Guest Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Was just thinking there, was it Zat Knight's Facebook where it was said we'd made a £1m bid for Elmander in January? If only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I think we'll go for him again in January. I'm just debating whether his form is temporary or him finally settling in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jukeboxromeo Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Elmander? Think he's going to sign a one-year extension. Not sure he'd join you at this stage anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 He's advocating not playing with a DM. Which is quite right, if Alan Smith is your only fit DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away from home, playing with no DM and playing a young lad, who hasn't really shown us anything in the first team and who still never really gets a game??? Yeah lets do that.

I would rather play with 10 men than have smith on the field. I would pay up his contract now, experience means fuck all when your as shit as he is.

NG32 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Its easy saying that on a forum but the cold hard reality is we have a thin squad and CH went for the most experienced team. If CH went and played HV in the centre with, i dunno Guthrie, everyone or a lot of people on here would have been saying "stupid playing HV in such a match away from home, should give him time when we are already a couple in the lead, should have played smith" Blah Blah.

Guest neesy111 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Everyone knows how shit and a liability smith is when he's on a football field, even more so since we've got a competent DM now. He should of played Guthrie in there and played Routledge. Adds more balance to the team as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what your saying, given the options i might have tried summik other then smith but we dont know the whole deal. So Ch probs went with what he thought was his best team and to chuck HV in their because "smith i just shit" would be madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that experience counts for fuck all when you're as crap as Smith is. He offers nothing positive to the team and often puts us under unnecessary pressure by giving away daft freekicks or losing possession. The guy is a total liability!

The Prophet Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Although Smith is especially bad we were still going to have problems no matter what midfield combo we went with. Stick Smith, Guthrie or Nolan in the middle as a pair and your going to have problems containing the opposition. Perhaps playing all three with two wide men may have helped in terms of numerical advantage but the defence are always going to be exposed due to the lack of defensive ability/fitness between them. Smith is just an all round poor football, Guthrie's fitness is simply awful and Nolan seem to need a competent defensive midfielder along side him to play his most effective stuff. To that extent Hughton had his hand tied, but playing all three of them in a 4-4-2 was a beating waiting to happen. These factors were undoutedly made to look worse by a bang in form Premier League outfit but the ponit still stands, without Tiote in the middle of the park we're in big trouble.

Disco Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Bit late in the day and I've only seen the extended highlights but Nolan, Coloccini and Williamson are all spackas of the highest order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
