Stop with the "Your Man" bullshit it's boring now.

100% saw that shirt last year on a site, not sure where but I recognise it cause its gash
-
Forgot about Soderberg ( my mistake ) Rhodes would be back-up but has potential to be first choice with more PL experience. The guy is awesome.

The internet when our current shirts were due to come out. They make a few prototypes for the club.

That toon shirt was doing the rounds last year

This was before European Qualification was looking like a likely outcome. I don't think we have a lot of players we don't need. Certainly after Smith and Lovenkrands contracts are up that figure is lessened. Hoy Nile Ranger as well and there's not really any more players that you'd want to lose. Best and Perch aren't great, but they'll be on low wages, work hard and will listen to the manager. They're the type of players you want to have if you need to call on them in an emergency. Even Obertan has a place as a genuinely quick player - we can only hope that he becomes a more intelligent player. Then we have our up and coming players in Vuckic, Ferguson, Abeid, Sam Ameobi, Inman, Tavernier who we should be looking to get more game time for with an increased schedule. The quality will come in brining a new central defender to play alongside Coloccini and a new legitimate left back to faciliate Santon's move to the right. A front 6 of Ba, Cisse, Jonas, Ben Arfa, Cabaye and Tiote is already strong. I think we should keep Perch and Obertan. Best seems hit and miss for me and would rather have someone younger like a Jordan Rhodes. I can't see Forster staying when he has had a few seasons playing first team football. We got Elliot and Soderberg, I think Harper will retire.

The club have said they want a smaller squad with more quality. We have a lot of players we don't need. Fortunately a lot of them are coming to the end of their contracts. Everyone seems pretty split on the Simpson argument, I don't think he has the quality to be in a top 5/6 team and I don't think he offers anything going forward. I know a couple of you say "he has been the most consistent player in the last three years" one of those in the Championship, one of those we thought we'd be fighting for relegation and this year we were hoping on a top half finish. My opinion mag to grid get rid.

That looks brilliant! Not sure on this. Its bethesda so I'm thinking Fallout/Elder scrolls so must be awesome. Trailer is weird

A couple of clips but not a full 90 mins. Going by what Pardew is saying though there is nothing between him and Simpson in training. The guy has played over 50 games now on loan too. and simpsons played more than that in the PL training is one thing, his PL experience will make a world of difference in a match Honestly, hes played nearly every game for us for 3 years and people are desperate to get rid of him Personally for me he is a "good" player mate but I don't think he is a "quality" player. Santon is 21 and he already shows signs of becoming ten fold what Simpson now is. Simpson gives nothing going forward and his crossing is woeful. If were a club seriously looking at establishing ourselves as a top 5/6 club then we need someone with a bit more quality. Just my opinion mate.

Now starting. Got it for £25. Heard there are problems with the ending...I'll soon find out.

Have to admit I love the AC Milan home shirts. Last one I got was in Afghan...lasted 5 washes lol.

Personally I don't think Simpson is a quality RB. He offers nothing going forward and gets himself into trouble at times. He wont sign a new deal and we could get a couple million for him, RB rankings and stats mean nothing, they just mean he has had more to do. As I've said before I'd rather see Santon on that side with Tavernier as a reserve option.

Doesn't matter if we have more games we can still only have 25 bods. If you look mate we have over 30 at the minute that's why in my opinion I would let a lot of average players go to free up some wages to get in better quality. You dont need to involve everyone in it, you can leave some under 21's(?) etc out of it, all you have to do is reach the 4 players homegrown by the club and then 4 more on top of it who have been homegrown in England then you can add whoever you want in So if there under 21 they don't count towards the 25 man squad but can still play?Just read up on rules and yeah if there under 21 we can have as many as we like.
-
Exactly, we would be fucked if Krul got injured selling Forster and Hafper I can't see him wanting to stay and be a back-up keeper for us when he can play as the number 1 for Celtic potentially player Champions League/Europa League football every year. Tbh I think that is why we signed Elliot.
-
That's pretty much my opinion too, however what I want Pardew to do and what I think he will do don't match up. If we sign Pieters but not a right back then Simpson will be his first choice going into the season and it will take an injury for Santon to get a chance. Santon can play on either side. I reckon if Simpson leaves then he will switch to the right with Pieters (if we sign him) going on the left. With that you then have Tavernier and Ferguson as backup on either side.

Hi guys, As the title says who would you want out of our squad this summer and who would you want in to replace them (if they need replacing). I know some people have alluded to the fact we need a "bigger" squad but we can only have 25 in the squad and we currently have over 30 "first team" players. I personally think we just need to replace some of what we have now with more quality. Just a bit of fun and be interesting to see what you think. For me it would be.. OUT - Steve Harper OUT - Fraser Forster OUT - Danny Simpson OUT - Danny Guthrie OUT - Peter Lovenkrands OUT - Xisco OUT - Alan Smith OUT - Mike WIlliamson OUT - Leon Best IN - Erik Pieters IN - Sigurdsson IN - Jan Vertonghen IN - Jordon Rhodes Personally I think if we went into the new season with them four and them nine gone I would be happy. If we got Pieters I could see Santon switching over to the right. Sigurdsson to sit between Tiote and Cabaye, Vertonghen to add a bit more competition for Taylor at CB and Rhodes because he is young but also capable to step up to the Premiership. With what we already have I believe that the outgoing would free up alot of wages and places in the squad. As I said just a bit of fun and would be interesting to see what you think.

Yeah but that was a one off

Aaron Hughes for me. Should of kept hold of him.
