Maybe you should stop PM'ing me then. Putting me on ignore will be a futile exercise as we all know you'll click "view post" anyway.

Well this is all very mature.
im out spurger - bored of getting followed on every thread by this guy who just wants to talk about Pienaar every 5 mins and what i "apparently" said a year ago.
back on topic - i thought both Parker and Cahill had excellent games. Big shame we didnt get Cahill but as ive said in another post, he ll be much cheaper in January and i guess we as a club just dont have millions to throw away so we ll take our chances with the other clubs in jan!

He's not a winger - you said that - he's not a central midfielder - I said that - what the fuck is he?
a left midfielder/part of a midfield 3! if a player plays on the left that doesnt automatically mean they are a winger. Nasri played on the left for Arsenal and Walcott on the right but only 1 of those is a winger!
Pienaar is like VDV/Niko in the way his position is quite versatile - he can play at the side or in a midfield 3 but isnt deemed a wide man or a centre mid

I wasn't referring to you Pringle. The PM from you that Brett decided to share in such a 'classy' manner earlier, just showed that you were trying to have a proper discussion.
As for Cahill...something that I haven't heard mentioned is that perhaps missing out on him will help with the performances of some of our CBs. Bassong and Kaboul know they have to show why we should want to keep them, and Bassong in particular has until January to justify staying at Spurs.
Cool, thanks for the reply. I love chatting and discussing on here but some people just want to flex their "keyboard muscles" and its a bit sad tbh - hes the first person ive used the ignore button for on any forum ive ever used!
Totally agree about Bassong btw - i personally dont think he ll be here long term. He has a lot of good attributes but like Bramble, he has too many lapses in concentration and this will only improve by playing regularly which will not happen with us. I am hoping to hear some news on King soon as the fact we let Woodgate go and kept him, followed by him starting pre season training made me think he had made progress.........

We don't play a midfield three. As part of the middle 3 of a 4-3-3 he may be in his best position, as long as he was playing the role of picking up the ball and getting it to the top third. There's no real outstanding part of his game is there? He's pretty pointless at the moment.
no we dont play a midfield 3 - but you asked what his position was!!! He is clearly not a first choice player when everyone is fit, however when you have an away game at a Chelsea or a Man Utd where you are going to have to defend more, having a player like Pienaar will be far more beneficial than a player like Kranjcar. It is a squad game after all.

I agree with you're views on Pienaar. Don't get why people describe Pienaar as a nothing player. He uses the ball very well, links up with his full back, knows when to release the ball and moves into space well. He's got good aggression and closes down space quickly. I don't get this view that if you're not beating someone on the outside and whipping balls in or scoring goals you're pointless. I like him and if he's given a chance by the fans he'll be a good signing. Unfortunately because everyone wanted a striker in Jan they've taken it out on him or they don't appreciate a different style of left midfield.

I'm beginning to wonder if that's true.

If the game had long finished and nothing new about these two players was being discussed and all we had was this embarrassing and frustrating dialogue then I would probably think about closing this thread.
...oh, yeah, right.
Nice one.
