What would be good is if you could give your assistant manager names of players to sell or loan and he gets on with it for you -

We have a pacey winger, not that we use one TBH niether is he any good. We play a compact 4222 formation, sometimes more like a 41212 but nevertheless very fluid, we gain most of our width from our full backs and attempt to gain control in the middle of the park. So what would a box to box midfielder actually do ? That said Cork or chappers could possibly do this role. Why does everyone bang on about a goalscoring midfielder aswell ? Guly and lallana both filled in with that role -

Improve what ? Why does everyone think teams can only play a standard 442 ? We dont Get over it -
Did he get his Tesco green points ?

If he was able to carry on his form from Manures CL final season then yes, fantastic player in the position he plays, dont listen to the mongs, his absence has seriously weakened United IMO. And if I remember rightly he didnt play the final against Barca.

Once again, Harry is not the clubs chairman, if they dont have the money they should not spend it Simples Plus its wildly regarded that he gets the best out of his players and is regarded as a great man manager, yeah he took us down but thats as much Lowes fault as the saggy chopped ***** Nevertheless he would have been the best choice for england for me.

Exactly, its important to not follow QPRs style, basically sign anyone with any prem experience, but sign hungry players that fit our style, we are a technically gifted team, with a good engine, and thats the sort of players we need. Tomkins Wheater Dann Davies Sol Bamba All better quality then Knight

Id look at Wheater, Reo-coker and Eagles, not saying sign them all but all are decent players at this level -

IMO our lack of pace cost us the title, we struggle with teams pressing us, and so they play with a high line, generally speaking that means we have no effective out ball, as we cant spring that. We all saw last week how slow Sharp is -
Very average player, yes he falls into the experienced bracket but just would not suit the way we play.
-
Lets all be honest though, with the exception of the vitriol held by us Harry was the first choice of many, well the vast majority of press, fans and players. He is a better man motivator arguably the int managers greatest tool considering the small time they have in contact with the players. Also he would have been afforded more time both by players and press. Im not too dissapointed with the roy appointment, I think he will do a steady job, we will probably get some rather dour football but then Sven was cagey and he had arguably our better tournament in recent history. I just think the FA and in particular the only football man on the panel have both bottled it and let previous get in the way. Forba cheaper yes man. All in all I am dissapointed, but then this is the FA

I have baggsied that recommendation already limpy -
The problem with renewables regarding Tidal/wind etc is the fact that your relying on uncontroleable factors, not only that but generally speaking it creates dirty power (no im not explaining) and so you have to spend on infrastructure to convert it back. The waste also isnt as bad as the tree huggers make out, and Chernobyl was more to do with them getting more out of the plant then was safe. Its also raining again

We should have embraced nuclear long ago, but too many people are scared of it
-
What would happen when the 'pipe' started leaking ? Lets not talk Wind turbines, we are setting ourselves up for a fall, despite the fact they will pay for my pension.
-
It most certainly would cost vastly more than that, and would take years Edit - actually it might not, but one would argue if they ploughed that expense into fixing the leaks they may not even need it

Pogba is going to Juve afaik, even if Park leaves it will be to a team in Europe. Norwich got it right with a player like Johnson, hungry, athletic. -
And how exactly do you propose building a ****ing pipe from north to south oh great one ? Wow us with your worldly knowledge

He probably said "will everyone stop picking on Andy please"
