An admirable theory but Reasonable Relations and Garry Cook are not two concepts that co-exist without also appearing alongside the words "is something that will never be known to bowel-crunchingly twattish sociopath..."

lol...yup pretty optimistic I know but i'm looking for some hope Bill - and you just squashed it :grin:

As for Jenas, i do hope we keep him, but i do also hope we only use him as a squad player when needed and don't give him a lot of first team action.

I hope he goes, it really is time for jenas to move on, Obviously I am looking at it from a point of view that a replacement, dare i hope for an upgrade? will then come...I guess if no one is coming, he is better than nothing.....well maybe

Yes, he's a good player, British, on reasonable wages and willing to fight for a place. What do you want? replace him with a player from abroad who will demand to play or quit? He's part of a squad and not as bad a part as many fans like to think.

He really isn't, for his position, and type of player he is, he is average at best.

Thats not how i see it, more a player with no real ambition, or desire, as he shows many a time on eh pitch. rings more true than "fighting for his place...Jenas and fighting, hardly words that marry

I've always had the feeling that Jenas will never leave Spurs.

sadly so do i

, his detractors are only stupid enough to notice that he's not world class . If used correctly and given license to go forward he is one of the best box to box midfielders in the EPL.
:eek:mg:You must have those new 3d rose tinted glasses, with the optional extra rose

Why can't some of our players just f*** off so we can sign some people and get excited about the new season. These selfish buggers are ruining it for everyone! It's not as if they are going to be playing regularly for us.

I've a feeling we will soon get our targets. Things seem to be comming together...

I think the club is doing everything in their power to not have a repeat of january. Lets just get our act together.

Diarra + Ade + Samba and I will be more then happy. Anything else is just a bonus.

No You weren't, we've been linked with Diarra since January, and if anyone deserves credit its Opensaysme who deserves credit who linked us back in June (21/05/2011)

He also claimed we had no interest in Friedel and viewed it as a total non-starter Eek

Agreed - thinks its going to be very busy at the start of next week, maybe even some action over the weekend while all eyes are on the match against Bilbao

He did indeed have 1 very good year for Arsenal but before and after he has been a 1 goal in 3 games striker..................who can't get into the Man City squad and is a substitute at Madrid.
The only team he has really consistently performed against is Spurs!

Actually he's been a consistent 1 in 2 striker since his 1st season with the goons. With RM he has 1 in 3 but a high percentage of his 15 appearances have been from the bench. 5 from 15, from the bench in a team he hasn't yet gelled with, 15 from just over 30 with Citeh and 46'ish from 105 with the goons.

Pretty consistently good from a 'lazy' striker with a bad attitude.

He also never really scores in gluts, very few, if any, hat-tricks. Exactly what you need from your 'lead the line' striker.

Again, consistently good.


Very few out there, even the 'World Class' touted players, can boast a better goal per game return.

Just got back from two weeks holiday, not touched the internet, come back to find us still talking about bloody B&Y :bang:

I go away for two weeks on 29th August, imagine what it's going to be like when I get back and read POTL going on about B&Y being lined up for the January window :lol:

I think we also really need another winger with pace that can cover both sides. Bentley's not up to it and Giovani will be sold. I believe we need some more pace out wide to provide backup/competition to Bale and Lennon.

:) I did the same thing, came back and worked my way through two pages of ITK from the RO in order from the last one before I went, only to find things were exactly where I had left off...

I agree that it is a target, but I'm not sure its that high in the agenda. We have Pienaar who will only grow this season, while VdV seems to do well enough slotting in on the right. Lets not forget Townsend will be kept for at least the Uefa cup. And Rose can cover both wings in an emergency, if pace is really needed.
