What did he do ? (or was it the C celebration again).

Did a sly elbow on an opponent moments after another player had got a yellow for exact same thing.

Ah yes he tends to do such things; a shame because he is a good player when he can control himself. Has always done it though; he even calmed down a bit since he's gone to Engeland.

Was just about to post the same. I was on the Maguire bandwagon last year as well, but people said he was poor because he played for Hull. Then we go sign Sunderland's keeper and a Burnley center back, and they've both been great. Maguire and Keane could've played very well together for a long time.

Like you lot I was banging the drum for Maguire having seen him loads of times at the KCom.
Time to let it go people, much as it hurts.

You still need someone who can run passed defenders, be on the shoulder, be able to break away quick.

That United side had Rashford, Martial, Lukaku, Pogba over 90mins to work off less paced players Mata and Mkhitaryan - the more intelligent players.

We tend to play with a front three lacking pace. Lookman and Lennon are really the two that offer that, but are squad players. Mirallas is too hot and miss also

I think you misunderstand me mate. I never said we should play like United. We can't do that as we don't have their pace up front as you say. I'm saying that we should play with a similar high tempo as them. We don't need players who are extremely rapid to play that way. We just need speed of thought, quick passing, good movement and heavy pressing when not in possession.

I got that. But you still need that player who can break the lines and cap off that tempo.

You'll be hard pressed to find one of the top side's that doesn't have one of two players that round off that high tempo.

If not, you'll just end up like a Tony Pulis side.

LOL.

He got booted out of Inter after two weeks too.

No mate. You can't see what I'm trying to say. The highlighted bit confirms that. Let's just leave it there eh.

LOL. When El Spaniard first went he was my first choice too. Glad it's not me making these decisions.

He's always lacked one....

Abraham is very raw but that was a very good finish.

 

[Alan Whittle]

Oh well, The Mail!!

Past the newstand this morning and the S*n proclaimed "Palace Attack". To be honest I don't believe them as, after 3 games, we've yet to see a decent shot on target.

 

[a bell maul]

He's half man, half duck lol

...like Francis Drake...
