  1. Unfortunately for you mate, as a fellow fan on an internet forum, my opinion has about equal weight as yours. I just happen to think how players carry themselves as 30yr old grown men is as equally important as what they produce on the pitch.
  2. I couldn't care less about his stats He's a word removed
  3. To be honest, unless you're a Sun journalist, I really don't get what's so difficult to understand. There are generally 30-50 coaches and tens of teams at large clubs all the way from juniors through to the first team, and someone needs to oversee this, the coaching, the sports science, the scouting network etc.
  4. Oversees all coaching and player development from kids through to the first team. Ensures there is a unified structure all the way through (eg. There is no point the u9s playing 4231 counter attack if the first team is playing 442 tiki taka). Makes sure relevant coaches are hired to implement this. I imagine all the sports science stuff falls under his remit too. Basically all the stuff the manager shouldn't have to do so he can focus on the first team.
  5. Straight from the horse's mouth
  6. OMG 25 PASS MOVE CAPPED OFF WITH A BACUNA CROSS AND MACCORMACK BIKE AGAINST THE CROSSBAR... WHAT A CHANCE! psych!

    Mile Jedinak

    He 100% categorically will not be that type of player. He captains his country for a reason

    Mile Jedinak

    It's Mee-leh Comes from his Croatian heritage. Many post-war immigrant families gave their kids anglo names officially to help them fit in, but wouldn't surprise me if Mile was the name his family actually used growing up
  9. So Rijkaard was a hoax at Barcelona, and Bendtner is a good player that just needs to be loved? I despair...

    Mile Jedinak

    As an Aussie I watch him regularly... leadership wise he's outstanding, a great presence in the middle of the park. Technically, I would say he's a good midfielder for a bottom half PL side, and I get the impression that Palace have aspirations for more than that since their American investment (ie. someone to partner Cabaye). I would take him at Villa in a heartbeat, if only because he would smack Gabby about for being a prick.
  11. Agree. I think a 4-3-1-2 Ancelotti style would be even better. 1 midfield enforcer, 2 central guys turning things over and Grealish in the hole behind the front two. Gollini De Laet Elphick Chester Amavi Jedinak Tish. Westwood Grealish Ayew. RMac Looks pretty solid to me
  12. Get out of this club you shit word removed
  13. That is a controversial double substitution... Errrr robbie
  14. To be fair 14th in Serie A is feasible to be competing with in today's money... this isn't the 90's anymore
  15. I think you're reading too much into the phrasing. I'm think he just means the midfielder Xia referred to yesterday
  16. Did you watch the game? Alongside Elphick, his shot stopping, high balls & kicking (until that point) had basically EARNED us a point. Would have been 9 or 10 until that point. Not bad for a 22 yr old on debut. If it was a Guzan mistake I would agree but I was very impressed with his all-round game for a young keeper
  17. I think more interesting than Hernandez is a few twitterati including MyOldManSaid alluding to Gareth Barry...
  18. Wait, I'm not clear... Does Hernandez have a release clause or not?
  19. Err how do you figure that? I said the bid wasn't officially public ie. In the media. I didn't say it wasn't official.
  20. I'm not sure our bid is officially public so I guess he's just covering himself
  21. He really is just a wing back. Kick and chase to beat the man, good crossing, average defending, contribute the odd goal etc - these are his attributes. If he stopped dicking about with delusions of grandeur and just focused on one position and putting in hard work in the mould of some of the great wing backs like Cafu, Zanetti and Roberto Carlos then he could actually be a decent player. **** if he even got to the level of Elmohamady I would be happy. (Note I said decent, not good or amazing)
