  1. Why does Baines take corners when Kev is on? Kev is our best corner taker.
  2. Why? For defending poorly, or instructing his players to defend poorly?
  3. Two pens...fuck sake. We try our best to give every game away.
  4. My God, how much did Coleman cost again? 30m? He's so good for such a bargain. Really taking charge down our right.
  5. Great powerful run there Ross.
  6. Your right. That's an excellent penalty.
  7. Other than his wasted opportunity I think Kone is looking good. Shit penalty. Mori has gotta learn he won't get away with bullying in the premier. Shiiit nearly got his hand to that.
  8. Great counter attack there. Confidence to take it first time Ross and good to see you on the box...shame about the execution haha.
  9. Hmm played well enough to won the last three games, been unlucky with woodwork and poor finishing....I know, let's change the team! I'm so glad RM stocks to his guns sometimes. Good starting line-up. Let's make sure we finish our chances today as I am sure they will if given too many. And if we have players struggling after 60 mins...then do them a favour and don't leave them out there to dry..change it. Put Kev on at 60 and give him a good half hour to make an impact. COYB'S let's make a statement here.
  10. But we're supporters, it always looks bleaker to us. Many neutrals think we are slowly and steadily moving forward. Our football is exciting and we are building a young and exciting team. RM may have a long term vision. Not saying he can fulfill it or not, just that it's not as bad as the last 3 results suggest. Leicester will be a good benchmark of how we are progressing.
  11. This for me. If we weren't creating chances and we're getting rolled over, then I would be worried.
  12. Not saying he is the big reason, just that I believe that having him on the pitch can sometimes inspire others to put that extra challenge in...or put your head in front of a shot etc. That's what we have been needing when crosses have came into our box. Let's face it, our keeper isn't going to change anytime soon.
  13. We have missed Jags the last few weeks. I think with him in the side we have that little bit of bravery needed to fight to hold onto a lead. Jags has football marks on all parts of his body....he's like having an extra 30% of a keeper.
  14. Kevs a much better player on the right. Only when he's on form. At the moment he's not any good anywhere.
  15. No i agree with you, he's no Pienaar. I just think he could link up better than anything we have. But dam do I miss pienaar...I think it is going to be hard to replace him. Special player.
  16. Think of modern football a bit differently. No longer is a winger a player that gets to the byline to put in cross...players are a bit more intelligent these days and link up play. Pienaar should have shown this.
  17. Like peinaar? Maybe trying something to see of it works could be a brave new world! Let's watch this space and see what happens. I'll gladly admit if I'm wrong.
  18. Try Cleverley there, he is the closest webhave to a Pienaar. Doesn't have the quick feet but he can move the ball on with speed. I think him and Baines will make a good partnership.
  19. Put Barkley deep and move Cleverley in front? Or maybe Mirralas central in Barkleys place? I think he is too much of a reserved player to stay in that position and that he will end up deeper. May as well start bedding him in now.
  20. And do you really believe we are a mid table team? I don't think so, I just think we are on a slow run where we are picking up points slowly without the ball going in. Palace could easily have been 4-1 on another day. Today could have been 4-0 at half time. Were close to clicking and someone is going to get a kicking whem we do.
  21. I'm not throwing it on his shoulders.it's the teams fault, including the manager. I just don't agree that Mirralas OS the answer, he should already be settled and ready to give his all. Mirralas is an Everton player, he owes us, not the other way round. And how much time exactly does he need? Does he deserve special care? Not for me. The blame is om players like Ross who is not really adding anything at the moment. Our defence who are apparently like kids that need explaining how to head a ball and defend a cross. I don't care of its due to a falling out or if he wants out...fact is he isn't performing when he comes on.
  22. Says you haha! OK so tell me, why isn't he taking his chances? Is he too good to be a sub? Or is it Everton letting him down? Fact is he has been shit for a long time.you can keep spouting how he is our best player blah blah blah bit the fact is when he does get a chance he doesn't take it. I have hoped for so long that when he comes on he will make an impact, but then it's the same old anti climax. I'm just not sure how many chances we need to give him.
  23. Was poor again when he came on today. Think he has maybe had his day with us. Just nothing to offer. Please sell gim so we can stop getting excited when he comes on...just to be let down time again.
