  1. Fuller and Crouch were also given a tough time by the morons. It also came at a time when the fans felt cheated by not replacing top players leaving with unknown or lesser quality
  2. jay rod has been talking about going to Spurs for a long time, before the season finished. That is according to someone who is doing work for him
  3. I agree Pelle needs time, and the morons who make a quick judgement on him need to give him some space
  4. I was talking about under MP , I have not seen or heard of our new style of play
  5. The atmosphere was bound to be poor. In the main the fans are p####d off and it is hard to be upbeat about playing WBA
  6. That's a shame, if inMay we were told on here you could have Long for 16m or Welbeck for 15 m I doubt many would have voted for Long. It is madness, we could have tied him in on the Shaw deal.
  7. I al ways find the Plan B thing a nonsense. The 3 best teams in my lifetime who were successful played the same way until the final whistle. don Revies. Leeds, Liverpool in the 80s and Man Utd. They believed in their system and kept going until the final whistle, hence their late goals to win matches. MP played a fantastic system for us, but needed some more personnel to just make us that little better
  8. The catalyst of this was NC leaving. I seem to recall he was unsettled quite sometime before there was talk of not being given investment and so may have served his notice. Of course this is only my view and I have no proof. that event started the rest of the dominoes to fall. The players rightly or wrongly went with the dream and were on board. We were only 2or 3 players from being a really good side. As for players leaving, yes I think some still would have gone eg Shaw. RL may have also but his obvious love of our club would still made him think twice, even though it is Liverpool. He was at the early part of our rise back and perhaps may have liked to been there for even more. Many of the posters n here may dislike Cortese but MP and the majority of the squad did and they bought into the way we were going . Watch Spurs playing their good passing football yesterday did make me regret how things have panned out, it should still be us playing that game good on the eye
  9. Watching Spurs yesterday ,you can see them developing already. MS will still want to be a part of it IMO.
  10. not always. Football is opinions and so different people rate different players. If they are wearing a Saints shirt. I won't boo them.

    why does it have to be written ? She changed the set up at the top, and there was a change of direction.
  13. when you have RVP and Rooney taking all the best space and their individual glory , his stats are not that bad.especially with the way Utd were last season. He is as good a star player we will ever buy now

    Bloody iPad, I try and press a thread and it goes to view a posters profile! So many on here must think I'm stalking them as I visit their profile page lol. As for the predictive stuff, how it can ever predict the c### I put up ,
  15. Olson is a decent defender, he has kept many good attackers in his pocket over the years.
  16. Do you honestly believe Galagher will become a better player than Welbeck?

    so the stance we took with MS could not be replicated ?

    it seems to me the owner is downsizing, had she not changed the clubs direction, it could have been different of course. we are her plaything and so have to put up with it as it is her inheritance.
  19. Ok thanks, I will need that one, on many occasions in the future

    Could we not have done so to Lovren as well?
  21. Ok , but Ralf did say we would spend all the transfer money in. Lol I expect he would be bought for 5-8 m now What does IIRC mean?

    You forgot NC in that list.
  23. pelle needs to be given time. Too many expect him to score straight away.Has he had a clear chance yet? As for Wanyama, I have seen how good he is all along, and praised him

    but he is right, the team bond cannot be bought. As Rickie said 'it could have been so different'
  25. I don't see why nobody has snapped him up
