    I agree that he needs time to settle, but I think the bold is a stretch for a French person playing in England

    I’m giving Kendrick the benefit of the doubt on this one, if he’s saying that he’s out then I take his word for it.

    Why would Tuanzebe leave United’s bench for ours?
  4. Woody1000
    Well if the last few weeks are anything to go by, that’s a 0-0 at best tonight then!

    I appreciate that there is a strong possibility that it would’ve gone another time, or been a similar leg injury, but it looks now that Ross’ season changed in that Brighton game. Not worth the fee, I just hope this doesn’t upset Jack as he was a big factor in this signing in the first place.

    I think this is a key thing to remember when we’re wetting the bed over our current form, we are moving in the right direction as a team and as a club, and a massive part of that is down to Dean Smith.

    Absolutely f***ing delighted for Ollie. Seems like a really nice kid, and shows where hard work can get you. Let’s hope he gets some minutes in at least one of the games, that would take us to 76 players to have represented England, 2nd only to Spurs with 78.

    I honestly don’t understand the shit that El Ghazi gets, he’s clearly a confidence player and had a cracking December to then find himself dumped from the team. For what we paid, for a squad player, I honestly don’t know what fans want? This isn’t a computer game like FIFA or FM where you can stockpile top quality players at Aston Villa who are happy to be back-up, it’s not feasible or realistic.

    There’s a lot of bed wetting going on. We’re on a bad run, we’ve been on a bad run since Burnley away but luckily we have picked up points along the way. DS has finished the season strong the last 2 years, if he can do it again then we will have a Top 8/Top 10 finish. Anyone who was expecting more than that after a relegation battle last year has too high an expectation of how quickly a team can progress. I appreciate that there is an argument to say that we could’ve been in the mix for Europe if we’d won some of the winnable games that we’ve lost this season, but then we’ve also won a lot of games that on paper we lose. The truth is that we’re not good enough YET.

    You could’ve put this in the Ross Barkley thread also

    Why? Name 3 players who performed worse than Nakamba last Saturday?
  12. Woody1000
    Christ on a bike, it’s as bad as Twitter on here!! Dougie is quality, he just had a bit of a dip but he will be back to that player. He was the least deserving of the drop from our midfield 3 on Saturday if you ask me, based on match performances anyway, but I fully expect him to come back in for Brighton.

    I find it interesting that you find Everton’s interest interesting

    John Terry

    Woody1000 replied to Farlz's topic in Other Football

    Pretty much said the exact same things to my old man today!

    While I admire his work rate, but he always looks a bit like a puppy off the leash to me when he comes off the bench. The problem as mentioned is that Traore possesses certain quality which unfortunately Trez does not. From what we’ve seen this season, if Traore is on form then no way does Trez start.

    We are the most improved team in this league by a country mile. Are we going to end up in a situation that a 9th or 10th place finish this season is going to be seen as failure?
  17. Woody1000
    Would I have made some substitutions earlier last night? Yes Amount of games I’ve won as a Premier League manager? None!

    I just think making jokes about incidents where people have died is in bad taste, so I called it out. I don’t want to sound like a snowflake, it didn’t offend me.
  20. Woody1000
    Just listened to the claret and blue podcast, Nakamba completed 64 of his 65 passes Saturday night!! I would still start McGinn tonight, but Nakamba has proven himself to be an option.
  21. Woody1000
    That’s really poor taste
  22. Woody1000
    Another player who last season was inconsistent, but has seen the level we play at now and has raised his game. Would still start McGinn against Burnley, but I think most fans are currently satisfied with Nakamba as backup if he can produce performances like last night whenever he is called upon.
  23. Woody1000
    Financially we’ve played a blinder. I worried a bit tbh that we looked a little small time after the “pathetic” bid in the week, but we’ve got a 26 year old player who was playing in the CL this season for a great price.
  24. Woody1000
    Unfortunately. I’m quite pleased with the reported fee on this as even if Hourihane goes on a permanent deal in the summer, I doubt we’d get more than £7m-£8m for him. Like you said, the recruitment team have earned our trust over the last 12 months so we will have to wait and see.....
  25. Woody1000
    I admire your optimism Trent, you really think we will give him until half time?
