So taking players off Norwich is equivalent to taking jobs off rednecks...can't argue with that

Its funny how they get so high and mighty about us taking their player when they have stripped Leeds of all their good players. They should take a look at: http://www.ftbpro.com/posts/rob.atkinson/477232/if-leeds-united-don-t-go-up-let-s-hope-norwich-city-go-down

Yeah don't make sense they would wait until we played west brom since west brom are in the relegation scrap too.

Signing him will be a positive for us (mainly to help reduce the hoof ball) but anything over 2 million is a waste of money that could be put towards a better signing.

Would be good if he could play a little this season so the season isn't a complete write off for him. Give him much needed experience and some confidence back.

Is this guy going to return this year? Hes become just another problem with his injuries and seems to have helped reduce our purchasing power due to his high wages. If we can get him back this year give him a run of games and try to ship him out in the summer unless he comes back with an appetite.

A big money bid for Robert Snodgrass?? When has he ever been a big money player? I believe Norwich payed like 1.5mil for him and he's not done much in the premier league to warrant much more than that fee. We need to stay away from Norwich or else we will waste good money on mediocrity rather then small amounts.

yes but I think it's fair to say that the intention has always been to do the majority of business in summer. McLeish spent big on N'Zogbia, Given & Hutton; while Lambert has brought in 7 or 8 in both of his summers. in fact, throughout Lerner's reign the only times we've spent big in January are in Houllier's reign where Bent was signed to keep us up and O'Neill's first season with Carew and Young (as he had not had much time in the summer to buy players). never expected us to spend much this January as we're not in a position that requires panic. suspect we'll see Hoolahan sign on deadline day: a relatively cheap addition and a couple of loans would be par for previous January windows. . I think you're being too rational it's a transfer window and anything other than hysteria and outright rage are not allowed. So just to join this... I can't believe we haven't gone and got Pennant on a free can't we compete with the Job Centre!!! If we take Pennant on loan from the Job Centre do we have to subsidise his jobseekers allowance?

Im friendly with this guy believe it or not believe it or not. Cant get hold of him tonight though. Feck sakes. Sure....and I know Santa Claus. Is it to late to ask him for an attacking midfielder?

What about Remy? Need to refresh more often :/

What do you mean due to the food he ate?

Apart from Remy there can't be many championship sides loaning players to a premier league side.

1mill fee and 15k wages seems about right for Hoolahan.

Looking at the other scores, I think this is the biggest shock of the 3rd round (not to villa fans who have watched this all season though).

Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right.

His technique is OK. I just think he should have noticed by now that when the guy he is aiming for (mostly Kozak) heads it down, there is nobody within 10 yards to pick it up, so it goes straight back to the opposition, which puts Guzan back under pressure within 10 seconds.... This is true, but it's not Guzan's fault, cause if he'd pass to someone closer to him he'd get the ball back within seconds, so eventually he'd need to hoof it. True, he passes it to Luna, he gets out muscled and guzan is 1v1.

I agree with most of that but would change - Okore - Was good enough and quick enough to compensate for inexperience - Hit (can't blame lambert or him for the injury) Vlaar - I rated this guy since he always made the difference in our defence when he played and a player we desperately need - Hit Bacuna - Think he could be good in other positions, definitely no full back though - Undecided Kozak - Main problem was buying Helenius AND Kozak, what is with that?? If the reported 4-5mil fee is true i would edge towards maybe a hit Can't argue with the rest though.

He got lucky last season with Benteke saving his ass, won't happen this season.

Its time to accept this is not working and something needs to change fast.

Get the **** out NOW

HAHAHAHAAA DESERVED

67% possession and 0 attempts on target LOL

He was very good in general play when compared to Benteke's recent performances. Maybe but i'm not going to knock Benteke. He kept us in the league last season so if anyone's earned a bit of backing/faith during a lean spell it's him. All players deserve backing from their supporters. Yes they do. I think that transfer request has led to some people quickly jumping on his poor form and singling him out.

Its not what Lambert thought. Lambert is backed into a corner, he can't publicly criticise young players it will destroy them but probably should give them a kick up the ass in private.

There is not much to go on apart from the name Aleksander Tonev sounds like he could be a good player . Which i think Lambert has done :S
