sempuki Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Is anyone throwing a hissy fit though, really? Seems like an exaggeration. Think people are just upset at the thought of losing out on Alex Pearce. A crushing blow! To be honest I am not sure why Liverpool would want him (if it is true) - unless they are getting rid of Agger or Skrtel. They just got Toure to replace Carragher so if he goes there I doubt he would get much game time at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bert Shaft Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I think we've got a very strong squad. Last summer had nowt to do with our peformances last season. It was all Pardew. We have a very strong first team if all players are fit and a couple of extra decent "purples". The rest of the strength of the squad however is weak as piss and always will be whilst the likes of Williamson, Perch, Gosling, Obertan and the Ameobi's are in it.

nufc4eva Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Wouldnt mind a few of our players stepping up too after a poor season. s*** manager or not there were some shocking performances from them. If we can boost our starting XI with 1/2 and a few younger players i would be confident we could be in and around 8-10th place. Need to sign 2 strikers and winger minimum - probably Centre Half as well and look to get Sammy, Ferguson, Bigi, Campbell, Tav well bedded into the Squad.

So replacements when necessary on top of that ie Colo leaving. 1/2 would be a striker and winger with young CB possibly coming in to push Williamson away from the squad. Sammy/Fergie should go on loan as they dont look close to being worthwhile atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime tall lads take a bit longer. He needs some lungs and strength but i think that will come. Needs to read the game obviously but is very tricky with the ball, if he's in the opponents box i reckon he's a mare to play against, wouldn't know when to tackle. Fergie, i'm not so sure about. As you say though, loans for now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Sammy's a canny player, being called Ameobi doesn't help him but I can see him doing a good job for someone when he matures a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Sammy sometimes does all the right things to get in the box or get past his man but his final decision to either pass, shoot, or keep dribbling let him down. He gets a great head of steam and can really be a nightmare to a defender but then sort of slows down his decision making process as he's not sure what to do finish his move. If he gets the right coaching, he'll develop into a good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walcott and Nani being examples of players at great clubs who must have great coaches but who's decision making has let them down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Sammy isn't a Premiership player imo but only time will tell. Could be majorly wrong here but my view is that people have high hopes for him purely because of his surname. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they both looked like they had plenty missing. Different bits missing i'll give you. Anyway, we'll see! Hope they both turn out to be cracking players. Think next season is possibly a bigger one for Vuckic than it is for Sammy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
