August 11, 201214 yr Re Holding midfielder. We'll end with someone from a lower league club who no one has heard of.
August 11, 201214 yr Author simon cox signing for forest today for £2million. re the central midfield post,agree totally with casino on this. we're certainly threadbare in that department,got to get at least 1 further quality player in there. imagine the scenario this time next week if we don't sign anybody,then wake up to hear the news that mark davies has signed for the jacks. that would seriously leave us in the shit
August 11, 201214 yr Author man city turned down bid of £40million for balotelli from PSG. That's serious money for such a problematic person,i'd have snatched their hands off for that amount of dough nixon says there's a couple of articles re us in tomorrow's paper,but not holding out hope that any further recruits will be added by next week,so here's the team i expect to start at turf moor BOGDAN RILEY--------------------MILLS------------REAM------------------RICKETTS CHUNGY----------------------ANDREWS---------DAVIES-------------------------PETROV DAVIES-------------SORDELL SUBS -- LONERGAN,MEARS,KNIGHT,EAGLES,VELA,ALONSO,OFOBE, More than enough to do the job in hand

August 11, 201214 yr Author I take it you did not see Kevin Davies turgid display last night even the bucket man can run quicker. was he that bad pal ? i'll start with him for his experience,if he as bad as claimed,get the youth straight on

August 11, 201214 yr Playing with 2 out and out wingers plus Mavies in the middle is a recipe for disaster, we will get smashed in midfield
August 11, 201214 yr Playing with 2 out and out wingers plus Mavies in the middle is a recipe for disaster, we will get smashed in midfield If he can't put his foot in even to a basic level then suprisingly he wont be playing for England or a big team in his lifetime. Im sick to death of all these mark davies excuses. (not from you danny, im talking in general) his ability to tackle isnt a problem, i actually think he does more defensively than he does attacking wise. he is a central midfielder he can tackle None of these excuses used are the problem. The problem is, hes being labelled as a key man going forward and he doesnt do it consitently enough. If those with an irrational hated of owen coyle took a step back and had a look, we are much better playing 442 than 451.
August 11, 201214 yr If he cant play in a 442 then hes not the player you lot think he is hes not a 4,6, 8 or even a fucking 2 million pound player. he is a central midfielder he is FACT just accept it. Coyle, Megson, Mick McCarthy & Nigel Pearson. They all wernt wrong. Why are Swansea trying to sign him to replace joe allen ffs and if anyone tells me hes the same sort of player as Van der Vaart again
August 11, 201214 yr I want to see Sordell and Afobe start up front, Sordell looks like a great link up man and battler whilst Afobe is our only out and out striker. Lets hope he gets the goals. LCY and Petrov are a given and rightly so. That leaves 2 from Mark Davies, Prately, Andrews and Vela. The numbers are right, 4 for 2 places is about right especially with holden due back but the current 4 all seem attacking to me. We need to get a ball winner in and fuck one of the above off. Until that point who would be the best pair to do both a defense and attack job? Fucked if I can find a 2 I am happy with. I would have to go Andrews and mark Davies. If these two are our first choice in the middle though I think automatic will be out of reach by Xmas. Not enough balance. In defence it's a much of a muchness, one from Alonso/Ricketts - Riley/Mears and any two from Knight/Mills/Ream. Cigarette paper between them. Ow and Bogdan in goal Edited August 11, 201214 yr by birch-chorley

August 11, 201214 yr Early signs, reckon Bogdan could be under threat from Lonegran. The main problem for our defence now is ricketts. Hes our best defender but the way owen has shaped the squad and the emergence of Riley, his number 1 position is now left back and I dont like him there. I like Mears/riley/rickets at right back I like alonso at left back But i dont like rickets at left back. Anyway, it is what it is. I think owen goes with Mills and Knight with ream on the bench. Whiever it is i hope he sticks with the two until one is injured or suspendes, i do not want to see chopping and changing until we get a clean sheet. Pick your two and stick with them until you are forced to bring the other in. Upfront, i think we all agree sordell starts. After that its 1 from 3 or even 2. Will he play Davies? I think he will, but not sure if thats right or wrong to be honest. We all know Ngog is better, but does being captain/leader outweigh the difference in ability? Again though, i dont want a different 2 every game, pick your best 2 and stick with them until you are forced to change. Wings are sorted, as are andrews and mavies, the latter doesnt get a another full season of excuses though. Get your head down and do it, you aint one for the future anymore. The last one is eagles deserves to start, but dont see how he can. Hopefully he spends the season fighting to make the starting XI as the rest are playing really well and we have a bit of luck with injuries and suspensions. Trying to to think about holden as it aint looking good.
August 11, 201214 yr Early signs, reckon Bogdan could be under threat from Lonegran. I've never been overly impressed with Bogdan, so hopefully he can come good this year. I hope that Lonergan has been brought in to compete for a starting place and not just as an automatic benchwarmer.

August 11, 201214 yr I'm hearing from a good source Chung yong has a clause where he gets hefty appearance money and expect Eagles to be first choice as money is tight, Davies will leave this week, Eddie is clearing the decks and overheads as he wants to sell up, sorry to be the bearer of bad news it's just what I'm being told.
