  1. To be fair it's obviously more than just Pulis. I'd say there's more disfunction at the club than we know right at this moment. Might not be long before we find out though. Oh yeah of course theres more to it than that, it sounds like we've *** certain clubs off with the way weve conducted our business in recent years. We are obviously reluctant to deal with certain agents and their demands and we also seem to be trying to balance the books. Unfortunately the average fan doesn't want to hear those excuses. I think it's even more than that tbh. It's the internal stuff that's bo
  2. Where is he at? Was he not still there?
  3. Hopefully. Just Hugill and Fletcher left. If we can ship Fletcher out to Hull, then we're just waiting for West Ham to recall Hugill. Full Pulisisation. Can afford Stewie's contract then, plus, he can play up top. Win win.
  4. Again, good. Feel like Pulis may have been tempted. Thankfully not.
  5. I'd rather have the 2005-2008 Stewart Downing than Johnson like. I'd take Schwarzer back. Or Rochemback, for the absolute bantz.
  6. Its not even funny is it? This is almost worse than last January.
  7. Agree with this bit; Downing has been overrated for months now and on the left we keep square-pegging strikers into left-wing roles. I disagree. Everything goes through Downing, and he has to drop deep because the two CMs don't really move forward with the ball. He isn't really an 'attacking' player in the way Ramirez was, but he is integral to the way we play. He does need more from whoever is playing on the left though. He's playing the number 10 role. How many goals and assists does he have? How many chances has he created is a much more pertinent statistic.
  8. Why are we sure there's even a problem with Clayton? The previous manager, who made plenty of questionable decisions didn't seem to rate him, he was injured when the new guy came in. Pulis seems to be slowly reintroducing him. No suggestion of an attitude problem, no suggestion he wants to leave. And as much as he may like Aitor, he can do better than Forest right now. Honestly think its a non-starter.
  9. This annoys me. At some point we have to realise that ball after ball into the box isn't working. We've done it every game this year and barely get anything out of it. Where's the creativity elsewhere. We're so one dimensional it hurts,and other teams are well aware. Besides just ***ting the ball into the box doesn't equal a good cross. He usually crossed from the touchline because he isn't quick enough to get beyond the winger. A full back he isn't.
  10. Downing 2 did your telly break. He was the only 9ne to get any crosses in before traore changed sides he kept possession and drove us forward. No where near as good as reciently but better than the rest of the team 2 was being kind :D :D Your a harsh man Not sure he is. Downing was horrific. Love to see his completed passes/cross statistics because I can't remember any. I'm also sick of our one dimensional run down the wings and whip a cross in to nobody play. Seems to be the only idea we have. It's not working.
  11. He explained that what he trying to do was keep a clean sheet but grab a goal at the other end by using the pace upfront by playing on the counter attack. I think the bench is not great i reckon friend could be replaced by Roberts, Fletcher by Baker, Johnson by downing maybe as well. I'm pretty sure Shotton clean sheet is an oxymoron
  12. He isn't there. I assume he's going through an employment tribunal, and so is on gardening leave. And that he is therefore currently the club's assistant manager, but isn't working there. It’s still exceptionally stupid that we haven’t got a new guy in for Monk regardless of Agnews situation. There is nothing that stops us from getting someone in. There is. Agnew is still technically employed as Assistant Manager. So what? Just hire someone else. You can have more than one assistant. Or hire another coach. The current situation is insane. Or just pay him off. We’ve already sp
  13. Why have you dropped Fabio? Bizarre. He gets knackered after an hour. He was excellent against Cardiff mind, but had a real dip before that. Can we get them both in the same team? I miss George going forward. Christie seems to be one of Monks undroppables.
  14. My favourite bit is the bit where they use a photo of the Estadio De Luz instead of the Riverside. Close enough.
  15. He's Mourinho-lite though, Juan Mata had similar issues.
  16. Much better than not playing under Monk, right?
  17. Not too dissimilar to the job he had when he took over from us. He'll sort the defence out... and probably sell Juke. Interesting to see who he takes with him, and if he tries to sign anyone. I'm thinking Ayala.
  18. I agree. Let's go back to the club Vs Gazette arguments again.
  19. It's not a competition. You don't get prizes for best signings on deadline day. We've had a better window than them.
  20. More likely 3-5-2 for me: Randolph Shotton Fry / Ayala Gibson Christie Clayton Baker Howson Fabio Assombalonga Braithwaite / Bamford I'm just starting to think we need to lose our Clayton addiction . I wonder if he was a pure bred Karanka player. Not progressive enough for how we need to play now. Nope.
