Seriously my son 18 years old hasn't missed a game at home for 7 years
Has told me he not going today now he has seen the team looking at the rain outside

Your son needs a clip around the ear and booting up the arse all the way to the ground.

It's days like today when we get unexpected wins and you thank the lord that you dragged yourself to the game.

Exactly how do you think he nullifies Baines?

How many times have they played together?

He doesn't but don't let the truth stand in the way of Dougie's agenda.

He certainly no worst than Mirallas on the back foot either as was highlighted by Mirallas running through quick sand trying to get back on multiple occasions away at Norwich.

Add in the fact that Kone doesn't even play on the left in the formation we've played the last 2 games, he's right up front.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

Basically he sums it up

How many games have they played together?

 

[Boss_Blue]

Nais? T Clevs?

Threadban him.

It would be fully deserved.

 

[Blues Harp]

Team line up: with City upcoming in three days - very understandable to save Jagielka and Deulofeu's legs.


Good team that. I see a win here.

in your dreams lad - the clown in goal and the cone ?? City will stuff us anyway....

 

[AaronTheBlue]

...saves Robles for Wednesday. Not a problem with that call.

So if robles isn't as sharp as he can be for our most important game of the season so far, just to keep the clown in goal happy, that's a good decision is it?

Get real.

 

[D410]

Kone...oh my.

 

[riddick]

...saves Robles for Wednesday. Not a problem with that call.

Let me get this straight, keepers can't play two games in a week but Barry can play two games in three days?

 

[Saint Domingo]

...saves Robles for Wednesday. Not a problem with that call.

Because goalkeepers need a rest?....

No agenda Boris, just wondering what @riddick is basing this on?

 

[Joey66]

I have watched all but two.

Our outfield defense has been poor. We allow far too many shots on target.

Robles is crap.

Looked OK in his MOTM performance v Norwich!

That's the spirit.

 

[Prevenger17]

Can we at least save the fume for after a match? Spurs haven't beaten us yet, as far as I'm aware.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Lad he not only takes away any threat we have on the left, but actively works against us by not covering at all. Upsets the balance of the side by playing too narrow, abandons his reponsibilities to put pressure on the opposition, turns like a 10 tone lorry and has the ball control of an elephant.

On the plus side, Rom likes him and he must have big cajones for keeping that barnet.

Better?

He's erratic at covering but he does track back quite a lot more than either Deulofeu or Kev, better at defensive set plays as well. Think he has good ball control when receiving the ball , better at times than Rom, although he does give away a lot of sloppy passes. Fully agree on playing narrow but that is still an issue with Mirallas who also tends to drift inside rather than stay wide.

A broken clock is right twice a day.
