Keane will be a much better player with Tarkowski. He is our best defender when he has leadership next to him.

Newcastle being linked with a move for him now.
I don't for a minute think anything will come of it but I fucking hate the people that run this club for making rumours like these have any sort of credence. The position they've put us in should mean that every blue wants them gone.

Boris and co flat out lie again?
In other news, water confirmed wet by scientists.

Well DCL will definitely stay now that will go so well with his handbag 😂

I see the important stuff being in Keanes favour. I'm not at the computer but if you worked out the percentage difference of games played (by that I mean find out the value of difference in missing minutes) then applied that to the stats of Mina, I'm not sure it would show he's better at all. But that's completely academic because the whole point is he doesn't play those minutes and has cost us an early substitution several times too

Who’s complained about DCL being a poacher? his best season out of 6 he’s played for us was as a poacher in Ancelotti’s team, he was told that his main job was to get in the area he did and boy didn’t it pay off. 

Like a good cheese the longer you leave it laying around doing nothing the more it will mature. Far too much money for very little return, our best central defender has been Keane due to the fact he’s reliable and not a sick note, if Keane only played the same amount of minutes last season as Mina we would probably be looking forward to Reading at home first game of the season.

That’s lay’s squarely at Moshiri’s door not Allardyce’s, if it wasn’t for that dick the fat twat wouldn’t have been here. 

Sounds a bit half baked or mashed up to me.

By far the best player at the club, he’s going to leave a huge void to fill, we currently have no one who comes close to filling that void so will be interesting see who Lampard sees as his replacement. With reluctance I wish him well and respect him as a person, he stayed a season longer than he needed to and gave 110% every game he played, he’s a born winner and we couldn’t match his ambition. We will never be pushing to be serious contenders for top  6 or above no team who can’t keep their better  players can be taken as serious contender, I hate the fact we can’t have nice things and I’m truly gutted and deflated he’s gone, worse thing to happen to us for a few years this will impact on us massively next season we haven’t kicked a ball and I’m dreading it already. 

Somehow being a poacher is being talked about as a negative. I don’t get it. Not enough strikers are poachers. Get DCL the ball in the box and he will score goals. It’s not that complicated, it’s not a bad thing. 

DCL has not shown he’s more than a poacher with decent hold up play. He just hasn’t.  I’m not sure why you would say he is better than Richie in 1 v 1’s and then use the fact that he used to be a wide player years ago as support for this. Richie is a wide player at the Premier League level..Dom isn’t.
 
He is not a player who beats people individually to get his own shot or create a chance often. Richie does that far more. Has Dom ever even had a threatening chance from outside the box? Has he ever beaten a man and then driven in on goal to create a great opportunity? It’s rare, at best. His average shot comes from about 5 yards out. He’s all the way an aerial player and a poacher. He’s good at it and it can be effective if he gets the service but without it he’s pretty limited as we’ve seen for long stretches. 

Shukes read my post properly and you will see about getting in behind, then read posts in front of mine who advocate crosse’s from wide area’s to make the most of what they consider his  best asset heading the ball, then watch his goals under Ancelotti and you will see and understand what I’m saying his biggest strength that season was getting in the right place and scoring from 3 or 4 yards out on the ground, out of his 5 with his head 2 or 3 he didn’t have to jump or dive for poor defending made them easy, so much so even Warwick Davis would have got his head on them. He’s been wasted as a player by those who just think his only asset is his heading ability. 

That season he fed off a lot of Richarlison’s attempts at goal and in the area touch’s, but your right we need a play maker to put good passes in to feet of players in and around the box, we don’t need constant crosse’s from the corner flag into the box.

He doesn’t score many from headers on crosses.  Loads of his goals were from Rodriguez creativity and getting on the end of things for standard finishes.   
 
he’s a better player when he does the hold up role, battle, work channels and hopefully now understand the timing of runs to get on the end of things. I’d take less goals from him for more involvement. 
 

In his only decent season of the 19 league goals 5 were from his head, the rest were nearly all poachers goals from from a few yards out. Ancelotti got it right by getting him in the area and working off the last man and anticipating the rebounds and blocked shots, the player he fed off the most was Richarlison by following in his shots and sliding home the lose ball and feeding off the bit’s and pieces. This one dimensional get the ball wide left or right and pump it in for DCL the loan striker isn’t going to improve us or him, that style of football becomes very easy cut off. We need a midfield who can play him in by getting behind teams in and around the box then he can feed off low driven shots or passes in the area. To think that we need to get crosse’s from wide areas for him to fight in the air for as the main focus of our attack is wrong. Just look on Google at his goals 20/21 season and you will see there’s more to his game than most give him credit for and Lampard needs to play to the strengths that Ancelotti brought out of him. 

Pleased to see this finally being sorted.

A new owner can only be a good thing - I have not problem with a group of money people coming even if there end goal is to maximize a profit for a consortium. The best way or only way to really make more money in football - is to get a better team and become more profitable. 
In this day of FFP it is all really going to be about having the best sport/football business people in at the top of the club. I have said it before, we are a club currently run by dinosaurs and dreamers - its no good in this day and age. It is time to now have modern business professionals to get the club on a even keel and run it like the business it needs to be to be successful in the global modern game. 
 

I think that the consortium trying to buy us are very aware that we are big club that has been mismanaged, and that they have all the right ingredients to turn us around. I hope this deal goes through and it’s a win win situation for us and them, not many clubs get a second chance of billionaire owners after failing so miserably the first time round.
