Hope it goes well for you Rubes. Hope your back on here in no time.

Why Why Why Why Why Why Why do you constantly ignore the facts that I and others have pointed out to you on several occasions? this is where your immaturity becomes incredibly irritating. Your making an "early judgement" on a player who hasn't played football for 6 months, playing in a new league, new team and doesn't even speak the language, Why? Thats all i'm asking. Im not even saying he is a good player but to write him off considering the circumstances is just incredibly naive. No i dont sit in the top balcony.

Christ I give up.

I am 20. And I still seem to be able to structure my points and apply a bit of logic, amazing that ain't it? Should give it a go "mate". I'll ask the question i asked in the match day thread that you seemed to be unable to answer, why was it that Traore plays 60 mins, scores a goal and no mention of you taking into consideration his injury, new league etc. Barkley comes on against Chelsea for 20 mins and was probably the worst we've seen from any player this season so far and BOOM! Oh yeah it's because he's been injured. Double standards. Grow up or show some validity to your posts. Preferably both. Yeah I sit in the top balcony with glasses.

No offence but not even bothering with you anymore kid. Your posts are either cringingly immature or obvious WUM material.

Anybody else bored of this shit now? For the 28439923773389th time, HOW CAN YOU JUDGE A PLAYER WHEN HE HASNT PLAYED A GAME IN 6 MONTHS!!! He hadn't even got time off the bench to get used to the team, the league, the speed of the game in this country. I don't even rate the lad for fucks sake but it's driving me up the fucking wall people writing him off ALREADY even though he scored! Okay he didn't have the greatest of games but he was thrown in to a whole new environment and he couldn't have even been half fit as he's done the same injury again already. Give the lad a break FFS. Pathetic writing him off after that game. He may very well turn out to be a pile of wank but let's have a bit of common sense and give him a few games ey? I know that may be too much to ask of some of you. Apologies for the language. Rant over.

Surprised people think Wales have an easy group..Bosnia & H. ain't no pushovers and will certainly give them a game. Switzerland should give England a game but a game we should win nonetheless. Can't see any of the others troubling us. Why do we always seem to play San Marino? Or am I just imagining it?

You got me Cant beat a bit of Guy love.

Get a room! be finishing each others sentences next!

Especially as the reason is "to strengthen their development squad." Surely they're better off playing competative football than in the reserves? :dont know:

Completely forgot about the World cup. Christ, it will be interesting to see what Martinez pulls out the bag! Like you say, with losing loan players adding to the fact we have a fair few players the wrong side of 30 and a few more heading that way its vital that we add to the squad.

You have to consider that this is still our first year of transition though. You cant expect to implement a philopshy in a little under 9 months. Expecatations after our start to the season soared and i think now reality has hit us. We are slowly bringing in the type of players Martinez needs to implement his style but as ever our problem seems to be finding a constant goal threat. I said in another thread we really need to be looking at Strikers who play similarly to Naismith rather than Lukaku's or Traore's. Naisy has done well and would still be a good rotation option but we need someone of quality to take us to the next level (i know, how many times has that been said) It pains me to say but it works so well for the shite with Suarez and Sturridge because they link with the midifelder so well. If you look at their attributes, they are essentially midfielders. Having a 6ft + striker who is going to bully defences are a thing of the past, which is why i dont think Lukaku will become the player he wants to be unless he sorts his touch and technique out, hes still young and can adapt his game to this but "Droga esq" players i.e powerful, arent going to get you that far anymore IMO. We also need more creativity. I think Pienaar can give us this, but when playing against the big boys its painfully obvious he isnt a LW anymore. He just doesnt have the pace. I think he could still be effective behind the striker but even then he is on borrowed time. He is what? 32 now? It will be an interesting Summer for sure, we should have atleast £20m to spend based on players who have been sold. Whether that will be spent remains to be seen but there are key area's of the team that need strengthening in order to improve quality and to replace ageing players. IMWT

Atleast we agree on something!

He was in your opinion. Pienaar was marginally better with his link up play and Ossie did okay but overall i think all of our attacking midfielders were shite. Barry did alright and McCarthy played well.

You never really explain yourself though. You simply state your opinion as fact and fail to ever really give any credible evidence to any of your arguments. Your right though, pointless arguing as i dont think we've seen eye to eye on anything.

What did he do when he was on apart from fuck up a shot he should have got on target at the very least!

You've got to be a WUM. You cant be serious!

The irony!!! It hurts!!

realised that as soon as I posted it! I'd still give it jags though, some really important challenges and a great scorpion kick clearance! Distin did a great block but not much else IMO.

Of course you do! That's my point you muppet. Traore was shite against Swansea (in your opinion) even though he scored and hadn't played for what? 6 months? Barkley comes on and was an absolute embarrassment but he's just "not up to standard yet".

Jags all day. Not sure how people can vote for Distin? He lost Terry for the goal.

no, it was the fact that you wrote Traore off after his first 60 mins even though he scored. Barkley comes on and is shite and he's "not up to standard at the moment". Double standards?

All the possession first half, fuck all end product. Cech had 1 save to make all game. Barkley was terrible when he came on and Gerard never had a sniff. Mirallas was dire.

Ey Miguel how shite has Barkley been? Should get rid in the summer I think...

Barkley looks lost since he came on.
