  1. It was a true horror tackle, thoughts and prayers are with Seamus, he is in our hearts. He is a great captain and always gives 100% we will really miss him while he is out. I have to say its one of the worst tackles I have seen, there was intent to do harm, just like Keane on Haland, although obviously we hope Seamus recovers. Stay strong - were thinking of you!
  2. He seems to have settled there and taken to Italian football. I hope he makes a go of it.
  3. There is no way we would have proceeded with this unless we knew that the finances are in place, and the planning permission was likely to be granted. Morishi is to smart to do this any other way.
  4. Theresa May grinds my gears, started when she became Home Secretary.
  5. Tragic, but unfortunately inevitable. Loan wolf attacks are almost impossible to stop. Dynamic of terrorism has changed, cars and knives have replaced bombs and guns. Just thank God that we don't live in a country with access to firearms. Thoughts and prayers with those families of the dead and injured.
  6. Meaningless friendly, I expect him to play in the qualifiers.
  7. Assuming we qualify for Europe we will need quite a few reinforcements in the summer. Fortunately we have a few good youngsters coming through the ranks, but we still need significant additions to the squad. GK - Rubles - Keep, Steck - release. LB - Baines + 1 other needed assuming Garbutt is not up to scratch RB - Coleman + 1 other we need strong competition for him. CB - Williams Keep, Holgate Keep, Galloway Keep, Mori - Keep, Jags let go, + 1 more needed. CM - Morgan, Gana, Davies - Keep, McCarthy + Besic should be assessed to see if they are fit enough, Barry - keep to be a coach. We need 1 more AM - Barkley. We need 1 more to cover and for competition. Wingers - Bolasie - keep, Lookman - keep, Mirallas - keep, Lennon - sell. Gerri - sell, so we need 2 more wide players or inside forwards CF - Lukaku - please keep, we need 2 more
  8. That would be great, especially if its the winning goal!
  9. If we are missing Morgan then I would go 5 at the back: Rubles, Holgate, Jags, Williams, Coleman, Baines, Gaye, Barkley, Davies, Lukaku. We cant play Barry he is just to slow for a high energy pressing team. We can always bring on Miralla, Lookman etc if we need to.
  10. As has been said he is no world beater, but he does the basics very well and is cool and calm. A solid defender with experience is just what we needed to shore the defense up for a season or two until we can get quality defenders in and bring on Holgate and Galloway.
  11. Thank God for that, I didn't hear any at the West Brom Match when I was there. Just get him signed up to a new contract.
  12. Williams, yes. Jags is past it, Holgate is not there yet.
  13. Depends what your definition of footballer is. For me Rom is a great footballer, he scores goals, creates chances, stretches defenses. What he does not have is great ball control which Bergkamp did have. But Technique is not the be all and end all of being a great footballer.
  14. He won a couple of fouls and was involved in a couple of nice moves. He was a constant thorn in Hulls side with his movement and positioning.
  15. Arsenal are in free fall, Pool were so so poor against Burnley, UTD have a fixture pile up. Next 2 games are key for us, if we can get 4 points then we have a chance for top 6
  16. Ross, but could easily been Davies, or Gana. Honorable mentions for Rom and Calvert-Lewin.
  17. Four goals and 3 points and we didnt really try too hard. Was impressed with Calvin-Lewis, he looks a quality player in the making, very good technique, can go past opponents, and gets into good positions. Davies was immense, he was everywhere, his passing was good and again his positional sence is so advanced, he really caused Hull so many problems running past Lukaku and hanging around between the midfield and defense. Barkley again my MOTM for his all round play, he is such a key player for us now. Glad to see Lukaku score and his and the crowds reaction. I don't think this contract saga is over just yet!
  18. Goal was a brilliant move. I fancy us to win by a canter if we up the tempo and cut out the silly mistakes. We can't underestimate this Hull side or it will cost us. We need to get a second goal to kill the game off.
  19. I just can't believe that Ross won't sign a new contract. I can understand both sides waiting for the summer to see how things pan out. In November / December I'm not sure Koeman knew if Ross would be a key part of the team and Ross didn't know if he would be wanted. Now Koeman wants him and Ross appears to be enjoying things I can see him signing in the summer. Please God anyway!
  20. Just pissed off with players deciding when they play and when they don't. It shows a lack of respect to the club, the fans and football.
