No hes ****

Have you seen Collins play? Utter garbage. Just long ball after long ball, struggles in the tackle and isn't great in the air. I'd rather have Fonte and Yoshida that Collins personally.

Our players suit the way we play, WHU's suit the way they play. If their team tried to play like us, then they would be bottom IMO. If we tried to play like them, then we would struggle. Can you see Collins and Reid knocking the ball about and into midfield and back out....no not a chance. Thats why it's hard to say whether you'd rather have our players than theirs. They have a bigger squad and more strength in depth, but i'd say our first 11 just about edges it and play football in a way that WHU can only dream of. I know who I'd rather pay 600 quid a year to watch!!

So if you're saying that then obviously you'd rather have them over our reserves....the question was about 1st 11...

Surprised about that Kraken. Especially OBrien. He is utter dog. An Jaaskeleinen has been poor all season, even my whu mates don't rate him whatsoever

Jarvis better than Lallana? Diame better than Cork? Collins better than Fonte? No No No (IMO)

To be fair we only brought in 2 players last season at this stage didnt we? Lee and Sharp ?

Which of their players would you have in our first 11 then ?!

Think that one was done to death on the other pages.

I'd have Diame as an option in midfield, maybe Tomkins....apart from that...i'm struggling.

I think we will be considerably better off than them next season should we both stay up.

We have plenty of other players who can do that job 100 times better than Barnard. He's a L1 player at best, just like Seaborne. I liked him in L1 but time for him to leave.

Barnard in the premiership ?!?! Are you mental ?!

I didn't know you were such a celeb Phil !

Lambert starts for me. When we played there we went and played with essentially 5 up front. Was it Ramirez's first start? Seem to remember us playing Lambert and J-Rod pretty wide up front (think it was to counteract their attacking full backs), with Ramirez in a bit of a false 9 position centrally. and then Lallana left wing and Puncheon right wing. The most naive point of the season IMO. We're a lot more rigid now, but without losing too much of that flair. Would expect Lambert to start instead of J-Rod - although wouldn't be surprised if we went 442 with Ramirez left again.

Hugely brave from TF if that is the case. Especially given their current position. Does seem to be **** or bust !

Be funny if Santon also leaves Newcastle. Any update on the Collocini story ?

Sounds like this one is dead in the water. Looks like we tried our best but he simply wasn't that interested about coming, and therefore we moved onto Forren.

Good, bye bye

Fonte and Puncheon for me as the most surprising. Cork/Lallana/Morgan/Lambert I was confident would make the step up, however Punch wsa written off and he's even got a few goals for us this season, and Fonte was a bit dodgy last season but has been superb this year after a few dodgy games at the start. Even that Arsenal game when we lost 6-1 I didn't actually think he played that badly.

I'm really not sure how you manage to mess up every quote you do....!! Antonio is an average NPC player, nowhere near good enough for a team going for promotion or a prem side.

Not sure about the WHU QPR game. I guess a WHU win is best, though I think WHU are catchable...

Thought this would get announced late last night or early this morning. Didn't see it dragging on for another day. Let's hope he's met all the players already.

Antonio was never a good footballer. He was just quite quick and never gave up. His techinical ability and footballing brain was non existent.

Thank god for that. Was getting worried when he was making the bench, he is a L1 defender at best. Good riddance.
