PompeyVillan Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 God I love Stevie Ireland. He will be out most important player this season. Everything he did towards the end of last season points to him being successful under Paul Lambert. He worked hard for the team and was the only player who always looked forward, he was just too far ahead of his team mates and the system to be effective. At the very least if his work ethic is the same then he'll give himself a great chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 There's no real quality on the bench for us, if we're in the shit, i.e. a goal down with 20 minutes to go, there's no one on that bench that can come on and change the game, that's a real worry for me because he aren't gonna just show up and 'see West Ham off'. It's going to be a very tough and competitive game. Bannan can add a spark, Weimann can score a goal. I'm not concerned by the bench. The first team could do with a little strengthening, but the bench worries me less. Hmm well I hope if we are in the shit late on then it'll be Bannan crossing for Weimann to score. I like Weimann, I don't like Bannan that much. I don't think they can be banked on as game changers at all though. All that said, it is early days and Lambert does have a big job in changing this team. There's problems all over the gaff and as you say, the bench isn't the biggest problem we have. I think the defence is our major problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Charlie Nicholas & Merson still banging on about how Mcleish wasn't given a chance. Unbelievable They're **** idiots. All they have to do is look out our league position and see why we didn't like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 18, 2012 Moderator Share Posted August 18, 2012 We might be about to find out who Collins didn't like. There could be a red card in this one for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 i find it worrying that PL thinks Delph is a DM... his tackling isn't even that good let alone his distribution to start off attacks... he is a winger all day long and not a great one at that... Herd should be in there ?? Delph is not a winger. tell that to leeds fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Must admit our team looks weak, especially the full back positions, fingers crossed, in Lambert we trust? Lets see how they do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delph and Collins to get into it? Maybe thats why Lambert gave him the nod over Bannan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I don't agree that he's a winger, but I'm not sure he's a great central midfielder, but he's never really had a run in the team to find out.
