What an absolute fuckin shambles! Get some subs on ffs!

Sing you fuckin robots, sing!!!!

Mourinho nearly bought Gerrard whilst at Chelsea first time round
he obviously thought they could play together
Maybe playing Makelele behind them would have made it work?

It's oversimplified this for me. Lee has struggled since being injured. I don't think any manager can wave a magic wand and restore him to where he was.
Mark Davies hasn't been fit and has had several injuries. Again I don't think it's down to a manager as to why he has not been effective for the past two years.
I didn't say it was, what I'm saying is even when fit they have both been below their best for some time & I'm sure it's a confidence issue due to their respective problems. I would expect Dougie to get them firing again if they can stay fit as he did with Davies last season to be fair...he seemed to have got his hunger back towards the end of the season.

We have ended up where we are with Lee and Davies at the club.
Apparently on paper they are a class above anything in this league,yet with them at the club we have spent the past 3 seasons in a decline and not many clubs have come beating the door down for their signatures.
Get shut and If we can get some money for the pair of em ill be over the moon and we can carry on building a team for the championship,not a pair of lightweight,injury prone premiership failures.
It's a fair enough argument Gonzo, however if they can be kept fit I would expect a decent manager to be able to get them playing to somewhere near their true potential.

They might not be the best in the world, but they are/were the best we had.
Ryan Giggs was a brilliant footballer, but hasn't shone in a major tournament.
I never spotted that one....quality argument for the defence.
-
There's no doubting the likes of Beckham, Gerrard & Lampard had talent I just feel they have been over-hyped, they hardly shone in major tournaments for their country.

The guy didnt just a win a load of caps. He was England captain and finished our most capped outfield player ever.
He played for the best in Europe and won a gazillion honours along the way.
All those managers that picked him didn't all over indulge him did they?
I've never heard about him rooming on his own at tournaments before,but they all room on their own now so maybe he had an idea.
Sure as fuck I wouldn't want to room with any fucker whilst away from home.
All about opinions like you say but he never let us down on the pitch and I've give my right arm for a leader like him out there at this tournament.
We've got Gerrard!.....See I never saw Beckham as a leader. Terry Butcher, Bryan Robson yes, they would drag people along with them but Beckham wasn't that kind of captain.
-
As has been said many times it's all about opinions...Phil Neville won 60 odd England caps whilst he was a bit part player for the filth so he must have been one of the best players in the country Shirley?
-
I'm not saying he was a bad player but he was overly indulged imo, a Captain should engender a strong bond between his squad but him being allowed special treatment put paid to that. However that was the fault of a poor managerial appointment.
-
I for one....& there are many others think Scholes was a better player than Gerrard, still it's all about opinions
-
Beckham is included because imo the baggage he brought with him far outweighed his ability & the Captain having a seperate room whilst others share is not condusive to a happy camp during a tournament. Too many players having there egos massaged by the likes of Sven for my liking.
-
Anewman wants a Dougie out seat!
-
Oddly enough (not) the best midfielder of that generation was the one who was moved about to accommodate the so called world class players....just coincidence that he was also the least egotistical?
-
Beckham is a God on here
His mrs is a dog
-
Must agree there Pabbers, problem is who would fulfil the role if not Gerrard? He is, like Beckham, an urban myth...for every 50 yard pinpoint pass there are at least half a dozen that needlessly waste possession.

Had Day e/w at 25s so managed a gentle profit

Fiddling the unemployment stats has been going on since the 80's, nothing new there.
More or else every indicator you can think of shows the economy is on an upward trajectory, I can certainly see it in my field.
Glad to know the farming industry is booming then...
-
We are a much better team to watch now than for many years, no world beaters but capable of upsetting any team on our day....capable of losing to the odd shit team too mind.
