  1. He does the same in most games. First sub 70ish minutes and second 89ish. Doesn't do third incase something happens (all things being equal).
  2. Yeah I agree, hard to pick a pass when there's so many bodies in front of you. Really think we need a winger who can cross though as it's been atrocious today Yeah I think we're desperate for at least one new attacking player, if not two. Well I think we still need two wide men, an alternative no 10, a cf and a CB. Good luck getting 5 more players in. Doesn't have to be 5 players (be nice if it was) just they are the positions I think we need to strengthen.
  3. Just think a few of his balls forward have been poor, he looks better going into tackles than his previous two games I think that's as much about the lack of movement than anything else.

  4. I know this is dangerous but despite everything we look the better team going forward
  5. He really isn't that bad, I honestly don't get the hate. Confirmation bias
  6. Glad I'm not the only one who can see this. Downing has been fine. In fact showing Stuani how to play on the flank with your RB. Been covering defensively very well. Also made a couple of great runs where Forshaw hit a crappy pass that was intercepted and another where we decided to pass backwards. Also I can't recall him giving Posession away to much which not many of our other players can say Downing game would be fine if we had a left back going past him. He hasn't and hasn't adjusted. David Batty and Vinnie Sideways hardly gave the ball away, doesn't make you a good player and
  7. Lol are you serious? What has he actually done? Nothing as per usual. Forshaw and Clayton have done ok and actually contributed. Barragan has looked ok. Downing knocks a few easy passes around but when it comes to actually doing something he doesn't. He offers absolutely nothing and without Friend we've barely looked capable of going forward down our left hand side. He needs to sort himself out or we need to replace him. Well in this particular game we have been giving the ball away left right and center. Downing is the only calm figure on the pitch and makes sure we get some breat
  8. Gibson started with it on Wednesday and took it back from Friend when he went off. So I'd say Benny boy Nepotism.

  10. What is up with this place at the moment.
  11. We've probably spent between £17-20m this summer on new signings but have also committed to other finances as well. Negredo may have been a £3m loan fee but the club is liable for up to £7m over the course of the season. I don't know how true it is but I've heard we have £10m of bonus payments to make to clubs. We've also significantly added to our wage bill through a combination of clauses, new contracts and new signings. Add to that the stadium upgrades and some financial prudence and £100m goes quickly. I think one thing that over raised expectations was the media saying pro
  12. Didn't Henry play up front for Monaco? Edit: Pirlo is another great example.
  13. i suppose we did spend about £13m on Downing, De Pena and Stuani last year.
  14. I don't think Fischer has been brought in to play on the wing, but I do believe he's been brought in to play on the left. I've only limited exposure to the lad but my initial thoughts are that he'll do the job on the left that Stuani does on the right.
  15. Kalas 25/1 to be anytime goalscorer with skybet. That's higher odds than Muzzy.
  16. Former boro target manquillo is flying in for talks with Sunderland this week.
  17. Our finances were in trouble when McLaren left. We'd signed people with no resale value and were paying over the top wages to old pros. Barclays Bank three times refused to sanction the bond to sign Didier Digard. At one point when Southgate was gaffa the bank nearly tool control of the club.
  18. Still don't think he will make 8 I've gone with 7 changes but it wouldn't surprise me if Guzan kept his place.
  19. Richie de Laet has joined Villa for £2.5m. I would have had him back to play RB.
  20. In the league cup last season AK made 8 changes for the Burton game and 7 changes for the Forest game. Haven't bothered to check any of the other rounds if I'm honest. I'd expect 5-7 changes on Wednesday.
