Steklenbergs going nowhere he’s just signed a new deal.

I’ve never been sold on him. I’m praying he’ll come good but he’s now got attack minded players around him and we’re still seeing nothing.

His job should be to play the 10 role you can’t count the time under Koeman or Allerdyce as he’s was played out of position regularly or was playing in a team set up not to lose. This season will be his big test and I think so far he’s done well.

If we’d have paid £20 million for him nobody would be questioning him. I see it on Twitter all the time “ he needs to start living up to his price tag” why?? Fid he ask to be sold for that much money, is it his fault we overpaid massively for him, is it his fault he walked into the middle of a shit storm? The lad is easily one of outlr best players and one of the few who gives you hope that we can do something a bit special when we are struggling or need to pull a rabbit out the hat. He shouldn’t be on pens though.

I hope he falls in love with it here- he’s going to be a class centre half and he’s exactly what we are looking for.

Anyone else a bit concerned that Fulham seemed to have literally the whole of our half of the pitch to themselves a couple of times when they broke?

Widley reported that that’s true now. Broke his metatarsal. You couldn’t make this up could you. It’s like we’re fucking cursed.

The tea lady.

Only made the bench for Villa Saturday.

Ahh with you now. Not sure how I managed that- must have been a typo as I know how to spell crysus

I’m talking about the thread title- what’s wrong with it?

Still not got the slightest clue what anyones on about and to be honest, I’m not in the slightest bit arsed.

Every fuckers injured- we’re struggling to put a strong team out against West Ham- have they really been not worked properly and are they really that unfit or have we just been unlucky.

Keanes had a bad atart but in a shite team. Lets see how he does under Silva- plus I’d like to hope Brands and Silva wont fuck up like Koeman and Walsh.

So we buy an already proven younger CB. Jagielka has been a great servant I’d hate to see him being treated like Reid was at the end, imo opinion that’ll happen (already is in some sections of fans) should he play another season with us after this one.

Will they be next year? 37 is old for any player to play premier league football.

See above post. If we want to push into top 6 having a 37 year old full back who’s legs are on the way out is not for me. Buy a replacement and let him go.

I don’t want a 37 year old defender as back up- his legs have already gone. Buy a replacement and move him out.

Next season he’ll be 37 wont he?

I’ve always liked him- I think he’s going to be a fantastic player in a couple of years. He’s strong, quick ( but not rapid tbf) and he is good on the ball. Stoke were just dreadful last season.

I just don’t see it with Davies, I’ve been patient and watched and watched him. I don’t get it, he’s not good enough

Apart from Baines they should both be released. Baines deserves one more season (as back up) for me.

Naismith (Lukaku aside) was the best finisher we have had in a long time. His inability to keep up with the forward play and constant losing of the ball breaking up attacks was his downfall. His finishing was top notch.

There’s no clause- Silva has said there isn’t hopefully he loves it here and we offer Chelsea enough money to tempt them- IF he continues to impress.
