Barry Sanchez Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Why did we not sign better defenders in the summer when we had the chance? If we go down we will all point to that, if we can see it why cant Cortese?
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Why did we not sign better defenders in the summer when we had the chance? If we go down we will all point to that, if we can see it why cant Cortese? Cos he`s not an expert like we are..
Barry Sanchez Posted 24 February, 2013 Author Posted 24 February, 2013 Cos he`s not an expert like we are.. Pray tell what club has he coached or played for?
Saint Garrett Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 What's wrong with Yoshi and Clyne, I think they're quite good.
110_Persaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Yoshida's been brilliant. Fonte, Shaw and Clyne all been quality as well. Only problem is that our backup are as second rate as you can get.
CanadaSaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Why did we not sign better defenders in the summer when we had the chance? If we go down we will all point to that, if we can see it why cant Cortese? We haven't lost too many lately but one bad result and threads like this will infest the forum for a few days.
Crazy Diamond Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Wtf is going on with forren? Not played a game in yolks, probably not fit enough. Starting to feel like a token signing though...
Thedelldays Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Not played a game in yolks, probably not fit enough. Starting to feel like a token signing though... maybe see why liverpool only wanted to give him a trial..
Crazy Diamond Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 maybe see why liverpool only wanted to give him a trial.. Possibly. If he's good enough for Liverpool, he's good enough for us, one might think...
110_Persaint Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Forren's become another Mayuka. £3.5m to warm the bench.
Thedelldays Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Possibly. If he's good enough for Liverpool, he's good enough for us, one might think... well, we dont know if he was good enough for liverpool, he never went for a trial and there could have been as much chance of them saying...no thanks surely he is good but seems odd when we really needed someone to come in sooner
Saint Garrett Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Been with us a month now, he should be fit enough to play by now. Wouldn't be surprised to see Fonte start instead of Jos against QPR, or maybe Forren.
Andre Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Fonte on the bench ahead of Forren after seven weeks out through injury said it all for me. I'm not sure if he'll ever play for us, he might go straight back to Norway! Hooiveld should be out now, Fonte back in, and maybe we'll get Forren on as a sub and he can finally start earning his wages.
Smirking_Saint Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Fonte, yosh, clyne and shaw all good enough. Forren, well we will see We have pretty much signed a new back 5 which begs the question why you are over reacting ?
Graffito Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Why did we not sign better defenders in the summer when we had the chance? If we go down we will all point to that, if we can see it why cant Cortese? The elephant's still in the room so which donkeys are still on the pitch? We won't go down.
tajjuk Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Yawn. Our defence was good enough against the champions last week, We had a bad day get over it.
alpine_saint Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Dont think we will go down, but if we do, we will look back at our perennial dire summer transfer window as the reason.
Dr Who? Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 If we do go down, which we will not, I will bring into question the timing of Adkins sacking!
Badger Posted 24 February, 2013 Posted 24 February, 2013 Wtf is going on with forren? Perhaps it is the Delgado factor. New manager did not sign him. The previous manager did not sign him either. But he looked good on video. Hope I am wrong of course.
adrian lord Posted 25 February, 2013 Posted 25 February, 2013 We will stay up and I think the summer window will be an interesting one indeed as Cortese and MP build up for the next stage of the Great Plan
austsaint Posted 25 February, 2013 Posted 25 February, 2013 I know it takes a big budget to bolster a side in the window like Newcastle has - but as a means to ward off relegation worries it's looking like a better model than our approach.
brmbrm Posted 25 February, 2013 Posted 25 February, 2013 Fonte, yosh, clyne and shaw all good enough. Forren, well we will see We have pretty much signed a new back 5 which begs the question why you are over reacting ? Whatever the question, the answer is that our defence is not very good really. However you package it. I think it very unlikely we will go down: we are like a mid-table side. Top half front half, bottom half defence. Best way to get better is to improve the worst bits, i.e. the defence.
ToreSF Posted 25 February, 2013 Posted 25 February, 2013 Perhaps it is the Delgado factor. New manager did not sign him. The previous manager did not sign him either. But he looked good on video. Hope I am wrong of course. Or it might be the Stig Johansen syndrome. Played well in the norwegian premier league, but hey, so would Ali Dia on a good day.
