Indeed, he'd been warned verbally and then yellow limit orange carded, one more iffy challenge and he was toast. We need him on Wednesday to have a real midfield because JWP is absolute toss as a defensive player. In fact I don't think he's very good at all.
so we get someone in who isn't 18 and doesn't have bad games, it's what top teams do. Having a good back-up/concurrent would do Shaw the world of good.
yes he is, holding us together, doing 2 mens work if you ask me.
Anyway we need to inject some flair 2nd half, Gaston and Clyne on and JWP and Lambert off perhaps.
he's just showing that he's not worth what a lot of people seem to think he is. Not too bad today but certainly not good enough for Chelsea just now. We need a new LB let alone them.
Eagles should win but they were lamentably bad against the Boys last time and have off days often enough, like the Vikings game. I expect them to win but it wouldn't actually surprise me if they didn't.
who knows, 6 points between today and Wednesday(yeah right) might even see us field the first XI against Burnley who may just want to concentrate on their NPC championship battle because they've been slipping recently.
no, he's not tall enough. His biggest (and probably only) default is losing out in aerial duels when called upon, imagine moving that to CB, no thanks.
but why a new thread? People seem to be just obsessed by starting new threads instead of using the build up thread which would seem to be totally apt for the subjects posed. Mods really have to clamp down on new threads soon I think. No offence meant though Roger, it's just an annoying forum trend just now...well it annoys me anyway.
perhaps he thought the 5 minutes additional time excessive, which it was. Sunderland equalised with the clock showing 94 minutes and 53 seconds. Can't remember anything exceptional that warranted an extra 2 minutes over and above the sub times.
