  1. He'll be able to get a No.1 spot at Arsenal or Liverpool pretty easily I'd say, and those clubs are registered with an interested. I think he'll go to one of those 2. We obviously do need a top new GK, but someone of his level is out of our league.
  2. This is a bit of a disaster to say the least. I'd say this will be on par/similar to the Jay injury, I wouldn't expect to see him next season what so ever. So, we need a new GK. No doubts about that what so ever, as a club we kind of need to look at it that we don't have a GK, and get the best we can get. I don't think we need to look at this as a stop gap, we need a new No.1 keeper, full stop. What worries me is the fear we may stop-gap, like we did with Killer and Oakley. I honestly think the club have to be ruthless here and just go out there and spend $$$ on a brand new number 1, Fraser will have to fight his way back if he returns.
  3. Seeing as Pelle is our top goal scorer, Tadic is our highest assister, and Forster has 14 clean sheets to his name.......I'd say they've been pretty pivotal to where we are. Stop wumming.
  4. Everton are a funny side. They clearly do have some quality and should be doing better than they are, but there are a few positions (notably CB and GK) that are ready for an upgrade. I think, now that they've got a decent gap between them and the bottom 3, the pressure will drop on them a little. That should allow them to play with a bit more freedom as a team and the worry is that we will see the best of Everton over the coming weeks. I think we can win, but I think we can easily lose as well. If I was handed a draw, I'd take it.
  5. You're right in that the club had been trying to 'Evolve' the lambert position for a couple of seasons, but he was still a good player for us. Liverpool and Rogers just haven't used him right, as even in the few games he's had, it's been hoofed up to him like he's some sort of hit and hope target man, but his game is so much more than that. I reckon he'll pop up at Palace next year, and play up top with Zaha and Bolaise either side - that could be epic for Palace fans.
  6. I used to love Gerrard, excellent player in his pomp. But now, he's just a liability. He probably should have left last summer, as it's no surprise that their results picked up in his absence in my opinion. Lallana, well, he's not getting nice comments today. He's had a pretty underwhelming season all being told, but compared to our other 2 ex lads - he's been amazing. Lovren I couldn't give 2 hoots about, but one word comes to mind - karma. However, I can't help but feel a little sad seeing Rickie sat on the bench, week after week, just as a fan. He'll leave in the summer I'm sure and I hope he gets himself a good club, he has been horrifically treated by the idiot that is Rogers in my opinion.
  7. If we can get ourselves on an epic end of season run, which is possible as our fixtures aren't too bad, then we could place ourselves in an amazing situation. I don't believe Top 4 will happen, but I think we'll keep the dream alive for longer than most imagine. The spurs game is massive. I think the winner of that takes 6th, and possibly keeps themselves into contention for the top 4.
  8. The silence on Forster is deafening.
  9. He's got every right to be annoyed, having Danny Rose called up instead of him is simply ludicrous. The fact he wasn't in the original squad was stupid on it's own. It probably won't help him if he starts moaning via social media though, but who cares - he's better off out of that horror show.
  10. Continuously being a bit of a moron, I think. He's had a good innings to be fair.
  11. Man Utd are absolutely ripping them to pieces. They look amateurs. 1-0 Utd
  12. I think away from home, it's good to be able to stretch sides. Mane through the middle I think is his best role, he can play the flank roles, but through the middle he can be electric. He can then pull players around, which opens space down the sides. Pace is key here, so I can see us dropping Tadic and going for Elia as well.
  13. Henry was an amazing player, but by christ he is dull as ****. I fall asleep listening to him drone on. Just imagine a PL game with Owen as commentator and Henry as co-commentator. I think the nation would fall asleep.
  14. Pelle didn't do himself any favours y/day, that's for sure. Wouldn't expect to see him at Everton.
  15. The Liverpool and Rogers love in is the most nauseating thing I've ever had to sit through. Sky just lap it up. They seem to forget to mention the way he pretty much destroyed them at the start.
  16. It was alright, I just feel a bit down with the Fraser injury. It ain't good, we're looking at probably a year + I reckon. So, new keeper shopping list for the summer. 1st half was a bit rubbish, I think the entire team were rocked a bit by the severity of Frasers injury - but the 2nd half was better, we kept our nerve and dug it out - which is what you have to do against those sides. Kelv did well, but as we all know he is a terrific shot stopper. Will be interesting to see how he gets on for the rest of the season, not the ideal situation by any means, but I'd be gob smacked if we finish below 7th now (11 pt gap if you count the GD, 8 games to go). And if all goes to plan, 7th should get EL.
  17. Danny rose, are you kidding me? Even Spurs fans know he's horrific. Bertrand must have done something to upset the setup. But Shaw, seriously, injury-prone for good by the looks of it.
  18. More cringeworthy utter bull****. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3004908/Brendan-Rodgers-placed-trust-unfamiliar-3-4-3-formation-watching-Basle-beat-Liverpool-side.html Has he worked out yet why he ****ed their season up at the start? Doubt it. So to cut a long story short, he stumbled upon a formation by accident by copying the approach of a team who beat him. Genius I tell you. Genius.
  19. Yes, this is what I thought. As I only really remember him coming off the bench in most cases this season.
  20. Does that mean he posts on here?
  21. We will lose players in the summer, however it won't be like last year. For a start we have a stable management set-up, coaching set-up, and we're able to plan for next season. MP just strung us along for months and screwed up a lot of our plans I bet. But although it'll be sad at some points in the summer, I think we'll be excited by the replacements we manage to get. Come October next year, I'm sure we'll be missing the players we lose, but not in the way some expect.
  22. CB is pretty weak. Jones was supposed to be the main man, the leader for the next generation - but he's just not kicked on at all, the best thing he's known for are the faces he pulls! Stones is a terrific ball playing centre back, fan of him - but he's still a little raw around the edges. I think he'll be first choice in the coming years. But when you look down through the squads and the U21, it's a bit bare. English football in general is lacking up and coming 'international stars' I feel. Gerrard and Lampard were moaned about, but there's no one of their level coming through. Rooney is a bit of an idiot, but he's the only star in that side I can see. Maybe Sterling can become a top level. The rest are a bit bog standard. The days of Campbell, Rio, Neville, Cole, Beckham, Gerrard, Owen, Rooney seem a long time ago....players that could have, and did, play for some of the biggest European sides all over the world. That team should have done much more.
  23. I just don't feel that Shaw or Baines have played enough club football this season, they've been in and out. I think Baines has only just come back? I like Shaw a lot, but he's not done enough to be in this squad I don't believe. For me, there hasn't been a better English left back this season, on that basis I think it'll freshen it up with Bertrand. I'm all with the continuity side of it, but when it's all a bit underwhelming it's nice to freshen it up from time to time. I mean, Townsend, what is that all about?
  24. Foster is injured for a few months I think.
  25. No, this isn't a problem. The problem is picking players like Barkley, Carrick, Smalling, who have been trash this season. Well, maybe Carrick hasn't been trash - but he hasn't played enough for me.
