hang on a sec red. there's a good few things in there that need to be checked.
agreed couthinio is a smashing buy.
daniel has had some greta moments including today but he has been checkered in his performances, and is prone to being wasteful.
reina may have been good today but he has also been very shakey, especially in pressure games.
im not interested in stats that are selective like who scored the most goals when the sun was out and the team that made the most passes at an angle of 37 degrees. its about winning games and that is all.
suarez could and should be out the door, he is far to good for us.
downing is shiite. henderson shows promise but needs to capitalise next season.
all our youngsters are fckin [oops], with the jury still out on wisdom.
Sturridge hasn't been perfect, but 11 goals in half a season is an excellent return. He has a knack of scoring while we're behind too. He did that today, at Chelsea, at City, at United, and he's scored several more important goals. He's no more wasteful than Suarez. He's a striker, and he wants to score. Without Sturridge, we lose 1-0 today. With him, we win 3-1. That is a difference-maker. That is a match winner. I agree, at times he is wasteful, but he's scoring by the bucket.
I don't think our youngsters are shitte. Coates looked good today. Shelvy and Sterling did very well at the beginning of the season, and they will do better next season when we aren't absolutely dependent on them. Suso has showed promise as well. Wisdom has hardly put a foot wrong this season.
Goals are not meaningless. You can't win without them. That was our biggest problem last year. We look a better side than we did last year. I'm optimistic. Changing managers every season will make us a club in transition every year, and I don't see that ever paying off. We need stability. If the summer window is anything like our winter window, I think we could do very well.
