  1. We only played 5-3-2 for about 10 mins before Baker went off. After that it was 4-4-2 with Delph on the left. Not sure if Luna crossed the half way line.
  2. It's a very low risk signing - basically if he's not required to play due to players being fit/in good form, then he'd be a relative success. How much lower could expectations go? If he actually scores a goal he'd be a grand slam or something.
  3. Fair enough, that's the most logical conclusion, but using the same logic, do you believe we'll get a cover for Okore finally?
  4. Losing the dressing room? Did you see the difference his team talk made in the second half against Arsenal? Couldn't disagree more with that notion. Someone should let him know he could give a team talk before kick off too.
  5. A good 2nd half, tbh. Let's hope it's like last season's 2nd half against Newcastle as a turning point.
  6. Yea but you could have a look at the great state of the club accounts and rejoice.
  7. Benteke will be much better when he gets better service. Actually any service. With the midfield we have we could have Ronaldo up front and he won't do anything chasing hoof balls all game.
  8. Apparently they have now denied it back to being a summer tournament. What a mess!
  9. Yes - that's why he tried playing Bacuna there ( I know it's off topic )
  10. I'm by no means anti Lambert ( except for the god awful football he makes us play ), but why use stats to compare to last season's first half? Surely it'd make more sense to compare this half season's stats to the stats from last season's second half as it is the immediately preceeding one. Or compare to the stats from McLeish's first half a season, as he was the previous manager.
  11. He's getting slaughtered by the media already. Deservedly so. Even a bit out of context, what he said was dumb, don't give them ammo.
  12. Because they actually can't play any other way, regardless of the competition? Must be something that happens on the training groud, coupled with the quality of the players.
  13. 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.
  14. Poor Guzan, not only is he bombarded every game and under pressure for 80% of the time, but he's now criticized for his distribution? Who's going to win them midfield arial battles? Westwood? Delph? KEA? His distribution is fine, problem is he usually gets more touches than our midfielders. Not only our goal keeper but the main playmaker too.
  15. Why did he have to? He could have kept Stevens, Lichaj, Delfouneso, Hutton ( still paying him ), Bannan, Ireland ( still paying him ), etc. Yes, they're all bad, but has he bought any better? He didn't have to buy 16 players imo.
  16. Enda and Lichaj were at least as good/bad as Bennett and Luna who cost 4 million pounds.
  17. McLambert. Embarassing. Good point though, against a team which is infinitely better.
  18. Delph always drops to cover the left back. At least he tries to. When he's missing other midfielders don't do it. KEA usually helps the right back.
  19. People said the same about Southampton this time last season. Not saying Cardiff will do the same and kick on. Hopefully they hire some Mongolian coach who's a friend of Tan's sister or something and they go down.
