Guest bimpy474 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Perch was not a first-choice. He played when there was injuries/suspensions to the first-choice players in his position. Why did he start ahead of Anita in CM, i suppose Pardew trusted Perch and the tackle he provided at the time. That, plus Anita adapting to English football. Fair comment but when you had Tiote in there too it seems a bit overkill on tackles. Hence we played shite football i guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Perch was not a first-choice. He played when there was injuries/suspensions to the first-choice players in his position. That wasn't what you said though, you said permanent first team members, Perch definitely was one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I was wording that to match the "no first team players permanently signed" comment before it though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I was wording that to match the "no first team players permanently signed" comment before it though. I basically meant that I wasn't including Olivier Kemen tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Aye, but we haven't signed a permanent first team player, but we have sold one in Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 It was my question, Perch counts. I just meant non-youth player, like not including players that aren't going to play for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Got Jonas, Harper, Simpson, Perch and Ranger off the wage bill, which is probably about £100k/week. Probably just about cancels out Remy's loan fee/wages. Even more if you factor in Xisco. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that was the case, as Perch hadn't adapted to English football either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Yep, when Cabaye's form dipped and Tiote thought/was told he was Essien Perch was the dependable one because he knew exactly what his limitations were. Despite not wanting him to go I'm not sure he'd make the bench now. Decent squad player though who performed above that a few times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Oh he would have played plenty this year under Pardew, I'm sure of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brazilianbob Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Come to the conclusion that we never had any intention of signing any players in Jan. I doubt we will even sign DeJong. The usual statement will be we couldnt get this one over the line, bit ay least we have Shola !!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John P Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I still have a faint hope of maybe getting De Jong in on loan, but that doesn't fill me with much excitement anyway to be honest. Would at least mean Shola is one further down the pecking order Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Probably the first window where I haven't even thought about transfers. Just can't bring myself to be interested. I'm beaten. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
