100% correct at the moment! disgraceful we are, we are looking devoid of any creative idea's and very lackluster.

Sheff united started much better than us . I was hoping we'd tear into them from the start, but we've started slowly/poorly!

Ramage and Taylor should start imo a they are the best defenders we have......we should still beat sheff united though ffs if we don't then we are well and truly fucked

I'd keep our midfield players we have the right amount and they are very good too. Midfield's not a problem. We need a better (shoulden't be hard) replacement CB for Shambles (who we should wash our hands of once and for all before he costs us any more games/points etc than he already has). Another very good RB (luke young or a young up and coming would be ideal). Get Shola his operation too so we need another 'Big man' striker too. Then we have: PAV HARPER KRUL GIVEN HUNTINGDON CAR MOORE NEW CB BERNARD NEW RB TAYLOR RAMAGE BABA O'BRIEN SOLANO BUTT PATTISON ZOGGY MILNER PARKER EMRE DUFF LUQUE NEW 'big man, STRIKER THE SIB ROSSI (till jan) MARTINS DYER? (possibly) **Ameobi and Owen to come back too. The players we have on the whole are very very good, we need at least a couple of good additions (a RB , CB and a CF) then the rest is up to glenn to get them playing in the right way.

Dyers not fit, and lets not get sucked in to a Krul Hype apart from that it looks good play martins up front though Martins is about as fit as Dyer. Fit according to The Sun http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2002390...6510075,00.html I don't think Martins is though - tight hamstring.

Because this game is soo soon after the Palmero game i'd try and rest one or two who are likely to be knackered. KRUL CAR TAYLOR RAMAGE DUFF MILNER PARKER EMRE ZOGGY DYER ROSSI PAV Harper still not 100% MOORE (if not then BRAMBLE if Moore's groin has gone) BUTT LUQUE (Looked knackered so maybe rest him) SIB In case we need some height, bring him on maybe after an hour

very bad news and very bad planning by nufc as should have had that at the end of last season. Now our best team is: Harper Car Taylor Ramage Baba Milner Parker butt Zoggy Sib Duff

Difficult choice as injuries will dictate the team somewhat, but some good individual performances V Pompey may make this fairly difficult. Assuming Given and The Sib are still out i'd go: Harper Taylor Moore Ramage Duff Milner Parker Emre Zoggy Dyer Rossi Subs Pav Butt Nobby Ameobi Martins * However I fully expect Roeder to start Shambles, Nobby, Shola and Baba. ** If Bramble starts its a nightmare as Johnson tore him to shreds when we played Everton and i really don't now how he failed to score, Darren Bent will do the same and probably score.

Robert was class but Ginola was in another league.

That looks official, i take it thats the actual team. Bramble!! fuck me will we ever learn??? Thats a disgrace ! Where's Parker? Nobby instead of Duff? Well i'm fearing the worst now!! If we lose and Bramble and Nobby have bad games then Roeder is to blame imo.

Not acording to .com (strange as normally spot on) i'll edit my team then.

If the squad is expected to be:Srnicek, Krul, Harper, Carr, Babayaro, Ramage, Taylor, Bramble, Moore, Solano, Parker, N'Zogbia, Butt, Duff, Milner, Martins, Ameobi, Rossi, Dyer, Luque, Rossi expected to start! (good cause he'll probably score). I don't rate Luque but i'm half tempted to play him as Sib is out and Shola's struggling. So for me: ------------Harper Car Taylor Ramage Duff (he looked really good there the last time imo) Dyer/Milner Parker Butt Zoggy ------------------Luque ---------Rossi Subs Pav/Krul Moore Milner/Dyer Martins Shola

I like Becks, good player, grafter, good at set pieces etc and would like him here however doubt very much he'll end up here and i woulden't be absolutely gutted if he didn't. He would be a luxuary player that we are not desperate for. Top signings for me would be Luke young from charlton, a top center back and then a 'big man' striker too if Shola's off for his op ( why the F*** he didn't have it in the summer??) .

