Post of the year so far

2 assists is correct. Ronald has definitely gone backwards compared to last season, same with Eom in that respect. But half a season under Sheehan where we were afraid to attack has played a huge part in that.

I agree completely, I still remember THAT free kick against Valencia. Even the home fans stood and applauded it

Not every player has that level of goodwill from fans after leaving them. Speaks well for his character

The phrase "deceptively quick" always reminded me of de Guzman, he certainly never looked like a pacy player but when he got moving he couldn't half glide past players

I wonder what the chances were that they were looking at losses severe enough to be slapped with a points penalty which would hurt their chances of promotion back to the Championship next season?

If your plan is to play the kids and throw the competition you are never going to say that in an interview are you? For starters there would be match fixing accusations if you came right out and said that, let alone the attendance would be next to zero as the majority of fans come to see their...

If they think he is fit it wouldn't surprise me to see us throw Ward into the deep end and see where his match sharpness is at.

On the topic of Inoussa: When he first got here he was always using clever flicks or first touches to get the ball past his man, open up a little bit of space either down the line or coming inside opening up the possibility of the overlap for Tymon. Sheehan thoroughly coached that out of him...

Yup that struck me as well (just finished listening to the press conference myself) Very emphatic that he was signed as a right back that can cover other positions rather than anything else with a big emphasis on his experience and leadership qualities. Can't always trust it but apparently...

Could be a smokescreen but he says he plans to play his strongest team

Tough to say but in the interview the clips where he was training he looked sharp. But then again the club would hardly show clips of him looking like a liability in training :LOL: I know the move is controversial for many, a lot of people (including myself) would have preferred Parker to be...

Unless we are sending Parker out on loan for the second half of the season I fail to see what value this bit of business has for us.

His ego demands an apology

Think number one is Pep (if I remember correctly Arteta was his number one for a period at City?) Arteta is probably pretty close behind though I think

Problem is Cooper has already made appearances for two clubs this season so he CANT go back out on loan. Cooper is now here to stay for the second half of the season

Which made the travesty of City's shameless cheating combined with incompetent officiating all the more galling It was a goal that deserved to win any game

Even more than I remembered, I thought I remembered Ayew on 60k and Bony on 50k Those kind of salaries are crazy to pay in the Premier League, let alone in the Championship

The lack of relegation release clauses or relegation wage reduction clauses was absolutely criminal I agree. In just two players (Bony and Ayew) we had over a hundred grand a week in wages and neither player was easy to move on. In fact both of them wound down their contracts as far as I can...

Of the seven signings that Swansea City made for Potter one was on loan and two were free transfers, only two of those were above 750k. Celina was quality and the last player we have had who was a natural number 10 attacking midfield player. For whatever reason Cooper couldn't get a tune out...
