  1. StevO is absolutely spot on! 4-5-1 has been our most successul formation by far under Moyes, it's also our most attacking. We have midfielders capable of scoring (Cahill, Arteta, Osman), and we midfielders capable of grafting (Neville, Fernandes, Carsley). We have 5 forwards of varying qualities and we're pretty solid at the back these days (mostly). AJ has to be No1 when he's fit up there on his own. If no AJ, then Vaughany is a very similar type of player. Very fast over the turf and capable of bearing down directly on goal. If no Vaughany, then Victor it is also quite capable to sit up there alone. He offers good link up with the attacking midfielders and can also run at defences direct and put the shits up them. BT? He can cut the oranges in half for half time with McFudge! At the end of the day, 4-5-1 is an attacking formation. The midfield is where the game is controlled. If our midfield has the right mixture of grafting ball winners and attacking wanna be strikers then by default we will be strong and launch more attacking play. DM should build the team / squad around this need and only then will we be able to seriously start to challenge regularly.
  2. Not wanting to piss on anyone's birthday cake here, but Hibbo will never bang one in and he DID bring Vaughan on, and we DID get beat!
  3. We know we're shite playing 4-4-2 so why keep tryin' it? We're far stronger and more attacking with 5 across the mid as we always have an allowance for one of them to push on. Just can't understand the sense in us playing weaker! Opinions?

    Fuckin' negative twat! What a tosser trying to play it out with mins to go. Should've had Vaughany on from the start and not that fuckin cart horse BT
  6. I've been on and voted for us. Some real shite on the thread though!
  7. He does have a fat arse to drag round the pitch though, doesn't he?
  8. Thing is............................. The Shite really should be beating the small / smaller clubs at home Desparate fuckers buying all sorts to try and improve! It's hardly building the right foundations is it? Tossers
  9. I seriously hope Yozzer proves the thick ginger twat wrong! Completely shite management. He may not take risks on the pitch, but Moyes certainly risks our squad size and is dwindling it away. Daft twat!
  10. It's bollocks from BK! We need to be playing in Europe in order to further our redevelopment. The more varied experience we get the more we should improve until we hit the CL again and put up a better show than last time. As already said earlier, the higher we finish in the league, the more we make. With the upcoming dosh that Sky will be paying out there will be a kitty available for players so we can improve the team and make European progress. So, shut the fuck up Bill, you nob! Put up or shut up!
  11. TWIST! If we can cash in while he's still got some credibility then we should do so. The potential is always there with Beatts but how long can we wait while in the meantime Vic has come through and surpassed him and Vaughney's back in the frame with his electric pace. Let's sell and use the funds towards getting the driving dynamic midfielder we really need!
  12. Yeah, let's flog "Nace the Tramp" (to Rangers ), keep Nuno fit (hopefully) and get Sandro sellin' ice cream in the Street End! Start gettin' young Paddy Boyle groomed and ready to take over in a year or two.
  13. With Peas & Gravy gone now, I think DM will promote Phil to full blown Club Captain. I'm ok with this as I think he demonstrates the determination and spirit which epitomises howwe feel about our team. Comments anyone?
  14. Flog "Dodgy Dickie" I say and get some dosh in the kitty !
  15. Best of luck to the Big Fella on his re-unification with "Old Walter". I agree. He'll do a top job for Rangers! Thanks for 8 years service Davie and all the best.
  16. City's official website has this at the top of the homepage I'm afraid Barton going nowhere 16/01/2007 22:00 After an inspirational performance in the 2-1 FA Cup victory over Sheffield Wednesday tonight, Joey Barton has again committed his future to Manchester City. Speaking after the game, the influential midfield stated: "I'm very happy at the Football Club. "I've got a manager who believes in me and we're making great progress. I've got no intention of leaving." http://www.mcfc.co.uk/default.sps?pageid=1...amp;toyear=2007 Poo !
  17. I think the clueless bastard has made quite a mess of things recently. I was no more than ten feet away from him at yesterday's game and he just stood there staring. When he tried shouting to players they just ignored him! I think they're pissed off with his line ups and his tactics. When we lost Valente he could've brought Weir on and moved Lescott to left back (a better option than Naesmith IMO). Arteta should be central with Neville. He's the playmaker and can supply AJ far better from a central position. Osman can play left and VDM right. Yobo or Mark Hughes can play right back. Young Vaughan should have been on for the 2nd half to add his pace and we should have thrown everything at them. At least had a go at them! A bag of bollocks is all we got. All Moyes wants to do is play safety first football. No fuckin ambition to get stuck in and attack teams at home. Too many times we've seen this so far this season where we don't finish the job off and sit defending a goal lead. It's shite, and we won't get anywhere unless we play to the players' strengths and not Moyes' negative tactics. I expect and demand a massive improvement against Reading.
  18. A Moyes fuck up as far as I'm concerned! Should never have changed a winning side to start off with. Getting like fuckin' Benitez with his changes! Changes can be be made into the game if needed. We're not in a position to fuck about with putting BT in the shop window and "easing" Victor into the team. If the lad's good enough, he's old enough! he's proved he can do it at this level and scored twice against the Skunks FFS so he should have been started. If Shandy VDM isn't fit enough we'd soon have seen but he should've stuck with him to start. Moyes needs to stop fucking about and play to our strengths!
  19. Why wasn't Barton playing today? Is he supended, injured or coming back with us on the coach?
  20. Agreed! He's had enough opportunities to do something and taken none of them. He lacks the attitude to play in this team and young Victor makes him look worthless playing in the same positition. Just look at the difference between the two. Time to sell I think and we can use what we get for him to strengthen a bit. Do the decent thing Moysie and flog the waster!
  21. Totally agree that Neville should be our skipper next season. No one has more experience than him and he constantly tries to drive on the rest of the team. I speak as someone who sees him every time he plays, home or away, and it's easy to see he is a clear leader. He doesn't have to be the worlds best player to be the skipper (Davie Weir for example), but he does have the respect of his peers and can be inspirational. So, Pip it should be. No question!
  22. If we get to talk to him, we've got the best chance out of the three I reckon! It's fairly known that AJ is quite matey with Beats so let's hope he's havin' a word, eh?
  23. Fulham have put Malbranque up for sale today and are looking for offers. I think we should be showing an interest. What say you lot?
  24. Fookin One Man Band still though! Gerard baled them out in Turkey and he had to do it again today. West Ham had 'em beat but the spawny bastards got out of it again.
