  1. what area do you live in zed? do you still have the security code?
  2. our record signing doesnt start! (i wont comment on jags being dropped for carsley/grav)
  3. dont you guys have the magic red button down there?
  4. so you want ot play 4 center mids and a winger? --------------cahill---------------- --------------grav---------arteta ------cars-----------jags--------- no balance for me with that. arteta---cahill--jags---grav i could maybe go for that as arteta is the only player who can do a good job on the left for us and grav can play on the right if needed. but i dont think i could drop one of AJ, Yak or Cahill.
  5. that is shit, taking legal actions against its own fans for having an opinion! i'd be very upset!
  6. get on the eticket site, pick them up on the nite. i'll be in my usual spec in the upper G end. taking special guest daddio instead of my mate for this one
  7. thank fuck some one on here understands the need for a defensive player in the midfield! how can grav or pienaar be considered our best players already?
  8. turning him into a midfielder? none of us know what role moyes has brought him in for. if stubbs is fit while Yobo is away id be sure moyes will play him over jags. you dont need to play 451 for a defensive midfielder to be usefull. Exapmle 1 - Arsenal - Gilberto - plays in a 442 - defensive midfielder - hardly seen attacking - partner Fabregas - often attacking - always a threat going forward Example 2 - Liverpool - Sissoko - plays in a 442 - defensive midfielder - hardly seen attacking - partner Gerarrd/Alsonso - often attacking - always a threat going forward now im not comparing the quality of our players to these, just the roles in a 442 of an attacking and defensive partnership. scholes and keane did it fantastic for years. cahill offers a different threat than fabregas/gerarrd/alonso/scholes, but still offers a threat. jags can do dog work like the others. its not all about flair, balance and team work are much more effective.
  9. not much to his game? he can tackle, he is strong in the air and very rarely gives the ball away. what more do you want from him? like others have said before, makelelle is the master at that role, you dont see him playing 40yard balls or defence splitting passes. just get the ball and move it on to another player. do you think if we would have got fernandes (who has "more" to his game) we would play with out a dog in midfield?
  10. i wouldn't be looking to replace him next season myself. left side is my concern. im sure people can tell ive been very impressed with jags
  11. whats your opinion on Jags? how do you see him fitting into the team? short term and long
  12. he didnt set the world alight, but then he isnt that kind of player. but every challenge he went into he came out with the ball, every header he won, every pass hit a blue shirt, tracking back to intercept. very very solid performance imo
  13. why? there is no reason to take jags out of the midfield at all. hes been a credit to himself, and is a more than capable replacement for carsley.
  14. "nice" isnt quite what comes to mind when i think of them two, but they do look (think im probably best to leave it there)
  15. i noticed one tabloid gave jags 4/10! i gave him my mom, only ahead of baines due to him doing the job of two men and still managed to keep carrick and scholes at bay! i think he was great and will only get better in our midfield
  16. well considering we have no left footed midfield players,and we have tried anybody/everybody on the left side, im pretty certain the left should be a priority. cahill and jags would be my first choice central pairing, but any of our other midfielders play there. so for me it is not priority at all.
  17. right back and left wing, should just about finish of my best 11
  18. we need a player for the left side, we keep trying osman, and he just doesnt cut it imo. if we could get a left footed arteta that would be magic! and carlmac - you cant compare anybody to gerrard and fabregas! and i find it foolish to even attept it! different league from most of the world!
  19. HAHA thats like a black osman and carsley! rubbish!
  20. Im with you on jags and cahill being the midfield.
  21. september is the month for come backs! first reg, then andy! what ever next?
  22. well maybe the lazy bastards need to hurry up a little! i got it right, the band got it wrong!
  23. this is first ive heard of this, a true sporting great. i remember a year or two ago he was willing to have a broken finger amputated so it wouldnt hinder his chance of winning the championship (i believe his wife talked him out of it) tragic. RIP
  24. can you seriously get an intercooler for the xbox?
