  1. Hants bowlers now getting savaged as per usual, we need to break this 5th wicket partnership before too much damage is done. Can we sign any new bowlers or is there a TW in cricket now as well ?
  2. Di Santo and Figueroa will be very much in demand.
  3. Ah no, no miracle, we got smashed about and Kent declared at 300 odd for 7, now Hants are 20/2 in reply.McKenzie to the rescue again?
  4. In the immortal words of Stiffler...f*ck no
  5. Adidas are still willing to rook you 85 dollars for it though.
  6. play has now started and Kent are at 172/5, if only we can finish them off quickly without any tail wagging at all we may well be in with a chance.
  7. Tackles pretty well actually, or did the other day anyway.
  8. so then are we still definitely signing someone tomorrow ? Don't mean future Yeovil players for the academy.
  9. no Ramirez likes to play as the furthest back of the 3 actually. He likes to play deep and either burst forward or play the ball forward.Deep, like centre circle, he can see the whole pattern like a quarterback. We didn't know how to use him and wasted his energy trying to turn him into some sort of wide man. Lallana needs to be given just a back up role because Lallana and Gaston in the same side will never work.
  10. He isn't exceptionally good and he gets sent off a lot. Has no control over his temper if I recall correctly.
  11. Jos is a better player probably. Anyway if you're looking at defenders from Lyon Umtiti is the kiddy you want, good at CB and very very comfortable at LB as well. Only 19
  12. Aulas and Cortese haggling over a player sale...should get done at about the turn of the next century then.With a bit of luck he should be available for his first sending off in a Saints shirt before retirement age...won't happen.
  13. Fenerbahce are only offering them 12 million euros so i expect Benfica would be quite pleased if we offered them 18 million € then.
  14. Belhanda just isn't in the same class as Gaston, trouble is unless we can get all there is out of either of them the question becomes academic. We need better players in front of either of them to see their real utility. Gaston and Suarez, probably one of the most lethal combinations you'll ever see but until we have a player who can move and keep the ball like Suarez Gaston will never be seen in his best light. Belhanda has had a pretty poor season this year, take Giroud away from him and it's not the same player.
  15. so if we were to sell Punch to Palace giving him a new contract in fact just had the effect of making us 3 million £ less whatever we may have paid him in terms of a signing bonus. That is called money for old rope, it would eventually have cost us very little and brought a fair bit in. Any player who can score goals in the PL should never be left in an out of contract situation unless he's on more salary than he's worth, which wouldn't be the case for Punch. Gaston had a great (half) game for Uruguay the other day, lovely diagonal ball that set up Suarez's goal plus some good tackling and ball recovery in midfield and a few really good runs and a couple of decent shots. If he has a decent game again tonight and shows up in the Conferderations Cup then we'll have no trouble getting a packet for him.I'd regret that because he is the type of player to take us forward but he needs ability,that we don't yet have, in front of him.
  16. strange sleeves, look like they've been tacked on as an afterthought.
  17. AS Rome is part owned by a bank you know, perhaps he's been visiting some of his old aquaintances down that way. Anyway the Naples president has been saying that he offered 40 million euros to Unicredit (Roma) for Lamela and another player but Roma only wanted to let him have Osvaldo but as he has Cavani he doesn't need him.
  18. but he wasn't, the only time he actually played RB was when we switched Clyne to the left. On all other occasions Maya or Corky filled in at RB I think.
  19. Takes penalties so you can shave a few goals off from his total if you want to compare him to any of our existing MF on goals. Got at least 3 from pens so that puts him on a par with Gaston and Morgan and below Punch. 10 yellows and a red make him a not very exciting prospect.
  20. I can see at least 2 reasons for this not happening Too old and not good enough, think we'll be signing a first choice LB anyway..
  21. which is evident from the photo showing the 2 charts above, not the same graphology.
  22. excellent but Deschamps helped by selecting a total oaf at CB just because he plays for Porto or Benfica or whatever it is, there are far better CBs than Mangala to choose from but unfortunately for them they don't play in the CL.
  23. half (or even 3 quarters) of a PL side got us 2 back to back promotions...very little to do with Adkins.
  24. perhaps they'll take the pair of them in part exchange for Denilson who they must be desperate to get rid of. Wenger works on a "if he's got boots sign him system" and then sifts through the rubbish he's bought hoping to find a nugget. Sort of scout's jumble sale policy. As he eventually finds players he can get 4 or 5 good years out of and then sell them to Utd and Citeh at 500% profit it obviously works on occasions and pays for all of the failures.
