Gemmill 46195 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Zog and Taylor dropped. Fair enough the N'Zogbia thing like - Duff's the better player. Bit of a toss-up between Taylor and Bramble though IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 529 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I reckon we'll get stuffed tbf tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10978 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'm looking for performance rather than result here. That's pretty much our first choice team so I want to seen organisation and cohesion at the back, invention and effort in the center of the park and finally movement and foresight up front. I expect to be disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM4 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 I also expect a lot of pathetic antics from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46195 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I reckon we'll get stuffed tbf tbh 171055[/snapback] Probably. Might do us good to get a bit of a chasing though from a fitness perspective, which is all that really matters here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 175 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I want to see Luque and Shola put on a good display and get in the goals, it seems we'll be needing them both to be in top form this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adios 717 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Booted up the old Digibox and the FTV card is still working, chuffed! Off to watch it on Five now. I'm sure you all needed to know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 The Nordy: "He's been over and back to Holland, I hope that's in search of a striker". Is he suggesting the Roedster likes a bit of a smoke or the prossies a bit too much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombadil 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I want to see Luque and Shola put on a good display and get in the goals, it seems we'll be needing them both to be in top form this season. 171060[/snapback] Same here, hopefully we will put in a good performance and hopefully Luque will score - at best, it will mean he's found a bit of form and at worst, one or two Spanish clubs may become interested.

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Have to say credit to both teams for tryign to play some attractive passing football to feet and no dirty or cynical tackles at all. Plus Shola continues his impressive scoring record under Roeder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I think Villareal and PSV will have been good warm up games as they are clearly better than the majority of the prem an will get us up to speed better than a few games against shite opposition.

Guest Patrokles Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Although we haven't been brilliant, I do hope that Emre's display hasn't gone unnoticed amongst some people who seem to think he's a luxury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
