well given the recent form i've recinded my request to have him sacked. i'll give him the summer and hope for top 7-10 by december. also i'm hoping for better buys in the summer and to see a lot of guys go.

lol

same here. i called for his head a couple matches back, and am willing to give him the summer, but come december i'd like to see up in the top 7 mix.

agreed, and for me the only place to play naisy is 9. while romelu is injured he should play there, bag more goals, and be sold in the summer. wonderful player and locker room guy, but with romelu and ross there isn't room for him and he doesn't pass and link up well enough to be fluid in the attack. he could be a super sub/cup player for us next year, but i don't think he wants that. deserves to start somewhere.

you can, you'll just be off in the summer (see arsenal's vermalean).

he's spot on like always, great writer and seems to understand football at a high level. it's going to be an interesting summer.

agreed on mirallas. i put what i think we WILL lineup with, not what i want. Personally after Soton i think Naisy has to be the 9, Kone can sub on or play the wing if need be. Matt - why will we get spanked? they're flying high this year but don't have bony or michu (an in form version) anymore, not sure why you are so worried.

I'm guessing the soton lineup is the starting 11 for the rest of the year. Swansea have had a very good year and up until this year we had never lost to them. I hope we are able to pull this out and get a win. Here's how I think we'll lineup Howard Coleman Stones Jags Baines McCarthy Barry Lennon Barkley Osman Naismith Subs - Kone, Mirallas, Besic

Glad we are out. Would love to see up rise a few more spots up the table.

Wins a win for me. Glad we beat a decent team too, about time.

Made up. Party was over and I seen 1-0. Top ten must be the goal now. So glad we are finally turning the corner.

It's my sons first birthday party today so ill miss the match. Looking forward to reading this thread after to see how we did.

Terrible news. He was really looking good for us.

True I guess that's how the sky money is limited since you can't go and buy wordlies since we need more homegrown after that FA ruling. Harry Kane will be worth 50m just due to him being good and English. Let's hope the academy has some more Ross Barkleys.

Haha mike good stuff. Stats are funny, when I grew up in the 80's it was just basic stats. Now they have a stat for everything. Everyone's record when wearing the black kit and missing an international while playing on a Saturday night. Comical really.

Great points guys. Never thought of it like that dunc. The prem will be a level above money wise than the other leagues (as a whole, obviously some teams have more money but not many). Well time to shore up the academy and start buying foreigners then since we can out bid Most.

Agreed. Hope he stays but If we get more than 28m I'm okay with that too.

Haha pad. I've only seen him play a couple times, wasn't blown away. Really like the look of a healthy Gibson and would be willing to give Besic a shot to. I think CM is probably our strongest position other than left back.

Good news dunc. Really sounding promising.

good thought here pad. i've never really liked jags as captain. mccarthy is a good shout, and to be honest i'm not really sure who else i'd put in there. i don't want barry on the pitch, but he would be a good captain and does get after the refs, so if RM continues to play him despite his form, i'd be okay with him as captain. i don't want that, but could understand it.

geez pad crushing dreams left and right. you tell your kids santa wasn't real when they were babies just to crush their dream as well? my gosh man, you always seem so angry.

my wife has never seen "The Wire" so we are watching. great show.

please sign him. they are so stocked in attack and with the 433 now he is surplus. please sign him.

Great news, so do they advance?

Ha good point. More on the hype meter of things. I think from what I've heard and seen Galloway will turn out to be solid, Robles I'm willing to give a chance, henen is just unknown, could be world beater could be playing for Olympiakos next year. I just made an educated guess mike. Got nothing against the lads.
