Saints boy in Leeds Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 (edited) IMO there are a few positives to take from today's game, Davis, Morgan, Lovren, Adam and Chambers look good, so in that respect its good. The others in the side did ok (jay rod, cork, lambert to a degree) but the others for me confirmed that they have had their time with the club and should be pushed or moved on. I think we all know the crack with who's good enough at this level and who's not, I'm just hoping the board / manager do too and will act in Jan. For me Fox, Jos, Gaston and Gazza are not up to standard, I'd give Osvaldo the rest of the season to see if he's going to cut it but would still like to see another striker to come in as Ricky may not feature much next season. So in Jan for me we need at least 1 quality CB, cover for Shaw as he's constantly out of the side, and we need to ship Gaston out too, he may well have a good touch and a few tricks but that doesn't matter if you give the ball away by lazy passes or getting pushed off the ball and take too long on the ball as he does. I thank them for their service but its time for them to move on, if the management don't look to replace them in Jan we may as well kiss goodbye to a top 8 finish.

Saint_clark Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 Ramirez looked the most likely to make something happen after he came on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint lard Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 Imagine Ramirez and Banega together with Osvaldo and Lallana. Now that would be creative. never know,might just happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 As much as I think we need to replace the likes of Jos, Fox etc - I don't think that will happen until the summer. I think the club are hell bent on promoting the youth, so before any signings we'll see the likes of Reed, Gallagher, Simms etc get game time. I don't think we'll do much, even though I think we need to. So i'm not going to get my hopes up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 Reckon we've already spent this year's budget. Unless someone gets sold it'll prob have to wait till summer and, you know, I'm cool with that. Edit - like clarke says innit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toomer Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 You might not see Osvaldo again as NC is not happy with him, from what I understand there was some afters in the tunnel at Newcastle and Osvaldo lashed out and conected hence the charge being brought against him.

danner Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 For gods sake i just don't get the way Gaston has been left on the bench for the last 6 months. Come on manager, do some man management and get him firing away and in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 Disagree about Lambert playing ok. Thought he was poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 Disagree about Lambert playing ok. Thought he was poor. He's been pretty awful for a while now, seems to boil down to when he went away with England and picked up that 'injury'. To me, it looks like he struggles to jump or hold off anyone. He's never been mobile, but looks to be playing with a shed load of timber on his back at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted 22 December, 2013 Share Posted 22 December, 2013 NC knew what he was getting when he signed Osvaldo though. Hence why he was sold, I'm told. He had a 'name' at his Italian club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes had a poor season tbf, doesn't contribute enough at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
