  1. based on what? i didnt see the bolton game, but his appearances as a sub havent really impressed me i doubt tommy will play, im sure he's still injured, as pienaar be too
  2. i think there is a bit of neievity (cant spell) we dont know anything about this team, that doesnt mean they arent a good side! they could be a really good side for all we know, im sure in 4hours time we will have a much better idea
  3. i was waiting for your reply rob. wasnt sure about the structural stuff myself. liam, its half and half. the lower tier is under ground, then the restaurants/corporate are ground level, then the upper tier is the bit the grass slopes onto. mark, its fc chivas (mexico) will hold about 45000, at the moment they are doing the under ground structural work. it is innovative, and different!
  4. the site has just been updated, i guess they are changing things behind the scenes. should be fine later
  5. basically, the stadium is built below ground level, you just build above slightly. the only thing you really see is the roof structure. i thinks its a great idea, different to most designs. its just a great design imo would stand out more than any design ive seen lately. its not just plans either, they are actually building this right now
  6. not sure if this is the best place to post this, but just been looking around worldstadiums.com and came across this idea. looking at it i dont think it would be too expensive, maybe less construction (or maybe more, im no engineer)
  7. if he does im sure he wont let us down. though id rather he doesnt play
  8. 451 is a great formation, if you have winger. chelsea domminated for two years with drogba cole robben duff swp. we dont have a sinlge winger who is fit to play. and the list of players who are better in 442 or 451, you've just guessed at most of that. grav was good for 6 months! 6 MONTHS!!! and he hasnt been able to get a game since! and when cahill was good in a 451, it was more of a 4411 (442 imo) as cahill was a second forward. but yak is more of a threat than cahill, but we can use cahill some where else when yak plays. bored now.
  9. got to be something more in it than him just quiting! queros been talking about quiting, might join united as assistant for a year before taking over? or maybe real madrid?
  10. zed - whilst you have got the radio code you can try a little automotive reverse psychology. disconnect your battery again, leave for about 3mins then re-conect it. then enter your code as usual. may clear down the fault codes in the memory (or in the cars bsi if it has one) mike - if you email me some time tomorrow i can find out a spot on price for you (stephenbracken@peugeotmail.co.uk) chances are that the wiring for the changer will be there (its cheaper at the factory to put the wiring in every vehicle than to take the time to put it just in the ones that will use it, same goes for fog lamps too) you would probably just need the changer, plug it in and hey presto. if you can get me the last 8 digits of your VIN number i can tell you pretty much anything you need to know about your pug
  11. dont underestimate them mark, we could be in for a tough nite, with or with out arteta. if he wants to make the spain squad these are the games that can really help him.
  12. see the cavalry of sense has arrived! but i think its time for me to give up on this thread! im baffled, and maybe even a little flabergasted!
  13. Good work on them points bob! why is it like having 5 defenders? its not like we would otherwise be attacking with 6 players getting forward anyway, that would leave the defence too exposed. we would be attacking with 2 forwards, 2widemen and a central midfielder.
  14. carsley can only be short term, two years at the most. if you want to pin boltons goal on jags (which was a quality finish by the way) then im sure a few people on here can name goals caused by carsley last term, mostly due to his lost pace
  15. liam, why do you know an abraham lincoln site?
  16. what area do you live in zed? do you still have the security code?
  17. our record signing doesnt start! (i wont comment on jags being dropped for carsley/grav)
  18. dont you guys have the magic red button down there?
  19. 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.
  20. that is shit, taking legal actions against its own fans for having an opinion! i'd be very upset!
  21. 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
  22. 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?
  23. 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.
  24. 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?
