Guest toonlass Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 As an aside, cwarris has us after Irelend as well. He was right about Pardew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cwarris has linked us with everyone this transfer window, he also linked Carroll with a £20+ million move to Spurs in the first few days of the window. I think he has had one lucky break and now thinks he is some kind of oracle! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovejoy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 If pardew could get Ireland playing again, it's a great deal. Would keep Barton on the right as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovejoy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Cwarris was a couple of days ahead with Phil brown to pne as well. His other 300 claims have been wrong however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 There's a really good player there deep down in Ireland. Don't have a clue what is going on with him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Isn't Ireland on massive wages still, or did he take a cut when moving to Villa? He's a nutcase but if the financials make sense he's worth a try. There's a quality player hidden inside that demented mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Cwarris claims everything, it actually annoys me seeing his fucking name, this very post annoys me! Can people stop mentioning the wanker? Why is anyone following him? Not sure we would need Ireland anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tall Striker Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Really hope we don't get swp or ireland. We've only just finally got rid of all the wankers and mooney grabbers. Plus playing anyone other than Barton on the rw for the forseeable future is utter madness as he's been superb there, I'd say creating a good 50 percent of carrolls goals if not more.

Guest Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I know Barton's done well on the right but how many assists have came from open play? I can think of West Ham away off the top of my head. If we signed a right winger we'd still have his threat from set pieces where the bulk of his assists have come from anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I know Barton's done well on the right but how many assists have came from open play? I can think of West Ham away off the top of my head. If we signed a right winger we'd still have his threat from set pieces where the bulk of his assists have come from anyway. He created Shola's goal at Wigan, assisted Lövenkrands vs. West Ham and at West Ham he crossed for Carroll and also sort of created Nolan's with his first cross. I wouldn't change anything about Barton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 You'd have set pieces but you'd also have him in central midfield which he's absolutely shit at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'm not sure where Ireland would fit in. Someone once said that he'd be ideally suited to Arsenal, with their short passing style, and I think that's right. In an English style 442, he doesnt seem to suit either a wide position or a central one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 If Ireland found his city form he would be an asset. Cover for cm in the shape of tiote barton Nolan gosling and Ireland would be great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broadsword Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'd have Ireland here in a shot to be honest. Has the potential to be a much better Nolan. Just like Nolan and Barton were s**** a few years ago and have come good, I think Ireland could be the same. Barton Ireland Tiote Jonas Ben Arfa Caroll Lovely. Means we could pick and choose the games Nolan plays and rotate him and Ireland. I'm sure Ireland could play right side too, for when Barton is injured or more likely suspended. The key is always having Tiote in the middle, Barton and Ireland in the middle would be woeful against all but the poor teams. Tiote opens us up to being able to have a player like Ireland in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 The fact that Ireland cannot guarantee a starter at Villa is fxxking worrying. And I am not willing to "invest" any more years on so called "talented and troublesome" players. We've paid a huge cost, including a relegation, on Barton and to do the same on Ireland? Fxxk no.
