Holden McGroin 5015 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Yeah, he basically said both played well but Mike actually DID play well . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinofbeans 87 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Willamson/Campbell is a decent defensive pairing IMO. Not the quickest like but their reading of the game should make up for it a bit. 3 / 5 at the back might suit us away from home too. Would certainly suit Coloccini. Collocini in front of back four instead of Smith maybe. He couldnt do a worse job It might suit Nolan better too a player that lacks spatial awareness in front of the back 4, and who fanny's around on the ball. thats collocini. Nolans not a holding player, he can't tackle. and his passings not that great. other than that they are fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 6305 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I bet Mike felt good about the manager complimenting his play, until that is, he heard Perch getting similar praise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13895 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Williamson is really solid so I'm fairly happy with him signing a long term deal. Bolton aside - we've had a great defensive start to the season and this is largely down to consistency on Mike/Colo's part. Plus he'll be getting paid fuck all. Lots of mackems reading by the look of it. Sad cunts. (Both played in the 5-1 destruction lest you forget! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12495 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 He's been solid glad he's on a long deal, Ranger is raw but hopefully could turn into a decent player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13895 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Ranger is 19 - lots of people wrote Carroll off when he was 19 so it's worth giving him time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 6 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Nice to see players signing long deals. We should b looking to loan out Ranger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 707 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I think there's a lot of potential in Ranger and he played well when he came on against Chelsea. Very glad to see him given a new contract. Williamson is decent as well and has contributed to our strong start to the season, bit of a long contract but I doubt he'll be on much, so good on him as well.

Guest alex Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Nice to see players signing long deals. We should b looking to loan out Ranger. Should be playing him, given the other options, tbh. Ideally he'd be out on loan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia 0 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I'd give Ranger a chance. He's young, he's got the makings of a decent striker, he's clearly got a lot of self belief (that overhead against Arsenal ) and most important of all I think he'll be the best partner for Carroll. Unlike Shola & Lovenkrands he seems willing to chase the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Bramble or Williamson? Fuck me you'd have to have a season ticket on the sunshine bus to prefer the former. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flair 0 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Sunderland fans should fuck off back under their rocks, just like after the 5-1. After the 3-0 defeat of Chelsea, they are lapping it up. Fact remains though, they are as good as Cher Lloyd's eyebrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12495 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Just had a quick spy on the mackem forum and they have 2 threads about this, I'm really unsure why it's seen as funny Williamson barely puts a foot wrong in any game he plays fair enough he's no world beater but he's better than every single centre back they have at the club and Ranger is a decent young prospect. You lot signed a player we all recognised as totally braindead and chucked away for nowt as a £5m signing who is probably on more than Williamson's new deal. One of them even laughed when one lad had the sense to say Williamsons better than mensah fuck me how is that even up for dispute? Like I said before it's good news 2 decent players who wont be on astronomical wages tied down for a while you have to tie people down to these long deals now because they can arrange contracts with other clubs, buy out their contracts etc with so much time remaining on them now.

Problem Child 0 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Five and a half years! What’s that all about? Fair enough if you’ve paid £30m for a proven top level performer and are trying to make sure he doesn’t bugger off for free in couple of years. However for a mediocre centre half with half season’s PL experience and kid who still has it all to prove what’s the point? Could it be a strategy/gamble to secure players on cheap salaries while all the high earners leave as their contracts expire over the next two or three seasons?

Gejon 2 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I don't get why people are querying the contract length, he will no doubt be on sensible wages, will be at worst very good back up and if needed I am sure we wouldn't struggle to find a buyer. As for Ranger I think the lad has a lot of potential, he is raw as fuck but has some very good attributes. Needs more confidence in front of goal but at the start of last season Carroll didn't look like he was going to be much more than a target to hold the ball up.
