From watching the match so far I'd quite like us to look into signing Bong (Not just because of his name). Seems to be really good at running up and down the pitch and quite a powerful runner too. Could be a bit suspect positionally but good competition for Santon and at times if Debuchy ever gets injured or suspended Santon could be shifted to the right. No doubt it won't happen though as that would mean we'd start building a squad.

You'd really hope we'll learn from the position we've put ourselves in & actually start building a team that can sustain competitiveness.

 

I nearly pulled a muscle cringing when Pardew came out having a go at the youth players.

Needs emphasising. Not saying it's entirely down to complacency or anything like that but Cisse regardless of the way he plays is guaranteed a starting spot at the moment. Santon is the same. With Steven Taylor out Williamson is in the same position too.

Was it youth players?

 

There's a load of them the same age, around 21, who aren't delivering. That's the same age as Santon who has been one of the first names on the team sheet all season.

 

I think some of those 'kids' do need a rocket up their arse if they aren't busting a gut to grasp the opportunity.

 

If it was aimed at younger lads like streete and Campbell then it would be a cock move.

Agreed, nothing cringeworthy about it. There's an enormous amount of rubbish spouted about what managers say and what players need to hear in private/public. 'He needs an arm around the shoulder' etc tends to be nonsense as its only sometimes true. People are more complex than that.

To sum up, we're selling Ben ArfA, Coloccini, Krul & Santon, with Cabaye, Cisse & Debuchy (who's shit anyway) going in the summer when we get relegated.

 

There's non-one coming in to replace any of these departures.

Not looking cushty right now, but deals are being worked on apparently. Personally think it's gonna be Ohthemwingseh. :lol:

 

Thuvin and DeJong won't be moving till the summer. Been offerred Graham for £3m. :case:

 

We really need at least 2 players a Fwd and a CD.

 

S'hamton and Qpr are building momentum and even with beating Reading this looks like a long fight.

If we really have been offer DG for £3mil we would be mad to turn it down. The Mackems spent £14mil on a worse striker

We don't really do squad building. Tends to be one in, one out as far as the first team is concerned. I'm struggling to remember the last time we had two left-footed left backs on the books.
