My biggest issue, and I have more than one, but I think the biggest problem isn't the personnel chosen, isn't the lack of substitutions at the right times, it is that there are no less than 3 very good players in team, there are no less than 4 others that would make it into top half premiership sides, and i'm being conservative with those numbers. Those good players, good players who looked like they came from different sports and made a football team. Where does the blame lie when good players look like they know nothing about how each other play. Where does the blame lie when a team can't string 3 passes together. IMO we were the worst looking 'team' this weekend. Where does the blame lie for that?

IMO our world class players are:
1. Torres (When fit only Drogba or Rooney can match him)
2. Gerrard (Only Lamps and Fabregas in his league)
3. Reina (The best in the PL)
4. Cole (If can regain old form of a season ago is world class)
5. Raul (I know unproven but watch this space)
6. Agger (Great footballing CB and can defend, fitness an issue)
7.Johnson (cant defend but is superb at raiding)

All these players would have the top clubs going for them if we put them on the transfer market.

I know there are a few if's in there and those if's will be key to our season. Can Cole get his form back? Can Agger stay fit? Is Raul the player we all hope?

On top of these guys there are the dependables of Carra, Kuyt and I think Konch will be too. After that then we have to hope that Pach, Jova, Babble, Maxi, Kelly, Ngog, Poulsen ect can step up.

More if's but f*ck what can you do but hope!

a point at brum is no shame.


I dont think anyone is complaining about the point because as you said its a decent result.

I think the worrying think has been the lack of invention, effort, belief, ability etc.. We all know it will take time for Roy to get the team playing the way he wants but surely the group of players we have should be able to preform a little better against the likes of West Brom and Birmingham.

Saying that our performances in the last 3 league games have been muck is not an attack at Roy by any means, as he needs time, but it is a fact.

We have been the worst footballing team in the League so far this season but the positive thing is we have managed to get a few points on the board.

We made Birmingham and West Brom look like Real Madrid and Barcelona but at least we got 4 points from it which is the main thing I suppose at this stage.




absolutely bang on the nail. yes, might have been a good point but we were sh1te and lucky to come away with a draw how anyone can say different baffles me. the one thing keeping me hopeful about the man u game is the players might want to play because at the min we dont look like we got a clue and thats roys fault he has changed nothing from when rafa was here so hence the same lack luster performance. if they dont turn up against man u get ready for another embarrassment at old trafford.....


don't be a hater. take the banter

Roy failed to sign any wingers or another forward, which is what we needed most of all, and instead signed a defensive midfielder Poulsen, who seems no better than Lucas, and signs another midfielder Raul. We don't need extra depth from Poulsen, we need another forward and two wingers. Especially as Gerrard can play centre mid.

Roy doesn't seem to realise that Maxi and Jovo are not good enough. Kuyt isn't either.Even Sterling, who is about 16 years old would provide more width down the wing than any of those. If you've got crap on the wing, you may as well play a youngster there. Pacheco, Amoo, Sterling....someone.

Johnson should be playing right wing, and Kelly playing right back. Johnson is not a long term solution, but he's far better attacking than Maxi.
couldnt of pput it better my self
