Guest Roger Kint Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Apart from the chronic lack of goals there? The New Striker will have a lot of pressure on him to hit the ground running with those behind him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Must say, I wouldn't mind us putting another defensive midfielder in the starting Xl. There's a lot to be said for not conceding goals - look at City; their defence isn't that much better than ours. I want us to be a team that other teams need to take risks against.

It only works if you have a top class forward or two. Really the wide men should be chipping in with a few as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree the idea is good but doesnt really work with Barton/Jonas needing to make a much bigger contribution than they probably would. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thenorthumbrian Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Cannot imagine Wichkham coming here. Clubs like Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool are interested and he is supposedly a Liverpool supporter. He will go where the money is, like all players (or their agents)do. And as long as the fatman is in control, that ain't going to be here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree the idea is good but doesnt really work with Barton/Jonas needing to make a much bigger contribution than they probably would. Fair point, and in that respect Jonas is less suited to that formation. His shooting isn't accurate and he seems to need a lot of time to get his shots away. He's more the specialist winger and it's difficult to imagine him getting on the end of chances in the box. Ireland might be a possibility, depending on his recovering fitness. Or Gosling, even - not seen enough of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy could clearly play at the very highest level so best of luck to him. The thought of him turning out for another Premier League team makes me want to vomit though so fingers crossed he goes abroad somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 This may be a Giggs moment, but is Van Aanholt's Twitter account real? Couple of interesting tweets: @dannysimpson12 just got back to leicester init....gonna chill yeh man was good 2 see ya yesterday... See u soon u never know haaha! And this from Danny Simpson to him: @PvanAanholt_ very soon ha and then this also from a different Van Aanholt account ( ): @dannysimpson12 everyone keeps asking me to join newcastle if enrique leaves! i might come back if he does Correct on both counts.
