Our lack of transfer activity is a f***ing joke but I'd love for someone to claim there's not enough talent in today's squad for the manager to get performances out of them.

 

Someone will Dave... Someone will.

Think it's 5 years since Keegan tried to flog Shola only to be scuppered by his failed medical, yet we're still plugging away with him in 2013 at the start of a new season.

 

Played 45 mins midweek so I'm expecting him to look absolutely shot after 25 mins.

 

However if we can get vastly improved performances from Marveaux and Cisse then we should still look quite decent. Big if though, in my opinion.

True, but we still need a couple honestly.

 

Pardew or no Pardew.

If we could get Shola to drop a bit deeper and be the link man i wouldn't be so down on him starting today personally.

 

Shola seems intent on being the furthest forward no matter who he plays with which makes no sense considering Cisse is the one with the superior finishing skills.

Makes sense with our football (sadly). If we're playing high balls over the top for him to flick on to Cisse, Cisse has to run onto the flick on - not be ahead of Shola.

Just clinging to the faint hope that the fact we now have Remy and Gouffran on the bench, Shola cannot under any circumstances, having played midweek, be allowed the full 90.

 

The more chance of me playing 90 mins out there ffs  :lol:
