The boy was one of the outstanding performers in the championship last season, certainly ran rings around our lot!!. And I would hazard a guess that like me you know very little if anything about Sammy Clingan.The only thing I agree with you about is how do we go about taking the step to the next level. Money talks these days and we simply dont have enough.....A decent cup run might help though, been a long time since we have had one of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spudgfsh 0 Posted July 24, 2008 Ignoring the fact that this post does not make any sense you can classify most professional footballers in one of the followingA - World class - would walk into one of the major clubs and command a starting place every weekB - Prem Class - would walk into one of the other premiership clubs and command a starting place every weekC - Journeyman Prem - goes from prem club to prem club but not being a first pick on the team sheet. Would walk into a championship side thoughD - Championship Class - one of the main players at a championship club who may play for relegation fodder prem teams.E - Journeyman Championship - one of the players around a champ team who is not necessarily fist pick and would not be likely to play in the premF - League 1 Class - not capable of playing in the championship.etc...Now, with that said we have had a history in recent years of buying players from the E list and wondering why we are not doing well. We now have players from the C and D list coming in some of the with the potential to be Bs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These players certainly aren''t from List Q, the likes of Stefanovic and Omosuzi don''t/didn''t play at a Premiership side for no reason (Fulham aren''t exactly newbies to the Premiership now either). Hoolahan had a good season by reports that I have heard, and if Roeder can get the creative talent out of Lupoli he could take the Championship by storm, feeding other players in and general link up play with the other forward, with that extra bit of quality. One musn''t forget Clingan either, Worthy rates him (not sure if that means anything but I thought I''d post it anyway) and he was liked and wanted at Nottingham Forest. We all know that Bertrand has that bit of quality that can make him stand out brightly on his day, and he was very composed and good on the ball all of last season when we had him (apart from Sheffield Wednesday away). I know that he had more protection last season from the midfield having 3 midfielders and just one winger so we are really yet to see his true defensive ability, but he struck me as a class act when I saw him play at home to Bury when he made his Norwich debut, and he isn''t on Chelsea''s books for nothing.

For that you need a Harry Redknapp....and Roeder will never be a Harry as long as he has a hole in his arse.....[/quote] i) Describing our incoming players as ''ordinary'' is just idiotic. Hoolihan interested many other championship clubs, they all can''t be chasing an ''ordinary'' player... Lupoli, once on the books of Arsenal, who have the one of the best records of recruiting young talent. Lupoli also did well on loan at Derby and Norwich were vying for his signature along with Serie A side Udinese and Siena, hardly ''ordinary.'' Sammy Clingon was offered a new contract at Nottingham Forest who are splashing the cash and by all accounts many of their fans were gutted to see him go, again hardly ''ordinary''. Elliot Omozusi, on loan from premiership Fulham and is highly thoughtof at Fulham, hardly ''ordinary''. Stefanovic, a Serbian international, who premiership Fulham paid £1million for only a year ago, previously playing for premiership Portsmouth, hardly ''ordinary.'' David Bell impressed whilst on loan at Championship side Leciester last season despite the turmoil at the club, hardly ''ordinary''. And finally Ryan Bertrand is on loan from the Premier league runners up, Champions league runner''s up Chelsea. Also he ws on loan here last season and I would say if you couldn''t see his obivious class then you must be blind, but you probably don''t go to games. Hardly ''ordinary'' again is it?ii) Have you ever listend to Glenn Roeder''s team talks? No? Didn''t think so. He has manged Premiership sides West Ham and Newcastle. Arsene Wenger rates him and Glenn Roeder is well respected within the coaching community. Just because he doesn''t shout his mouth of and play up to the media like Redknapp, that doesn''t make him a bad manager. I am not the dreamer who hangs on Cullum''s every whim. I am a realist who can see that the incoming players are far better than ''ordinary''. Whilst in an ideal world we would love to have Cullum''s millions, we haven''t got them.

Stevie Wonder 0 Posted July 24, 2008 I''m not convinced we are entirely on List Q. Certainly Bell & Hoolahan were pretty much the first players mentioned at the end of the season and Bertrand was here last year so again hardly list Q. No idea about Owusumi (?) and what list he was on. Clingan was signed relatively early which again is not indicative of anything more than List B. Stefanovic I will give you as more likely to be second or third choice behind Taylor and maybe Gorkks but he is proven premiership quality. Lupoli could be from any list as he is a rather "leftfield" signing.Who was on Roeder''s A and B lists then? No-one obvious has moved on and only really Evans is likely to be unavailable.A lot hinges on what striker(s) we bring in before the window closes. Most people were looking at maybe a £2/3 million budget for transfer of which I would guess there may be £1/£1.5M left. If we sell a Croft or a Russell and Lappin then that may be nearer £2.5M which would be enough to secure Rasiak/Amoebi and Rigters.Much depends on how so many new players gell as if we sign amother new striker then from a likely 1st choice 11 only 4 of them are likely to have been here last year - Marshall, Bertrand/Drury, Doc/Shackell and Russell/Fozzie. We saw last year how the failure to gel a lot of new players together can have disastrous results and not of all Grants summer buys were total rubbish (Marshall, Otsemebor, Russell, Cureton).

Grant definetly was a yes-Delia man, looking back he tried failed and left with diginity. Roeder on the other hand i was initially gutted to get, but he saved us from the brink and the team hes putting together looks strong, much stronger than last pre season and i''m getting stupidly over optimistic that we may give spurs a run for their money.
