    The other 14

    It can be argued that the top six more or less speak for themselves but I wondered what people thought of the other 14 that make up the league. Which team or teams do you see to be the wildcard, the one that will be under the radar and could upset the apple cart and sneak into the top six...

    as we signed brad for two seasons it is apparent that a long term successor will be needed. watching wolves play wigan at present and the wigan keeper has been world class despite conceding 3 goals to date. he was also excellent when we played them. So i was wondering who people see as the...

    The Kaboul thread

    i think i am in a tiny minority of one who thinks it would be good to sell kaboul. I have never rated him and think he is a poor footballer with poor distribution poor reading of the game and very poor positional sense. so can all you kaboul lovers please explain why you would keep him...

    many of us on here accept we need tomoffload two three maybe even all four stikers. problem is who wouldsbuy them. keane to qpr maybe pav to newcastle - although russia more likely defoe - wba crouch - stoke are probably the best fits but would they go and would they buy them? any thoughts

    Are Bale and Lennon too quick?

    just a thought last night on a couple of ocassions the ball was pulled back and there was no one their to finish it off. I think this has happened quite often during the season. so should we put one of them through the middle as a second striker and play VDV wide? or just by a...

    Stoke - Crouch plays

    Good chance he will play considering the opposition. As i couldnt get a ticket i was wondering if those that are going are going to give him stick or is it time to support him. whatever we think he is a spurs player he got us there and ended it for us most likely. if i was going i would...

    Modric

    it is quite clear to me that the little fella is the key instrument in our relative progress so far under harry boy. His vision awareness and ability to read the game have him as one of the stand out players this season. however on saturday at wigan I thought he had possibly his poorest...
