Look, there was a lot of shit being flung Comolli's way on these boards nearing his exit, but the man bought talent. Adel Taarabt is looking like a great player. Kaboul is still looking a good buy. Kevin Prince Boateng is playing for AC Milan. Not to mention Gareth Bale and Luka Modric...
Thread title says it all. This seems to be the prevailing opinion here on SC and I thought it needed its own thread.. Most people seems to think Pavs and Crouch are the only strikers who can play up front alone and I disagree completely. I actually think Defoe would be our best lone striker...
I'd do a poll if I knew how, but who do you think should start against Villa. I've been on Hudd's case recently, but he played very well today. Still away at Villa is a different game than home against Wigan. JJ I think would be more suitable to play in this game and I don't want to see all...
When is Gio supposed to be fit. I really think he could do a job in our side, probably would be my first sub off the bench assuming Lennon and Kran are playing on the wings. Also might be better at Keane's role then Keane at some point soon.
I don't start threads very often, but I've seen in other threads people wanting to play Modric centrally or wonder if Niko can do a part there. Others are frustrated we didn't improve our 1st team with any of our purchases. I'm sure there are still some who'd want Jenas to start over...
Ok, I hate to be negative, but I've watched all of our games this season except for a few of the UEFA Cup ones. Anyways, David Bentley isn't very good. He's awfully selfish, he rarely ever gives the ball to the overlapping fullbacks and he tries to beat his man way more than his pace/skill...
Is anyone else with me? I'm so anxious for this match. I just keep marching around half drunk listening to Chas and Dave. We actually have bought 1st team players unlike last summer transfer window. Someone talk to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, or PM me a way to watch tomorrow. :-)...
With Keane and probably Berbatov gone, who's going to be our PK taker. I know Modric takes PKs for Croatia, but even the one he made wasn't too well taken of a penalty. I don't know if Bent takes penalties or Arshavin, if we get him. Bentley? Jenas?(missed against PSV, but its the only one...
I know we got a bit to go before kick off, but I decided to start this thread. As a yank I'm excited about this. I know it doesn't mean much to most of you in England, but our national team is continually improving and we have a stretch of friendlies here that are really going to test our...
Do you think we'll be playing a 4-4-2 next season I know this has been talked about in different threads involving players and so forth, but we've seen all the top teams move away from 4-4-2 and I don't think as of now we have the two CMs we need to play a 4-4-2 effectively and by effectively I...
Sorry if this was already mentioned somewhere. I was watching the match for about the fourth time again just now. On the broadcast you can download from our fine forum here, if you look after Keane's goal they show Juande's celebration of it and in the background you can see Gus Poyet get up...
Anyone see his dive against Everton just now. I'm serious, even if we could get him on a free transfer I'd say no. He's got no class. I guess he really got hit, but then he kicked into acting mode.
So here's to hoping they can regain the magic of the past two seasons and win us a cup. And here's a video about last season, gives me chills, don't know if it's been linked before, but I like it and we need some more positivity on this forum. COYS! Here's to our new winning streak that will...
