Northern Monkey Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Smith for Dyer is f*cking madness. blueyes.gif Before with Dyer we had a lack of goals and end product, with Smith we have a lack of goals, end product and pace. Bad move Sam. He can provide the telegraphed, guaranteed-to-foul, fucking stupid 7 yard sliding tackles that we will miss so muvh after getting shot of Parker, mind.

Guest Guinness Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 It's Jenas. In all seriousness blatenty has to be Smith after the recent stroies. Was there any news on defenders after the match tonight? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Don't think Smith's as bad a replacement as people make out. No worse than Dyer, really, and would make us a harder team to beat on the road. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Paul Scharner. He's always looked a good player in the AM. Could be a good option if there's little money. Schraner for 2-3m then spend the rest of the Dyer money on the defence imo. Would definitely take him over Smith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron von Fat Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 In situations like this where there is a large contingent dead set against a signing, I always really root for that player to prove everyone wrong. I guess I like underdogs. A good example is when we got Craig Bellamy when everyone wanted Francis Jeffers. Sadly, this doesn't always come true. Good luck Alan.

Dr. Nguyen Van Falk Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Depends on the type of pay he's on as to just how bad a transfer this would be if it was Smith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quailman Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Likely to be Smith, and I am happy tbh - better and more consistent than Dyer! Like for Like, but with abit more quality. Would be happy if it was someone better mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad move Sam. He can provide the telegraphed, guaranteed-to-foul, f****** stupid 7 yard sliding tackles that we will miss so muvh after getting shot of Parker, mind. The amount of times I've seen him for Man Utd in midfield giving away stupid free-kicks in dangerous positions is crazy. Explains why he wants big full-backs.To deal with the countless number of deep f*cking free-kicks we're about to concede this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 The only thing that gives me hope of it not being smith Wants first team football wont get it in his favoured position as a striker here With all the clubs chasing him why would he pick being a CM here than first choice striker else where??

James Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Kieron Dyer is ten times the player Smith is. However, I reckon Dyer will fail at West Ham - bad career move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he even be a first choice CM here? Hes probably going to compete with Butt, Emre, Barton, Geremi, and depending on the formation, possibly the likes of NZogbia and Milner. Maybe even Nobby. I think the first four are without a shadow of a doubt better central midfielders than Smith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
