Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I agree. Keep Campbell around this season and concentrate in getting Ince. If another striker becomes available then I hope we'd be active. Read above mate, papers linking us more with Downing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 downing fuck off useless wee scroat that he is, never ever crosses, always cuts inside being a greedy cunt, trying to hit some speculative effort. HIs assists are like a goalkeepers I reckon... Without looking it up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Downing seems unlikely. Maybe we're feigning an interest for some reason but I can't see it making sense financially to ashley. Am hoping it's just Liverpool trying to drum up interest/agent-talk. Don't get me wrong, he's not that bad, but for the money I reckon we could do better and I'd love for us to get a younger English player like Ince or Sinclair. Seems like ages since we properly invested in British youth (albeit at 24 Sinclair is pushing anyone's definition of youth). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2207 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) I'm with you MT I'd rather have someone younger with more potential. Downing will never get any better than he is now imo. Still managers under pressure would rather buy seasoned players on big wages I guess...that's why he strikes me as more of a fat sam signing Edited August 5, 2013 by Kitman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 With the possibility of decent overlapping fullbacks (at last) we don't need this wingers bollocks...With the bonus fullbacks are always picked up late whereas wingers tend ot get marked/kicked.

Kid Dynamite 7182 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 You keep saying that, so for how long did we persist with that tatic?... One game. The clues in the bit where I said 'one game' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil 6 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Got a strong feeling Pardew will be all about 442 next season unfortunately. I thought we played 442 because of a promise made to ba, so he wouldn't leave last summer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 If we go 4-4-2 it means that Jonas will definitely start and Cabaye will become anonymous in CM because of a lack of options around helping him, and the other team more than likely playing 3 CM's. Hopefully Pardew has learnt that from last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty84 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Doesn't improve our first team. He would have been a good asset last season with our Europa League commitments, but if he is looking to get regular first team performance, I can't see Pardew starting him week in week out with the likes of Arfa and now Remy competing for similar positions.

PaddockLad 17698 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Liverpool at home iirc Shola unused sub in that game. I remember one game where we may have eneded up with Shola in a wide posistion after a couple of substitutions but its a pretty weak thread to hang anyone with tbh. Pardew is limited to say the least but perprtuating petty myths about the bloke is unfair iyam and strolling into CT terrortory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17698 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Downing,Sinclair,Ince.... all play wide-ish on the left? that says 442 to me, with Jonas as a squad player. Think 442 would be a backwards step tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not perpetuating a myth about Pardew, he did play Shola wide right one game. Probably the most ridiculous managerial decision I've ever seen at the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
