Tooj 17 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 From watching the match so far I'd quite like us to look into signing Bong (Not just because of his name). Seems to be really good at running up and down the pitch and quite a powerful runner too. Could be a bit suspect positionally but good competition for Santon and at times if Debuchy ever gets injured or suspended Santon could be shifted to the right. No doubt it won't happen though as that would mean we'd start building a squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13877 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 You'd really hope we'll learn from the position we've put ourselves in & actually start building a team that can sustain competitiveness. I nearly pulled a muscle cringing when Pardew came out having a go at the youth players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 6188 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 You'd really hope we'll learn from the position we've put ourselves in & actually start building a team that can sustain competitiveness. Needs emphasising. Not saying it's entirely down to complacency or anything like that but Cisse regardless of the way he plays is guaranteed a starting spot at the moment. Santon is the same. With Steven Taylor out Williamson is in the same position too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 You'd really hope we'll learn from the position we've put ourselves in & actually start building a team that can sustain competitiveness. I nearly pulled a muscle cringing when Pardew came out having a go at the youth players. Was it youth players? There's a load of them the same age, around 21, who aren't delivering. That's the same age as Santon who has been one of the first names on the team sheet all season. I think some of those 'kids' do need a rocket up their arse if they aren't busting a gut to grasp the opportunity. If it was aimed at younger lads like streete and Campbell then it would be a cock move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Agreed, nothing cringeworthy about it. There's an enormous amount of rubbish spouted about what managers say and what players need to hear in private/public. 'He needs an arm around the shoulder' etc tends to be nonsense as its only sometimes true. People are more complex than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Just about half way through it though. Ample time to sign a new striker and two centre backs. It needs to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene_Clark 12 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 To sum up, we're selling Ben ArfA, Coloccini, Krul & Santon, with Cabaye, Cisse & Debuchy (who's shit anyway) going in the summer when we get relegated. There's non-one coming in to replace any of these departures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 70 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) Not looking cushty right now, but deals are being worked on apparently. Personally think it's gonna be Ohthemwingseh. Thuvin and DeJong won't be moving till the summer. Been offerred Graham for £3m. We really need at least 2 players a Fwd and a CD. S'hamton and Qpr are building momentum and even with beating Reading this looks like a long fight. Edited January 15, 2013 by Park Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19837 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 We don't really do squad building. Tends to be one in, one out as far as the first team is concerned. I'm struggling to remember the last time we had two left-footed left backs on the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Would definitely take a relatively local lad Graham at £3m who can score in this league over an unproven at premiership level Remy who would prioritise salary over everything else.

Kid Dynamite 5937 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 He scored 24 league goals in the Championship and got his team promoted. He then scored 12 in his first season in the Premier League, more than Defoe and Suarez. £3mil is a bargain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him signed up, he'll fit right in with Pardew's gambling ring. Edited January 15, 2013 by Anorthernsoul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
