villa89 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Will only get better I think as season goes on and finally become player we expected when he joined. ...and then leave when his contract expires . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Thought we looked much better today without him. Better team ethic and workrate. Long may it continue. If ireland is back in Tuesday I hope he rolls his sleeves up and does the business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swerbs Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I think in that 3rd midfield spot, Lambert should rotate between Ireland and Holman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hope to see Ireland in place of KEA on Tuesday. And Bent in for Weimann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted November 24, 2012 Moderator Share Posted November 24, 2012 I think in that 3rd midfield spot, Lambert should rotate between Ireland and Holman. One works hard and has little ability, the other has ability but not enough work rate. If only we could combine the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Holman showed a bit more ability today to be fair to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjParton Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I think KEA should be replaced with Ireland. It just seems to work better for me - KEA looked really good in pre season but has tailed off which is a shame. Ireland in vs Reading for me.

dont_do_it_doug. Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I was surprised he didn't appear around 60 minutes yesterday as we started to take a hold. He could have tipped the game for us. Also he works no more or less than Bannan and for my money he offers slightly more in the Libero role. Admittedly I'd like them both to be on the pitch as often as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lost Ireland we'd be doing well to replace him with the money saved considering we'd have to pay a fee also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends really - I guess he's on about 65k a week, over three years that's just over 10mil. Meaning we could spend 5mil on a player and give him 30k a week for the money.

8pints Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'd like to see him in there with Westwood and El Ahmadi for Reading, see how that trio plays. Ireland brings a good shape to the midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villaboy69 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Its a sign of how poor I think we have become - even I a serial SI disliker wanted his inclusion against Arsenal and hope that he is included tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Needs to start against Reading. Maybe that was Lambert's thinking all along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 If we can shift him to someone like QPR for around 5 or 6M I would bite their hands off and be thrilled about what Lamber could do with that considering what he has found so far for less than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
