  1. A Real good No.9......... Benzema Wasn't Sinclair No.9 and RDM didn't really want him to go.
  2. I wonder if Traore is our Maverick / Enigma player. Bring him on in a forward position and say "go get em son". Hopefully a solid CF like Hernandez, Bamford or such. Shame we didn't make Defoe happen.
  3. Havent seen him play for a while, he's been pushed down the Belgium pecking order a bit.
  4. Agent D says Defour going to Burnley, could mean the end of their pursuit of Westwood. Not convinced they were ever after him if they had Defour on their mind.
  5. A partial quote it may be, but the contextual information of situation and world view not being present lead it to being taken out of its situational context. There are different ways of taking things out of context, we do it all the time. If you remove some reasoning it can easily change how people see your statement and thus change its context.
  6. Agree with this. Think this is the issue, not their ability.
  7. If he only used a partial quote without the rest of the statement, that's taking it out of context.
  8. Saw that, he didn't look happy at all during the game.
  9. It is; coaching is teaching, development is teaching, tactic are taught, mentality can be learned and football titles can be earned through learning. I have issues with some over privileged A Level students from time to time, so lots of similarities. Else what is it? Why have academies? Why get developmental players? Why bother with experienced players (life long learnng)? life is learning
  10. I'm a teacher, you get the students you do and judged on your results. If you dismiss human nature from your students then they won't achieve. I believe he will get better - can't get any worse right....
  11. Look at his appearance record from 2012, it's probably a mixture of injury, replaced by Zabaleta etc. But he barely played for years despite being on their books and ruined confidence (man citied). Almost 2 years out of regular football.
  12. Lol (sorry for the text speak but I actually did). Richards though was Man Citied, like Ireland and Michael Johnson. There is a really good player in there, but he should not be captain......ever........ever.
  13. Of course we would, he's a tax dodging, luxury player who could raise the team spirit of a self-raising cake mixture. We need spirit, we need character, we need more Elphicks!
  14. @StefanAVFC let's not quote out of context In a team where morale is high, drive to succeed is in gear and a team work ethic is in place these footballers would be welcome additions. Okore has known defeat for most of his Villa career, Richards has had the man city treatment. It's a mental disorder and will take time to overcome. More experienced, solid examples will help build that confidence again.
  15. Incidentally I don't think getting rid of Richards or Okore is a good idea. I think getting in players who can help rebuild them stronger is what's needed. Sinclair only scored on his debut for Celtic as they are a team of title winners. In all honesty I watched that game and Celtic were lucky to win but that's what confidence brings. Price is one measure, technical skill is another - I really want players of mental fortitude. More like Elphick!
  16. Confidence plays a big part in games like this. We don't have it.
  17. Chester, Ledley et al. Are looking a good shout at the minute. Okore looked like he wanted to leave the field injured, Richards has no leadership qualities. We need some players of mental strength to be able to position players, organise them and encourage them. Passing, interceptions, tackling stats mean sweet F A without the mental strength that goes with them. That's why I don't miss Gana.
  18. Midfield is where we are weak sadly, so feel it's been the biggest impact. If we could get another DM or a solid CM by the weekend that would be great.
  19. That's what I think. Can't imagine Dr Tone getting excited by Ledley or Jedinak
  20. It can't just be one person, it's a constant stream of stuff from most Premier League / some EFL clubs. I guessed in my head last night Riley went to Batth, just was hoping he got a new job there
  21. Takes a bit of time to run though.... Dave is just repeating the B'Ham Mail - Dave out!
