Paddock Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Amazing how Baines says he needs a few windows and time even to get the players into physical shape. Who'd of thought that eh! Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I'll be honest - fitness..... a very very grey area for me. An unfit premier league footballer is probably 10 times fitter than the average bloke. How close have I been to "unfit" premier league fitness in my life? Once. Maybe. Used to do an hours heavy weights and blast out a 10k run in 40 mins and have loads of energy left. Was about 13.5 stone at 5ft 10 and about 8% body fat. I played footy as a winger and would arguably be the fittest in the team.... back then if i had to do what these boys do in the game liverpool and spurs play I would have been vomiting.... but I reckon I could play with our bunch of lads ok. To me.... that says none of our lads could play that way bar gana gueye. He is the template for fitness. So essentially... take the fittest I've ever been and I would fall well short of what our lads are required to do.... That's where some of them really do earn their coin. Btw I'm a 17st fat bastard now... just for the record. I'd probably be blowing running on the pitch as a physio.

Shy_Talk Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Yet another coifed haircut in a suit at palace talking garbage a la the last ten or so spivs that have been the face of ownership at that cesshole. I hope we volley these all over the show today, as a thanks for that moment allowing arsenal to sneak fourth from us in "our greatest season ever, ever" (meh!) This bunch are in trouble, hope we don't fold like we did that sunderland game to help them out of a relegation jaunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shy_Talk Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 And tonight proves three things. - Fresh legs means everything in a side set to harass the oppo when looking to claw back possession. - Fresh ideas, being able to vary the play means the oppos cant figure you out easy and nullify. - Having a world class finisher in the side means not relying on a standout signing on the wing to carry you, every side needs that main man, the sides without a superstar striker that can play at least one full game a week are slowly being found out this deep into the season. Well played Saints, up yours kopites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shy_Talk Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Who is the Saints world class finisher? Read it again, consider 'standout signing on the wing' and ponder, was it actually saints I was refering too, or could I have been making a point about a setup closer to home....

Houlding saw that this was only the beginning and realised being champions was a golden opportunity to take the Club to the next level." What next level? There wasn't one back then .

We really are building something cool with moshiri and Walsh. Stockpiling talent is always solid. In fairness, this has been our policy for 3-1/2 years now. I'm very pleased to see it continuing, because it looked earlier in the season as if we'd abandoned that strategy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Stockpiling talent kills the game, look at Chelsea. I'm all for bringing in promising youngsters but only if the end goal is integrating them and not profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
