Accidentally deleted it so carry on...

Is Nolan out of contract at the end of the season? Only on the bench for West Ham today.

I agree with you on that Mounts - but I don't entirely trust our three central defenders on their own merits. That's not to say they are crap, they aren't - but I don't currently see any of them being part of any serious progress next season, provided we secure safety this season.

Mills is alright as is Wheater but I wouldn't play them together also there not getting much protection from midfield at the moment and that's where our current problems stem from.

This.

I would not be opposed to this

 

Imagine his chances in the PL would become more limited if FSA leaves and a new manager who believes in the West Ham way comes in

With the exception of the goalkeepers I would quite happily replace our whole defence (once we decide where Vela is playing). Mills came with a good reputation but there must be better defenders in League 1 never mind elsewhere. Being realistic I think one of Mills or Wheater needs replacing, together they look ready to ship goals/fouls/yellow cards every game. Dervite should be able to replaced with better and we need two new full backs. Brighton have started winning so we need to get our shit together quickly.

 

Correct about replacing the defence

I agree with you on that Mounts - but I don't entirely trust our three central defenders on their own merits. That's not to say they are crap, they aren't - but I don't currently see any of them being part of any serious progress next season, provided we secure safety this season.

Wheater, Mills and Dervite are fine if we had a midfield that wasn't as soft as a wet paper bags and had any full backs who weren't absolutely shite.

 

We need two full backs and a proper battler in the centre of midfield. Decision to loan out Spearing looks ridiculous to me as he would be far better in there than what we've got now.

I would move heaven and earth to get Nolan back to BWFC and once he's back I'd never let him leave again once his playing days are numbered I'd make sure a role on the coaching or management team was open to him.

spearing, i would guess, is on 20k a week

 

wages we cant afford

 

lennons 649 central midfielders comment now looks a little stupid

Have a plus from me. Was gutted the day Nolan left

If we had Nolan back he'd have to play in place of Clough.

 

Fuck that.

Think we have a number of gippers already. Nolan is slow now and hardly the midfield enforcer required to protect the defense. We had the best of him, reckon its time to move on now

Our defence was shipping goals in shedloads under Freedman with one or even two holding midfielders in front of them. We've been effectively playing without any for the last month, so no surprise that we're shipping them even more.

 

Where a lot of teams have improved over the time we've been back in the Championship has been the pace in their teams, particularly going forward. We have a bit more going forward than we had, but we're chronically short at the back and, for me, until we re-model the defence to remedy that, it needs the protection of a holding midfielder and to have two proper full backs in it.

 

At the moment, we look lightweight, weak and naive

Watford must be worried about their defence, Zat Knight gone on trial.

 

Good grief

What's he been charged with?

Impersonating a footballer

Guilty as charged!

What's he been charged with?

Being a cunt

If we had Nolan back he'd have to play in place of Clough.

Fuck that.

Clough won't be here next season.......

Speaking of which, just had a chat with the Roverrr at work who has seen enough of him to suss him out.

 

'He points a lot and passes sideways'.

A question, do folk recon bannon is any better than spearing

Bannon is too lightweight to play central midfield but think he could do a job wide left. Totally different player to Spearing though. Not convinced I'd want either of them next season

I think Bannan takes a better set piece

Bannan tweeted that he was watching 50 Shades on his own yesterday afternoon.

Creatively and on the ball Bannan is different class unfortunately both lightweight for the championship.