I'd love Shearer in with speed as assistant. As for Ranieri i'd rather have Roeder. The tinker man would not be good for us lovely bloke that he is.

I'd love it to be shearer! no experience big rik i know but think if anyone can sort us out it'd be him, he'd take no shit have instant respect and knows the club better than anyone. How much were the results last year (the good ones after Souness left) down to him? Now he's gone they seem to have gone down hill more than a tad!! Its a gamble yes as any manager is (that we could realistically get anyway) one imo we have to take if he'd agree to come.

It hasn't quite hapened for Martins yet but this is not through lack of effort or heart, he seems poised to turn the corner soon, its certainly too soon to write him off imo. Unlike Luque who's effort appears mimimal and has no pace or grit i'd certainly stick with Martins for now and if his head drops stick Rossi on. Martins though just needs a game where things go our way and he scores a couple of goals and he'll come good imo.

RATINGS HARPER 6.5 - good but didn't have an awfull lot to do DUFF 8 - Amazingly great at LB brealing forward well and linking up well! TAYLOR 7 - One or two slips but got away with it, otherwise very good! RAMAGE 9 - Pretty much faultless, very solid if he's have scored he'd have a 10 CAR 7 - Not a Car fan but good game organization seemed good. MILNER 7 Decent but nothing all that fantastic. PARKER - 7 see Milner EMRE 6 - picked up a few knocks early on and struggled with them before being taken off. ZOGGY 8 - looked back to his best and getting better before being Subbed, also got stuck in MARTINS 7 Full of effort and graft. SIB 7 - Got clattered alot and pounced to score Subs But - 7 Decent shift Ameobi - 6 Nothing bad nothing all that good either

GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE SIB!!!!!!

Really like Taylor, attacking the corners!!! Martins!!!!.......... off the line......... Duff close too ! Nobby on for Zoggy WTF!!!!! No way Zoggy was looking great linking up with Duff and looked one of our best chances of a goal !!!! Gutted Glenn you dick!!! zoggy looking better and better as time went on. He's be great the more we play him imo. Glenn being weak and bowing to the senior players imo Martins again..... saved!!

That's my biggest problem. They're quick to get up to support Kezman, but we're not quick enough to get up to support Martins. Agreed they defend well and when attacking flood the box with options. We have defended well tonight ton give the lads there due's, Duff looking particularly good oddly enough at LB. up front we are a bit short of idea's , maybe even more so now emre's gone off clutching his back. A draw would be fair imo right now. Still not good enough by us, not terrible but we should be creating alot more.

HT taylor with a awesome bullett header just wide, he looked gutted when the whistle blew that he hadn't put it in. taylor has made one mistake taht he 's got away with but other than that Taylor ramage partnership looks sound so far, also duff looking fantastic as a LB imo fenerbache looking a very dangerous team with some really good players (i.e. tuncay, appiah, Alex, Edu) defend as a team and break very very quickly as a team, very dangerous on the break!! Don't want to speak to soon or jinx us but never rated Kezman who is there lone striker ( although midfielders flood forward quickly when they are in possesion. Hoping whatever Roeder does at HT is more effective than whatever he did against Bolton.

looking good too there so far too getting forward alot and seeing a fair bit of the ball

TUNCAY is playing on their left! Prediction: Car either gets sent off or gets skinned multiple times! Our line up's interesting with Duff at LB, quite brave by Roeder. Thank God Bramble's not starting!!

From the squad availiable (like many i can't understand why Bernard isn't fit yet). Krul Milner Taylor Ramage Baba Duff Parker Emre Zoggy Ameobi Martins Subs ***** Harper Car Moore Nobby Butt Pattison Sibierski If Bramble starts sack Roeder!! If Nobby starts then Glenn hasn't got what it takes imo. Looking foward to seeing if Tuncay is as good as the last few times i've seen him (always thought he's class and we should buy him). This is him a few years back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzJ4C7DO0q8

Knew we should have gone for Andy Johnson!! People were saying £8.5 m for him is expensive. Maybe so ......£10m for Martins!!
