Still a cock though
-
Id happily take either. But Im not getting hung up on what the general consensus is, Ive formulated my own opinion. Bentekkers reminds me of a young Drogba, has all the attributes to make it except for experience, there genuinely is nothing wrong with his technique in similar ways to Welbeck and Lukaku, they all just need to hone their skills, know when to do things and when not to. If we sign any of those three Ill be very happy, good luck getting anyone better IMO
-
Theres a tweet going around that we are exploring the possibility of signing Benteke. Now that would be a hell of a signing, unfortunately out until Jan with a knee injury but if we could get him cut price ? Wow I honestly think he is a better player than lukaku who unfortunately has found himself playing in a poor side

My mate mentioned messi, which mates him more ambitious than yours
-
Hull, swansea and west ham all have started well, its early on in the window though. Villas policy is utterly terrible
-
Everton got to personal terms stage a while ago apparantly, but that was about a month
-
Haha Basically, getting some serious splitters
-
Im pretty sure nobodys just looking for anything. Its not like the new board have hit the ground running, perhaps there was nothing they could do with players leaving but regardless it happened under their watch. Can you imagine the crap on here if it happened under NC ? Regardless, most are just adding everything up. Ill make my mind up at the end of the window

Exactly, annoys me how clueless people are in regards to not only Morgan but positions and tactics ! He is there to win the ball, to hustle and to begin moves. He is phenominal, a beast, and vastly underated IMO. If he does go to a top club he will very much get the praise he deserves. He isnt there for goals, thats what the front 3-4 are there for, he is there to enable them to play, to move the ball from a deep position once won into positions that the team can penetrate in. He is there to stop counter attacks, to cover the defenders as our full backs push on. So know, he isnt there to score 8-12 goals (which is Touresque levels), in fact you would struggle to get a player of that ability and it simply wouldnt fit our system You moron (not you faraway)

There are agendas both sides of the board arguement Dunc, Im not going to get into an arguement with you about anything, but laying cards on the table you are pro the new shape and I was pro NC (for the footballing side, nothing else) all Im saying is theres so many on here that dismiss things to suit agendas. Theres no point in that, Id rather have both sides of the story and know the shape of things. Its painfully obvious to me that things were bad, hence an exodus, I get the players leaving for CL and obviously a lot of that is to do with it, but the manner of exit speaks volumes. Regardless now, things seem to be moving forward, hopefully we are over the wave and calmer waters are approaching. I think the new board were niave more than anything, time will always tell though. Jury is still out for me, but Im happy to give them time

Exactly, blokes a cock and always has been. Bridger was a gent though
-
So its negative so it has to be nonsense ? Righto
-
Which is a relief, bullet dodged there Really dont get the attraction, he barely plays for Utd
-
Thatll be a top signing, especially with Cresswell. Should do ok this year
-
So what were the alternatives cloughie ?

Dusan Tadic - DONE DEAL, official and everything

You are you going on about you tit ? Barely any deals have happened yet, mainly because of some football tournament you may not be aware of going on in Brazil. Still, this ones complete Get over it -
One tw5ts at the back One tw5ts near the frooont Lovren and lallana We think your both c5nts
-
I knew someone would say that and realistically yes it is, they'll always be anomalies on that front and perhaps even stature front (i.e utd this year) however generally the bigger teams will have the better set ups.
-
Well.... It isnt, its to ensure the top players are being tested on the biggest domestic stage and realistically surrounded by better players and better coaches. Thats just the reality of the situation. You dont become an international powerhouse fielding players from the bottom half of the prem Im afraid
-
Which is why I think we are able to perhaps hold onto him for a further year. This year isnt a vital year as far as championships are concerned. The other thing, for me, is if we sell Shaw, Lallana and Lovren all around 25-30m how much is Morgan worth !!!
-
A few people I know with lines into the club have openly said that Crook does not know what he is talking about and the Mirror (crook included) are not a paper the club 'uses'. In fact, the exact words used were 'i wouldnt believe a word those papers say, its probably old news anyway' So I think its a reasonable assumption that crook is a tit, plenty of better hants based journos out there

Theres no onus of proof anywhere you tit, this isnt court Id say that in balance the new board has ultimately proven to have more failings then achieved anything positive. Fans openly criticising ST costs, a player exodus that doesnt look like stopping, losing our manager and no players currently inbound. Still, we have our stripes I suppose. -
