  1. Apparently Tottenham in for Ince now too, how many midfielders can they seriously have?!
  2. I agree with you that Bowery made no sense to me at all last year either. I'd imagine this lad is quite a sight better than Bowery though. lol
  3. Need to take issue with you on this one Andy......don't see the point. Lets just say Benteke was to pick up an injury which ruled him out for three months. Who would lead the line in the same way which wouldn't force a complete change of style? Helenius isn't quite up to it yet. He'll take time plus he isn't strong enough to play that role yet. The other attacking options are all smaller guys with pace. It makes perfect sense to want another strong attacking option. You are talking about a creative midfield player but if you get the ball to Gabby or Weimann then you have as much creativity there as you need. In a perfect world then maybe a creative midfielder would be a good addition - in fact I agree it would be another good option to have - but if you can only sign one then I know what type of player I would much rather have. You can't all of a sudden change every aspect of your play and what the players are all used to the second the focal point of your attacks is injured. It makes more sense to have a player who can do a similar job - and I'm not saying he is exactly the same as Benteke or as good but he is big, powerful and will be a real handful for defenders. I'm thinking next summer is when we will start adding one or 2 of real quality, In Lambert we trust, a plan which is actually taking shape finally!
  4. No he's not a typical #10 by any stretch. But if you can, rewatch the last few games, and note how deep he's been coming. I honestly think he's going to be deployed behind the front 3 Over the last few games he already has been though He also does occasionally pull off an audacious flick, pass etc though.
  5. In the Birmingham Mail now, seems a goer!
  6. Don't we already have 4 strikers though? Although as pointed out already we sorta play with 3. (Forgot Bowery:5)
  7. Whats his twitter address? I want to check it out.
  8. Thought the same, maybe just not up to full match fitness yet? The way everyone was waxing lyrical about his pace I expect him to win those. I remember thinking at that point, if that was Gabby he would have had that! (when he knocked it forward and tried to beat his man)
  9. Bacuna, defo a better RB than midfielder, Westwoods passing was Superb, great overall performance. Hope we don't fall to pieces against Newcastle, we need to play with that confidence and poise. As most have been saying though, we need someone who can slice through teams in the final third when teams sit back!
  10. Nah mate it's defo left foot, right foot, head!
  11. normally thats a goal but mignolet saved it... One thing I've noticed, and correct me if i'm wrong. It seems as if he prefers going for the more difficult angles (which is is usually good at to be honest) as a pose to the big empty space. For the Mignolet save I thought he should have gone at the wide goalmouth but as usual chose the near post acute angle.
  12. Cardiff battering Man City 3-1. Wow. Off topic I know.
  13. Hopefully we'll get better, seriously tired of us constanstly conceding before 10 minutes every game. We might as well start game with a one goal disaDVANTAGE!
