  1. For me it’s: Krul Marshall Hanley Klose Stiepermann Godfrey Trybull Hernández Leitner MacLean Pukki DF seems to have gone off Stiepermann as a left back but I think he’s our best option assuming Lewis is injured and with Husband having had a poor pre-season. Would be unfair to stick Aarons in given he’s always played on the right. Don’t think he’ll risk Rhodes from the start, but expect him to come on if we’re chasing a goal. If Leitner still looks like he’s struggling to get into his rhythm then Buendía, who’s looked impressive, could come on to give us some forward momentum.
  2. Rudd Wisdom Bennett Klose Olsson Mulumbu O''Neil Redmond Hoolahan Brady Naismith We miss Wes when he''s not in the team and I''m not convinced Naismith is a natural number 10. Harsh on Mbokani but he''d be a threat from the bench.
  3. Is he injured again? Seems very strange that he''s not been closer to the first team picture of late.
  4. Well done to him, he''s had an excellent season ever since Adams (to his credit) realised that he''s far more effective pressing high up the pitch. My only concern is the length of this deal, if we really aspire to establish ourselves back in the Premier League in the next three years. Johnson is a very committed player and has some quality at Championship level but his technical deficiencies were (and probably will be) exposed in the top flight. Hope he proves me wrong though!
  5. Rivalry or not, this is a massive game for both teams. If we win, I think it''s just 7 teams going for promotion. Wolverhampton isn''t the nicest of places but there is a hint of snobbery in some people''s attitudes here. They have their fair share of dick head fans, yes, but so do we. The interesting thing about Wolves is how their closest rivals, West Brom, have one of the most welcoming sets of fans in the league. I would argue that the problem isn''t down to the area, but rather delusions of grandeur on Wolves'' part.
  6. Would like to see this: Ruddy Whittaker Martin Bassong Olsson Tettey Andreu Howson Bennett Jerome Redmond AN favoured a similar system at Hamilton, would be good to see Howson and Andreu getting into goal scoring positions, with Jerome our best striker with his back to goal laying it off to them. Wes, Hooper, Grabban and Murphy all good impact subs. Could play another DM away from home (Johnson or O''Neill if fit).
  7. [quote user="Goss93"]I''ve been in touch with a couple of Kansas City fans on Twitter, here''s what they had to say:Sean Wheelock (also MLS expert on 5live''s World Football Phone-in:"Just saw this news as well. He is very consistent--solid--good positionally. 8-10 goals for full season is realistic.""Needs a partner up top for sure. Great guy off the pitch--really likeable. Will fit in very well"Tyler Calmus:"He''s a prototypical right-winger with good pace and feet, good delivery, and excellent in the air. Tends to spray shots though."With this in mind, I doubt Hughton plans to play him up front by himself, as a stand-in for Holt in our current 4-2-3-1 system. He does however give us more options, and if he chips in with 1 or 2 goals it''ll be a good signing I reckon. I can see him coming off the bench for Pilks or Wessi to give us more of an aerial presence towards the end of games if we''re behind.[/quote]Also Tyler tells me he currently plays on the right of a 4-3-3 system for SKC - this, I think, is a more likely alternative system for us to use than the outdated 4-4-2.

  9. I''ve been reading this message board for a long time - and I have seen plenty of idiotic comments - but never have I seen so many as this evening.And so begins my first ever post to the much vaunted Pink ''Un message board...I know us football fans are a fickle lot, but some of you really do take the biscuit. Today''s result was depressing, yes, embarassing, yes, but ultimately it was proof that the romance of the FA cup hasn''t died. Luton came to Carrow Road with a game plan, executed it, and showed that above all, football is just 11 men vs 11 men. They''ll go back to playing in the conference next week, we, on the other hand, will go back to playing in one of the best leagues in the world. In that league, we are currently 13th, 7 points clear of the relegation zone. Not bad for a team that only came up last season.I read somewhere that the club is at an "all time low". Need I remind you that four years ago, we were in League 1? If we''re at an "all time low", I wonder how fans of Leeds, Ipswich,Wolves or Coventry (all similar size clubs to us) feel?Earlier this week, we were linked with one of the hottest talents in European football, Ricky Van Wolfswinkel. Perhaps Chris Hughton spent more time this week in the transfer market than preparing for the Luton match. I for one am prepared to be knocked out of the FA Cup if the trade-off is signing players of this calibre.I don''t doubt that the last few months of the season will be tough, but there are definitely 3 worse teams than us in the Premier League. QPR were losing 4-0 at home to the Mac Dons earlier. Villa are in freefall. Southampton have got a new manager who barely speaks English. Reading and Wigan struggle to pick up points at the best of times.In conclusion, please look at the bigger picture.PS. Hughton out?! Seriously? It seems some of you want us to become the laughing stock of English football.
