This is not going to happen

I'd rather we opened the purse strings and bought Ben Arfa

I think the goal celebrations and the hard working performances answer that question.

I would love to do that

You could also look at it like this- Last year we desperately needed Benteke's goals This year we are eleventh without them, It's going to be great when he starts scoring again ( it will happen) All good points DL. Yes so far we haven't been as reliant on Benteke as last season but I think the worry is that we are still struggling to break teams down when they sit back not allowing us to counter attack especially at home. We have also a tough run of fixtures coming up which could see us drop into the bottom six after not picking up enough points through our easier run of fixtures. That being said, due to the unpredictability of our team performances we could pick up more points than expected through these difficult fixtures just like at the start of the season but I'm not hopeful that's going to happen? While I think we are in the mix to get relegated, there are definitely three worse teams than us. As for the attacking , well I think PL and his staff have tried to get more clean sheets than score goals. The victory at Arsenal found them a way to win matches and he has stuck with it. He is desperately trying to stay away from more 0-8, 0-4 defeats and constantly picks three def mids. el Ahmadi is a prime example of a player who never gives up. ( he is not good enough though) I would also love us to get a bums of seats player but if I was the manager I would keep to the plan and find a better left back for starters. There is a long way to go before we can total football our way to three points.

He is exactly what we need.

Bennett did well at the end of the season. I hope he is given time to get fully fit before being thrown in again. Luna in my opinion is what we have seen. I can't see him getting better there is no talent. Bennett I think can improve and was showing that.

The news here in the Danish paper Ekstra Bladet ( like the sun), though a little more reliable) is that we want Copenhagens speedy American left back Chip Bargayne.

His CM partner, Fahkin Nouwhan is better. Lambert has already signed him

Who does he play for?

Marin would be a sub at best

Debeetles FC

He has a song though

All my troubles seemed so far away! Apologies, a little bored here in Denmark

Paper talk here in Denmark says Villa closing in on talentful midfielder Jes Tadej

Where is the article? And yes our defence is poor. A couple of new defenders are needed. IMO

I do believe we are better than West Ham

We should buy Downing and stick him at left back

West Ham are playing with the longest team I have seen for ages. So much space.

I personally think the fonz is an ok backup for Benteke and could also do a job instead of Gabby if injured.

I think you also have to throw this into the mix. We lost 8-0 last year when we played a totally open game against Chelsea. We're the fans happy? Of course not. He has changed it this year so we are definitely harder to beat. Using our strengths to counter attack. Are the fans happy? Still no, the football is poor. He is working with pittance. Hoping the youngsters come good (Bale). Building a team that is hard to beat. He needs time. It's a tough job.

Lambert should stick to his plans. If Hoolahan etc are not part of these plans I think we shouldn't buy them. Save the money for class player you want.

I saw that game against Denmark live. Tonev was outstanding.

Making me feel better
