny Simpson and colo are going to get torn a new arsehole in the prem. Def need a new RB You just wont let this year long vendetta against Colo drop, will you? Didn't win one header tonight Simpson I agree with, he's been absolutely shocking in the last 3 months.

Cajun Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Sign Doyle and Fletcher, sell shola and best. Loan ranger for the season. Bring in larsson and ledley on a free. Retire butt, sell Nolan for £2m ,Smith about the same. That's 4 positions filled for a net layout of around £2m. With a drastically reduced wage bill. Piece of piss this management lark!

Conjo Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Danny Simpson and colo are going to get torn a new arsehole in the prem. Def need a new RB You just wont let this year long vendetta against Colo drop, will you? Simpson I agree with, he's been absolutely shocking in the last 3 months. Sheffields goal was a pre-view of how he will fare in the PL against big and fast players. He can not mark big players on set pieces. He is to slow and short. If who ever in charge next season can organize so he doesn't have to have those duties, I think he will do just fine next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Danny Simpson and colo are going to get torn a new arsehole in the prem. Def need a new RB Aye defo a new RB, Hutton would be perfect. Think Colo deserves another chance, he's done well this season and can hopefully carry it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Anyone read the program? He got asked who he would love to see saying messi but will probably never happen. Then got asked who we would want to sign realistically and said Cecs fabregas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I'd go for... Dale Bennett Craig Dawson Jamie O'Hara Alan Hutton Nigel Reo-Coker Carlton Cole David Nugent Nice mixture of serious potential and Premier League experience. Doubt the summer will be that good unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Colo will struggle this coming season, being left flat footed will be his downfall. The strikers in the prem are one hundred times what we have been up against in the Championship. Look at our strikeforce, by premiership standards it's very poor and we have a huge goals for in this division... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love a ball playing centre half but he dosnt win enough headers or have a quick enough turn of pace to cope in the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Icke - Son of God Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 It's very hard to guess how Colo will do in the top flight. He was poor last season but the turmoil surrounding the club will have had a huge effect on him and his game. This year he has looked like a Premier League defender playing in the Championship, lets hope he makes the step up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love a ball playing centre half but he dosnt win enough headers or have a quick enough turn of pace to cope in the prem. Carvalho is neither a quick player or an aerial beast but is one of the PL's top CBs. You don't need to be physically great to be a good defender, you need intelligence and that Colo has, he at least deserves a chance. I think he'll do a lot better next season, he has a better understanding of the English game and you could go through countless names of foreign defenders who have taken a year or so to settle in.

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 With a better midfield I can see Colo being good. It's that he was constantly tested last season, even if those problems he had the last time rear their ugly head, then it'll still happen less often with a decent midfield.

Exactly. That's why I cringe when I see people going on about about Bramble having the attributes of a top defender. That's bollocks because he lacks the main attribute of intelligence.
