Saint Without a Halo

I am of course so privileged to be blessed and put in my place by an expert such as yourself on all things forum related! I will always defer to your obviously greater intellect and vast experience should I ever consider posting again!

Errr only one is possibly available (not yet confirmed) for the next two weeks at least and please note the title refers to most expensive signings, not most valuable players! Lallana and Shaw were not signed and therefore cost nothing in transfer fees, Lambert and Morgan were £1.5m and £1m respectively and neither Clyne or Rodriquez cost £9m or more! Therefore whilst I respect your right to an opinion on my post I suggest you read the title first and then do a bit of proper research before taking the **** in future!

But the club won't overturn it! So technically in my books he is not available for the manager to select

I see what you mean but we have suspended him for two weeks so we are not going to play him unless we over turn it!

fingers crossed

Technically a suspension in my book means unavailable! However I think you mean available in health terms but for the suspension!

Players are here for their contracts the dream is an added benefit! Wanyama nearly went to Cardiff FFS whilst players may leave for other reasons, no one will leave because of a dream!

Wanyama, Osvaldo, Loveren and Ramierez Just as we get to a run of fixtures where points should be plentiful! Hope at least Wanyama is back soon!

Errrr I think a degree makes him a graduate usually!

In todays match between Chelsea and Man u Rafael clearly got the full ball (not just a brush) but was booked because he did so with two feet coming in from the side which was deemed dangerous. Therefore whether Wes Brown touched the ball or not is not really relevant if the tackle is deemed dangerous. As it was clearly from behind it must surely therefore be dangerous and hence a foul and yellow card at least and a red if it was also deemed to stop a scoring chance.

I thought his stats said before yesterdays game that he is the top shot stopper in the premiership at 83%! Therefore if this argument is logical statistically every keeper in the premiership needs replacing!

Guly time

thank god Boruc was back

Ramierez is providing the missing spark

very poor last ball we need Gaston!

very poor crossing into the box and misplaced final passes mean all our good approach play is toothless

Its raining today and wet at Barasti and so unlikely to have scantily clad women around coming off the beach! So nice and warm at home with Merry Dave it is! The match is shown later on the new ALJISM at 1.45 AM but it is in full HD. So a stream must be available on the PC!

Good performances are a combination of talent, strength, stamina, footballing intelligence, teamwork and fitting into the managers system. If we keep him it means he ticks most if not all of the boxes and the coaching team think they can improve him, if not they will get rid like they have with Barnard, Sharp, Forte etc. It is after all what they are best qualified to decide and indeed what they are paid for. I suggest we let them decide and in the mean time support our players and therefore our club as best we can!

I'd go to see a Beattie led team at Pimpey! He hated them with a passion when here!

Can we remember that he is still young and needs polishing! Bale was crap for the first few years at Tottenham an look what happened to him! patience is required and let the manager decide when enough is enough!

didn't realise it was one or the other! how about 8th and the Cup final lets be greedy

What a great game for the neutrals to see Well done Beatts!

We squeezed through but another 3 let in at home when we are missing Boruc and Wanyama 3 against Villa, spurs, Chelsea and now Burnley It seems our defence only works with the first team compliment all playing

Back to normal now with Merry Merry talking about when you have handled young players ......

lalla 4-2
