Weird that we can turn in good performances when we’ve got a bench full of options and barely any injuries of note. Almost like losing some key players for weeks / months might make a difference!!
Buzzing for win… much needed. Can’t even remember the last goal we conceded either.
Maybe the answer is clear. Don't go as often and you might enjoy it more.
I haven't been able to go to every game ever but whenever I get the opportunity I relish and enjoy it as I know I won't be back there in 2 weeks.
I have found at times that the atmosphere at the lane isn't that great, I...
Contrary to many views I've read, I thought Dier didn't do too badly in midfield. Neat and tidy passing, patrolled the back four nicely. Obviously he was a world beater but this was one of thr first games he has had there.
Big positives for me were:
Alli - looks to be cracking young player...
Well, Dembele, Chadli, Alderwield, Fazio and Vorm are all over 25 as well but I totally take your point, we lack experience and I think we should definitely be keeping experienced, non-troublemaking players!
Speaking of Barber, is rebrab still about? Really find his itk interesting but haven't seen him about in a while!
(I always read rebrab as Barber even though I doubt he is actually Paul Barber)
So the players we know not to be involved in AIA Cup winning squad are:
Kaboul
Chiriches
Capoue
Lennon
Holtby
Paulinho
Adebayor
Cebellos
With Khumalo and Friedal already gone could see quite a few changes to the squad and of those left behind only two (?) would count as homegrown. Every year...
Surely we must have seen the first release of fixtures as a club before accepting this invitation.
My money would be on us playing on the Sunday or Monday over the first weekend of the season.
My list would look something like this:
For sale:
Kaboul
Capoue
Adebayor
Chiriches
Lennon
Dembele / Paulinho (1 of)
Townsend
Listen to offers for:
Soldado
Fazio
Stambouli
Carroll
Depending on incomings:
Walker
Fazio and Soldado not included in the squad again...what was the point of taking them?
Team: Lloris, Yedlin, Verts, Stambouli, Bentaleb, Dembele, Mason, Lamela, Erikson, Townsend, Kane
IF we sign Ings, would we not be in the same position as with Kane at the start of the season? Hasn't Poch already said that with the u21 finals Kane will not be fit for the start of the season after he has a much needed rest after the finals. Would Ings be any different?
If not, then we would...
You, sir, are right, @225 was a victim of rating by scrolling. I can only apologise on behalf of myself, my family and anyone else who has been a victim of my judgemental thumb.
Wasn't it a case of Bale playing while BAE was at the ANC but when the latter returned he was straight back in the team at the expense of Bale and then there were thoughts of loaning him out until BAE got injured?
I am quite excited about this Mitchell fella, hopefully it will bring some...
