  1. I honestly believe that if the deal was right he will renew, purely because of his obvous love for the club and supporters!
  2. Just out of curiousity, did Grabban celebrate his goal today, after scoring in front of the city fans?
  3. Dieumerci Mbokani''s contract is up at the end of the season...... ;)
  4. But its not just as simple as the budget, you have to take into account the general upheaval of the comings and goings within the squad. McCarthy might''ve done better, he might''ve done worse, we are merely speculating though aren''t we.
  5. Just wondered the general consensus of the WC squad, personally I''m quite a fan of the selection, and good to see Southgate not being the "Yes Man" like so many previous coaches and including youngsters and getting rid of the older players.. Goalkeepers: Jack Butland (Stoke), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Burnley). Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Fabian Delph (Manchester City), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Harry Maguire (Leicester), Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur), John Stones (Manchester City), Kieran Trippier (Tottenham Hotspur), Kyle Walker (Manchester City), Ashley Young (Manchester United). Midfielders: Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur), Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Jesse Lingard (Manchester United), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Chelsea). Forwards: Harry Kane (Tottenham), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Raheem Sterling (Manchester City), Jamie Vardy (Leicester), Danny Welbeck (Arsenal). Standby: Lewis Cook (Bournemouth), Tom Heaton (Burnley), Adam Lallana (Liverpool), Jake Livermore (West Brom), James Tarkowski (Burnley).
  6. [quote user="Making Plans"][quote user="lake district canary"]Oliveira in particular as a striker, has failed to deliver - and that is down to him, not the tactics>[/quote] So how come CJ couldn''t hit a barn door under Farke but is now scoring for fun again? Tactics me thinks[/quote]7 in 21 starts is hardly "scoring for fun". Having said that, I do wish our current crop could score at that rate of fun..
  7. [quote user="JF"]I see no relevance in a budget to how a manager prefers his team to play. That is Farkes preferred style of play and his teams would play that way if his budget were 100k or £100 million. The difference being that the quality and end product increases as the quality of player increases. Do we now believe that if Mick McCarthy had, had a huge budget at Ipswich then his team would have played a cultured game? Of cause they wouldn’t have, it would have been a far more effective long ball game with greater end product.[/quote]The budget makes no difference... look at Man city and give your head a shake..
  8. [quote user="CANARYKING"]LDC reckons we’re still in with a chance, well by the end of this period we will know : Brentford away , good footballing side, scores lots of goals - prediction loss Middlesbrough home, Pullis has been there two weeks and has already sorted them out, very hard to beat - prediction draw Derby away, got there act together now, you know what’s coming, goals by Cam and BJ- prediction loss Ipswich home, the run has got to end sometime, two big buggers up front- prediction loss Wolves away, only going to be one result here, Ruddy and Bennett will keep us out - prediction loss That’s one point out of fifteen, season over ![/quote]Well.. 3 of the 1 point predicted in the bag! OTBC!
  9. I''m quite intrigued to see how it all unravels! OTBC
  10. Just seen this has already been discussed, feel free to ignore!
  11. I see he''s picked up some mysterious injury getting out of his car?!Who do you replace him with? Does this injury change the dynamic or formation?
  12. I don''t undertsnad what makes them think these were expensive transfers. But it''s nice to know they are thinking of us, bless them!
  13. Seemingly a 7 figure bid rejected for him! Personally, I wouldn''t lose any sleep if he were to depart, as he''s not exactly shone thus far.
  14. His credit comes in the form of a big fat bonus every season, on top of his inflated salary package. #McNallyOUT
  15. Well that didn''t come out as I''d hoped... Basically Bennett & Olsson playing wing backs, with two holding midfielders, with Hooper and Redmond in behind CamJam!
  16. Having watched the dross performance against Brentford, it left me thinking what can AN do with the tactics to get the best out of the players? I came up with this.. don''t shoot me down right away... Ruddy Turner Bassong Cuellar E. Bennett Olsson Tettey Johnson Hooper Redmond Jerome I''m trying to think outside the box, and believe it could work, we seem to have the players capable of the positions. I''d be quite interested to hear others thoughts on it...
  17. Supposedly Bassong questioned the appointment of NA and didn''t want to play for him, so NA instructed the board not to sell, but to run his contract down and let him rot with the kids until his contract has been run down!
  18. Are many people going? Just having a look at tickets, you can either stand in the lower tier of the stand, or sit in the upper. Surely there will be more atmosphere standing?
  19. If you think for one second that the manager is the one who puts these players on the wages they''re on then you are deluded. A manager has a list of players he wants, the board then does the buying and negotiating of price, contract details.
