TheTetteyRole 0 Posted July 11, 2015 Where were Mulumbu and Tettey today? Thought hat partnership would be experimented with. Or at least try out our new signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheTetteyRole 0 Posted July 11, 2015 I like the idea. Okay they''ve fought in the past, but if that was behind them then no one could break that partnership. One could be deciplined and the other could roam a bit. Great if we were 1 up at Sunderland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrs miggins 0 Posted July 11, 2015 The thought of Tettey roaming around the pitch looking for space reminds me of when Adams was here when playing with BJ alongside him....sends shivers up my spine... don''t know if thats too much of an exaggeration.

Horse Renoir 1 Posted July 11, 2015 Having a trial for Gorleston reserves, he didn''t impress I hear. They liked his name but were put off by the fact he can''t pass, control or run with a football Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highland Canary 76 Posted July 11, 2015 Grabban needed far too many chances per goal. He would be lost in the PL. We need to sell/loan RvW, Lafferty and Grabban and invest in a new starting striker, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hucks6 169 Posted July 11, 2015 Certainly not living in his old house just off Yarmouth Road because Jerome is living in it so is probably staying in hotel somewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chicken 0 Posted July 11, 2015 Here we go again. The stat fighters who don''t know how to use more than one stat.Grabban had more chances per game than Jerome.Lets think about this for a few minutes.Ah, yes, does that suggest that Grabban get''s into goal scoring positions more often? Well that''s actually what the stats suggest . . . . Make of that what you will. If Grabban was needing more shots and was getting the same amount of chances per game, then I''d worry, but the fact that he is getting so many chances a game suggests that his hard work is paying dividends.As for his touch and passing. I quite enjoyed both and for me, he is the 2nd best overall striker currently at the club after Jerome.Hooper, who people bang on about, for me, doesn''t have the pace or ability to stretch defenses in the way that Grabban does, nor does he have the strength and height that Jerome has. Yes he is arguably the best finisher, but I feel his all round game didn''t fit with the way we played last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has trained with the squad and the other international players because he came back a bit later. He is part of the squad and he will be involved the same as them. I know as much as you do about the Lisbon interest. As far as I am aware nothing is happening right now. He is a Norwich player, and when he becomes available he will in the mix to be picked.”It is a strange statement on the face of it, because van Wolfswinkel''s season finished earlier than anyone else''s. St-Etienne''s last league game was on May 23, which was two days before the play-off final and a full fortnight before the Euro qualifying internationals for such as Tettey, Martin and Hoolahan.

Rock The Boat 1,329 Posted July 12, 2015 So presumably, from that information, he was told not to report back to CR on 1st July along with the rest of the squad but to come in later when the international players returned.Make of that what you will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But against that he was hardly getting much game time with St-Etienne in the last third or quarter of the season, often being an unused sub. He certainly didn''t have the strenuous end of the season most of our players had. From a purely footballing point of view an extra-long break wouldn''t seem justified. And would not look like a sign he was figuring in the manager''s plans for the coming season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''d be looking at the root cause of the problem, ie those running the club.It remains to be seen if the recent measures implemented, ie McNally''s football board, actually prove to be effective in preventing these sorts of transfer mishaps. It seems that the whole thing has been poorly thought through, as evidenced by some of last season''s questionable dealings.On paper it''s a good idea, but I''m sceptical of its implementation. I see the football board as being a means for McNasty to interfere in the football side of things, rather than serving its proper footballing purpose.

Angry - reading obviously not your strong point - this appears to indicate that Wolf more concernced with money than football ?Portuguese sports paper, A Bola, reported on Wednesday night discussions between van Wolfswinkel and his old club had now stopped after the parties were unable to agree on the striker’s salary demands.

lharman7 39 Posted July 13, 2015 Would anyone here like to take a pay cut of there wages?Im suspecting that RVW may have been back at the club but not entirely involved due to the fact the club thought they had sold him.Why is it that people always think there is more to it?Sporting obviously wouldn''t match his NCFC wages so he may have then thought "oh well, with a new manager at the club i might as well knuckle down and try to impress him and actually play some premier league football!''.It could just be that simple!
