Lake Bells tits

Might as well get something back...

If they are also getting dempsey and we fail to bring anyone in our derbys could get a bit close for my liking...

Its the 27th. This window has " couldnt quite get it over the line" written all over it...

Didnt rile me at all, imitiation is the highest form of flattery

Same way we are in for debauchy douglas and carroll now I reckon

Interested in the confiscated goods J69?

So Jonas is our creative answer then? Marveaux has played one game in 18 months, And Simpson and Santon might be able to do it occationally against relegation fodder? Doesnt sound like a solution to me. My point stands.

Raved Santon looks a decent prospect because he is more promising going forward than Simpson. Defensibly and in general he is nothing more than "ok" so far. He is not a finished prospect though, which is what gives him a bit of slack.

Go back to your molten pork pies

Perhaps I should have added "successfully".

Our summer window on the back of a top-5 season is just shocking. Opportunity missed, Liverpool have strengthened considerably - so have sunderland and a host of other clubs. REALLY thought we would strengthen our defence.. still a CB and a RB short - ideally I would want another LB too. Santon really isnt that good.

I cannot fathom how we can spend 7 million on a guthrie and fail to spend 6 on debauchy....

They will come back 1% bigger ant - just eat like a spakker after workouts

Having Simpson on the pitch regardless of opposition is a huge liability, as he always needs nannying. However if there is one player on the pitch i dont want grafting around our own box - its Ben Arfa. Having him cover Simpson is like cutting your hand off to stop a finger bleeding. Shuts down our entire attack basically. He is the only one able to link up and running the channels unfortunately. With him tracking back so much we have ZERO threat on the counter - only Ba and Cisse which as much as I rate them doesnt look very threatening unless you hand them the ball in the box..

So we stick our best player by a landslide on him as a personal marker?

Simpson is there, why is it exposed? Is he not good enough to do his job in the position he is holding down? The last thing HBA should be assigned to do is babysit Danny Simpson, he is an attacking winger - not a DM.

: P Good mom you are! Remember bring sugarfree drinks and carrots - be responsible

Read about that lass who nearly died due to having her throat cut by her boyfriend. Poor girl, if I knew who that bloke was ( even if I was his mate) Id go over to his house and make sure he never did that again

FYP

He has done the same thing several time further up the pitch, in Hatems case it doesnt make a difference

maybe is because he is going past 5 players in our own half rather than in the oppositions penalty box because he is told to track back...

Well Joe cole is on 110.000 grand a week, Joey barton is on what - 80? Swansea absolutely rinced Arsenal and a few other top-4 clubs last season while being paid peanuts. Chelsea aside from Hazard didnt impress me at all - we just gave them far too much respect and time on the ball. Fullbacks are relatively cheap to buy and if we dont have ones who can handle a bit of heat on their own, then what the fuck are they doing in our first 11. Being stuck with Simpson through 4 transfer windows even though he constantly needs nanny`ing is just unfuckingbelieveable. EIther tell him to sort it out or replace him with someone who can. He is dragging the whole right side and team down with his inability to cover his own fucking position. Santon is better going forward but has huge issues defensibly as well. With williamson sniffing around a CB spot our defense looks 1 injury away from being in shambles for yet another season. Transfer window are turning into a farce sadly. Sorry for the rant.

Joe allen - I dont get the hype. Yes, tidy player. Good movement, keeps it simple, but is it really hard to get those stats when all you is recycle possession and hit 5 yard side-passes? If any of his passes had proper penetration i would be impressed. Still, he looks decent. Dont know if he is a 15 million solution to a 20 million problem though ( henderson)

Its boils down to this: No matter where you deploy him, handing him the ball will result in him going past 2-3 players ( or more) and serving up a quality pass. The fact that you can hear pardew belting out to pass it and still have him go on yet another brilliant raid just proves my point along with quotes from the gaffer himself. Like it is now that is most likely to be right in front of simpson and he will be out of options some 40 yards from goal with neither Ba nor Cisse good enough at linking up / running the channels. We need to let this tracking back thing go, we dont need our entire attacking line-up track back. Ben Arfa is good enough to do it and he does brilliantly whatever task you hand him, but thats due to no other fact that certain players are just quality nomatter where you deploy them. As Tecato said, he needs a team built around him - but he also needs to be let go of his defensive duties. Its that simple.

Pardew is that you? He needs a free role further up the pitch without defensive responsibilites, not endless graft. We have plenty of grafters, and zero creativity aside from HBA. He needs to be the linkup, vs chelsea we saw him sit deep go past 5 players and still lack options because he was too far away from goal and there is noone else there aside from cisse and ba hiding. As long as we use him in anything else than a Silva/Nasri role, we arent seeing the best of him. Yes there will be matches where he doesnt contribute much, and there will be matches where he scores and sets up two others. I admire Pardews man management skills, but his tactical skills are often a bit too cowardly for my liking. Less worry and more go please.
