  1. It also depends on money being put on by punters, all it takes is a few punters who think they have inside knowledge to bet big and odds will be dropped. Everyone on here bet 1 pound on all 3 to stay and watch the odds drop.
  2. 20 mill, is a good deal for both parties however, for me we need to prove were wanting the best deal for us and hold out for 25 million, if we do, then Shaw would go for 25million or more as well. 50mill from the sales of these two players would allow us to spend 35 mill of this on 2 maybe 3 quality players, while settling any debts we have for training ground. However even if we have no money all we have to do is copy Everton this season, keep your best players bar maybe one replace them and then get a few free transfers and loans in, to maintain a top 8 side.
  3. Lambert is gonna still be the main man, if SG can learn from him that will be great, Lambo has had a ok season but yet his stats say he has had a great one, double double as they would say in basketball.
  4. Having another child half way through September means i wont be, however il go to every home and away game until there born, hoping it will be 5-6, then maybe some crap games in the new year, big games do not always appeal to me, i am watching Saints not the other team, and to be honest most teams in this league are better then the games i went to in L1, Yeovil Luton Exeter etc.
  5. Agreed, im sure Liverpool didn't look at Rodgers poor management at Reading and average management at Watford and think he would be crap despite the good work at Swansea.

    Clyne

    THIS. Chambers is a good player but where we lack pace we need someone who is quick at RB, if we sign a pacey winger then having a slower RB is fine as we wont really on him to push on and get the ball in the box, he gets caught out at times because hes bombing forward and cant get back in time, however for when teams play a big CF who goes to the wing backs to beat them in the air, Chambers does a much better job.
  7. This works both ways Liverpool will be in trouble they cant really sign the 3-4 players they need to help there squad be good enough to compete in CL Prem and other cups, Everton will be in Europe and there need to replace there 2 attacking loan stars or buy them, which wont be cheap. Should we keep our current squad and add some free agents loans and maybe 2 major signings one being a winger and another being a CB, costing 8-10 mill each, i can not see why we cant compete with the top 6 and have a good cup run maybe a semi final. They club will make loads more money this season should they make the kit slightly cheaper as well 45 is more then enough 50 is a joke, with the 10% off for ST holders it makes the shirt slightly more affordable. Its just a shame ST prices rose again ok not loads but enough making me consider can i really afford it along with the match day cost of travel and food.
  8. We lack depth to be able to compete in comps, look how bad we look now Jay Rod is injured, if we can sell off the deadwood and bring in 3-4 good players who can come off the bench next season we can have some more rotation throughout and compete in the League cup FA cup and top 8 finish in the prem.
  9. Personally we have Sam as a good 3rd choice striker for now, i would rather us develop him and sign a pacey winger with a decent cross so we have Lallana and another providing for Jay Rod Sam and Lambo.
  10. Vince Papale was a Eagles fan who played for his Eagles, being a Eagles fan i love this film, you can make something similar with SRL, playing lower leagues and working part time to playing full time and playing for England something that could be done specially if he goes on and scores in the World cup.
  11. Being a Philly sports fan as well, i would much hope off the field we were more like the Eagles, pretty much everyone in the city supporting the team and the most passionate and noisy fans in football.
  12. Much needed win to stop a bad run of results and take us in the bottom half. This win has pretty much secured top 10 now its to fight it out with NUFC for 8th, excuse the pun pards. Teams will stay up on 38 points this year with a few poor teams staying up meaning we should really be able to maintain form from this season and have a top 10 finish each year despite what happens with MoPo and if KL does not spending loads of money.
  13. Our aim this season was to finish higher then last season and push for a top 8 finish, with a postion between 8th and 12th being a ok/good season. I said 11th or 10th this season and anything higher would be great, however after the great start we all raised expectations to top 10 and finish as a min and ideally top 8, however with Osvaldo incident and not signing anyone in Jan, i said top 10 with a bit more blooded youngsters and helping us build a good squad for next season to finish top 8 or higher. If MoPo stays and he is allowed 2 top quality signings again this summer and 1-2 squad players i feel we are gonna be in Evertons postion next season.
  14. Its a massive step from 8th/9th postion to 4th, for me we should of gone for it, however all will be forgiven if we finish 8th or 7th, maybe europa league qualification will be ok next season but this season is too soon, i personally think UEFA will review it the summer and change the format as loads of teams dislike the format.
  15. He is not playing well for the whole 90 mins however for someone playing crap most of the game il take these stats. Goals 9 ( 8 prem 1 Fa Cup) Assists 7
  16. But there not in the postion we are, with great training facilities youth academy and a chairman that drove the club forward with a great team to build on, they have a rich owner just not any of these also a slightly smaller fan base, they have money they spent quite a bit this season.
  17. I normally dislike Bruce after he claimed sides like Southampton are punching why cant Hull comment, when were a bigger club and have better facilities in place, however great touch by him to admit that.
  18. Clyne hes a better one on one defender and has pace. Chambers has a better first touch and aerial ability, but gets exposed when people with pace run at him, also his lack of pace means when we try to counter it affects us, Chambers should only play when we play big teams like Stoke WHUFC etc, for me it Clyne plays 30 league games and Chambers plays 8 and cup games unless injury means he plays more.
  19. Lambert back to him old self now to keep this form up and score another 6-7 goals and assts to help us finish 9th or 8th and a cup Semi Final or Final.
  20. Lallana Lambert are pretty much secured unless Carroll goes on a goal scoring run to stop Carroll. Jay Rod Shaw and Cork may all get call ups but would need injuries to players like Baines or Cole for Shaw Cleverly and Barkley for Cork AOC and Wellbeck for Jay Rod. and would struggle to see playing time in Brazil.
  21. MoPo deffo had influence on Osvaldo, dont bull **** us on that, yea NC agreed it but it was not 100% him, fee was too high maybe he can be to blame for that ? should of paid no more then 12 mill for him, 15 mill is mental.
  22. If you 18 and not knocking on the door does not mean your not good enough and wont make it, alot of time its positioning issue, strength and experience of game situations vs top older players.
  23. Draw as benefited the winners of this and Evertons game, winner of them games should have a great chance of a SF at Wembley. We out classed Sunderland 1st 30 mins and most of the game if we start Clyne and have Victor fit we should win this if there schedule prevents them from no more then 48-72 hour rest between games.
  24. Anyone at Home or a championship lower league side specially if their in or getting dragged into the relegation battle going to league one is worse then prem to championship.
