Guest neesy111 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 That we've had no more than two fit CBs all season. There was no overlap between Williamson/Saylor IIRC (unless Williamson was available at the start of the season and I've forgotten). An big injury to colo would have derailed the season imo.

Dave Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Signing Cisse. A stunning transfer that has paid off ridiculously well and might well hint at a change in philosophy at the top. I had been asking at the time why they didn't trust Carr/Pardew with more funds if they believed in their ability to sign good players so strongly, and they went and did it to the tune of nearly £10m; easily the biggest spend since Ashley got his feet under the table properly. I'm under no illusions that our best players may be poached this summer, but I now have confidence that not only is our scouting system capable of finding great quality for little cash, they can and will be backed with decent funds if the deal is right. Really promising stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Obviously one = Perch stepping up the plate. Another one that no one has mentioned yet is are surprisingly good run of fortune with injuries. S Taylor ----> Williamson Best ----> Cisse When the former two got injured the latter two came in just at the right time. Ok having Saylor out for season was a blow but not as bad as we have had a few seasons back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 That we more or less went almost a whole season without a fuckoff deflected goal conceded until today. After 2010/11 where we seemingly conceded exclusively from deflections at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 How much the press (bad stuff) has left us alone, once Joey left, and even the renaming didn't get stirred up half as much as i thought it would. I suppose KKK and the massive racists have helped like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Seriously, I think the way Liverpool dealt with the Suarez affair was probably the most shocking thing of the season.

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 How f*ckin well Pardew has done with the squad players.... some of them really have no right to play for a team that finished 5th but fair play almost all of them played like they deserve to be there at times.

Cronky Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Gary Neville being the best pundit on tv. This for sure. With us - how tough we have been in getting results against the odds at various times. The discipline of the side has been excellent. In the Premiership - Wigan suddenly deciding to play like a top-six side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 on things not to do with us the overall standard of defending in the league as evidenced more than any other game by the Chelsea-Arsenal game early this season City's win at Old Trafford, never thought I'd see that happen to Man U on their own turf Arsenals recovery from a summer of chaos and the 8-2 to third place. Wigans recovery from what seemed certain relegation The fact stoke are still called plucky underdogs despite spending a shitload Man U's throwing away of an 8 point lead-another thing you just don't expect to happen to them especially in a title run in The Muamba thing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umer Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Getting 4 points off Man Utd in a season when they finished on equal points as the champions. The amount of "goal of the season" contenders we scored in 1 season. Number of clean sheets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
