Foot Long Hot Dog
Player Valuation: A packet of pork scratchings
I've always thought he is a yard dog at best, so yeah, probably. Head to the vaults my friend.
You really should take up knitting or something.

Well he's hardly Paolo Maldini now, is he? If his best attributes are throwing himself in front of the ball and making last-ditch tackles, rather than having a cool head and being composed on the ball, I'd describe him as more of a yard dog than a fine ball-playing centre back.You really should take up knitting or something.

Yes. Simples.
It is a forum, a place to debate, vent ones anger yet again at being let down, if you dont think it should be here become a MOD and tell us please what we can and cant place on the forum.........
After previously stated, just having a rant because feel let down again......
Cheer up, dont like it, dont read........................
Jesus, so far we have 'Not that far from dreaded relegation','Game management','So called tactical geniuses','knee-jerking about our defense' and 'negative fans' alongiside old classics like the 'Who's wearing the mask?' thread. Do we need this thread?
Please don't misplace ellipsis at the end of your sentences. Yours sincerely, a MOD![]()
No mate. He had them moving the ball about last season fine. They had real zip in the passing and that's missing this year - principally because we have a back line so ponderous and lacking in confidence. Barkley is also key to this. We lack pace and power without him.I agree with you about his transfer market nouse.
As a coach do you think he would be better suited to la liga where its played at a different tempo.
He does come across too nice and dare I say it not strong enough but like you say maybe he is different away from the media.
Oh you're SUCH a Graaaaaaaamer Queen .........
It's a stringent written examination to become a mod.
Yeah I agree about ross but if we miss him that much surely he should try something different because its not working at the moment.No mate. He had them moving the ball about last season fine.

Some of us don't even get to sit this elitist examination that's only available in the nave of Kings College.
I'd shift Mirallas into the void left by Barkley. I realise that the Naismith cult would look on that dimly, but to me he's always a second striker and he's about as useful as a chocolate fire guard to us in an acm position.Yeah I agree about ross but if we miss him that much surely he should try something different because its not working at the moment.
With the back line defenders normally don't like keeping the ball so it baffles me this season why we play so much in our own half
Yeah I could see kev there or I suppose stevie p when fitI'd shift Mirallas into the void left by Barkley. I realise that the Naismith cult would look on that dimly, but to me he's always a second striker and he's about as useful as a chocolate fire guard to us in an acm position.
Put McGeady on the left and atsu right....or even Lukaku on the right and Eto'o as the forward.
