Great Minds think alike! :yes:

Its a great article, well thought out and written. Some people can say its not how we saw Rafa's team last year, but you have to take into account the whole of Rafas reign and then yes the articule is right. We did play some dross last season, yes it may have been time to go, but I have never felt this way about a Liverpool manager since Souness. I respect Hodgeson for what he has achieved in the game, but I don't think he is the man for the job. Christ that was hard to say! I was optimistic at the start of the Season, Joe Cole, a pacey (tho maybe not a winger) wideman and a new manager giving the team a lift. I was made up after the Arsenal game. But since then we have been served up some dross. A win against West Brom (who i don't think deserved to lose) is all we have to show for it. Christ the best I have seen us play this season is Carra testimonial, but hey lets go back to the 80's and like derrickt says, tall players hoof up work of the big man. Lose the ball and don't worry about trying to get the ball back just get back! Reminds me of the Norway side in the early 90's. Sorry rant over.

Great site, If i could rep i would!

I presume he has joined Bristol City due to him and his old high school love live in Chudleigh down in Devon. He just has to whip up the M5 to Bristol take hime about an hour. Besides City could be challenging for promotion.

I think that Roy wants a smaller squad and if need be to give some of the youngster a chance. I reckon we would be looking at a left back, Masch Replacement and a Striker. I know Soto is going Cavalieri if he can find a club, I also have a sneaky feeling Skrtel may be off as well.

Soto has been told he can leave as well.

Purslow is Diouf? well that explains why they are both *******!

Exactly, but have you seen another professional footballer packing as much weight as Mr Parkin?

Mancini seems to be a bit Keegan esque in his transfer policy. Mancini: MMMM i have money to spend what do i need ah yes another Midfielder. Keegan: MMMM i have money to spend what do i need ah yes another Striker.

Thanks was unsure hence the question mark.

Still not as big as Jon Parkin! :P

How much have Man City spent this summer so far? Boateng £20mill? Silva £27 mil Toure £25?

Roman is Jewish and they are very loyal to their own.

The Portsmouth Game was definatley one of our best games last season. It all depends on what Roy does, I have been trying to look at his previous teams. Is he a manager who picks a formation and fits the players in or is he a manager who looks at what he players he has a mould them into a formation. Doing a little research he does seem to like a flexible 4-4-2. At least one normally two ball winners in the middle of the park and at least one out and out wingers. Can't seem to find him playing 3 or 5 at the back. Maybe with the Swiss in 96?

Nothing because thats what paid off Rafa and got us Roy.
